(20 February 2009) - We were able to chat with Lars Amhoff of the German-based Kinkyform, which has been collaborating with artists to produce furniture and objects that meld art with a functional purpose or "Usable Art."

Unlike the original gramophones comprised of a player and a...

February 2008 Playlist
(19 February 2008) - This time of year brings a surplus of album releases and, for us, along with the fresh tunes comes a desire to do little more than stay home and listen to music while watching surf videos. The result is a collection of new faves and old jams, both up-tempo and down, to get you through the leap year. Magnetic Fields: Distortion The first album from...

Motorola ROKR E8
(07 January 2008) - The lastest in Motorola's line of music phones, the ROKR E8, has a new feature that (believe it or not) rivals the iPhone. The innovation is a little piece of tech called "localized haptic feedback," which makes pushing a button on the touch screen feel like actually pressing a button. This is achieved by a small vibration under the spot where you touch, and...

(07 September 2007) - Whenever I get a tune in my head that I can't get rid of, not only do I end up humming along for hours, but I get an uncontrollable urge to bash it out on my axe - sorry, play it on my guitar. Most other players will no doubt agree, which is why Now Play It is a welcome addition to my bookmarks....

(07 November 2006) - Just a quick heads-up for American readers: Smile by Lily Allen, who we wrote about back in April and who last month made her live stateside debut, is this week's Free Download on the U.S. iTunes Store.

(07 September 2005) - Well it's finally official. After many months of rumors, the Motorola ROKR (pronounced rocker) was just announced as the first phone with built in iTunes software.

Music playback is apparently well integrated with the phone features: The Motorola ROKR features a...
