Sadie Dupuis’s Announces Solo Project, Sad13
Sadie Dupuis of Speedy Ortiz has announced a solo album and single under the name Sad13. “Get A Yes” is a shimmery, pop departure from her band’s 90’s rock sound, full of synths and electronics.

Turn Your Laptop Into A Synth-Making Machine
We just told you about cool music by other people, but maybe now you want to make your own? Here’s a unique, new way to do it.

You drag and drop and different effects and sounds onto your screen, and turn your laptop keyboard into, well, a real keyboard. The program, which “makes use of Tone.js as an audio frame,” was developed in the UK and is a collaborationn between Luke Twyman, Luke Phillips and Edward Silverton. Check it out here!
