CALCOPAC is a «BEEP» more than a simple calculator. It’s a tribute to the legendary 8-Bit Videopac Game Computers released between 1978 and 1983. CALCOPAC provides a stylish retro calculator with 2 skins and 24 8-Bit sound effects.
Play your results as a little melody – An ironic statement to Kraftwerk’s «Pocket Calculator» and a perfect combination of Fun & Function. It is surely going to replace all my other calculator apps. BEEEEEP

amazingly simple no fumble music controls while driving. use gestures to control so eyes are on the road. swipe left/right to skip tracks, tap to pause. nice!

super simple sampling drum pad app. just select a pad, click record, sample your favorite sound, phat beat, gross noise or talking parrot, etc. nice 8bit retro interface and style.

amazing app from ustwo uk. this one allows you to make fanatical musical compositions with illustrated monsters created by jon burgerman. funny and cute!

this game is a fantastic mix of platformer (literally there are platforms) and japanese animation style. some very cool game play sequences that are reminiscent of animation scenes from akira or tekkonkinkreet with a bit of ambient background mood music mixed in. you hold your finger down to charge how high to jump, while estimating the distance to each platform. touch gameplay and menu systems are very well done. def worth the paid download.

an interactive music application where you use leaves and falling stones to create your own unique music compositions. a stone hits a leaf, and the leaf produces a sound. depending on how the stone hits the leaf different sounds are produced. move, rotate and scale leaves in any combination. you can save, load and share the songs with friends. well crafted artwork and sound design.

tilt and touch to bump or shoot a black ball to win levels. great physics but slightly repetitive electro music, if reactive to game play would be cooler.

yes, more clock apps, but, this one is for iPad AND not only has a quite interesting animated presentation of the time, but also has music playback from your itunes library (at the flick of a finger no less). who says you can’t have the time in huge 150 point type as you might from your desktop or laptop screensavers. thanks to daniel the developer for the nice screenshot images!

the proof of how much fun a simple but clever concept with sound and geometrics is: draw lines and watch as Soundrop uses them to create music! I really enjoy this little free masterpiece and there’s a giant list of upcoming features.

the second app in a series of fantastically crafted ones from johan at parasol from finland. a minimalist sound toy, control both visuals and techno-teutonic soundscapes by touching squares on screen in rhythmic sequence.
