I think you mean Cajones Muertes, which means dead balls.

"Cajones Muertes" means "Drawers Deaths". "Dead Balls" is "Cojones Muertos".

I like "Muerte Cohones", though; especially with the lowercase "J" in "DJ". It evokes a confident feeling of modernity unbound by language.

Sorry to cause confusion. I just thought I'd mention it in case the special edition version that was for sale was out of other members' price range.

Bleep Labs just released the hardware on which the Dâm Drum was based. I ordered one!

Hello. My friend, Liz, a.k.a. Unknown8bit, made a WordPress theme called "Amigo 1985" - a tribute to Amiga Workbench 1.x. I thought it might be of interest to some of you; should you be a WordPress user.

Enjoy!

oh I was unaware that it cost more money to render your mp3s in a higher bitrate wink

I take it you've never had to pay for bandwidth. Lucky you!

The kicks on the opening track reminded me of the kicks on "The Wildstyle" by Time Zone.

If you're feeling a bit impatient, jump to around 6m 30s for the kick freakout. <):')

P.S.:

Pendleton Ward (Adventure Time)
and
Keita Takahashi (Katamari Damacy)

are making games, too.

www.kickstarter.com/projects/lagamespace/la-game-space-a-place-for-re-imagining-video-games

My friends at LA Game Space, Daniel Rehn and Adam Robezzoli (also of the video game collective, Attract Mode) are heading an exciting Kickstarter project to "expand the possibilities of video games through residencies, exhibitions, research labs, speaker series, and workshops" in Los Angeles and elsewhere globally. A lot of chip music scene regulars are helping out: enso is going to make pixel portraits as one of the rewards and I'm teaming up with Chris Osborn (he programmed all of the "BIT.TRIP" games) to make a game called "uu" (info here).

And now some of our favorite chip musicians are offering something that'll make you happy from now until December 7th (and longer if you pitch-in) re-issues of long out-of-print NES releases:

"Teletime" by Animal Style
"Color Caves" by Alex Mauer & Phlogiston
"Vegavox" by Alex Mauer
"Vegavox II" by Alex Mauer

as well as a special, personalized LA Game Space NES cartridge by Enso, Alex Mauer, Batsly Adams & NO CARRIER.

All of the info is here:
http://donate.lagamespace.org

So if you can, please, help out. You won't be disappointed. Promise.

REMEMBER: The deadline is the 7th of December, so hurry!
