Being a person who loves dancing. You can already guess that I want a pair of these shoes. Orphe is a smart-shoes system that uses motion sensors and LED's to enable new forms of expression. They are like the shoes from when you were a kid, but a lot cooler.
Orphe is a smart-shoes system designed for performance that functions both as a customizable lighting system and a musical instrument/audio-visual controller. The sole of each shoe contains advanced motion sensors, around 100 full-color, serially-controlled LEDs, and a wireless module. This technology allows users to intuitively express themselves in new and interesting ways by freely mapping interactions between their movements and light and sound (patent pending). They also provide a system that makes it easy for users to share the assets they've created online. If you want more information. Check out the video below or check out the Kickstarter. Sorry to say though the Early Bird special is already sold out.

Purity Ringis no stranger to The Collective Loop. They have been a part of the Playlist Collection many times. The new album Another Eternity was released as of March 3rd through 4AD label. This album doesn't let you down as sometimes a new album is compared to their first release, which was Shrines in 2012.
Another Eternity has the sounds of chill trap beats with the feel of electro that gave rise to a prevailing style in indie music.It's a different creative leap for the duo and I'm sure we will see other bands try the same, however Purity Ring came first. Purity Ring is stepping out of the ghostly shadows and embracing a somewhat more mainstream electro-pop sound. The songs are a lot more melodic and catchy this time around. Song like "Stranger Than Earth" and "Dust Hymn" will give you that chill trap electro feel, but don't be fooled the whole album will take you on a elcctro-pop journey of great sounds and catchy lyrics. Hats off to the Canadian duo's on their second album.
If this doesn't get your friends talking then well that can't be helped. The Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge has no micro SD slot. No user-accessible battery. Guess they took that from Apple. It delivers a metal and glass phone that's made even more interesting by the signature dual-curve, 5.1-inch Quad HD Super AMOLED display. Other specs include an octacore processor running Android 5.0, a 16 megapixel, f/1.9 rear camera with optical image stabilization, a 5 megapixel front-facing camera, 3GB of RAM, and support for both WPC and PMA wireless charging, meaning your wall charger is needed but can still be used.
So what do you think of this new Samsung phone? Check out the link for more info or check out the video below.
