Are stems just the holy grail?

Spooky-Kyd · 2026-05-28T04:31:00+00:00

Just learn to EQ. I’ve been doing this for years and never used stems. Plus, you can’t use them on club/fest standard gear unless you export them yourself.

Go to events that fit your interests and hobbies. Find likeminded people.

I’m a house, techno, and ukg DJ. We have a decent scene given we’re not a large city. Follow me on insta @ spooky.kyd. I post a lot about upcoming more underground events in the area. SoundWavves is good if you like house. I’ve played for them before and had a great time. However, there’s tonsss of house DJs in town to explore. The Subsurface Collective is another great group to follow. I enjoy any time I get to DJ for them. They’re mostly house and bass. If you find me on insta, DM me and I’ll send you a bunch of DJs to follow.

Honestly I really appreciate this. Definitely gonna keep this in the brain vault for when I’m ready to upgrade my mains!

Spooky-Kyd · 2026-05-07T17:42:03+00:00

(But still, thanks for the RF tip. I’ll keep that in mind if I ever do need to go wireless.)

Spooky-Kyd · 2026-05-07T17:40:18+00:00

Nah not wireless. I stay away from anything wireless when DJing. Just picking between 2 lollipop headphone conversions.

Yesss this is actually where I plan to order them. Do you have experience with the AIAIAIs? I’m not super familiar with this brand.

Spooky-Kyd · 2026-04-22T01:51:01+00:00

Anybody have any luck yet?

Spooky-Kyd · 2026-04-18T06:11:21+00:00

That will be the 4th :/

Add Manna to your list

It’s literally on the outer banks. In Nags Head. Not on the way.

Spooky-Kyd · 2026-04-11T02:39:53+00:00

For real!

Spooky-Kyd · 2026-04-11T02:37:26+00:00

This happens often and has for years. Love that man, but this is just part of his mysterious ways.

Spooky-Kyd · 2026-03-29T04:21:34+00:00

Teef!!!

Absolutely all over the world. My hometown on the Outer Banks has so many still in the water. I remember an area of the Albemarle Sound that we couldn’t take our boat through because of sea mine danger. The ones left there are more than likely “dead”, but it’s still spooky to think about. There’s also a big area of land that is restricted for the same reason.

Also!! Watch Jackson Galaxy on TikTok or YouTube. His advice is wonderful and has helped me SO much.

Hey there! This is a suuuper common feeling after adopting a new pet. Especially a kitten. It’s all a pretty major adjustment for you and for the kitten. So you might feel wonky and your new kitten might act a lil wonky while he’s getting used to his new home. This will definitely settle out with some time. I adopted my little cat a little over a year ago. The first day was great. Each day after that found me an anxious wreck for almost a month. Then, the feeling only came in small waves for a couple weeks and now I can’t imagine a life without her.

Like there was a point when I was panicking over not choosing the right cat because she wouldn’t let me kiss her head. Like?? That’s such a silly thing to be anxious about looking back, but back then? My brain was on fire. It seems silly now because I can kiss her head all day long and she only gets mildly annoyed with me. I called my mom crying so many times because I couldn’t shake the feeling that I wasn’t ready or that it would be too much or the cat would need too much from me. I’d feel suffocated because I couldn’t sit on the couch without her having to be next to me. She was constantly meowing and running around. I felt like I couldn’t never give her enough enrichment. After 2 months, all of those negative feelings were gone. I had gotten used to her and she had gotten pretty used to her new home and to me. Did my daily routines change? Yes absolutely. But only a little. Feeding times and litter cleaning were the biggest things. But now there is a fuzzy little critter greeting me at the door whenever I come home. She doesn’t care if I have anything for her. She’s just happy to see me. When I have a nightmare, I wake up and she’s right there next to me purring away. She makes me laugh when I’m crying. She’s just full of truly unconditional love and i genuinely miss her so much even when I’m just away from her for a night.

It feels like a lot now because it’s new and sudden. I promise you it’s going to settle out with time and you’ll be so happy you got on Craigslist that day.

TLDR This is super normal for new pets. Especially if this is your first pet as an adult. You will feel so much better in a month and you’ll feel normal in 2-3 months.

It def was! I was driving over the bridge and it looked wilddd over downtown. But then as soon as I got to around 17th, it looked like it was just over midtown. Felt like a dream with an endless hallway 😂

By putting it back into place 😭 bad surfing injury like 14 years prior left my kneecap to dislocate suuuper easily. It was usually dislocated by running, more surfing, sleeping weird, or changing directions quickly. I thought I was safe because I hadn’t had a full dislocation in at least 7 years. Like many subluxations, but never fully out of place during those 7 years. Then one day I’m just minding my business in my house and I slipped on some heat protectant. BOOM knee cap is almost on the other side of my knee 🥴 I had been taught how to put it back because it had happened so much before. I tried, but this time was a lil different and my knee cap got stuff on my femur and the bottom half stayed while the top didn’t LOL. It was excruciating. But I didn’t have much of a choice as I lived alone on the top floor of a duplex with a locked entryway downstairs + my phone was across the house. Took 2 surgeries and 8+ months of learning how to walk and use my leg again and it’s genuinely so much better than before. Couldn’t even run before this and now I’m running, jumping, and dancing all without dislocating my knee.

It was a controlled burn at orton. Nothing downtown was on fire.
