The Akai APC40, shown above getting a workout with a Freestylers/Noisia/BustaRhymes/Dillinja remix/mashup, has gotten a lot of people psyched about hardware controllers for Ableton Live.

Ableton should do a similar contest, but leave it open to any control interface setup as long as Ableton is the software being used. I could do something very similar to this, except with my Korg Zero-8, Ableton Live, and an electro / fidget / indie-dance mix.
