Now, to make things even better, Ableton have announced that they’ll be taking over the Fenchurch Dome from 13:00 til 17:00 on Saturday March 13 for a special production session. This will feature Surgeon, who’ll be going over his DJ setup, giving a short performance and answering your questions, and Al Tourettes, who will demonstrate how he uses Ableton Suite for production, sound design and remixing. A product expert from Ableton will also be there to give an introduction to music production and performance for beginners. All of the information can be found here: www.ableton.com/pages/2010/bloc_festival_uk

Would your tracks sound better with a real drummer playing on them? Then Voxengo’s new drum recording service will be of great interest to you. Simply send them your song, and they’ll have an experienced drummer record a drum track in their recording studio – they’ll then send you the multitrack recording. It’s all recorded at 96kHz/24-bit and you get separate WAVs for overhead, side, room, snare drum, bass drum and toms.
The service is normally $70 per song, but between now and March 6th 2010, they’re doing it for a ridiculous introductory price of just $15. Check it out right here: www.voxengo.com/drumservice

Google has, apparently without warning, deleted several high profile music blogs from its Blogger and Blogspot services. According to this report blog owners were only informed after the deletions took place, and some claim that they received terms of use violation notices from their hosts regarding content that had been approved by the record labels involved.
So is this fair play by Google, or a worrying case of shoot first, ask questions later?
