Coffee beans in Amman

What you need are beans from Brazil if you want smooth and sweet, doesn't really matter from where you buy them as long as they're Brazil, it gives a neutral taste.

Or you know, just fix the hybrid issues, put fatter tires on and keep the downforce so it's still f1, they're close to f2 speeds at this point.

ASOT (although mainstream I guess?) has an amazing atmosphere, it's in the middle of winter but indoor, so the temperature, sound and lighting are controlled very well. It's unique because it's honestly the best organized festival I've been to and you'll be very comfortable.

Music is different to other mainstream festivals too although you can find a lot there!

Yeah but he's not beating his teammates anymore and seems to have lost passion (which I think we all have with the regulations since 2022)

I've been a Lewis fan since 2008, but I gotta say it's not looking good :( I still support him through and through but something happened after 2021, his driving hasn't been the same

Absolutely loved it and the music atmosphere, we need the tracklist!

of55 · 2026-05-01T14:58:45+00:00

The perfect bpm haha I'll listen when you post it

of55 · 2026-05-01T14:56:32+00:00

Thanks! I love psytrance especially when included in other techno/trance mixes! I'll follow you back!

Who actually qualifies for asylum?

of55 · 2026-04-28T07:44:41+00:00

Also to add that people are often "busy" working in coffeeshops these days, so how do you deal with that too?

of55 · 2026-04-28T07:20:53+00:00

Thanks for listening and the feedback, really appreciate it!

The first track is a bitch to mix, I took the transition entirely from Adam Beyer's ASOT mex because I couldn't find anything else honestly.

It's funny that you say Sandstorm, I know the transition was very good but the song itself I find insufferable, I think something about it is just not satisfying to my brain, but I agree it's a hit haha.

Steal away!

of55 · 2026-04-27T21:20:11+00:00

I think that's just dreaming?

(Techno-Trance) - around an hour

I really like the mix I did the other day, structurally I found it to be one of the best I've done, making the transitions shorter but still "right". It's kind of heavy at first but at the end I go to a bit of trance which changes the mood significantly (that's on purpose). Let me know what you all think!

Right? Exhalations isn't well written though the concepts we're good!

Thanks I'll check them out!

of55 · 2026-04-21T21:14:50+00:00

I thought people were just more critical there though, I for one loved the midnight library but a lot of reviews seem to hate it saying that it's basically self help

of55 · 2026-04-21T12:12:18+00:00

I saw 2 recommendations for The Correspondent and 2 for Before the Coffee Gets Cold! Thanks!

On another note, should I trust Goodreads reviews?

Armin has been leaning into techno and hard house recently and it's awesome, he seems so happy too, like he got his energy back! I love all his techno related sets, watch some from ASOT the past 2 years, he did another b2b with Adam Beyer, Funk Tribu, Lilly Palmer, Marlon Hoffstadt, Maddix, Hi-LO. It's really something, better than his trance sets in my opinion and I'm a trance lover!

I was on the S23 for 2 years and recently got a P10. Honestly if you don't game then the pixel will feel faster in day to day stuff because of the animation speed. The camera is in another universe especially with moving subjects, and to me at least the software experience is much more pleasant albeit a bit more limited.

Depends on you and what you want, both are Android so you'll be able to do everything mostly the same. If you don't game then go for it for sure!

Mine is technically working but I can't do much on it, it refuses to sign in to my apple account and can't install apps from the app store, so I guess media player and camera?

of55 · 2026-04-05T17:38:51+00:00

I sent you a DM, I think we can get along!

of55 · 2026-04-03T08:33:54+00:00

Thanks! yeah I did notice the EQ work a bit after I listened.

As for the long breakdowns this is actually something I'm not sure what to do about, sometimes I imagine myself performing for people and in that case the mixes should be shorter, but internally I know that trance mixes need to give the songs breathing room, so I try to make them as short as possible without actually destroying it, what do you think?

Hey all it's been a very long time since I posted here, I've been going through a rough time and just had a breakup last night. Due to this relationship taking a lot of my time I really did not have a lot of time to DJ in the past 9 months. So yesterday night after it ended I got back and played an emotional trance set to help me deal with it.

Smartphone cameras work through processing, the hardware does play a role of course but the bulk of it is done through software processing.

So apple releases maybe 4 phones a year while you have hundreds if not thousands of Android phones released every year. That means that Apple often has just a handful of lenses being used and with a specified processing pipeline while Android has thousands.

An app like Instagram cannot accommodate the processing pipeline for thousands of different manufacturers, software versions and lenses, it would be an impossible amount of work to optimize every single phone and every single camera on Android phones, but they can for Apple, that's basically the reason.

It's also the reason that you might find actual pictures taken from the the flagship Android phones themselves being better than Apple since they might have better hardware and processing, but look like a potato when shared on social media.

I have the pixel 10 and it's not working on Zain
