Noisia - Vision Recordings Promo Mix (September 2005)

This is a heavy mix, and one which I've not heard before, despite its age - and similarly, I don't think it's been linked on this venerable site, either.

So check it out!... Some proper Visionoisia badness from the get go. Noisia - Vision Recordings September 2005 DOA Promo Mix.

Deception live on DNBRadio - Twisted Tunes From A Twisted Mind

Sorry I've not posted much recently, it's exam time here at Uni and I've been bogged down with revising for horrible exams. Ugh.

Here's a nice treat: the 21/01/2006 Deception DnBRadio show, I rocked out to it and you should do too.

In other events, look what THG did... They took all the fans off a PC, filled the case with 8 gallons cooking oil, and... It worked! Surprisingly well. The video's available to download on Page 2 of the article - and recommended reading, purely for 'wtf!' factor.

More tasty treats coming shortly. Happy weekend all!

Also in the news... Wi-Fi reaches the speed of Ethernet:

Wireless networks may be convenient to set up, but wired ethernet has always been faster. Now a new generation of Wi-Fi products is challenging ethernet's superiority for high-bandwidth apps. We sampled some of the first of these Wi-Fi products--Netgear's $180 RangeMax 240 Wireless Router and $100 Notebook Adapter--and found that at close range, even with encryption enabled, data speeds were only a little bit slower than on a standard 10/100 megabits-per-second ethernet network.


The RangeMax 240 line is based on Airgo Networks' new True MIMO Gen3 technology (also used in Linksys's new SRX240 line). Like Airgo's original True MIMO chip set (found in Belkin's Pre-N, Linksys's SRX, and other product lines), True MIMO Gen3 uses two transmitting and three receiving antennae to boost speed and range, while maintaining backward compatibility with standard 54-mbps 802.11g Wi-Fi products.


An example of such a product (in this case, a D-Link router featuring MIMO-chipset 108mbps technology) can be found on the Pyroport shop, if you want to take a look at it: http://shop.pyroport.com/product_reviews_info.php?products_id=245&reviews_id=1.

Yum. Faster-than-wires wifi. Think of the lan gaming pings...
