Bob Dylan Voice For Sat Nav Systems

A bid from rival car manufacturers has been put forward to have Dylan's voice used as a navigation tool in their GPS systems.

So you could soon be cruising down Highway 61 or taking the 3rd exit of any given roundabout to the sound of Bob.

A novelty for any Dylan fan (myself included). However, under the numerous amphibians lurking around his tonsils I fear I may soon be heading for along B2166 toward Bognor Regis than my destination of choice.

Apple OSX Snow Leopard Out Friday 28th

I will be sure to grab this. For the price tag of £25.00 (upgrade) I think its worth the 'punt'.

Deerhunter

After attempting to see Deerhunter on many occasion, I finally got to the gig in London's Koko on Monday supplemented with support from Crystal Antlers & Health.

I was expecting more from Health as form what I've heard on record I quite like, but live I was sorely disappointed. Their performance i can only describe as L.A broken boned noise. None of those interesting samples of electronic fried birdsong came through live.

I can't deny the bands creativity when it comes to making a record, with a new single out I'm eagerly anticipating the album release.

Deerhunter were triumphant in their performance, captivating the entire audience with their own brand of ambient, shoegaze.
Although leaving me with a brain tumor I was in ecstasy!

Bradford Cox's (The bands front man) stage presence promoted an ethic of fun and to 'achieve whatever you wish to pursue without hurting others' as he answered the question to the meaning of life.

Cox has a forthcoming release under his project Atlas Sound titled 'Logos' which features Noah Lennon (aka Panda Bear) in the track 'walkabout'.
