I'm here to turn the volume up.

deathboyFinished watching Hellraiser III, it was excellently crap :) I love things that reek of the 90s. You could tell from the awful font at the very start that you were about to watch some Quality.
Also, this evening, I bought iSequence for the iPod Touch (/iPhone), made a little tune on it in about 20 mins. It's good fun! Another ace toy to make musical sketches with, which I can develop into full songs later.
DeathBoy - Hypnobeat (sketch)
As I say, this was less than a half hour's noodling, uses 5 channels (the app only has 5!), and just 4 patterns, with me riding the volume levels to give it a bit of song texture / bring elements in and out.
(not my video, but a good demo)
The built in soft synth sounds are good, lots of decent lead synths, pads, basslines, etc, and some meaty drum kit noises.
In terms of sequencing, it resembles a tracker with a horizontal time graph.
So yar. Pleasant ending to a basically shit day, thanks to new software toys and awful horror movies.
Just waiting up to see if kirsten appears before I go to bed.
I shall read the next Polity book by Neal Asher, as I just finished the 1st one, Prador Moon, and quite enjoyed it.
Night night, ballbags!
