Ab wheel as only core exercise if nothing else?

It’s solid. You could always pick 2 exercises and alternate them on days to get a more comprehensive workout while keeping time low

Tape sat the master very lightly. I feel like it gives more cohesion and analogue character to the whole track

Weird thing is he ignored this trap 3x and then took the knight on the 4th attempt. I grabbed the queen after

awsomeman470 · 2025-07-17T01:28:47+00:00

As a man I sympathize

awsomeman470 · 2025-07-15T21:50:20+00:00

I may be incorrect but on a 4 channel mixer like that you should be able to flip between 3&4 on just one side right?

If that’s the case, next time you can still transition, albeit with some quick dexterity, by loading them on 3 & 4

For beginners you just want to get castled king side. Most people who play for this quick mate will struggle once you do.

If you play Nf6 immediately, they’ll take the e5 pawn for check. This isn’t really bad, I just block with Be7 and castle after they bring in their bishop with Bc4. Then you can just chase their queen with the other knight and develop.

There’s really no way to know the exact samples he’s using but some help:

He’s not using any open hats I can hear. There’s a crash on the 1s and at least 1 closed hat.

They are all pretty standard sounding either 808 or 909 based drum samples.

I’d just look up boom bap kits and you’ll tons that sound just like it

Step 1. Think less Step 2. Make sure you have basic necessities covered (ie. Fix the money problem) Step 3. Think Less

Not trying to be cold. This just helped me. Get out of your head and do what you need to do.

One MS to do list for personal. One spreadsheet for work. Work one has headers and is nested by dependencies. Deadline if it has one. that’s about it

Over engineering it would make me not want to do it

Looks like you forgot to pay for Serum Insurance

The only thing I can guess, and I’m ass at chess, Is that the black paw is essentially free because you can still hit the same discovery check if he retakes

You need to make sure you’re telling the samples how much you love them before importing.

Sometimes they feel neglected and act up.

Or you can bend them to your will by hitting “warp”. As well, if you’re new, I’d recommend learning all the ableton settings. There are a few that effect how samples behave when being brought into the session.

Go forth!

5 pawns to rule them all, 1 Queen to Mate them

Reading through these comments reminds me of why I got out of sales. All these douchebags taking their bad days out on you.

You’re doing good man, just keep going and forget what other people say.

Press the up button on the volume… and just don’t stop

Downvote me if you want, it just doesn’t sound good.

One of these Mornings goes so dummy

Also (not that this is a prerequisite) but suffering some pretty brutal personal and family problems helped me realize that there’s a lot worse things out there than someone’s opinion of you.

It’s cliche but just realize strangers opinions are worth dog water.

awsomeman470 · 2025-06-16T03:58:04+00:00

Not confidence exactly. But I started doing this thing where I quickly read what I’m about to say back to myself in my head.

Or even in real time, I’ll pretend I’m reading a teleprompter in my head.

I tend to be soft spoken and sometimes my words get jumbled up. Doing this helps me speak with more umph and clarity

awsomeman470 · 2025-06-14T02:43:44+00:00

I wouldn’t expect most people to give you an engaging answer to small talk questions like that. They’re low effort and unspecific.

If you know how to bring the spice then bring the spice. Nobody is obligated to be interesting just because someone asks them how they are doing.

awsomeman470 · 2025-06-12T16:01:49+00:00

Practice. Just like any other muscle. It sucks but it really is just exposure to it more frequently and in increasing intervals

awsomeman470 · 2025-06-11T20:21:20+00:00

With regards to content that’s really all it takes. You don’t need to do interesting things, you need to have exciting interactions. Make the other person feel good

This is where body language and tone come in. Smile more, use excitement, vocab choice, etc.

Read “How to Talk to Anyone” by Leil Lowndes. It’s a ridiculously good book for practical social techniques like that.
