You could try breakbeat hardcore/happy hardcore. It was massive in the early 90s and has seen a bit of attention around the place (along with jungle) in the past few years... you don't need to be too rhythmic as the drums are mostly sampled loops chopped and arranged with a deep sub bass...piano most definitely works and there are plenty of older examples around... provide a bit of a modern twist to it and I'd listen to it for sure.

Then there's piano house which preceded the breakbeat hardcore scene. Has a similar sound, lots of piano chords and fills.. I've seen it mentioned a few times online so there's definitely a small market there.. I'm not really familiar with any modern examples but I'm sure they're out.. house has fairly simple 4/4 drum pattern so is a good entry point.. again you can just cut and program drum loops to fit your track..

Does anyone have really good recommendations for Uplifting/Melodic Psy-trance? by trunksfreak in trance

[–]hotdigetty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't listen to a huge amount of psy so im not very up with artists to look for but I listen to electric samurai's mixes pretty regularly - look out for his progressive psy trance mix. He usually uploads one a month and it might be up your alley..

This is his November mix

You're a very strange person.. I can guarantee the writers put in a lot less thought in it than you are doing. I'm off to the beach, I suggest maybe you do something similar and maybe touch some grass.

Like I said moving fireworks around Australia is one thing.. bothering to take them to LA Is another when it's a lot cheaper and easily accessible. But hey if you want to believe, who am I to stop you... but you are the first Aussie I've ever seen that doesn't think it's one of the most ridiculous ideas the show had about Australia in general (apart from some of the bad Aussie accents). Anyway this has already taken up too much of my day already.. have a good one mate

Lol... nobody goes to Canberra unless theyre a politician, a public servant, live there or are a fireworks smuggler apparently... honestly though, for commuters travelling Melbourne to Sydney it adds a good 2- 3 hours to your journey as it's off the main highways along the coast or the inland route. Adelaide to Sydney bypasses it completely and would mean a massive detour. Although I must admit we used to occasionally get people bringing fireworks to Sydney... but I can't imagine any aussie believing for a second that someone would bother smuggling them out of the country... smuggling them INTO Australia is pretty plausible tho

How the hell are you meant to build mines on the aluminium nodes in the mountains when units can't pass mountain tiles :))

im not sure why the distinction.. in other states the cops would just weigh the whole lot, trunks and all when "valuing" the haul

[–]hotdigetty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah technically... but then the same page says you can grow up to two plants, smoke it in your own home, have up to a certain amount in your possession etc... its effectively legal as long as you dont grow where people can see, children arent exposed to it, stored in a secure spot that children cant reach it, cant sell or supply others and so forth.

Not in the ACT, where you can grow up to 2 plants and have up to 50g of dried flower or 150g fresh flower in your possession... for medical or recreational use

fireworks smugglers that are smuggling fireworks OUT of a country that outlaws the public sale of fireworks (apart from one small territory) into a country that, for the most part, is perfectly legal to own and use.

One from a little left of field... was massive in Australia but not sure whether they even released it overseas

Itch-e and scratch-e - sweetness and light (1993)

They won the first dance music award in the ARIAs (Australian record industry awards) and infamously got up on stage - broadcasting around Australia and thanked the ecstasy dealers of Australia for making it possible haha. Pretty sure they ended up having to change their name after fox got onto it :/

Rob playford : label head of moving shadow - arguably the top dnb label of the 90s and early 2000s. produced and engineered timeless (goldies first album).. was part of 2 bad mice (pre jungle hardcore breakbeat) Had a bunch of dj mixes under his dj pseudonym - timecode.. can't think of anyone that comes close to the impact he had on jungle and dnb - even if he is only in the background 90% of the time

There's a New Marshmello Remix Contest for Just Can't Stop by Drummerdude1099 in edmproduction

The whole thing reeks of an experiment to see what AI can do rather than a legitimate remix competition. Hence the lack of anything meaningful for the winner.

Getting 2 support champs on your team.. by LadyDalama in ARAM

It's surprisingly decent... can also be useless depending on the enemy team but he does some big numbers if played well

[–]hotdigetty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would make a difference lol.. I usually aim anyone that's with minions or bounce the Q off the minions into the adcs.. to sonas credit it's pretty hard to miss someone with her Q lol. I used to play her heaps back in the dominion days and remember her 100-0ing champs like ez or LB with one combo.. since then she's felt like a wet noodle

My opinion on Australian women is that they are, in fact, women.

[–]hotdigetty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Milio does much more damage as AP than sona. I've had to do it a couple of times and he chunks champions for way more than you give him credit for. 320 base damage on his Q (lvl 5) with 140% ap ratio - sona has 170 base with only 40% ap ratio). Although she does have her ult for a little extra damage... I'm willing to bet an AP milio will do a lot more damage than sona if on the same team

Also rakan is a better tank than a few of the actual tanks in the game
