Aftershokz Bone Conduction Headphones

March 25, 2016 By Ritchie

  Augmented reality is a very interesting field. I’ve been wandering the streets lately with my Here Active Listening earbuds, changing audio waveforms, lowering and increasing the sounds of the world around me, even blocking the world’s noise out.

Want to Join My Virtual Garage Band?

July 7, 2015 By Ritchie

Everyone has their own way of unwinding after a long day, and mine is to pound the skins on my Yamaha DTXplorer electronic drum kit. As you can see from the video, the fold away kit actually fits very nicely in my room in front of the familiar blue couch. Thanks to my riffing mate […]

Yesterday, Youtube announced what many of us have been hearing for a while – a music streaming servic called Youtube Music Key that ties in both music videos via Youtube, and audio tracks from Google Play Music.

Crowdfunding on Fire

September 13, 2011 By Ritchie

A couple of months ago I had an opportunity to combine my love of heavy music, social networking and tech blogging to support a band which I’ve been following by the name of City of Fire. The band is now at close to double their original funding target via the Pledge Music website, and will […]

Connecting Your Home to Entertainment

July 5, 2011 By Ritchie

Media players have been around for quite some time now, and they’ve taken many different forms over the years.

The Original Wireless Gets a Makeover

May 1, 2011 By Ritchie

It was the end of an era last year when my grandmother passed away in July. She was born in the 20’s, and I was very proud of her ability to stay with the times, even having Foxtel in her room in recent years. One thing Nana did love was her radio, which was almost […]
