This thing looks pretty sick, i can’t imagine what I would do if I saw a DJ walk out of the booth onto the floor and continue to move the crowd with one of these….

Wacom, the tablet and touchscreen company that’s made a name for itself in graphic design circles, is about to enter the discotheque.

The entry is called Nextbeat, a music controller that lets prosumer DJs mix and manipulate their beats with a variety of touchscreen controls and a portable “pod” that docks with the main unit. In theory, it could allow DJs to leave the booth and enter the dance floor maelstrom, if they so choose.

For the last couple months I have been obsessed with a band called “The Airborne Toxic Event”. The first song I heard was called “Sometime Around Midnight”.

Check out the video and the rest of the disk you will not be disappointed.

U2′s No Line On The Horizon = Brilliant

*That’s all.  Thank you.

Nah, I’m kidding.  I got more than that to say.  I hadn’t listened to any rock in weeks before giving this a chance and I’m glad I didn’t.  I have a history with U2.  Mom’s obsessed, Dad’s obsessed and my Uncle used to be their lawyer, so I’ve listened to pretty much everything since the Joshua Tree whether I knew it or not.  Their last album, How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb had it’s epic tracks, but wasn’t that good front to back like other U2 albums.  I personally don’t think they’ve had one since “All That You Can’t Leave Behind”, but hey that’s me.  Wait, wasn’t that just before How To…?  I think so.  Anyways, it’s really awesome to hear these guys go back more towards their roots with this album.  It’s a bit harder than you’re used to with U2.  (*rhyme intended.)  So definitely check this one out when you get a chance.  It blew my mind.
