LAPTOP Magazine | Mobile Gadget Guide
Laptop Mag LAPTOP Magazine has released their “Mobile Gadget Guide,” which includes two articles I’ve written on camcorders. One covers mid-range camcorders, the other, high-end models. Writing for print magazines (with their long lead times) is disorienting after getting comfortable with the instant gratification of the web. I composed these articles back in January, it feels like ages ago. I’m happy this is out finally , and look forward to the next issue of ALARM, which I worked on back in December and should finally be coming out soon. Two big music features in that issue.

    Notations»

    “The Federal Republic is not the place for an urban guerrilla movement in the Latin American style. The country offers, at most, suitable conditions for a gangster drama.”

    The new Jed and Lucia EP, Many Many, is available on their website for only three dollars. It’s worth a lot more than that. Really excellent, particularly “Spaceman.”

    Through the Sparks has a new album coming out March 23rd: Worm Moon Waining. They’re offering three new singles, plus all their previous material, including the excellent Lazarus Beach as free downloads at their website.
