I Massive Attack pubblicano l’Ep "Air Atlas" per beneficienza
Sep 9th
Dopo aver rilasciato il quinto album di studio dal titolo “Heligoland”, lo scorso febbraio, il gruppo britannico dei Massive Attack, considerato l’ideatore del genere trip hop, sembra avere creatività da vendere, e annuncia interessanti impegni in programma a breve: un tour assieme ai Thievery Corporation, e la pubblicazione di un Ep per beneficenza intitolato “Atlas Air”.
I proventi del disco costituito da 4 tracce andranno a sostegno dell’organizzazione War Child una Ong che aiuta i bambini vittime della guerra. L’iniziativa nasce anche per celebrare il 15esimo anniversario dalla pubblicazione per beneficienza dell’album icona “Help” del 1995. Gli artisti di Bristol commentano così l’iniziativa:
“Il primo passo per sostenere “War Child” non è stato difficile da fare: i bambini sono le vittime innocenti della guerra. Eravamo pronti a mobilitarci. Quali sono i vantaggi per War Child è che avranno la possibilità di fare grandi album e organizzare eventi. Non é un iniziativa una tantum: è un progetto in corso e può avere un effetto a lungo termine”.
L’ Ep contiene la traccia “Atlas Air” cantata da Robert Del NaJa, lunga oltre 7 minuti e presente nell’album “Heligoland”, che potete ascoltare dopo il salto, una nuova canzone intitolata “Redlight” e due remix. Il lavoro uscirà a novembre e sarà disponibile in download digitale o in vinile da 12 pollici. I dischi in vinile sono a edizione limitata (1.000 copie).

Sep 8th
My, how far we’ve come. Believe it or not, Mophie’s Juice Pack pack is in its seventh generation of product development, with the latest ‘Air‘ supporting Apple’s polarizing iPhone 4. For those unaware, these cases nearly double the battery life of the phone they’re wrapped around, and better still, it acts as protection against drops and dropped calls. Fancy that! This little guy is said to provide up to six extra hours of 3G talk time, 36 hours of bonus audio playback or nine hours of video playback. It’s shipping now to those willing to part ways with $79.95, and it’s available in any color you want, so long as it’s black.

Keepin’ it real fake: Dyson’s Air Multiplier gets ripped off, multiplied a few more times
Sep 6th
We never really understood the value proposition behind Dyson’s (admittedly boisterous) Air Multiplier, but that’s mostly due to the $300+ MSRP. Cut that back to right around $40, and you just might have us singing a different tune. Thanks to the wonders of KIRFing, Dyson’s bladeless fan has seen itself duped and multiplied over in China, with a 10-inch version now selling for just $41.05 so long as you buy ten or more units. Abiko seems to the company hawking the knockoffs, with its version reportedly “indistinguishable from the original.” So, what’s it going to be? The real deal? Or the real deal?

Mophie Juice Pack Air: coming to double your iPhone 4 battery next week
Sep 2nd
So, you’ve been waiting for a Mophie Juice Pack for your iPhone 4? You’re not alone. Well, we have word that it’ll be available as soon as next week for $79. We even managed to get hands on with a prototype that looked and felt pretty tight considering the fact that it doubles the iPhone’s non-removable battery. The Juice Pack Air features pass-through USB charging and sync with iTunes, an integrated 4 LED charge status, and a standby switch the shuts off the juice turning the appendage into a rather attractive (albeit, heavy with a 1500mAh capacity battery), soft-grip case. So now you know.

Nike Air Maxes get a Wii Balance Board infusion
Aug 27th
Recently Nike — a shoe company that seems to enjoy a side dish of tech from time to time — challenged 78 artists to “hack” its shoes and come up with something decidedly different than your typical Air Force Ones. Now, a lot of the projects were more art and less tech, but that can’t be said for entrant Nick Marsh’s contribution to the experiment. The designer fused the internals of a Wii Balance Board with a pair of Air Maxes to create a gaming experience that may not be nuanced, but certainly seems capable of making you break a sweat. According to Nick, games are played exactly as they would have been previously, but since you can’t step of the board, you’re required to lift your foot or sit down when games require you to back off. Nick finished the project in April, but it sounds like a slightly more polished version could be in the offing. Check out a quick video of the shoes in action after the break, and hit the source for a slew of pics.
