It’s alive! I had to buy a few more parts than I thought, but I finally got the first iteration of the MidiBox SID. What is it? It is a do-it-yourself project that takes the Sound Interface Device (SID) chip from the Commodore 64 and 128 computers and makes a …
So I was chillin’ on the iTunes Music Store today listening to some lesser known tracks by Gorillaz to see if I wanted to buy any. During this process, I noticed an odd "feature" in iTunes… If you play a sample of a song that you have not listened to …
