Mixxx review

Mixxx is DJ mixing software created and maintained by the open source community. It's free, offers great basic capabilities, and supports around 30 external midi DJ controllers. It's where any aspiring DJ should start off, and it's good enough that you may never leave it, unless you're an FX junkie.

Piezo review

I’m often asked for an easy way to record audio playing on your Mac. While there are a good number of programs for recording audio sources connected to your Mac, there aren’t many simple ways to record audio from other programs, such as a web browser, a streaming audio client, an audio chat app or DVD Player.

Fre:ac review

I liked fre:ac when it was bonkenc, and I like it now.

The good news is that you can now control your Squeezebox with an Android smartphone or tablet. We take a look at the Squeeze Commander app to find out how smooth this experience really is.

Google Music review

One of the first services that Google unveiled at this week's Google I/O conference was its new cloud-based music player, Google Music. I've spend the last 12 hours using the beta of Google Music and for someone like me, with multiple PCs, a Mac, a Motorola Xoom and a Motorola Droid X, it's the Holy Grail of music players.
