Ecclesia App: Create iPad Music
Thursday, May 17th, 2012
The future keeps arriving, the latest way with an app that you can make your own iPad music with
When do iPads, iPods, and all the other Apple creations stop improving? Not anytime soon, apparently. The latest invention for the iPad is Ecclesia, an interactive, visual iPad app. Swedish-born electronic musician Eric Wahlforss (who also happens to be the CTO for Soundcloud) has launched the app, which lets the user manipulate the sounds coming from the iPad by touching visuals playing on the screen. The audio fragments provided are church recordings, sampled, fragmented and edited to create more opportunity for newer sounds. According to Wahlforss, "Each shape, colour and illustration has a musical counterpart -- and vice versa. You need to watch and listen carefully to uncover those relationships."
Those of us who don't have iPads won't get to experience this audio-visual experiment--not just yet, anyways. As if we needed another reason to want an iPad.

hearty magazine and Y◎UNG ▼DULTS present: Big Hearts Mix
To celebrate the launch of our brand spanking new Soundcloud, we have commissioned an exclusive mix from the banging California duo Y◎UNG ▼DULTS. With the Big Hearts Mix, the boys of Y◎UNG ▼DULTS are bringing you Bay Area hip hop chopped and screwed with dreamy vocals layered on top of grainy West Coast textures. It's a mix of the haunting and alien crooning of James Blake, the year's rap bangers from Kendrick Lamar and Odd Future, with some remixed throwbacks all strung together.
Y◎UNG ▼DULTS are Tim James and Adam Mills. They live in LA, but are from Jacksnville FL. Currently, working on finishing up their debut album, these beach babes wanted to make a mix to zone out and relax to. "I think a lot of people would agree that we both have big hearts," Tim jokes. Throw the Big Hearts Mix on while you're getting dressed in the AM, reading the daily news, rolling through the city with the top down screamin' out hearty ain't a thang.
We will be posting exclusive hearty mixes on our Soundcloud from now on, and couldn't get things started on a better note. Without further ado we present our new Soundcloud and our first mix the Big Hearts Mix by Y◎UNG ▼DULTS.
Check out our Soundcloud page to get the track list and download the mix below.
