Reason and Lady Gaga
Dave from BoyInABand.com has put up a tutorial of how to re-create Lady Gaga’s Poker face using synths in Reason. What I like especially about this tutorial is that he built the synths from scratch rather than loaded up a VST. So instead of just copying what he does, you actually learn something

Kite are being stubborn
Swedish pop duo Kite stick to their decision to focus on EP:s rather than albums and of course, the classic five track EP is a good pop format.
In mid-September their third EP “III” will see the light of day, as usual on both CD and vinyl. The tracks are “Jonny Boy”, “If There’s an If in Us”, “A Little More Time”, “Hexx” and “Castle of Sand”.
