		<title>BT &#8211; These Hopeful Machines</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It took BT 4 years to write and record &#8220;These Hopeful Machines&#8221;, and it&#8217;s easy to see why.  Aside from his turbulent personal and professional crises &#8211; the multiple robberies of his gear, the custody battle and subsequent abduction of his daughter &#8211; the album is a huge, sprawling affair.  Two 50-minute discs (or &#8220;Sides&#8221; [...]]]></description>

		<title>Frustrating Days.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It has been an annoying past few days in the studio.
Some things have gone quite well, of course.  I&#8217;ve re-engineered backing tracks to make them cleaner and punchier in the live environment.   I&#8217;ve been able to do this quickly and efficiently with the new machine, since I don&#8217;t have to freeze tracks to be [...]]]></description>

		<title>State of the Device, 2009</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Interesting year.
We played some shows.  We played some really, really fun shows.  The band is working together pretty damn well these days, and I&#8217;m really pleased with that.
We took a few breaks for various reasons.  Chuck got married.  Elizabeth got married.  I tried desperately to finish up &#8220;Recursions&#8221; &#8211; and in fact, did.
That was the [...]]]></description>

		<title>The 2009 Nully Awards</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Best Album I Released This Year:  Null Device – Recursions
Oooh, a tough category this year.  But Recursions clearly won out over the competition, by dint of the fact that it was really the only one.  It’s also available for download from nulldevice.bandcamp.com
Best Underworld Track That Wasn’t By Underworld: Mark Knight and D. Ramirez feat Karl [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Fine Art of the Presskit</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The band press kit or one-sheet is like the band photo – it’s a necessary evil.  You’re gunna come off looking like a douchebag no matter what, but you still need to do it.    It’s a lot like a resume in that you can’t get a job without one, you can’t outright lie on it, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Song In A Day</title>
		<description><![CDATA[NPR&#8217;s &#8220;Monitor Mix&#8221; blog, run by ex-Sleater-Kinney&#8217;s Carrie Brownstein (and others), has all week been writing about the decade&#8217;s advancements in music tech.  There&#8217;s a lot of the predictable &#8220;it&#8217;s good!&#8221; and &#8220;oh noes it&#8217;s killing music&#8221; stuff that happens at the end of every arbitrary slice of time.
Anyway, they posted a challenge: if it&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<title>How I Spent My (musical) Weekend</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Friday night was the late-night, barely-controlled chaos that was a Caustic show.  I mention that merely because I was rocking the theremin and some keys for that gig.  I also mention that because it meant I didn’t get home to sleep until well after 2am.
Ordinarily, a Friday night gig would just mean “sleep late on [...]]]></description>

		<title>It Might Get Loud</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I saw the documentary “it Might Get Loud” this weekend.
Interesting film.  It’s quickly very clear why those particular three guitarists (Jimmy Page, The Edge, Jack White) were picked – they each represent a different era of guitar heroics, and they’re also the kind of guitarists who are known for their sound as much as any [...]]]></description>
