The Burst Collective offers custom music production and music licensing for commercials, tv, film, corporate media, software and video games.
We've created and produced a few successful production music catalogs for some of the world's largest publishers... Mixtape (formerly known as BurstLabs.com) for Sony/ATV, Gravity for Warner/Chappell, and Velocity for Universal/BMG. We also host recording sessions from time to time in our recording studio, Burst HQ.
You can be our fan on Facebook, if you're so inclined. We like virtual friends as much as any teensy weensy practically invisible music production company, so come on by and say hi.

The Bob Moog Foundation’s Photos - Eric Persing’s OMG-1
Our friend, Eric Persing, designed the OMG-1 (which looks to be a combination of Moog synthesis, Spectrasonics virtual instruments, some hardware, 2 iPads and 2 iPods) and donated it to be the grand prize in an upcoming contest that will benefit the Bob Moog Foundation.
Kudos, Eric! Just awesome. :)

ProLoop for iPhone
The iPhone continues to inspire new interfaces for creating music. This reminds me a bit of the OP-1’s display.
Sweetness.
“Quarter Mile Groove” by Daniel Eatock. (via)
The recording translates the length of its vinyl groove into audio allowing listeners to experience the 1/4 mile length of the spiral as the record is played. Every inch of the needle’s path is audible in the form of a click, each foot as a beat and distances of 10 feet are heard as a blip. These sounds gradually slow as the stylus approaches the center, (the stylus travels less distance in the groove with each revolution of the record). Along the way, the voice of the narrator mentions the horizontal dimensions of particular objects.
Production by Malcolm Goldie.
Have you ever wondered what your web page sounds like?The codeorgan analyses the *body* content of any web page and translates that content into music. The codeorgan uses a complex algorithm to define the key, synth style and drum pattern most appropriate to the page content.
Go give it a try: www.codeorgan.comThis is RAD!!
I agree, this rawks.
Nwk approves. And loves what our tumblr sounds like.
“When you’re working with loops, particularly drum loops, to form the rhythmic basis of a composition, you often find yourself wishing you could do more to customize the track. Logic Pro 9 has a few tools that allow us to work with audio as if it were MIDI—such as the flex time features—but what about turning the audio into a MIDI-controlled sampler instrument track?”
(via How to Turn Audio into Sampler Instrument Loops | Audiotuts+)
Stuff that used to take a week of studio time can now be done in moments. Ridiculous. Holy crap I love Logic.
