<p>so, making music for LSDj is fun. but after a while you start to wish you could<em> “play"</em> the gameboy software as a musical instrument as opposed to composing music in its tracker style interface. that's where the LSDj keyboard comes in. the idea is, the keyboard sends messages though the gameboy linkport to LSDj. the commands that can be sent vary from playing/stopping notes or chains or tables, un/muting channels, in/decreasing octaves, switching instruments, navigating screens, and more. <br />here's what the <a href="http://wiki.littlesounddj.com/KeyboardInterface" target="_blank">LSDj wiki</a> says about the keyboard...</p>]]></description>

<div class="inputs" style="width: 470px;"><br/><a href="http://www.iimusic.net/catalog/2009/06/nectar" target="_blank">nectar</a> by <a href="http://www.8bitpeoples.com/discography/by/phlogiston" target="_blank">phlogiston</a> - nectar is 2 EPs in one. part one, <em>Croquel Adventure</em>, continues in the chip-tune tradition of short, fun, pure NES songs. while part two, <em>HEAT</em>, transports you to an 80's vision of the distant future. the album is a tour through a vast dystopian cityscape where high-tech low-life roam the streets. and the lines between man and machine have been washed out.</div>

            <title>gameboy prosound mod</title>
            <link>https://blog.x-e.ro/gameboy_prosound_mod</link>
            <description><![CDATA[<p class="center"><a title="nintendo gameboy prosound mod" rel="shadowbox[post-113];player=img;" href="http://img.x-e.ro/i/prosound-01-clear.gameboy.jpg"><img title="nintendo gameboy prosound mod" src="http://blog.x-e.ro/ui/img/blog/uploads/prosound01.png" alt="nintendo gameboy prosound mod" width="710" height="180" /></a></p>
<p><span>today’s mod is for the original nintendo gameboy. if you want to get serious about chip tunes, whether your using </span><a href="http://littlesounddj.com/" target="_blank">lsdj</a><span> or </span><a href="http://nanoloop.com/" target="_blank">nanoloop</a><span>, the sound quality of your instrument is a priority. the stock nintendo gameboy is equipped with a single headphone jack. and if you have ever tried recording anything from that, it sounds pretty bad. thus the prosound modification was invented to add a line out jack to the gameboy.</span></p>]]></description>

<p>my pal nonfinite has <em>finally</em> released his long-awaited album entitled <strong>northbridge</strong>. listening brings you right back to your childhood (or your whole life in my case :P) sitting in front of the tv wasting the hours away playing video games an enjoying their repetitious bleep-bloop style beats. and nonfinite has his sounds on point! by using a homebrew gameboy cart called <a href="http://www.littlesounddj.com/" target="_blank">LSDJ</a> he produces his new music on old hardware, giving him that pure old skool "chip tune" sound. <a href="http://calmdownkidder.com/records/?p=11" target="_blank">grab your copy of the album here, FREE!</a> nonfinite also does custom gameboy mods, <a href="http://nonelectronics.com/" target="_blank">check out his store</a> </p>]]></description>

<p>so my parents, nina, and i went to the rock & roll hall of fame in cleveland ohio. my dad had a few vacation days, so he wanted to take a trip. i have been to the hall a few times prior, but they have such a flux of different memorabilia... so it’s never the same place. this time the featured exhibits were the doors, the clash, and warped tour. the clash exhibit had a ton of old outfits the band wore, along with old instruments, tour photos, and flyers.</p>]]></description>
