Ever wish you were back to the days when you could just throw on the Ol’ Gramophone and listen to some tunes. Now you can, and even play music from your iPod on it.
Yes it’s true, Designed by the Cucumber Lab the CL Sound Machine is a sound projecting music machine with a place to stash 12 bottles of wine.

Thanks for the tip, Olli!
World Press Photo – winners gallery 2006 once again proves what kind of a world we’re living in.
The winner photo is really fabulous, but what really hit me was a photo of a wounded US Marine, who returned home to marry. Probably the best anti-Iraq-war photo I’ve seen – even though is wasn’t shot for that purpose. Poor man.
Netvibes offers a very nice user interface for listening new podcasts. All subscribed podcasts appear in a basic rss-feed form, but there are two buttons for each entry: “listen” and “download”.
Basically you can stream every podcast which sounds interesting before downloading it. As I’ve subscribed to nearly 30 different podcasts, it took all my bandwidth to download all the new casts everytime I opened iTunes. I’m more than happy to select the best mixes using this interface and leaving iTunes just for my music library.
After a few trance/progressive mixes, our next podcast guest dj concentrates fully on house. DJ Flight is one of the rising names in Finland at the moment and definitely worth checking. His mixes vary from smooth, melodic yet easily approachable house to full-on technoish electro house. For more, see www.djflight.com.
Jackbooth worked like a dream >> www.jackthehouse.org
Aamulehti vertailee tänään ilmestyneessä lehdessä sanoilla “Turku” ja “Tampere” saatuja YouTube-hakutuloksia. Jutussa mainitaan myös turkulaiselta “Orion@Choon!”-klubilta kuvattu pätkä, jossa on “jo mainoksen tuntua”.
What?!
Chooneissa oli todella hauska käydä, mutta että klubi vaihtoi oikein nimensäkin sen jälkeen? ;)

And as a reminder:
Today: Orion’s one hour mix on Radio Laserpoint, 21:00-22:00 (CET+02), guest mix on Fresh Waves, a show by Denis Vakulin. Tune in here.
I guess (or hope) everyone’s already aware of the climate change report which was published yesterday. The panel concluded that it was at least 90% certain that human emissions of greenhouse gases rather than natural variations are warming the planet’s surface.
So we should act.
But doesn’t it feel a bit odd to buy a energy light saving light bulb when currently there are over 2500 coal mines in China and dozens (or even hundreds) more are being built every year?
No wonder people are thinking that the actions of one individual do not count.
But it’s worth remembering that even though you’re thinking your actions won’t count, it still is a bigger bad when you won’t do what you easily COULD do.
