Mixed-up and mashed up


Presenting the world premier of my first mash-up, In Our Lives.


You can check it out here now or wait until it's featured in my next Podcast. Basically, I took the idea that it's Podsafe to run 30 seconds or less of a published song as fair play. Add that to one of my favorite songs as you have a mashup (though it's more of a mix-up than a mashup).

Obviously, you won't find any Beatle versions at the iTMS (linked at the sidebar on the right), but you can find most of the artists there (name followed by a * if the songs are available in iTunes)in this mix-up. The artists lending their musical talents to this include the Beatles, Ozzy Osbourne*, Johnny Cash, Spyro Gyra*, Sean Connery*, Jackie Robinson, José Feliciano* and Astrud Gilberto*.

Check it out and let me know what you think of it. Enjoy.

Europe 2005 photos

I'm back in Singapore. Just landed this afternoon and already have some photos up.

Podcast-wise, I'm working on two more, one from Switzerland and one from Italy. Both will be up in days, followed by a normal Randcast with some Mac advice, more reviews and a follow-up on the trip.

Photos can be seen here. And I may add others later on.

Another blow for Bali

Sharon's recent Soundseeing tour of Bali seems a little bittersweet now ...


She wasn't in the particular areas hit by the weekend suicide bombers but it's still scary nevertheless. And just recently, we were discussing a French report about Al Qaida and JI planning attacks in various Southeastern Asian countries. We also talked about traveling right around 9/11. And I said Bali should be safe but I wouldn't go there in October, just in case.

For a beautiful area just recovering from the last suicide terrorist attacks, this is going to hurt that area. One news report quoted a journalist saying it's the final nail in the coffin for Bali's tourist industry. I wonder if the irony was intentional.

To hear that island, check out Soundseeing: Bali. It does paint a different picture than what you see on the news these days. So sad.
