This time around, I take a look at the Rode NT1-A studio condenser microphone. Billed as the world's quietest studio microphone, this gem is outstanding for podcast, voiceover, and spoken word tracks, but lacks a bit in the features and niceties departments...

Pirates have been an unseen driver of technology since the dawn of the digital age. Here's why we need to have a love/hate relationship with them.

Let's take a look at the AKG Perception 220 microphone. Priced around $50 more than the Audio Technica AT2020, the AKG packs a number of features into an agreeable (approximately) $200 microphone that are often found on much pricier microphones. Similar to the Audio Technica, the P220 is a cardioid condenser microphone, featuring AKG's renowned 1-inch large-diaphragm true condenser transducer.

Save the Date looks to be solved. Apparently one Palm Desert, California hotel might have let the cat out of the bag as to where Phish's halloween festival is going to be taking place this year.

Have a view of this outstanding 3 camera HD footage from Phish's inaugural reunion show at the Hampton Colosseum March 8, 2009. Hopefully this won't get pulled, as it's honestly the best Phish footage I've ever seen, DVD releases included. Thanks a million earthscapeben!

Here's a brand spankin' new dj mix for those of you that have requested. Recorded in one shot, July 2nd between 5:08 and 6:08 pm, this gem runs the gamut from deep house, takes you a bit deeper close to the techno border, and lands you softly. If this don't make yo' booty move, yo' booty must be dead. Enjoy!

I'll admit, I'm not the biggest fan of the first single released off Phish's upcoming album, Joy. At least I wasn't until I heard this gorgious acoustic version Trey's people posted over at Vimeo 20 days ago.

It recently occurred to me that 2009 marks the 20th anniversary of my love affair with four guys from Vermont otherwise known as Phish. I’d like to cover two topics in one piece here: how I was introduced to the band, and my experiences with them, and a primer on what to listen for when listening to Phish.
