Hacking the Pepsi iTunes Giveaway by Josh Spear
iTunes songs, and yep--the hack introduced by Macmerc.com during last year's contest still works like a charm. I don't drink Pepsi, but if you do please help yourself to a winning bottle and a free song ahead of the competition on me. Pepsi says 1 in 3 is a winner, which is great odds but wouldn't you prefer to win every time? I would. Macmerc.com has great directions on their site.

NIN + Garageband
Whether you're a Trent Reznor fan or not, this is a pretty damn inventive way to release a single. We now know Trent Reznor is a Macintosh user, because he has released a single as a GarageBand file, for personal remixing. This is a promotion for the Nine Inch Nails upcoming release "With Teeth", which will be available May 3rd. "'What I'm giving you...

Fergus Brown
Recently announced as the support for American singer-songwriter, Martha Wainwright on all eleven shows of her Australian tour, we checked in with Sydney-based songwriter Fergus Brown to get the inside story on his wonderfully quirky and catchy pop song, "Nerds In Love." It was was a fun song to write. Some songs can be tortuous but this was an imagined, tongue-in-cheek vignette of my...

Pivot
Lost At E Minor featured Pivot's Secret Playlist recently and now they have an awesome new album out. With members scattered across the globe (though with roots firmly planted in Sydney), Pivot create lushly ominous electronic music that seeps through your soul, steals your heart and renders you immobile. For a good ten minutes at least, as their latest album O Soundtrack My Heart...

d.v.d
Creating more than just beats, Tokyo-based drum trio d.v.d's live installations include synchronizing instruments to Flash technology (hooking up two sets of drums to images) resulting in a video game effect. Members Itoken, Jimanica and Ymg began performing in 2006 and have since gathered a large following of fans in both the music industry and the arts playing around Japan and Europe. This year...
