Now, The Pyramid has been around for a few years and few have attempted to outdo it. Until now, sort of. French house DJ, Etienne De Crecy has started putting together another slightly different but nonetheless impressive stage. Sticking to the theme of 3D objects, De Crecy prefers to work with the cube rather than the pyramid:

De Crecy has been in the music biz for a number of years now but is hardly a phenomenon yet. Definitely looking forward to seeing what he can pull off with more fans and more money, though.

So far, one of the few complaints I’ve had is that there’s no simple built-in image editor. At least, none that I’ve found yet.
