But first, a few things:
1. I went through my last year and a half @ Georgia Tech with a strong focus on music and multimedia, and as such I’ve seen a lot of really interesting hybrids of technology, music and traditional art. Well tonight is playing host to a yearly celebration of that fact and you should all come out and experience it:
Listening Machines 2007
April 6th 8PM(that’s tonight!) at the Eyedrum - 290 MLK Dr. Atlanta, 404-522-0655
In its third year, the Listening Machines series expands its scope to present both music and art projects by Georgia Tech’s students and faculty. A collaboration between the Music Technology and the Digital Media programs at Tech, the concert and exhibition will explore creativity and expression of humans and machines who listen to and interact with each other.

2. Our friends over @ Nophi Recordings have dropped a subtle hint that they may be looking for an intern to help run some aspects their label (offering college credit). If you’re interested, drop Threv an email.
3. Music (all you really care about, you hypemachine-junkies)
So my friends and I have come to this conclusion: Friday nights in Atlanta, after 2am, there’s nothing else to do but get krunk @ DSC. As such, these are the songs that I want to hear tonight whilst drunk:
“Died in Your Arms Tonight (DTL Remix)” - Cutting Crew
Drop The Lime’s remix of 80s classic. Its been in my head for weeks and will not leave. Damn you!
“The Final Countdown (Antmic/Them Jeans remix)” - Europe
Any of you remember the old old trance remix of this? Well with this new-rave-whatever-wave, it was decided another chopped and screwed remix was needed (There’s a council for these sort of things). Hell, I’m game.
“Club Action (Chris Bagraiders Sailing to Baltimore Edit)” - Yo Majesty
Yo Majesty may be the oddest/awesomeness combination of people/music I’ve come around in some time, but god-damn they’re good. The original of this is krunk-tastic as well.
“R2F (Avenue D vs. Fluffy Target)” - Avenue D
Yes, I’m serious. Its actually a really good mix, I promise.
4. And in other news, we still <3 Lilly Allen
