    Got stuck in a research hole looking for a new laptop/travel bag. Can't quite find anything that fits all my requirements though. Must be able to fit the following:

    • Laptop: 7.75" x 11"
    • Keyboard: 5.5" x 15.25"
    • Headphones: flattens to 6.5"x7.5"x1.5" or collapses to 6.5"x5"x3"
    • Kindle, notebooks: 5"x7"
    • DSLR: 3.5" x 4.5" x 6"
    • Battery: 3.5" x 6.5" x .75"
    • Various wires and cords

    For reference, I can currently fit everything in my small Tumi sling bag, except the keyboard sticks out the top by an inch and so I can't zip up the compartment. That bag would be perfect if it were just a little taller.

    I want something that doesn't *look* like a backpack, and is nice enough looking to carry in a semi-professional setting. Most backpacks with two straps are too casual looking, and most of the one-strap slings are too small. More zippers are generally good, since I tend to carry lots of little things that would all get lost in a single compartment.

    The only ones I've found so far that are close are:

    • https://www.amazon.com/Targus-13-3-Inch-Tablet-Backpack-TSB80704/dp/B00KVLM9GQ
    • https://www.amazon.com/Victorinox-31374701-Travel-Sling/dp/B00Q845R8W
    • https://www.amazon.com/Victoriatourist-Travel-Canvas-Shoulder-Lightweight/dp/B01HU9EE1Y

    Any suggestions?

    It's that time again, my 8th @Jawbone is dying. Does the automatic sleep tracking on @FitBit actually work now?

  • Day 13: Daft Punk vs The Office #100DaysOfMusic

    Day 13. Daft Punk vs The Office. I had fun with this one! This is the chords and melody from Daft Punk's Get Lucky, but instrumented and arranged the same as the theme from The Office. It's also my first time using a vocoder on my own voice!

  • Day 28 - Waiting

    Day 28. Waiting for the snow to melt. I started this one from the chord progression in the middle, and then built up to and out of it.

    Day 12. This started out as a totally unrelated riff, and by the time I was done adding to it, the original riff didn't make any sense so I deleted it. There are actually 4 different kinds of trumpet tracks in this in order to achieve this semi-realistic result. I was on the fence about adding a faint string section in the background and decided against it in the end. I enjoyed playing with the drum section in this one, using silence to emphasize the trumpet solos.
