Cadenza boss Luciano revealed his Æther live performance project at Spain’s Monegros festival on 18th July, a project that is being billed as a “synchronization of sound and colour”. In this video you can see Luciano conducting his laptop symphony from the centre, with his back to the audience like a classical music conductor would guide an orchestra. Cadenza label mates Reboot, Mirko Loco, Lee Van Dowski, and Digitaline throw in sounds and percussion from their laptops using Ableton Live, whilst Luciano controls the incoming sounds via a touchscreen computer and what appears to be a Native Instruments Maschine, ultimately deciding what gets through.

For its 36th release, Cadenza introduces two new collaborations: Luciano with Guy Gerber, appearing on Cadenza for the first time, and Lee Van Dowski with Glimpse, another newcomer to the imprint. (download via dreambigdreamfree.com)

I made this mashup mix back in 2007 for a Radio Station. It features over 100 tracks and snippets, unfortunately i don´t have the track listing anymore. After just re-discovering the mix, i was pleasantly surprised that its still sort of current. Have a listen and tell me what you think about it.

Here is a baseline / synth-line i made a while ago for a song. Unfortunately i lost the rest of the sample and the song never got finished. If you got any ideas, post them here and we´ll finish the song collaboratively!
