Sivey & Evil Needle - Baby by Sivey Discover: @evilneedleprod | @sivey 'Constructive Interference' is available on Bandcamp, iTunes, and more digital platforms. ➫ http://ift.tt/1nDnQdy Listen to snippets of Constructive Interference: http://ift.tt/1vrEpzg Release Date: June 24, 2014 Format: Digital/Vinyl ▶ Soulection ~ The Sound of Tomorrow ▶ http://ift.tt/1mrOmsV | http://twitter.com/soulection Disparate producers with complimentary sounds, Evil Needle and Sivey met in an online beat community 6 years ago and to this day have never met in real life. On June 24, 2014 they present their first official EP, 'Constructive Interference', to the world. 'Constructive Interference' was created over the span of 3 years and embodies the unique soundscapes of each producer. Evil Needle, based in Strasbourg France [just on the border of Germany] pulls inspiration from traditional hip hop, neo-soul and trap music while seamlessly weaving in open synths and chunky chord progressions. Manchester, UK-based Sivey incorporates soulful beat-oriented music with what he calls "emotional highs and lows that are still musically stimulating" adding a beautifully uptempo sensibility. The two come together to create a big sound vibration that is reminiscent of the round sound of vinyl – this time in a digital version. Mixed/Mastered by Evil Needle Executive Produced by Joe Kay Artwork by Andre Power Words by Jacqueline Mari

What is your preference? 

TEDx | Technology, Entertainment, Design, x

T

Do you clear your schedule every year to livestream the WWDC? Does an evening of freeing up your RAM sound like your perfect Friday night? Do you use carbon fiber thread to tie your shoes? In the event of a fire, would you have difficulty deciding between saving your 3D printer or your Google Glass? Did you know the term Constructive Interference before hearing about this year’s theme?

Technology refers to all of these things, and so much more. It can be as simple as wondering what crazy inventions could continue to shape our world.  Maybe you read ‘Technology’ and think instead about those chimps and their termite sticks.  Or do you identify with the T because you’re the person that your family calls every time someone’s computer crashes? Technology is constantly growing more prevalent in our lives, and there are endless ways to interface with it. So, are you a T?

E

Are you someone who sings loudly in dorm showers a la Glee? Are Louie and Carlin your philosophical north stars? Did you first see Gangnam Style before it hit 10,000 views? Are you deciding between UCB and The Second City as the next step on the way to your inevitable Lorne meeting? Do you dream of the day when you can finally launch your self-named dance company? Did you spend more of your childhood hanging out backstage than you did in your backyard?

Entertainment takes many forms, and goes well beyond what immediately comes to mind. You don’t have to see your name in the program to be an entertainer.  Maybe you worked out your stand-up material as class clown in high school.  Or it could be that landing that solo in orchestra inspired you to audition for a concerto. Whether in Lincoln Center or in your parents’ living room, you’ll give 110% to the performance just the same.  If you love to amuse, to entrance, or to inspire in any setting, then maybe you count yourself an entertainer, too.

D

Are you a self-proclaimed design enthusiast? Does the rampant misuse of the word “font” make you want to cry? (It’s technically “typeface,” in case you were wondering!) Is arranging your food/homework/clothes/life in visually appealing ways so you can instagram it your raison d'être? Do Mies van der Rohe and/or Frank Stella mean anything to you? Do you have strong opinions on Gotham v. Helvetica? Do you frequent creativebloq?

Even if none of these things apply to you, there are endless ways you can utilize and identify with art and design. Maybe you are an architect, an urban designer, a painter, a sculptor. Maybe you enjoy going to museums or downloading artistic desktops. Design can be expressed in myriad ways, from the purely aesthetic to the strictly utilitarian. You can work across disciplines to create endless solutions to problems. While 2 + 2 pretty much always equals 4, two people painting with blue paint and green paint will essentially never yield the same result, and that’s pretty exciting.

x

We know that TED could not have encompassed everyone in their simple acronym. If you’d like create your own definition, x can be anything you want it to be. Perhaps x=biological sciences, x=contribution, x=faith. X speaks to your values, yourself, your experience.

Think about how these things relate to the way you see yourself and the things that you do for other people. We may be asking for your responses sooner than you expect.
