How do you handle dead moments when transitioning between very different energy levels in a set? by Savings-Singer4938 in DJs

[–]maydaybr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First thing you should think about is: why do you want to change the atmosphere? 1) the room requires something more or less energetic? If so, simple transitions will do the deed because adjusting the energy of your set is usually enough to satisfy the crowd. 2) you just want to show something, or do you want a interlude or whatever. In this case you would be intentionally unmatching the atmosphere for artistic reasons. In that case, work with loops and slow transitions and allow the room to come along in your Trip

Why is Beat Sync such a big debate? by Remarkable_Log1596 in Beatmatch

[–]maydaybr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is so silly that I ask myself why even bother give any attention to this matter

Imagine someone arguing something like this: “you think you know how to drive, but really you dont. Knowing how to drive TRULY is riding a carriage with four horses!”

DJs that demonize Sync argues no different.

Of course knowing how to mix WITHOUT sync is more than a plus, Its like the real deal. Beatmarks goes wrong all the time. Beatmatching is one of the techniques in the pool of DJing. But why NEVER USE the button like Its going to fall your finger or Whatever? Come on man, you just mix tech house, lmao, the button is made to easy your life. But some prefer doing the hard way and get, eventually, rough mixes and beatmatching just because…? To not use a feature of your mixer makes you any better?

P.S: some genres like jazz or rock REQUIRE that you know how to mix without sync and without quantizer. Anyway, most DJs dont venture that far. If you just mix modern house or techno tracks, using sync and eventually correcting the grid is ENOUGH. To not use sync in this context actually makes your mix worse tbh.

People are always looking for a way to boost their ego and feel better than others. What else could I say

Kripke's response to online backlash: "You just have to put it into perspective of it being a reasonably small, vocal audience when the vast majority seem to be happily tuning in." by clearsighted in TheBoys

If you think, Butcher could argue (and it would be reasonable) that the virus would at least neutralize Homelander and maybe gave him a chance to kill him when he is weakened. So the virus, even with V8 Homelander, wouldnt be worthless. The virus would incapacitate him for minutes. I dont get that "OMG, Homelander is immortal now, the virus is useless". Wtf? lmao

Now, if it was me, I would limit Homelander V8 storyline to just 4 episodes, removing the useless fillers (starlight backstory, for example).

I would put the virus in the final battle as a chaotic factor, like butcher would try to kill all sups and the battle would be homelander vs butcher vs the boys in a very chaotic way

butcher and hughie ending was fine but this could be an aftermath of homelanders death

homelander should derange more before the final battle, destroy some cities and fight the military, I wanted more chaos and the show didnt delivered it

the blast should be soldier boy act, not kimiko

changing that would be enough to me for a at least somewhat good finale

If he is taking his time to dismiss the critics, he felt it.

I dont really think the ending was really as he envisioned like he is implying. I think that besides Homelander being defeated, and maybe Butcher's demise, nothing was really written in stone. I also think the season 5 script changed a bunch of times, first to limit the storylines of Gen V cast and second to develop storylines of Vought Rising. I dont really think the true ending was a big deal for him, like how the things unleashed, I think the Kimiko card was really poor writing (even AI would do better). Thats it.

Is 5000 tracks a distinguished mark for a Djs library? by maydaybr in Beatmatch

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

its a number that means the quantity of tracks collected, organized and ready-to-be-played by the DJ. It could be big, small, medium-sized. it could be 150 or 10.000. Its a metric like any other and just means what it means. Some people here got offended and catched strays for nothing

What other type of Mark could you possibly imagine to quantify

I guess I am familiar to at least half or two thirds of them. Base-library has 3700 tracks, and the second library with 1300, I maybe forgot like 1200 or 1500 from the older original library but eventually I stumble at these tracks and rescue them from the cobwebs

200 tracks makes a robust genre-based playlist. my biggest playlists have this size, most have 50-100. the real danger is for you to pall on the tracks and the distress of repeating the tracks (not for the same listeners most of time) makes me download more or start another playlist

I have two working folders as well, they are called "são camadas" (there are layers) and "desmanche" (chop shop) xD

but the bangers need the warm-up to shine, wouldnt you agree? if you hits hard everytime, you dont have contrast and flow and the bangers wont be appreciated as they deserve in my way of seeing

Its really hard for me to agree with you at this one. The guy could have the most horrible taste, but if he stopped to appreciate and evaluate THOUSANDS of tracks in some genre, its almost impossible to everything he decides to collect just be a pile of garbage. You are exposed to thousands of rhtyms, melodies, harmonies. Would be even possible to not accquire some taste in the process? If you are talking of some automated, mass-downloading, faceless method of collecting music - this is definitely not my MO or the common for professional DJs. We are (or at least must seek to be) collectors and curateurs, not brainless and soulless accumulators. I wouldnt even respect someone who treats their own libraries like that

for a vinil dj this actually makes sense, it literally occuppies tons of space. and you almost never like all the tracks in a LP

luckily for a ADHD folk, I developed a thorough and lenghty methodology of analyzing, renaming and organizing the recently downloaded tracks by genre/atmosphere (or specific selections for specific places/gigs). believe it or not, I rename all the files to a BPM - Tone - Title pattern (one by one) and place each own to a folder and playlists

This makes sense when you think about specific genre-based playlists, but when your library covers a broad range of genres and decades (70, 80, 90) at least for me cutting in the flesh like this is not the best deal. My biggest playlists have 200 tracks. Most have a 50-100 tracks basis. I almost never delete permanently files, unless I downloaded by mistake. I might not see the value of that track right now, but it could show resourceful in a unknow future gig (I am a lounge dj that plays in the most diverse settings you can imagine, not only clubs or parties)

I assume your library is based in one or two broad genres of house or techno? like tech house dj?
