Audio Unit Extensions in iOS 10 allow you to play, record and mix third-party instruments or effects right into GarageBand.

FUN FACT: Steve Lacy, a young musician who is currently a member of the band “The Internet” Produced the beat for the Kendrick’s track “Pride” from his latest record “DAMN” using GarageBand on his phone.

Lacy told Wired that he made beats all the time on his iPhone before he got access to a professional studio

“I got this piece called the iRig, I saw you could plug it into your iPhone, they got amps on here, see what cool guitar sounds I could get.”

The model Steve Lacy uses has a 3.5mm jack on it so he uses an old cracked, beat up iPhone for recording guitars and bass through the iRig and uses his iPhone 7 to listen and compose his tracks with.

Uncorked Theatre: How To Solve a Problem Like Murder (NEW)

New Show. Same Rules.

The rumours are true. UnCorked Theatre is returning to Paradise with their intoxicatingly addictive production, ‘How To Solve A Problem Like Murder.’

London’s most compelling immersive theatre company throws you deep into the psyche of seven equally erratic personalities, as they immerse you into a voyeuristic tale of obsession, deceit, and vulnerability.

Sixteen months ago, a woman disappeared, ripping a hole through Paradise and leaving those left behind to pick up the pieces. A loving husband, a best friend, and a once thriving business, all unhinged.

Now, on the eve of Paradise Bar’s annual masquerade event, a new mystery is about to unfold, one that leaves you with not one, but two questions: who died, and who killed. Seven suspects. Seven sins. No one is innocent.

We checked it out recently, hear our thoughts here!

BORING CONFERENCE!

BORING CONFERENCE IN UNAVOIDABLE CLASH WITH LOCOMOTIVE CLUB OF GREAT BRITAIN AGM ON MAY 6TH

– May 6th sees regrettable and unprecedented overlap of two landmark gatherings in the enthusiast’s calendar

The Boring Conference, an annual conference devoted to the ordinary, the mundane and the everyday – and now in its seventh year – goes head to head this year with the Annual General Meeting of the Locomotive Club of Great Britain.

 

Talks at this year’s Boring Conference at Conway Hall include:

Mid 20th century Danish public information films.
Model villages.
Bleach.
How to fold each broadsheet in a confined space in order to do the crossword.
Music and knitting patterns co-authored by microbes.
An on-stage ironing demonstration

Previous Boring conferences have covered topics as diverse as ‘the sounds of vending machines’, ‘a taxonomy of sneezes’, ‘hot air dryers’ and ‘East German pedestrian signals’.

James Ward added: “I’m very excited about this year’s line up and I just hope that the clash will not cause any difficulty.  Obviously I’m not expected any funny business, but anyone travelling by train to attend the Boring Conference might think about choosing an alternative mode of transport in case there are, shall we say, conversations with the higher ups in the Locomotive sector that lead to travel delays.”

Exploding Kittens Card Game

We’re taking closer look at card games and board games here at How To Kill an Hour and this week we took a look at Exploding Kittens see below more about Exploding Kittens and watch the video below on how to play!

Created by Elan Lee (Xbox, ARGs), Matthew Inman (The Oatmeal), and Shane Small (Xbox, Marvel), Exploding Kittens made history when it became the most-backed game in Kickstarter history and the campaign with the most number of backers, ever.

It is a highly-strategic, kitty-powered version of Russian Roulette. Players draw cards until someone draws an Exploding Kitten, at which point they explode, they are dead, and they are out of the game — unless that player has a Defuse card, which can defuse the kitten using things like laser pointers, belly rubs, and catnip sandwiches. All of the other cards in the deck are used to move, mitigate, or avoid the Exploding Kittens.

Netflix Slow Growing?!

Netflix is growing slower than it expected in the first three months of of 2017, but Netflix insist that it is ‘gigantic’
Netflix added 4.95million new subscriptions in the first quarter of this year fewer than the 5.3million that they forecast.

The streaming giant blamed the House of Card series which debuted in the first quarter of 2016 and this years season has been pushed into Q2 as being the main reason for the slow growth.

It is still expected to add 8.15million new subs in total for the first half of 2017, a tad below the 8.42million it added during last years first half. They’re expected to reach 100million subscribers by this weekend.

F**k the Game

We played a really cool card game that plays a bit better if you’ve had a drink or two!

F**k. The Game is a hilarious new Aussie card game which will help you get smarter while swearing at your friends.

HOW DO YOU PLAY?

This is a great social card game that will f**k with your head by using a hysterically tricky combination of colours and swear words:

  • Players take turns to flip over a card and shout out what they see.
  • Depending on your card, you might say its background colour, its text colour or a swear word.
  • Keep playing until someone f**ks up and is forced to pick up all the cards.
  • The winner is the first player to get rid of their cards.

It sounds simple, but the cards use a psychological phenomenon – the Stroop effect – known to mess with your head and delay your brain’s response. Players can’t help but f**k up, sending the group into fits of laughter.
Once you’ve mastered the basics, you can take the game to a whole new level with more rules, more strategy and you can even create your own rules.
