Phrenia

Valerie
Phrenia is a Japanese pop singer that has recently made her debut EP available for free download on Jamendo. It's under a creative commons license and one of the few compilations from a Japanese artist straight pop lovers can enjoy. The album is filled with five electronic dance pop tracks that reminds me of those wonderful Japanese anime soundtracks. Phrenia has actually released a previous single on Jamendo as well, titled Yami No Conduct. Compared to her first release, this self-titled debut features tracks with a less prominent rock flair; instead it's mostly all pop. Nevertheless, it's still very enjoyable if you adore J-pop. Grab the download.

Camino

Want more options when it comes to your browser? Camino could offer you plenty. Created and formatted based on Mozilla's Gecko layout engine, the browser provides you with all the features regular Mac users need and so much more. This open source browser was initially created to serve as an alternative to the Firefox browser for Mac. It offers all the basic features users have come to expect from any browser, from pop-up blocking to movable tab windows; but it also adds a couple of new and personal features. Camino was created by the Camino Project with Mike Pinkerton handling the technical lead. Check it out by giving it a download on the main project website or right here at Frostclick.

Zenith Part 2

Kademlia
ZENITH is a retro-futuristic steam-punk thriller, about two men in two time periods, whose search for the same grand conspiracy leads them to question their own humanity. Starting from a fictional recreation of Stanley Milgram's Obedience to Authority experiment (see more on the experiment in Background and Influences), ZENITH plunges into following two parallel stories - of father and son - now, and 40 years into the future.

Kruunu

Valerie
Kruunu is a nice little platformer that was released on January 18th. This is the first project for Finnish game developer, Jukio Kallio, after going into game development full time. The game lets you play as a tiny blue character whose goal is to climb a tower and take the crown. Why are you aiming to climb this really high tower just to receive this crown? Apparently, elders in the land believe that whoever gets it will become the next ruler. Hence, your adventure and trials begin. Even though Kallio admits that the game was simply a part time project done in a span of months, it doesn't look like it was rushed or done haphazardly. It's actually a neat little platformer that almost anybody can enjoy.

Surveillance Screensaver

Valerie
When was the last time you got excited over a screensaver? If you just said, you can't remember, then check out Surveillance Screensaver. This amazing screensaver lets you access over 400 surveillance cameras worldwide! Everytime you look at your screen, you get to play an amateur detective or a voyeur because pretty much, you get a live feed of what's happening in a particular area in some part of the world. This awesome screensaver runs on a Mac OSX or a Windows and is definitely worth having. It's a bit addictive since every moment you look at the screen, you half expect something important to happen and don't want to miss out. Definitely a cool piece of screensaver you should have.

Rei Teytum: Viajeros

Natalie
A wonderful fusion of rock, funk, folk, jazz, brass with some great sounding guitar, percussion, violin, viola, keyboards, trumpet, sax, bagpipes!?, and yes, even harmonica. It seems that Rei Teytum have it all, except of course for an English version of their bio anywhere on the Internet. So it is times like this that I wish I spoke more languages to bring you important information about the artists. But since that will simply not happen lets focus on their fantastic album, "Viajeros""Travelers", and the tiny bits of band history I was able to get (courtesy of my friend Google Translate).

Manic Marble Free

Valerie
If you adore the many marble rolling games and apps available, you'll certainly enjoy Manic Marble. A freeware game, this one is done completely in 3D so it's definitely something new compared to the old school 2D marble rolling games or applications. The game was created by Richard Olson and thanks to the rendering it's become quite realistic and interactive. Some people have even reported experiencing motion sickness while playing the game. If in case you do, you might want to stop playing the game altogether. Meanwhile, for those who do have a stronger stomach, the game is available for free download under iTunes.
