Pharrell Williams’ innovative app book will (literally) make you Happy

It might seem crazy what I’m about to say…

Armed with a shiny new iPad but glum at your inability to craft a cracking pop tune? Start your path to chart-topping greatness with Learn Pharrell Williams’ Happy (£4.49). This interactive tome, which has been developed by Pharrell’s own Tuniversity company, delves into the inspiration behind the hit track, enabling you to deconstruct it by way of fiddling about with mini mixing desks and loops. The appish book then hurls a couple of GarageBand projects your way via email and gives you a helping hand at remaking the song in your own image. Yes, it even asks you to sing. No, Stuff does not want you to send in your versions of the track. Two Happy-shaped earworms are enough for any one lifetime, thanks.

About

I’m a regular contributor to Stuff magazine and Stuff.tv, covering apps, games, Apple kit, Android, Lego, retro gaming and other interesting oddities. I also pen opinion pieces when the editor lets me, getting all serious about accessibility and predicting when sentient AI smart cookware will take over the world, in a terrifying mix of Bake Off and Terminator.

Areas of expertise

Mobile apps and games, Macs, iOS and tvOS devices, Android, retro games, crowdfunding, design, how to fight off an enraged smart saucepan with a massive stick.
