First off, lets crack on with the fantastic news of me finally starting to actually be able to cope without being in constant pain with this bloody tonsillitis. Still fighting it off but should be there by the end of tomorrow, better be anyway. Oh, to add to that cool, awesome and fantastic news, I haven’t even had any anti-biotics, so stick that in your pipes and smoke it all you “well I’ve had it too!” people!

Now onto pressing matters, I was enjoying the Brits (while drinking my hot cup of tea focusing on the pain in my throat) and Cheryl Cole started to perform. I got mildly excited all of a sudden, she was miming. Not only was she miming, but she was out-of-sync miming! I don’t know what is worse, miming while most (if not all) other performers sang live or mimed in time, or actually not having the ability to mime properly. Maybe both in special Cheryl’s case!

If you didn’t watch the Brit Awards this evening, or happened to miss her terrible performance (shame on you!), then here is a small clip of it:

Cheryl Cole mime fail on Brit Awards 2010

I can’t stand the girl, she is the worst role model, she can barely sing (or mime), she is a terrible excuse for a talent judge as she was built and shaped from one of those programs and she just knows how to get on my nerves every time she is on my screen. I’m glad tonight happened, hopefully she will watch it and think “Shit, I was really good singing live!”, sorry darling, I think Alisha and Florence both out did you.

Credit for the video goes to YouTube user TheFowlyetti, who uploaded the file. I hosted it here just in-case they take it down for violation of terms etc. which always seems to happen when I embed off that law-binded site.

All this talk of one set of fan boys arguing against another since the beginning of time is just starting to get irritating, especially when both sides are completely wrong. Is Microsoft better? No. Is Apple superior? No. Let me explain the day I have had with trouble from both sides, pathetic problems that shouldn’t even be present.

Windows 7

Okay, so this Operating System is okay, apart from the fact that I received four BSOD’s (Blue Screen of Death) yesturday and today it seems to want to keep bugging me to restart my machine and install updates, which of course… fail. When I do have a chance to actually do something on the machine I get notifications of files being ready to burn to a disc. I haven’t copied any files to be burned to a blank CD and when I go the built-in burning feature (which is crap in itself), it’s blank!

Windows Media Player

I don’t know who oversees the development over at MHQ, but this person must have been either stoned or pissed out their face when he or she approved and released this bad boy into the world. Not only has it got a ridiculous interface, terrible track sorting and not being able to have your songs in a nice tight list is just beyond belief. Importing music? No problem… wait! Where is the import feature? Oh so I need to go and select a destination for music to be automatically updated? Sounds good to me! I’ll leave it there for 5 minutes to update the library.

Seems I haven’t blogged for around 150 years, poor blog. First post of this fantastic new year of 2010 will be about an advert, you read correctly, I am writing about a TV advert! I’m sure you have seen this around on channels and/or on Youtube, if not, then here is a view:

It really is great to watch, to see the way they have used object combinations and transformation, along with much computer power, to present audiences with powerful media. Although some may argue it is not as pointless as the advert for SellCar-UK.com, which contains people dressed up as penguins. Of course, penguins have a lot to do with selling your car. Please note, I am aware that no animals were harmed in the making of the video.

In the end though, who can ever hope to beat the advert for WeBuyAnyCar.com? Any takers on betting with me for how long it will take the track to reach the music charts? The advert they created is just pure bliss in the realms of random and stupidity.

I remember a while back when I was trying out the SongBird nightly builds and taking a close look at each feature. Shoutcast being one of them, I Never really listen to radio stations from the Internet as most of the time they have either crap DJ’s or play the exact same music to mainstream stations.

That was until I saw TechnoBase had 8000 listeners at 11pm one evening, so I tuned in.

Firstly, the station plays very heavy versions of all your favourite music, including Cascada, DJ Tiesto and many more. This is great as quite frankly some songs could do with a bit of a bass lift. Among hardening classic tracks, they also feature normal music such as Bon Jovi and others but remixed, which is always a nice touch.

Great DJ’s

Although they only speak a few words of English, normally when they attempt to sing the song for a few words, as I believe it is supposed to be a German based station (correct me if I’m wrong), you can really get

Played Sonic the Hedgehog on the Sega MegaDrive? Of course you have! I bet you also loved the music, especially tracks such as the Flying Battery Zone! How would you like it for the music to be remixed and then released for free? Don’t believe me right? Well check out the following videos and follow the links to the download!

This first video is the remix to the Sonic 3 – Act 2 Boss. It is a fantastic track due to it sounding like a real mix that a signed DJ has created. Enjoy!

The second remix is of Sonic 3 & Knuckles – Act 1 Mini Boss. This is a very popular, loved track from the Sonic saga and is a truly epic remix.
