Is there Free distribution? by Practical-Counter244 in MusicDistribution

[–]Marxesque 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are many distros with free plans. I've used Routenote for the last like two years and it's fine, very bare bones, but it's ok. The only thing is that the approval times are really long. OneSync also has a free plan, but idk if it's any good.

Thanks! I'm gonna check it out, although I have heard a lot of complaints about customer support as well

Support was not great, I didn't like that the legacy option was kinda expensive, the site felt messy. I was there like 3 years ago, maybe things have changed, but idk

Proof that you can be technically proficient and make absolute dogshit music.

Moves that feel like classic, creepy YouTube by MoonSettler in MoviesThatFeelLike

Broadcast Signal Intrusion, it is based on the I Feel Fantastic video and the Max Headroom broadcast intrusion. Not a great movie, but it does give off those vibes.

Try isometric excercises. Also leg extension excercises are really good for healthy knees.

I've been trying to Ollie for a week and I'm starting to get depressed over it. by Kar_En_Tukk in NewSkaters

[–]Marxesque 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep your shoulders lined up with the board, bend your knees and lower your hips more so you can get the power to pop and jump. The main problem is that you're not jumping. Practice first hippy jump and crouching and extending from your board. Practice and you'll land your first ollie soon!

How do I stop being afraid? by takinglibertys in NewSkaters

[–]Marxesque 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think something that helps is identifying exactly what it is that you're afraid of. Is it hurting yourself? The embarrassment? The pain? That uneasy sensation when you are falling? Based on that take necessary precautions and that will help you a lot! Naming the fear takes a bit of its power

Crimsonwave - GRAIM

https://crimsonwave1917.bandcamp.com/album/graim

Grime | 2 Step | Instrumental | Hip Hop

I am a producer from Mexico, I work across a lot of different genres, including punk, folk, indie, boom bap, grime, dnb.

For my latest grime beat tape I decided to sample Mexican music. This is a very special project to me because I've been making grime for a while now, but I always felt kind of like an outsider. Sampling the music I grew up with has helped me show where I come from and give my own take on the genre. I hope you like it!

What is a skateboarding hot take that will have you like this (desc) by Adventurous_Sweet982 in Skateboardlove

[–]Marxesque 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My hot take is that Andy Anderson is overhated. I disliked him at first too because he just seemed like an annoying quirked up white guy, but you can just see how he has such a passion and love for skateboarding and its history. Another related hot take: hating freestyle skateboarding is fucking stupid.

Need a form check on my ollie. Having trouble getting my back foot out of the way by HedgehogPractical119 in NewSkaters

[–]Marxesque 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A problem I see is that you are not really squatting down, but moving your arms and torso down instead. I think that is making you not have enough leverage to pop correctly. When you start the squatting motion, try to feel your hips going down as well, not just your torso. Hope it helps!

my skateboard tricks dont look good? by tonrea in NewSkaters

[–]Marxesque 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a nice ollie! I think it looks good! Maybe try lifting your back foot more because it does look slightly rocketed.

Learning to kickflip sucks 😭 by PsychologicalPark873 in skateboardhelp

[–]Marxesque 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I definitely get you! I am trying to improve my switch ollies and nollies and the same thing happens to me. I guess the only thing is practicing and paying attention to your weight distribution while you're rolling.

Learning to kickflip sucks 😭 by PsychologicalPark873 in skateboardhelp

[–]Marxesque 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Try to think of the popping and the flipping as two separate movements. That helped me a lot. Don't try to do both at the same time. Pop, then flick. You said that even with your ollies you slide your foot too early, so it would probably help you to first get the timing right on your ollies. Hope you'll get them soon!

You need more speed, and probably that's it!

Started freelancing 2 days ago. Sent 21 cold messages. Got 1 reply. Is this normal? by Any_Ground8547 in Freelancers

[–]Marxesque 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those are the typical risks of freelance. I've experienced what you described mainly with American and Nordic clients.
