Closing Tabs 2024

posted January 1, 2024 #

Like many of us, I have too many tabs open. Here's a smattering of what I currently have open to give myself the permission to close them for good.
  • Please Honk, I'm Texting Bumper Sticker - we all know someone that needs this.
  • monFade - modest stadik - new side project of this guy that embraces lo-fi studio tools. It's all instrumental and beat based and I am really enjoying it. A more proper review would be appropriate but I'm doing my best to spread the word here.
  • macOSpilot AI Assistant - intrigued by this add-on that "answers your questions about anything, in any application." Basically, it takes a screenshot of what you're doing, sends it to ChatGPT Vision and tries to answer your question. The demo isn't all that speedy but the promise is undeniable.
  • Precision Pressing Pricing - not really relevant to most folks but this vinyl manufacturing pricing is nuts. I'd be a fool not to try this?
  • Grant Lindberg - "Too Fast" - at one point in time, Grant and I talked all the time. We drifted for no particular reason but I've been keeping up with his latest musical output and it's quite good. He's even got Kellii Scott from Failure playing drums on a number of these tracks.
  • Various Artists - El Teatro Esta Cerrado (The Theater is Closed) - this compilation was released by a label I enjoy called Dead Currencies. They often do short run lathe cut vinyl for some of their releases and always have an interesting smattering of musical styles. This is a nice sampler to get familiar with them. The Mount Olympic track is a nice place to start and the High Aura'd track is destined for your Halloween playlist.
  • Faircamp - is this meant to be a Bandcamp alternative? It certainly looks like it and I'm very keen to figure out how it works under the hood.
