I'm excited to let you know that my new EP is out now on UK label ChordPunch!
It's called squeakyshoecore EP and you can find it in most mp3 shops now. I would really appreciate it if you would give it a review, or tweet/facebook it, do a blog post, give it a listen, or buy it.
Visit the squeakyshoecore page to like/share it on Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus
Any help you can give me getting the word out would be very appreciated.
Thank you so much!
This thing is great. I got it from VTech Industries for about $220 AUD. It is basically a mini GNU/Linux server with 2 giant hard drives in it. That price gets you a single 1TB drive and you can install your own drive in the other bay by removing the lid and dropping it in place. The unit, pictured below, is a bit taller and wider than three PC hard drives stacked together.
It comes with a reasonable web interface you can access over your LAN, but I installed the fun_plug hack on it by copying the files across the network and restarting the device - easy. That hack gets you SSH access, rsync, and a bunch of other Linuxy stuff.
We are storing our media and backups on it and it is basically perfect for that use-case. I now once again have a cron-and-rsync based regular backup of all of my servers in the USA, hooray! I'm also routing all SSH traffic to our ADSL router through to it so I can access the files on the device from outside our network if neccessary.
All in all I am very pleased with this purchase.
Calm down, Internet, I am back! My server had a small mishap.
My new hosting provider is much more reliable than my old one. Hooray!
My new one is called prgmr.com and they are great.
I have also taken the opportunity to redesign my website. I hope you like it.
Today I submitted this PocketLoops prototype app to the Univation WApp competition.
This builds on my PdDroidParty work, which is the engine of the app (as well as the impending CanOfBeats re-release!).
Fun mobile-music times. :)
