Chrome Daydream
Chrome stars, jelly hearts and holographic colour. A nod to the glossy, optimistic graphics of the early web.
The notebook changes its cover every month. Each one takes its cues from a different corner of music, paper and internet culture. Explore the collection below.
Haunted Notebook is here through November 1. Coffee Shop Confessional takes over November 2.
Chrome stars, jelly hearts and holographic colour. A nod to the glossy, optimistic graphics of the early web.
Cassette ribbons, red-pen hearts and pink paper. For anyone who ever put too much thought into a mixtape.
Vines wind around the speakers and flowers take over the margins. Spring gets the volume knob.
Pixel ghosts, cherries and electric blue meet the notebook doodles. A little arcade cabinet in the margins.
The pink splashes, coffee ring and black doodles that started it, with the volume turned up. The notebook's home colours.
Peel-and-stick chaos: skulls, butterflies, hearts and neon lightning. Think of the back of your favourite battered laptop.
Torn tickets, halftone fragments and bright scraps. A cover that borrows the rough edges of a wall full of gig flyers.
Black ink, torn paper and acid-yellow sparks. A love letter to photocopied zines and the flyers you kept after the show.
Stars, speakers, tape and every loud colour at once. Back-to-school stationery with absolutely no restraint.
Moths, little ghosts and crimson ink creep through the black flourishes. The notebook has a late-night alter ego.
Coffee rings, headphones and warm paper. A cover for the long walk home and the track you play again when you get there.
Moons, moths and constellations spill across midnight-blue ink. The margins drift into space; the music keeps going.

Today continued to paint a picture of the new iPad 2 in Canada as technology blogs are discussing the possibilities that Apple will announce the second-gen iPad 2 within the next month in Canada. Kevin Rose, the founder of Digg, believes based on reliable information that this release is imminent: I have it on good authority that Apple will be announcing the iPad 2 in the next "3-4 weeks", possibly Tuesday February 1st. The iPad 2 will feature a retina display and front/back cameras. There seems to be uncertainty on the details of the display, some sources believe that the...

Hey there everybody, I just listened to a band that I really think you might be interested in. They're called Riot 87 and they're a self-described combination of Drum 'n' Bass, Dubstep and Rock music. The group is comprised of Darko Andric (producer, DJ) and Igor Despotovic (guitarist). They both hail from Kragujevac, Serbia but they are rocking sound-waves all across the world with their energetic blend of dance and rock. If rock and hip-hop were the previous decades big thing, dance and rock is going to be the next future-music combination. Their latest release, SERBIAN BASSLINE EP, is their...

I just recently caught on to this Serbian duo Riot 87 and wanted to share this great track as soon as possible. I really like how they are combining rock with drum and bass, great party music and a great take on Metric. Metric - Gold Guns Girls (RIOT 87 Remix) by riot87music

Welcome to coldplaysucks.com for more Apple Logic tutorials check out: http://www.coldplaysucks.com/tutorials/logic-tutorials/ It has been several weeks since i've posted a tutorial here, but I swear; I have a good excuse! I've been working on a number of tracks and also getting ready to start another semester at Carleton University. But now on to the audio tutorial. I noticed one thing that many people are searching for is a way to simply do a "fade in" or "fade out" on their audio in Logic. Coming from other DAW's you might expect a lot of clicking around and creating automation, but there's...

Not too long ago I created a remix to this song in an attempt to win a remix competition. I didn't win, but it was just another case of remixing something so well they simply could not pick it. Download my running up remix on noiseporn here! I think I did a pretty good job, maybe even improved it a bit. Clearly these folks are either amateurs or trying on purpose to be bad, just check out their music video . . .what a joke.

Today the new deadmau5 album drops in the UK, tomorrow here in the new world. I can help but wish I could get it today, I'm surprised Beatport doesn't offer a pre order service for their music downloads. Pre-sales for this mau5 album would no doubt be huge. I bet since its a download company they figured nobody would buy a pre order download, but I sure would!
