A Daft Punk Helmet LEGO Submission Could Enter Official Production
Daft Punk‘s helmets may soon be mass-produced in LEGO brick form. In January 2021, one ambitious LEGO modeler named Eliot O’Brien submitted a product idea inspired by the enigmatic robots themselves. With enough support from the LEGO community, O’Brien’s submission could end up in a store near you. LEGO IDEAS is a product submission platform whereby imaginative LEGO builders and 3-D modelers have an opportunity to showcase their creations. For the chance to be reviewed by the LEGO team and potentially receive an official product launch, submissions must first reach at least 10,000 supporters. O’Brien’s Daft Punk submission flawlessly nails the presentation on Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homen-Christo’s iconic helmets to the pixel. Perching b...
New PC App Turns Your Nintendo Console Into an 8-Bit Synthesizer
An innovative app developer recently managed to unlock some hidden value in the Nintendo Entertainment System, a console discontinued decades ago. For those who’ve managed to hold onto their consoles, or buy a reissued version, Avicr has a new app that empowers players to turn their classic systems into a functioning synthesizer. Titled SynthNes, the app effectively allows users to control the system’s five dedicated audio channels NES’s with a MIDI instrument of your choosing. The reason why this works on the old-school Nintendo specifically is because the NES was part of an era in videogame history where consoles were sold containing dedicated sound chips. In the 1980s, CPU and storage technology was in its most primitive form, and the way music was produced in vi...
GRiZ and Big Gigantic to Release Reggae-Infused Dubstep Collaboration
GRiZ and Big Gigantic are once again ready to let the good times roll. The two have become a celebrated joint creative force over the years, and following up on their recent record “Daily Routine” from GRiZ’s Rainbow Brain album, bass music’s funkiest producers are back at it. That being said, however, what’s coming next appears to be a different beast. Late last year, fans began to inquire into an ID GRiZ had begun rinsing out on tour, a track characterized by a grinding, saw-like dubstep bassline. It’s tough to tell based on the brevity of the clip, but it’d seem GRiZ and Big Gigantic are taking their next release back to an era where reggae and dubstep were on a full collision course. Known in some circles as Reggaestep, th...

DORO PESCH Reflects On Darker Chapters Of Her Life: If It Hadn’t Been For The Fans, ‘I Probably Would Have Killed Myself’
In a new interview with Waste Some Time With Jason Green, German metal queen Doro Pesch was asked if she has ever thought about writing an autobiography. She responded (as transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET): “At one time I started writing a book, and then I couldn’t take it anymore. I really couldn’t sleep anymore; I got nightmares. Because if you really wanna think about the truth, oh, man, it’s worse than a horror movie. And I thought, man, I’d rather wanna move on, do more good stuff, give out good power, energy, records and do a great tour and not thinking about all the times where I almost lost my life — many times. It was so hardcore and actually almost unbelievable, I think. I haven’t seen a movie that hardcore yet. So when I was starting to write, ...
