GOOGLE hip-hop anniversary mixing app thingy

Duderonomy

Today.

klezmer electro-thug beats

Had a play with it, got annoyed it auto-syncs the breakbeats (and auto-loops them), then remembered how goddam hard I always found it to even loop a breakbeat the old school way when I had a 2 turntable setup. So, fair enough, I'd probably design it the same way.

Who's falling for it? Are they getting a load of credit for doing this silly little thing?

And  yeah, why is it that tech companies so typically have no political or historical perspective on what it is they do, despite the infinite flow of bombastic world-changing language that comes from them all?

i messed around with it and thought it was neato. got to the end of the crates and there were like four prince paul beats, so I'm imagining he had something to do with it so it's fine by me.

plenty of other things to get mad at google over

i don't know, google seems like the coolest huge company. if only because they are funding science research that has no immediate application. i mean, huge companies are the devil, but they look like the smallest devil.
