Last week we told you about a Kickstarter project looking to bring You Are Listening To Los Angeles to the iPhone and iPad.
The site currently combines radio scanner in cities like NYC or LA with ambient sounds injected through the SoundCloud API, and the site’s creator, Eric Eberhardt, is looking for funding to help put it directly into your hands.
We’re big fans of the project here at the ‘Cloud, and would love to see it realised! There’s a week left of the funding drive, so if you’d like to have the sounds of your city in your pocket (or large iPad sized pocked), head to the project page and help Eric out!

Welcome to a new world rec(order).
The web today makes it really easy for us to share our experiences  with the people we care about. Status messages on Twitter and Facebook,  videos on YouTube or photos on Flickr, capturing a moment and sharing it  with our friends, fans or family gives that moment a special meaning.
Imagine you’re in the subway and all of a sudden a group of strangers  starts singing -  what’s known as a flashmob is happening right in  front of your eyes (and ears). Or imagine you’re on tour with your band  and have a super-funny story or acoustic demo of a brand-new song to  share with your followers and fans. How awesome would it be if you could  capture this moment on the move and instantly share your recording with  your people? We think that would be pretty awesome…
Today, we’re excited about the release of the recording feature. The Record button will make it easy for you to capture all kinds of  sounds right on SoundCloud & with the iPhone app and share them from  anywhere to everywhere on the web: your website, social network  profiles or simply between friends & family.
Read the full blog post about the announcement and the update of our free iPhone app.

SoundCloud iPhone Music Visualiser

Another great hack created during Musichackday in London was the iPhone Music Visualiser by Matt Biddulph and George J Cook. It’s a pretty cool music visualizer for the iPhone that let’s you browse tracks on SoundCloud (using our API) and then launch a custom visualiser for a track of your choosing on your iPhone. The visualiser is actually sending the track over to Echonest, a great audio analysis web service, and uses that data to drive the cocos2d-based visualisation. Check out the video to the right to see it in action! Note for example how the particle systems grow bigger once the track loudness goes up. The project is open-source so feel free to go and fork it for your own needs.
