Electone Prodigy

May 5, 2009 by sawaldhalm

I’d wish I had a Yamaha Electone Stagea ELS-01X, but I’d have to wish for the coordination as well.

Sure, she makes a few mistakes, but she wasn’t even a teen when this was recorded.  She’s got a few years to work it out.

Fun with Songsmith

May 4, 2009 by sawaldhalm

Are you the next great singer but just can’t get a composer or a band for your hit of the century?

All you need is a vocal track and you can plug it into Microsoft Soundsmith and it will provide accompaniment.

Some people have put the master’s to test, isolating the vocal track and plugging it in.

Here’s a few of my favorites.

What if  Crazy Train was a polka?

How a bout a Samba We Will Rock You?

Roxanne was a little too somber, let’s give it some PEP!!

For the aging rockers, an easy listening country Ace of Spades.

It’s like these guys made this song with the remix in mind.  When it goes horribly out of sync you realize the machine just cannot keep up.

Bearbage

So, the bears had a party last night . . .

One way to know for sure when your local bears are out and about is to leave you garbage out for several weeks.

This property nearby has been vacant since December so the stuff laid out in the road all day long.

I tidied it up and tied it up before sundown.  Their happened to be a rope in the pile so I made a little deterrent harness.

Not much of a rope, but we’ll see.

Vector Chess

April 26, 2009 by sawaldhalm

I just got back from a skate to America The Beautiful Park.  Here’s a shot of the homeward view from ATB park.   My house is just below the vertical scar just right of center in the mountain range.  The Mt Manitou Incline.

It’s a twelve mile game of vector chess riddled with hostile surface.
