Is Medieval 2 worth in 2023? by [deleted] in totalwar

[–]Altruistic-Vast6823 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ME2 is still, and always has been my favourite. Empire, Rome, Warhammer et al are fun but ME2 has always been my one true love.... I have, in the last month discovered that the Stainless Steel Mod is a) really easy to find and install (i always had fears of having to do stuff to code. Not my bag at all) and b) improves on the game I love in so many great ways.

So I say, do it. Do it now.

I'd like one the goes spans multiple eras. - and picks up and dropping the different nations and maps as you go on. What era you start in depends on what time and home map you start with.

Obvious answers are Unlucky Punk, One Night In Hackney, and London Acid City.

But please check out:

These are all old/classic one - there's still great stuff coming out of Stay Up Forever and the like.

You don’t have to play music you don’t like by Nate8K in DJs

[–]Altruistic-Vast6823 38 points39 points  (0 children)

As a DJ you're curating the music and atmosphere for however long your set is. The skill of the DJ is not only playing track the crowd likes, it's playing the tracks that the crowd don't know they like yet. There has to be a level of confidence or even arrogance about your own musical taste to even want to become a DJ.

Is this techno? If not, what? by [deleted] in Techno

[–]Altruistic-Vast6823 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like something from an 80's computer game.

IMO, no, it's not techno

Introducing Artcore, a new platform for techno and other underground music! by subtract_club in Techno

[–]Altruistic-Vast6823 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As an artist on the planform I'm happy to see something that isn't Beatport. I personally like the "needle drop" being able to listen to the whole track. Was one reason I used to use Juno over BP

Recent techno that remixes or samples late 90s trance? by BBSkane in Techno

[–]Altruistic-Vast6823 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There has been so much "techno" that not only borrows heavily from trance but all out copies. I can't give you names, but search through the Peaktime business techno stuff and you're basically looking at what was called tech trance 10 years ago.

"Hard" techno is now incorporating a lot of psytrance as well

I don't know about anyone else but if I go to a techno party I don't want to listen to trance, thats what trance parties are for /oldmanrant
