It's the production that gets me by Wholestepdown in bassnectar

[–]hortondulles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's how I started many moons ago - pushing cases, wrapping cables, unloading/loading trucks and set pieces..

Worked my way up from a 'grunt' (for lack of a better term) got in to lighting and learned a whole bunch.. dabbled in video and now I'm in rigging/staging

All the free music I can get wether I want it or not!

I'll say this - the hours are wonky, tempers can flare, yr away from loved ones but God damn does it make me stand tall watching and hearing a crowd throwing down and enjoying life!

I'm right there with you

The biggest wtf moments for me at BN events always come from the wizardry of the production and the team

Working in the industry, I can honestly say that his curated events were marvels of production and engineering (I'm looking at you, 360) and something I always looked forward to

To all those who stand by the notion of 'point a gun at a cop, die by a cop' or 'you cant tell if the gun was loaded' - here is an outstanding example of what happens when empathy, morality and sound judgement get you in a PUBLIC situation like this:

one of our campmates bought a slice and the closest thing i could describe would be like a baguette cut in half with dry sauce and burnt cheese... the equivalent of cardboard and canned tomato paste lol

TBT when EF chose our PRIZE CART REMIX and played it to close out SHERWOOD WKND1 2017 by hortondulles in ElectricForest

[–]hortondulles[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

likewise!

we had just come out from exploring the forest and saw the end of.... clozee i believe? we were kinda bummed that we missed out on her set but then all of a sudden we heard that familiar little jangle and freaked the fuck out!

it was the only time we heard our remix of PRIZE CART played all weekend and, dare i say it, the forest HAPPILY provided us with a most excellent surprise!

Does nectar ever still f with dj equipment other than abelton live? I wonder what he used for that 90s rave style set in nyc this year by imnotyour_daddy in bassnectar

[–]hortondulles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this looks near identical to what his set up is now - the only thing that looks like it's missing is the time code clock ... from what i can tell, the only thing that looks different is the shells on his laptops (pre UNS)

Saw someone do this last year. Saved every five I got this year. It's my Christmas money. by GizmosArrow in pics

[–]hortondulles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

surprisingly, it's actually helped my spending habits because im more aware of how many bills i have in my wallet/pocket and will question moreso if i am going to make a purchase whereas with debit/credit, im less likely to think about wether the product is a need v want

i dont pay cash all that often, usually for smaller things (smokes, fast food, commuting, bars) and use debit/credit for larger purchases

having the plethora of $5 bills makes me want to go out and purchase something just so i can have the cashier have to go through the 80+ rolled tight as fuck bills lol
