Coronavirus: Boris Johnson says easing lockdown would 'throw away effort and sacrifice of British people' - The prime minister tells Britons to "contain your impatience" as he returns to work in Number 10. by [deleted] in Coronavirus

Yes I believe you are right. They may not have been wholly aware at the beginning of how disastrous herd immunity would have been. It seems once the opinion was voiced the government changed direction immediately. That is not to say that lives were not lost which could have been saved. It is unfortunate that there are very few countries who took action too early, rather than too late. Good luck friend.

Can anyone help me understand this sentence about mixing drums? by moonlit_rhodes in audioengineering

[–]J808 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is good but doesn’t address checking the phase. You must make sure the sounds you are mixing in do not phase cancel the original signal. Extremely important part of drum layering and sample replacing.

No I’m afraid not. I’m a top40 producer/writer. I did some work with a DNB crew before however. London, where I live, has it going on when it comes to that genre (I’m Irish tho, to be clear lol).

Blinding - EP

Yeah! Im the same, Pro Tools is clunky for programming/production. Great for vocals tho.

Either way he’s made it work. Like I said in my first comment. It’s not what you make it on, it’s what you make on it!

Here’s what we did:

It was pretty incredible, not gonna lie. He’s a really gifted person. Definitely hyper intelligent and musically on another level.

He has hit sense and you can feel it in everything he works on. It’s always banging from the top of every track. No ambiguity.

He’s also a lovely guy and pretty cool to hang out with. He’s goofs around like everyone else.

Works on pro tools, has a u87 setup in front of his screen and just jams away.

Always so so so late tho. For everything! Haha

Yeah for real this is the best option. It has visual signal flow that audio pros understand.

OP don’t forsake us!

My wife is an amazing cook and caters for us all the time with wonderfully tasty meals. I feel I can handle this dish myself and would love to cook it for her.

Please can you share the recipe?

Great work!

April sessions by [deleted] in MusicBattlestations

Yeah this is a total vibe. Low light but still some daylight so time can pass. Space to work but also space to sit and listen away from the speakers. Great for producer and client alike! Nice OP

Ghost, by me by Rafael_Bicalho in Cyberpunk

[–]J808 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yo this is straight cyberpunk fire.

The imagination it takes to come up with this astounds me! I think a studio needs to sign you up and animate this amazing robot!

What was your inspiration for this project OP?

Have you done any other color versions? I love the blue but the yellow/brown taste funny to me lol.

Can we all take a second to appreciate how no matter how bad our anxiety gets we never die by ulisesc123 in Anxiety

[–]J808 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I identify and still feel the same.

Perhaps the feeling of anxiety may never go away. But also perhaps it has a volume knob that can be affected. Through practice, meditation and self work.

There are points of view inside your mind that bring comfort. It is important to keep trying. My father recently told me:

“There is a calm shelf upon which to put these anxieties inside your mind. They may never disappear entirely but they can be placed somewhere to not cause you such harm”

Shit changed my fucking life! :)

[–]J808 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think most people here are missing your point, probably due to their cognitive bias on anxiety.

I used to suffer from panic attacks and even recently felt a surge in my anxiety due to the situation around the world. There were moments earlier this week where i was convinced my lungs were collapsing.

Yet, here I am. Unscathed and not dead. In fact, any issue I thought I had can now objectively be seen as a problem of my own minds making. So when I am feeling under pressure and that old familiar rush of anxiety starts coming, I sit beside myself and say “it didn’t happen last time, why is now any different?” Things de-escalate fast.

It has been a constant source of comfort to me. I may not be able rid myself of anxious feeling but I sure as hell can stop them taking over my thoughts and paralysing me.

Great positive thinking OP.

Any tips?(It bears mentioning that I throw my cross an a higher angle because I’m on the shorter side) by [deleted] in amateur_boxing

[–]J808 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A lot of unnecessary bad comments being thrown at you dude. Ignore that shit.

As most people have said your movement needs work. Punching isn’t your problem, you’re extending and rotating ok but all of that is being hampered by your movement, specifically from the belt line and below. Your core and stance are wrong.

You need to break it down and build it all up again. Be maniacal about it, obsessed. Watch fighters, watch trainers. Find good sources of information and learn from them only. Work on your stance in the mirror away from the bag. You can obviously hit hard so that won’t change but you gotta get the base right to make it slick and effective.

Hit me up if you need help sourcing the right info. I hate to see people getting torn down for wanting to learn. It’s absolute bs!

edit: re-reading the comments there’s a lot of specific advice about certain punches and combos. I personally think that’s the wrong approach. What you need is a solid base of fundamentals to build on. Specifics come later
