      <title>New developments</title>
      <link>http://virb.com/magpieindustries/posts/text/177402</link>
      <description><![CDATA[New glitchy experimental tracks coming soon, stay tuned. Just bought myself a korg electribe emx-1 and a new laptop, and have recently been lost in the combinations and possibilities of these machines. Stuff is starting to come together though. My dream is to catch that glitchy spastic circuit bent sound, but shape it into more listenable or danceable tunes... and of course, it's all gotta be played live :)

Before the record industries appeared, before there were cd's and tapes and vinyl, the musicians only played live gigs. Any time you wanted music, you found some musicians. I'm hoping to see a return to that style (maybe a long shot!) Sure, the record industries will have you buy mp3s, and will sell them to you through your internet and your laptops and your phones in an instant, but I for one don't want to pay the record industries. I want to pay the artists that come and perform. The ones that care about how they sound, and not about massmarket digital content delivery systems.

A war is currently raging over the distribution rights for music; the old record company mafia types trying to strangle a freely distributable mp3 culture, but the real advancements in modern music culture are not yet being widely published. The technology for creating live electronic music is flourishing, and along with it, the hope of returning to the original distribution channels of music; listening to the musicians performing their art.]]></description>

      <title>Quick sk-1 jam</title>
      <link>http://virb.com/magpieindustries/posts/text/58888</link>
      <description><![CDATA[We had a brief jam yesterday and came up with this quick song. Glory to The Birth of Jesus. I've just uploaded it, and it should be up there in the player for your listening pleasures. <a href="http://">dast</a> plays bass guitar, and I play the drums (a modded Casio sk-1) and keys.  

The sk-1 is fed through a distortion pedal, with the rhythmic glitches created by some circuit bends. We recorded the whole thing in a single take and then layered up a couple of quick extra circuit bent noises. There's a touch of supatrigga there aswell. I guess the song could do with some more detailed sequencing, but I was getting tired :)

      <title>Introductions</title>
      <link>http://virb.com/magpieindustries/posts/text/56325</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Hey ho, time for a quick introduction! I'm an experimental electronic musican based in Norrköping, Sweden. Building my own electronic music equipment takes up most of my free time. I enjoy listening to everything from ambient to experimental musics, as long as it's weird, it's good :)    I've just signed up to Virb as you can see.

If you are into weird sound, electronic madness, circuit bending and so, feel free to add me into your friends list or leave a message somewhere. ]]></description>
