This Weeks Almost Instrumental TPN Rock Show

It may only be two instrumentals, but that’s two more than the average show. But still when I find a good track, I’ve never let the conventions get in the way. So settle back for this week’s slice of the unsigned, unknown but unforgettable TPN Rock Show.

The Best Of The Fringe Podcast: Four Poofs and a Piano

As mentioned yesterday, I’m going to be repackaging some of the older interview from the Edinburgh Fringe podcasts in the run up to the 2009 Fringe starting on August 7th. The first interview from the archives are three singers who, with a fourth member who was lost around Leith Docks on the day, make up [...]

Rock Band Unplugged Makes Its Way to the Sony PSP

More podcasting fun, but this time with well-established bands as The PSP Show takes a look at Rock Band Unplugged.
Harmonix, the developers, actually have form not just in the ‘pretending to play along with big instruments’ games, but also in the rhythm games. Their PS2 games Amplitude and Frequency used the same principles as they’ve [...]

We Want Our Boxes (For Our Games, That Is)

Over on Ovi Gaming I’ve posted an editorial on the importance of game boxes and physical media for the collector and the console gaming ecosystems.
This may seem a strange issue to bring up, and even though there is a niche that regards game boxes as collectibles, there are many, many more that would be quite [...]

Stephen Fry, Vax and the All About Symbian Insight Podcast

Popping up every week (although I don’t always point it out here) is the All About Symbian podcast, where Rafe Blandford, Steve Litchfield and I chat about the latest happenings in the smartphone world – mostly Symbian but we talk about the wider reach as well.
Of course you can’t talk about modern phones without discussing [...]

Nokia’s Comes with Music if you like mainstream, don’t mind DRM, can live with restrictions….

Nice big article over on All About Symbian looking at Nokia’s Comes with Music service, where you receive two years of as much Digital Restricted Music as you can download from the Nokia Music Store. Admittedly you need to have a taste for mainstream music, and there are some gotchas, as I found it:
Let’s start [...]
