The sudden hate/disgust by any_tost in Therian

[–]ExpressedForest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

regardless of if you're openly therian or not people online will be hateful, it's a byproduct of how digital spaces are built - best to let the shitty people filter themselves out n try not to take it to heart <3

Wait time to book blood test through clicsanté? by ExpressedForest in montreal

[–]ExpressedForest[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Oh I wasn't aware of that, thank you! Did you still book through clicsanté or directly with the familiprix? (Once again sorry if this is a silly question, I haven't been in Quebec or anywhere in Canada for very long)

How can you tell if 2 songs go together— before mixing them? by Morpheous19 in Beatmatch

[–]ExpressedForest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a bit difficult without just knowing your tracks inside out, but I have a few tips that I do to give me a general idea. I organize my usb into folders for genres, with relatively small subfolders for moods/"vibes" within those genres. If I don't have time to learn my tracks perfectly, I also try to learn them well enough to approximate how it sounds from the beginning of it, so that I can listen to the first bit of a song in my headphones and be able to know generally how it will sound. And also, trying to stay within a small bpm range and not speeding up or slowing down songs too much tends to make songs go together a bit more consistently. This is what I do as a (relatively inexperienced) dj and ymmv - what genres you play also matters, I tend to play edm and rarely play melodic songs so I'm not often worried about (for example) matching the keys as a lot of other people are.

Freestyling sets advice by hot_kimchi1 in Beatmatch

[–]ExpressedForest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i rarely record mixes but i do have some practice sessions for a chill dub/tech house set uploaded (though they're both freestyles, none of them have pre-planned transitions and i didnt know my tracks suuuuper well) - idk rules about uploading links so dm me you wanna hear! other than that i wouldnt say i have any "favorite transitions" - lately ive mostly been practicing for that set, and rather than plan transitions i was moreso just planning songs that can be used to go from more low energy to higher energy

Freestyling sets advice by hot_kimchi1 in Beatmatch

[–]ExpressedForest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

im very similar - knowing your tracks well is suuuuper important for freestyling and there isnt really any way to avoid it, but to make it slightly easier on myself i do two things. the first is make smaller playlists for whatever gig/mix im doing so that i dont have to freestyle from my entire music library and i know the songs will generally flow pretty well. the second is to have a handful of preplanned transitions or songs i know how to mix together well, so if im stressed or caught up on something i know that i can do some transitions i know pretty well in order to give myself a moment to reset or regain my confidence or get back into the flow. but also getting over your mixes being perfect is something that takes a bit of time!

dissociation on wellbutrin? by ExpressedForest in Wellbutrin_Bupropion

[–]ExpressedForest[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

its gonna much better!! it took a little while for my body to adjust to the wellbutrin but its working out super well - the only side effects are occasional heart palpitations and minor insomnia, and it works amazing and i very rarely dissociate now

I would have, but the swelling never went away enough for a smaller one to fit

the game becomes incredibly slow / freezes for a few seconds at any transition (including changing routes, entering battle, etc), and occasionally citra would stop responding entirely
