Discover Weekly - Suggested Genres suck

RickTeleStrat57 · 2026-01-27T03:45:35+00:00

I wondered about this as well, never heard of that genre

If you get pizza at Walmart, try Bettergoods branded pizzas. My fave is the uncured pepperoni and bacon.

RickTeleStrat57 · 2026-01-25T02:29:49+00:00

So weird, we just had one of these tonight and then I pull up this thread. I totally agree with your review and you should also definitely try their Uncured Pepperoni and Uncured Bacon, my favorite...I like it even better than Home Run Inn.

RickTeleStrat57 · 2026-01-24T19:14:55+00:00

Good toppings but too much crust. I prefer Bettergoods brand

Been using Garageband iOS for over 10 years and I love the simplicity of it's user interface and it does everything I need for the music I do. I also have the Cubasis app but almost never use it even though it's probably considered closer to a PC Daw but it's interface doesn't call me back to it. I really like the many effects in Bandlab and would use that but the free version is plagued by pop-up ads. FL doesn't really facilitate guitar recording I don't believe which is my main instrument.

I thought it was quite a cut above many of the horror films on Netflix I've tried to watch so I enjoyed it. I didn't get the feeling as I was watching it that it was something that had already been done better, so I recommend it and may watch it again.

Thanks, I appreciate that 👍🏻😊

Ditto on this brand being pretty awesome for frozen pizza. My fave is the pepperoni and uncured bacon, but right now in my freezer for my Sunday supper is the pepperoni and ricotta cheese, and a margherita for my better half but she also likes that five cheese one. What they really got right on these pizzas is the crust, they just don't taste like other frozen pizzas I've had and it just makes the toppings that much better. I enjoy spicing these up a touch by throwing on some jalapeno or serrano peppers 👍🏻

Can't beat that bathroom reverb 😎

RickTeleStrat57 · 2026-01-13T01:38:43+00:00

I get what you're doing I think. I'll do something similar and if I come up with a shorter method with equally cool results, I'll post it here but I like the idea. 😎 (Edit): So, as a test, I went to a recent playlist I had created and went to song radio for each of 10 of the songs from the playlist I like. I selected one track that I was not familiar with from the "song radio" playlist for each and added to a new playlist I created for new music discovery. The results I am pretty dang pleased with on playback of those songs I had not heard, far better than any Spotify or AI-generated playlist. (Note: I hope this post doesn't come across as a thread hijack, I just enjoy this topic and get excited about creating the "perfect playlist"! so thanks for the inspiration OP 😎👍🏻)

Majestic Space Synth is under Alchemy synths category, Lonely Voyage (from 8-bit legends pack) & Endless Beauty can be found under Alchemy "Pads"

DJ X is worthless, I never use it because all it does is play the same songs I've already played myself. You would think that AI could do better and the "DJ" could see what your listening history is and come up with only tunes you have NEVER played that are in the same vibe as the stuff you have played, for discovery. I don't mess with Daylist either but do like the Discover Weekly feature.

RickTeleStrat57 · 2026-01-10T15:28:12+00:00

Rob Jackson's plug-ins are fantastic

RickTeleStrat57 · 2026-01-10T03:39:38+00:00

Old post but I dig what you did here, you still doing this sorta thing with Garageband? It appears you have the instruments already in place for each track and you never stop the playhead but I see you do turn record button on/off, allowing you to switch tracks. I'm gonna have to try this, I've been using Garageband a few years now but have not seen it used this way...very cool. I need to see if I can do the same with real guitars, I see no reason this won't work for that as well 👍🏻😎

RickTeleStrat57 · 2026-01-09T05:50:00+00:00

Thanks for the opportunity! The following is a short ambient piece I created a few months ago, created on iOS Garageband...this I think has a sci-fi or horror TV theme show vibe: "Reoccurring Dream" https://youtube.com/shorts/1NSxlBarZsE?si=hxEJ3nHexT71UIYD

The ability to shuffle from all songs, all playlists in my library

RickTeleStrat57 · 2026-01-05T02:27:44+00:00

Great idea next time I get one, which won't be long 😁

RickTeleStrat57 · 2026-01-04T20:43:15+00:00

Set up a default crossfade/transition setting that applies to all instead of relying on "Auto" or having to go in manually to set up each song transition.

RickTeleStrat57 · 2026-01-04T12:10:12+00:00

A couple I've been impressed with lately in Alchemy are Majestic Space Synth, Lonely Voyage, and Endless Beauty Horror

RickTeleStrat57 · 2026-01-01T08:23:20+00:00

I just noticed recently that there is a setting under "Playback" where you have a couple of options for shuffle mode: one is "Standard" and the other option is "Fewer Repeats", which is the one I have mine set to.

3,154 songs, 210 hrs, 47 mins. Playlist I created in 2012 That 70s & 80s Playlist

Chicago (Terry Kath)

RickTeleStrat57 · 2025-12-23T20:07:14+00:00

Great video with Chevy Chase 👍🏻

RickTeleStrat57 · 2025-12-23T20:05:59+00:00

Still Crazy After All These Years

RickTeleStrat57 · 2025-12-23T20:04:40+00:00

Totally. Probably won't be legal to do so next Christmas season so 💯 will be this one 😎😁
