For the last few months I’d occasionally been hearing mini-explosion sounds like those bang snaps that I remember from my semi-pyromaniac youth. I finally figured out they were coming from my computer—a custom PC that I built in 2007. After another explosive pop yesterday, the graphics on my screen started to look like they were drunk. I opened up the PC case and my 2 SLI graphics cards were literally like a million degrees!

“Remixed” is a new beta section on VirtualMusic.tv covering open remixing via remix reviews, remix stories, virtual collaboration, and remix production techniques. The idea is an mp3blog covering remixed tracks with posts that include—or link to—streaming remixed audio or video.
