Axl Rose Really Knows How To Swing…
Music Hack Day brings together computer programmers smarter than you or me to geek-out and develop music-related applications. The Swinger is one of the awesome hacks created at the event…it can make any song Swing. In a nutshell, it time-stretches the first half of each beat, and then time-shrinks the second half (it SORT OF makes sense to me, actually). Some of my favorite examples…
Guns N’ Roses “Sweet Child O’ Mine”
Police “Every Breath You Take”
Daft Punk “Around the World”
Journey “Don’t Stop Believin”
