Mentioned at SXSW
I got mentioned at SXSW yesterday, specifically at a panel titled DIY Media - Consumer is the Product featuring Limor Fried (of x0xb0x fame). Probably about all the work I have done/am doing on the x0xd0x wiki, but potentially also about the user support that I participated on the forums, and/or my involvement in the IRC channel.
Pretty freakin cool. Not as cool as going there, or being a panelist, but still cool.
I'm gonna be searching to see if I can find a podcast or transcript of the session, and keep y'all posted.

k1nky 53x b0x
here is a great quote from Robin Whittle, creator of the Devil Fish modification for the TB-303. Don't worry if you can't understand the electronics technobabble, there are some real gems in here.
Time to start modding.
I'm actually in the process of looking at the Devil Fish modifications, and seeing how I could implement my own, and even looking into other mod ideas. All this is on my x0xd0x wiki, specifically the mods section.
The Devil Fish does not have an external oscillator, but it does have an external input. The Devil Fish principle is for a single chain of processes (not two oscillators in parallel) to be doing things which range from "electronic naturalesque" to "mechanical overdrive" - through the use of unusual circuitry, high signal levels, and in one case, a filter FM feedback system which can elegantly approach chaos. Those who recognise that complex things like a love life can benefit from wise or reckless overloading of certain elements (for instance a hard spanking) are well on their way to understanding the Devil Fish. In this case the filter is driven well beyond normal limits. Like an ultimately appreciative spankee, its noises and gyrations provide depth, complexity and emotional heat which is exciting and highly satisfying for all concerned. (As when any gentleman heats up a derriere, there is no permanent damage.) Boosting the oscillator level to 20 times normal was good, but there was a promise of even greater excitement at even higher levels. I decided this called for the clothesbrush treatment and whilst examining various combinations of standard resistor values, decided that the pair which gave 66.6 times the normal level was the most auspicious. (Gentlemen, if you think that all that women want is what they say they want, then you need to read some romantic spanking fiction written by women, for women. An excellent source is "Sassy Ladies Magazine" - PO Box 4516 Lexington, KY 40544 USA US$12 for a sample issue. From their advert - "Independent, feisty women find they still need strong, caring men.")Right then.

Ladyada.net is down. Where is it?
Just a little public service notice.
Limors server ladyada.net appears to be down. Slashdot posted a story about Story about Propellerheads giving away Rebirth, and a commenter mentioned the x0xb0x. The comment got modded to +5, so there is a chance that It might have been slashdotted.
It appears the domain is just fine. I did a whois, and it doesn't expire till 07. Limor was away on vacation, and should be back soon, so hopefully its just a server reboot for her.
If/when I find out more info, I'll post it.
Update: According to 'guest' in my comments, the server admin is apparently in NOLA, helping out with the survivors of the Katrina disaster at the Astrodome.
Update 2: She is back up. No mention of NOLA however, so I don't know what is up with that.

CJSW Tonight!
Just a reminder for all'y'all. Tonight, I'll be playing on CJSW 90.9 FM (Calgary Alberta).
If you wanna tune in, it will be also played on BeNow. Thanks Andy!
Tonite is gonna rule. I got some Acid Techno, Party Jungle, Acid Jungle, and Atmospheric DnB on your plate. Ready to be served up with a smile.
And yes. This is LIVE TECHNO ON THE AIRWAVES. And of corse, I am bringing the x0xb0x.

New Song: DedTekno
Long Live the Acid Techno
Click to download www.jonnay.net/music/AcidTechno/DedTekno.mp3 or use the embedded player.
Usual suspects on this one (RM1x Sequencer, A3k Sampler, x0xb0x). The siren-like-noise was generated from a heavily modified Freesound Sound. And seeing as how I got something from the community, I Gave Back.
Enjoy!
Update: Great little critique from an Avian...
