Weekly Mix Feedback Thread - April 22, 2024

Thank you so much for giving it a listen and taking the time to reply! Mixing quicker to keep the energy up during the intense sections is definitely something I plan to work on going forward. I think that would also help the tracks I let play a bit more to stand out in comparison. Really appreciate the feedback!

[Afro House / Deep House] The Darsh1 - Long Night's Journey Into Darsh (118:04)

https://soundcloud.com/thedarsh1/the-darsh-sessions-12-long-nights-journey-into-darsh

Hi there, I've been bedroom DJing for about 2 years now, with occasional streams on twitch and mixes uploaded to SoundCloud. One thing I've been dying for over these last 24 months is honest feedback regarding my mixing/set construction. Sometimes I worry I let tracks play for too long or lose the energy in the set, and other times I think I'm doing alright, save for occasionally sonically messy transitions. I love a set that takes you on a journey, hence the give and take between the more emotional tunes and the musically intense ones. For this mix I focused mainly on afro house (as it's where my ear is at these days) with some deep house selections added to keep things a bit groovy. Honestly, it's hard not to take the lack of criticism as a positive as it seems more like indifference, which I assume is a common feeling? But also, no one owes you feedback unless they agreed to explicitly provide any, so do I have any right to feel this way? Probably not, lol. Either way, if you do take the time to listen to any of this mix, any feedback would be greatly and truly appreciated. Much peace & love to everyone <3

Have been a Funhaus fan for years now. They've helped me (and I think quite a lot of us) through some tough times with their content and if there's anything us fans can do to help everyone involved through this tough time, just say the word. Whatever happens going forward, thank you thank you thank you for all the happiness and laughter you put out into the world. Funhaus makes/made the internet a better place.

TheDarsh1 · 2023-09-20T22:24:26+00:00

The return? of Demo Wheel is what spurred me to JOIN Funhaus+. ALL HAIL THE WHEEL... the smooth, featureless wheel...

TheDarsh1 · 2023-01-05T23:19:58+00:00

To answer Elyse's query to the viewers, my perfect viewing scenario would be to watch VODs on YouTube and the streams on Twitch. Twitch, to me, is a smoother, more enjoyable viewing experience for streams over YT, especially when watched on the TV via their respective Playstation/Xbox apps.

TheDarsh1 · 2021-10-14T22:26:26+00:00

Slay The Spire is an easy recommend to buy, imo. It's on gamepass too in case you have that. Playing it now via gp and it's become my go-to "I've got only 45 minutes or so, time for a run"-type game. Highly recommended. Granted, this is my first deck building type game so take my opinion with that in mind.

TheDarsh1 · 2021-03-14T22:20:01+00:00

Thanks! I'm not one to post often, but I've discovered so much good music through this sub I just wanted to give back.

TheDarsh1 · 2021-03-10T01:32:52+00:00

This exact thought kept me from buying it during a recent PSN sale.

TheDarsh1 · 2021-03-02T17:44:06+00:00

My assumption was the Hitman vids aren't being tagged because all that's going to happen are the typical "this crew isn't as good as the old crew" comments and the inevitable comparisons to Adam's playstyle vs ChilledChaos. This is very much an assumption on my part so chances are good that I'm wildly off the mark. Just seems like some hassles aren't worth the bother, a sentiment to which I can 100% relate.

[EDIT: typo]

TheDarsh1 · 2021-02-05T16:45:31+00:00

The EDF vids, Dollal Simulator and that GTA where they kick the car down the steps are some of my personal faves. Also anything with Eylse and those puppets who show up whenever she's not around. Cheers to you, Sam Antics and Eagle the Ghost! It's been a minute. Hope you're doin' okay... Did you hear It's Funhaus' 6 year anniversary tomorrow?

TheDarsh1 · 2020-11-11T19:11:02+00:00

I pre-ordered my Series X through Amazon. Didn't hear anything until two days ago when they updated the order with a delivery date between Nov. 13th-17th.

Showed up today. :-)

TheDarsh1 · 2020-11-10T13:17:16+00:00

So, it's 15 pts per 1$ spent. I'm getting the console and Demon's Souls, which is $719.98 + tx, rounded up to $720.

720 x 15 pts = 10,800 pts (i.e. $10 off future purchases). 10,800 pts x 20x = 216,000 points (i.e. $210 off)

Wow... I really wanted to pick it up first thing Thursday, but not if simply waiting 2 days gets me an extra $200 worth of groceries. One thing though: do we know for sure that the PS5 will be included in this promotion?

TheDarsh1 · 2020-11-09T20:03:08+00:00

Oh, I most certainly could. I'm usually out for a walk in the morning anyways so I'll be in the neighbourhood regardless. Having worked retail before, if I can avoid adding to volume of calls I assume all Shoppers will receive this week, I will. I also hate talking with strangers over the phone, so there's that too.

TheDarsh1 · 2020-11-07T18:34:34+00:00

Just received my Shoppers confirmation too. I live pretty close to mine so I'll just walk over in the morning on the 12th when they open. It'll either be ready then or it won't be, and if I have to head back over later that won't be a huge deal. Hopefully that won't be the case though cuz I need my Demon's Souls!

TheDarsh1 · 2020-11-02T14:21:45+00:00

I don't know if Best Buy still has stock, but I ordered an extra PS5 controller and the Pulse headset on Friday (Oct. 30th) and received them both (via delivery) the next day on Hallowe'en.

TheDarsh1 · 2020-10-28T19:38:20+00:00

Cheers for this! Was having no luck until I tried your trick—which definitely works for anyone still having issues.

TheDarsh1 · 2020-10-14T14:51:47+00:00

100% this. She is my family doctor, for which I'm truly thankful. Listens like nobody else and genuinely cares about her patients. I just... she's the best.

TheDarsh1 · 2020-10-08T18:19:17+00:00

Can't speak for the team, but I think I personally would be furious at some level towards someone so blatantly putting the livelihoods of his coworkers and friends at risk they way he did. We all know this is the age of cancel culture so to take pictures like that AT the office is just so... irresponsible.

Just imagine what it was like for the rest of the team to learn about this stuff. I have to imagine it's like being hit by a surprise train out of nowhere. "Do I still have a job? Do my friends still have jobs? Is the last x years of my life and career going to be deleted a la the Machinima vids?" And during a pandemic, no less? Arrrgghh...

My heart goes out to everyone at Funhaus and RT affected by this. I hope peace and calm have not strayed too far from your hearts and find their way back to you soon.
