Music technology company drops the beat..
Tuesday, July 14th, 2009
Beat Kangz Electronics has launched a portable and mobile sound production system and virtual software package for DJs, artists, and plain music lovers.
The “Beat Thang” was created to fulfill the needs of the urban music scene.
Packed with over 3000 brand new sounds, these products integrate fully functioning Digital FX, sampling, a 16-track MIDI sequencer and waveform editing. Sounds include live bass, strings, synth, just to name a mere few.
It strongly resembles a mini-turntable, in my mind.
The mobility of the product makes the Beat Thang thrive. It contains a lithium battery that last for 6 hours (more or less) and is extremely light weight. That makes moving from your studio to the club a cinch.
The creator of the product, Luke Jackson, believes that the Beat Thang can serve artists in all genres.
“Although our products are mainly influenced by hip-hop, the three of us come from very eclectic musical backgrounds. As musicians, we recognize that hip-hop encompasses many different genres, therefore our products will serve many users,” he said.

DJ…Scr-Scra-Scratching on air?
The Hewlett-Packard DJammer is a cool tool for the mobile DJ/musician that combines a MP3 player with a DJs tools, all in the palm of your hand.
One problem: the device hasn’t been released or is unavailable to the public.
Researchers at HP, at one point, believed the DJammer would be as revolutionary as the first
electric guitar, but since they released first glimpses at the product in 2005, no progress on the development has been mentioned.
According to information on the model, users can scratch on thin air and wirelessly produce sounds that mimic vinyl scratching, just like real DJs.
The device is also linked to a mobile MP3 library, which allows a user to mix tracks in real-time, just like in a DJ booth-minus all the equipment. Its Wi-Fi capablities allow users to do everything with no wires attached.
The device sounds unbelievable..however…
I searched the Internet far and wide to find information on how to purchase the item or a blurb
about the release of the product-none found.
Weird.. but this really could revolutionize the DJ booth.
