DJ Needs A Phone Too
Yanko Design —
Are you one of those musically inclined people who love to jam at the drop of a hat? Designer Jose Tomas DeLuna thinks that there is a market for the creative music junkies who like to mix their music on the go. As a result he has conceptualized KRE8, which is mobile phone but has plenty of musically enhanced features. It’s a device that bridges musical creativity and communication.
First lets talk about the physical features: KRE8 splits into two and uses sensors and accelerometers to figure out the gestures you are making. Broadly there are three modes in the system: Instrument Mode (guitar, drums, violin), Mix Mode and Record Mode. So based on the gesture inputs, ...
This kre-8 cellphone concept is ony for music buffs
MobileCrunch —
This is one of the better concepts I’ve seen ’round these parts, and I see plenty of them. It’s called the kre-8 (the name could use some work, yes), and it’s a cellphone designed, as it were, for those who fancy themselves as DJs, music creators, etc.
So what is it, and why should you care? Its designer, one Jose Tomas DeLuna , describes it as “the next-generation music tool/communication device for the musically creative and the aspiring musician as well.” That covers just about everyone on planet Earth, right?
Like the iPhone, the kre-8 would be outfitted with a touchscreen and an ...

KRE8 Makes Music on the Go
Designer Jose Tomas DeLuna has created the KRE8 that is aimed at creative music junkies who love to mix music at all times of the day. The KRE8 is both a mobile phone and mobile music creator bundled in to one cool looking device.
It currently is in concept stages which means normally that it’s just an idea and a design without much thought of the technical aspect. Looking at the device it seems like it could be made with today’s technology though.
First lets talk about the ...
kre-8: Un concepto para amantes de la música
Gizmología —
A través de MobileCrunch llegué a este concepto que si no fuera concepto nos emocionaría a todos (al menos a todos aquellos que nos gusta la música). El móvil se llama kre-8 y fue diseñado por Jose Tomas DeLuna, quien explica que el móvil es “la nueva generación de herramienta para la música y la comunicación para músicos y aspirante”.
El móvil tendría pantalla táctil y acelerómetro, como el iPhone. El acelerómetro es básico en este teléfono ya que dependiendo de cómo lo mantengas se “convertirá” en un instrumento, un mixer y una grabadora.
Algo realmente interesante es que la ...
Motorola KR8 concept: An ultimate DJ friendly phone
Tech Ticker —
If this phone ever comes to the market, the phones providing few seconds of excitement with DJ turntables will be a thing of the past. KR8 (pronounced as create) is the brainchild of Jose Thomas DeLuna that will allow DJs to create tunes on the go.
A user can create or edit tracks with the help of glass touchscreen that makes up for the absence of knobs, sliders or toggles along with other DJ centric features to play with. It will also integrate GPS to geo-tag user’s creation that can notify another KR8 user to hear the mix of the previous user. ...

Concept Design For New DJ Phone Takes Design Aspects from Wiimote, Pacemaker
Wired: Gadget Lab —
A young designer has came up with a phone concept that smashes together design elements from Nintendo's Wiimote, Tonium's Pacemaker Portable DJ, and the iPhone to make an interesting portable music system.
Jose Tomas DeLuna came up with his KRE8 project during a school design session sponsored by Motorola, and the result shows the difficulty of scaling down a full-bodied DJ or music system to a small portable. Previous attempts have involved complicated dial systems (Pacemaker), or PMP versions with crippled tuning apps.
DeLuna decided that the best way to increase functionality was by splitting the phone into ...
