I love cutting edge technology, and whenever a new gadget is hitting the streets that makes some kind of noise I'm bound to check it out. It wasn't long until the innovative French hardware company JazzMutant caught my eye with their sexy gizmo called "Lemur". If there was a Playboy for gadgets, the Lemur would make the centerfold - every single month!
Due to my previous involvement with other companies in the same sector Jazz Mutant and yours truly eventually joined forces, and I ended up programming a software interface for the Lemur that allows you to control Native Instrument's Traktor Studio software. Jazz Mutant is now offering this interface as a download from their website and added me to their roster of "Lemurized Artists" just in between Daft Punk and Kraftwerk - not too bad I guess!

You'll be amazed what you can do with a rubber band, some super glue and a broken-down CDJ!
