Prog Keyboard Heaven
After the 2008 Ayreon album 01011001 more or less completed the Forever story, fans were left wondering when or if there will be a new Ayreon album, and what it will be about.
Well, turns out not only are we getting that new album The Theory of Everything this year (2013), it features for the first time ever, Keith Emerson, Rick Wakeman AND Jordan Rudess on the same album. Can I say… the Gods of Prog Keyboard?
And we’ve not even gotten to the guest guitarists yet.

RIP Squeezebox
One of my favourite gadgets is the Squeezebox Touch. And then Logitech went and killed the brand.
At least there is no shortage of alternatives should my Touch give up the ghost. We have:
- The main competitor Sonos (pricey)
- The crowdfunded upstart Olive ONE (DAT INDUSTRIAL DESIGN, pretty pricey too, lots of ex-Squeezebox users involved)
- The lesser known cocktailAudio X10 (nice but pricey, again, and going by reviews the sound quality is lacking)
And perhaps others too.
There is one that stands out, the VortexBox replacement for the Squeezebox (under USD70!).
Hell, at these prices I might build 3 and give 2 away.
