Dimiter Petrov developed this glitchy browser-based music visualizer, but would like feedback to improve it:
I made this glitchy music visualization demo last weekend and I’m looking for ways to improve it: http://happydawn.github.com/glitchy-space/
To try it, open in Chrome, press the play button and choose an MP3, preferably some glitch hop.

“The white man is very clever. He came quietly and peaceably with his religion. We were amused at his foolishness and allowed him to stay. Now he has won our brothers, and our clan can no longer act like one. He has put a knife on the things that held us together and we have fallen apart.”
- Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe
Thomas Mapfumo - “Tinodanana”
In case Monday isn’t the best, let the Lion of Zimbabwe make it all better.
ADULT. - “Idle (Second Thoughts)”
Amazing new track and new sound for ADULT. They got rid of the distortion that’s been hiding their great production and lyrics without eliminating the dark discomfort that makes them worth listening to.
Patrick Cowley - “Megatron Man” (unofficial video)
This staple from the history of electronic dance music gets a great new fan video. Long live megatron man.
Patrick Cowley feat. Sylvester - “Do Ya Wanna Funk”
This classic has it all. Abstract visuals, electronic handclaps, cowbells, beautiful synth arpeggios, a breakdown and spacey soulful vocals.
Lonnie Holley - All Rendered Truth
I’m glad I trust every recommendation Casey Dienel’s ever given me. Holy holy holy.
One of the greatest songs I’ve heard in 10 years, no joke. Thanks Eric. Lonnie Holley, everyone.
From Dust to Digital:
Holley has devoted his life to the practice of improvisational creativity. His art and music, born out of struggle, hardship, but perhaps more importantly, out of furious curiosity and biological necessity, has manifested itself in drawing, painting, sculpture, photography, performance, and sound… [He] did not start making and performing music in a studio nor does his creative process mirror that of the typical musician. His music and lyrics are improvised on the spot and morph and evolve with every event, concert, and recording. In Holley’s original art environment, he would construct and deconstruct his visual works, repurposing their elements for new pieces.
Matmos - “Teen Paranormal Romance”
So funny. I went to school with this dude and his brother. So Santa Fe.
