What if…

…you made hip-hop beats at a faster-than-usual 130-135 BPM?

And then sang new wave vocals over that?

As of today I have a new Mac mini, including GarageBand, and I intend to find out.  I’m telling you because maybe you will take this idea and do something awesome with it, and I could feel good about that, too.

In related news, I got a 160 Gb iPod as well; I’ll keep you posted on its impact on my listening habits.  Right now I mostly listen to full albums on CD and don’t skip tracks, and I don’t make mix CDs.  -h

    An iPod? Wowie Howie, welcome to the aughts! Just kidding. I have a 15 gig second generation iPod still. So call me Mr. 2002.

    My iPhone is only 8 gigs…I feel a twang of jealousy.

    Actually, I mostly use my iPhone as iPod for music while driving or listening to NPR podcasts. I just use my computer for music at home.

    But I can totally dig on listening to whole albums. I get aggravated when my wife puts one of my playlists on random…

    Dood, that *would* be aggravating if you’ve laid out a particular order, to hear the same songs in a different order.

    OK, well, the short short version was I need your mailing address so I can send you a wedding invitation.
