about

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 Future of Artist Collaboration, via soundcloud:
Imogen Heap has been a longtime SoundClouder and always on the forefront when it comes to finding new ways to engage and connect with her fans. Recently she answered some of the questions her fans recorded for her: http://ask.imogenheap.com

Now for her new album, she came up with another very interesting idea you should not miss. Let’s hear it in her own words:


My fourth solo album begins here, with you on the 14th March. You are the spark of inspiration. #heapsong1 is the working title of the first song from my new album. The album will be completed in roughly 3 years, with a new song released every 3 months as soon as it’s completed.


Imogen plans to put the songs out as soon as they are ready and keep them relevant to the time they are created. Then, as Imogen still wants to have another physical album to put on her shelf next to Ellipse, she’ll release the album for those who’d like to hold it.

And you can contribute in the making of the first track of the new album, that is pretty cool. Head over here to learn about how you can participate and tune in tonight at 6pm GMT for a live chat with Imogen herself.

Here’s the link to the PDF with all details and timeline for the new creation of the new record.

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.

“ The new file, MusicDNA, can include things like lyrics, videos, artwork and blog posts, which will continually be updated, as well as the music.

It has been created by Norwegian developer Dagfinn Bach, who worked on the first MP3 player in 1993. ”

Cool stuff.  Interesting timing, too.
