for those who haven’t heard- Matt Moldover has long been known, especially inside the electronic music world, as one of the most creative controllerism gurus around. His past hardware creations have impressed, and his newest is actually available to the public, satiating the desires of musical control freaks everywhere.

At present, in addition to touring and producing, Moldover is overseeing the release of his first commercially available controller. Assimilating ideas from traditional instruments, DJ hardware, and game controllers, the Mojo combines ergonomic elegance, rapid-fire tactile responsiveness, and bullet-proof construction… definitely worth checking out. you gotta see this freaking thing in person- crazy.

FeaturedPlaylist, Ithaca Times interview, Yes Yes Yall…

Wednesday, May 13th, 2009

so the fine peoples over at cdbaby tagged my “Sarge Shukar Rough” album for a featured playlist on the homepage. The playlist is called “The Final Frontier” and I believe it has some tie in to the great hype of the new Star Trek movie. Its pretty funny cause the description of my album starts off with “While most musicians claim they herald from Outer Space, Elijah B Torn is not an episode of Star Trek”! Pretty cool that technology can work in my favor that way! Plus its playlist 33 which is a pretty rad number.

Also- I had a freaking blast playing with Hans Blix last week and in Ithaca last weekend. The ‘BLix rules and we played three tunes together. David Ezra Brown and Dj Laiki killed it real nice and got the Ithacans dancing! I got to bring out my midi controlled dinosaur for the first time too! Really enjoyed rocking the MIDI_EXP! You can read my full interview in the Ithaca times on their arts blog Popcorn Youth right here. Pictures and hopefully video to follow soon!

Also- someone just pointed out to me that Don’t Cry its only Sarge was a song of the day on Yes Yes Yall… some time back, awesome! click here
