Bell Orchestre is Richard Reed Parry, Sarah Neufeld (both of Arcade Fire), Stefan Schneider (the Luyas), Pietro Amato (torngat, The Luyas), Kaveh Nabatian, and Mike Feuerstack (Snailhouse). They make provocative and deep music which is beat driven focusing heavily on strings and wind instruments.

Julian Casablancas is releasing his debut solo album, 'Phrazes for the Young', on the 19th October. Listening to this surprisingly good single, I'm suddenly getting excited about this album as it breathes new life into that age old indie scene which The Strokes seamed to single handidly create all that time ago back in 2001. The lead single is called 11th Dimension and its pretty cool with a groovy synth line, yes synth, i know, not what I was expecting either. It kinda catches you off guard but then his trade mark raw vocal comes in and fits seamlessly like The Strokes always had a synth player. Another good point to make here is that the artwork looks totally sick! it's got that Bowie 'Spiders from Mars' feel about it but with a modern twist. Go and check out the myspace for more pictures and youtube interview with Julian talking about the album.

The pictures above were created using Polanoid, which is an application that turns a digital picture into a polaroid version. Apply the classic saturation, contrast and famous white border to any photo on your hard drive. This app has some nice features too, you can actually watch your polaroid develop on your screen in real time just like the real thing. It also has the exact sound of the shutter/image eject motor from a real polaroid camera that sounds when you process an image. Real geeky but i love that noise!

It can never beat holding a real polaroid in your hand but its pretty cool to play with and gives some nice results that even include the odd finger print!

Amazing podcast from producer dBridge. Now into the 8th edition, expect dark, non-stop beats bridging the gaps between dubstep, techno, and drum&bass. I'd advise checking out the previous editions also as the music is just as mind-bogglingley good.
