eddievegas — Tue, 03 Jan 2012 15:00:05 +0000

If you like slowly developing melodies and repetitive beats in a mixture of ambient and glitch the you have to give Naderi a listen. His newly released 4-track EP, consists of two tracks with singer Line Gottsche Dyrholm, providing a brief but wonderful journey into a universe of glitchy and airy electronica.

Custom Skyrim Nord Helm

eddievegas — Sun, 01 Jan 2012 17:07:33 +0000

I have not played much of Skyrim, but many peeps at Machinima love this game so when I had this forwarded on to me I had to share. This is a pretty awesome steampunk influenced Skyrim Nord helmet created by Rawr Bomb. Check out his design process photos at Flickr . It’s a shame there is no way to buy this.

60beat GamePad

eddievegas — Sat, 31 Dec 2011 17:04:23 +0000

Let’s face it, playing games on your iPad/iPhone sucks. If you call swiping on a screen a gaming experience, you must have a lot of fun when you’re cleaning your ass. 60beat is now trying to solve this problem with GamePad, a PS3 like controller that allows you to play games on iOS devices like a bauce. The problems.. it currently supports 2 games and the controller costs $50 bucks. I would consider buying this once I get an iPad, and more games are supported. Until then, I will continue to game on my PC/XBOX/PS3 the way nature intended it.

Guitar + Atari 2600 = gAtari

Sure this device isn’t really a guitar, but cTrix is lugging around a whole console and a few effects pedals to play music. Watch the video below to see cTrix shred with his inventive device.

Robot Pro Wrestling

eddievegas — Thu, 29 Dec 2011 15:00:27 +0000

This reminds me of the Real Steel commercial (cause no one went to see the movie). Watching these robots go at it was more interesting than any recent human boxing event. The robot ref giving the 3 count at the end is hilarious. To watch more, go to Robot Dreams.

Yelle – A Cause Des Garcons

eddievegas — Wed, 28 Dec 2011 23:25:15 +0000

What is there to say? A pseudo-mulleted triad? Frolicking? Candy-colored high-tops? A younger version of me in this vid? I can’t even being to wrap my brain around this choreography. Check it.

If you are into iconic video game art, check out Joseph Harrold’s work. His less is more approach really shines as is evident with the God of War and Metal Gear Solid prints below. These prints and a slew of others can be purchased via Etsy for $20 a pop.

Lulu Rouge: Bless You

eddievegas — Tue, 27 Dec 2011 17:18:34 +0000

It appears that all the music I have been listening to is related in some way. My new obsession is Lulu Rouge, a group made up of DJ T.O.M. and DJ Buda. If you dig the Trentemoller sound, you will absolutely enjoy this album. As a matter of fact, DJ T.O.M has been Trentemøller’s partner for the last 3 years. The Bless You album is a few years old, but this is a recent find that I will be listening to for a little while.

VCMG Release Spock EP

eddievegas — Sun, 25 Dec 2011 22:20:31 +0000

If you grew up listening to Depeche Mode, then the reunion of Vince Clark (Erasure, Yazoo, Depeche Mode) and Martin Gore (Depeche Mode) should get your panties in a bunch. They have teamed up to form VCMG and have just released their first EP called Spock. Being that I am into minimal dance tracks, I’m really enjoying the hell out of this song.

The album (title to be announced soon) was produced by Vince Clarke and Martin L. Gore and will be released in the spring of 2012.
