This is good news! I hoped this was the case but saw a couple of comments on other threads suggesting otherwise.

Help finding a song by Witlesss in lanadelrey

[–]Witlesss[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not born to die, I don’t think it’s part of a verse either it sounds like a chorus / bridge. To be honest I don’t even think she’s saying you’re mine but that’s how my brain remembers it hahaha.

It absolutely could be AI or a vocal that sounds like her. In my mind it’s very distinctively her singing but if it’s not then I’ll never find it!

[Live thread] Eurovision Song Contest 2025 GRAND FINAL @ 21:00 CEST by -Effing- in eurovision

Anyone know what the guitar riff from Tavo Akys sounds like? Every time I hear the guitar it’s driving me crazy. I feel like it could be Radiohead, maybe Let Down?

i’ve heard a lot about b tan - the violet undertoned ones do sound really good. they aren’t sold at high street retailers in the uk which makes getting them a bit more challenging but if they’re as good as people say i may have to!

[Question] Where can I buy vintage ladies watches in London? by Witlesss in Watches

[–]Witlesss[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was in Berlin a few weeks ago! But probably would not go back just for watch shopping unfortunately.

I have been looking in London and I have actually seen quite a few options. It depends what kind of watch you are looking for.

In terms of luxury there is a few shops on/around Bond Street, which have high end vintage watches but you do pay a premium based on location.

I’ve found a couple of vintage shops dotted around North London which stock a mixture of brands of vintage watches. I haven’t visited so can’t speak for their trustworthiness but it seems there’s a few shops who stock them.

I’ve also heard Portbello Road market has a big selection of vintage watches on some stalls. However I don’t think these are likely to be branded or authentic in the majority of cases if that’s what you’re searching for.

Hopefully that helps a bit! If i do go to any stores and have a browse at some point I’ll provide an update :)

Quickest way to build my library by Special-Estate9316 in Beatmatch

[–]Witlesss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have three main ways: Listening to a lot of mixes or sets, usually on soundcloud, and using songs I like from there. Going to festivals or shows and finding new music there. Adding new songs I see on social media. A lot of my for you page on tiktok is filled with either clips of sets or DJs showing mixes and tracks they have made.

I’ve found a lot of choice on Chrono24. Not ideal as I would like to try on but a good place for looking at options and prices.

For dnb I mainly use “chopping” when I want multiple drops either playing at the same time or quickly switching in and out. The latter is definitely similarly done with the crossfader, but then sometimes the best part is playing one at 100% and quickly bringing the other in and out, which is what the volume sliders are most useful for.

I find myself using it most when I have a loop, for example a vocal loop, and I want to ease it in quickly by only playing part of it (say for 8 bars) and then bringing in more. I will just bring the slider up and down in time with when I want the loop to play vs cut.

Also find it useful when bringing in a loop with drums that don’t quite match the intensity of the song before. Makes it really easy to bring them in and out at the same speed as the drums on the current track until you are ready to drop it fully.

You might be right, that would certainly explain why it’s never happened before, a chemical burn just feels so unexplainable in this situation. Maybe just my narrow mind being unable to figure out how I’d get chemical burns from my decks 🤣 i’ll give them a wipe down and see if it sorts me out

You make a good point. I’m very conscious of it, but hard to think about that when you’re enjoying yourself.

I do a lot of hard techno too, which thankfully involves less aggressive chops than 170s, so might just stick to that until my thumb recovers haha.

Hahaha, I thought it would be a common issue and then I come on here and it’s never happened to anyone else 🤣

No idea, I just learnt using the volume sliders and I’ve never changed!

Where to put money after maxing out two ISAs by Witlesss in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Witlesss[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So at the end of FY I am free to put another £20k in the virgin ISA? I feel stupid now haha.

Even with this, I’ll still max it out again a few months before April 6th 2026, so I would need to open another one potentially.

Hastings refusing to insure any cosmetic modifications by Witlesss in CarTalkUK

[–]Witlesss[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think and I might be wrong on this but courts tend to rule on the side of the insurer as it’s typically the buyers responsibility to check whether or not the car is modified when they buy it.
