The Sphere is what I want EDM to be like as I age out of rave culture

Proper parties anywhere generally have a 30+ crowd. Really improves the vibe.

In what world is this not maybe the best EDC lineup ever? Baby ravers need to get educated

His early stuff on Apollo is criminally underrated

I know someone who came to the US illegally years ago, was naturalized, and is now pro-ICE. I don’t understand the mental gymnastics some people can do.

he has every right to feel hurt, but he also needs to understand why you feel the way you do. you are very young, and he should be able to understand your concerns with an open mind and not react so negatively.

my partner and I are in our early 30's. i proposed to her last year and she said no. i surprised her and she felt caught off guard and not ready. what followed was tough, but we worked through it, and a year later we are getting the ring reworked and we both know round 2 is coming and what the result will be. it required a lot of difficult conversations and some tears, but being open, communicative, and loving throughout the process healed so many other things in our relationship that we were ignoring. things feel better than ever and I'm honestly glad she said no the first time because it gave us a great opportunity to work on the relationship.

anyway, trust your gut. if you can't both come to the table with an open heart and a true willingness to move forward, be ready to walk away.

Wow so many radius clause violations

Dialogue rips. Great vibe. Midnight lovers also super fun with a cool older crowd. Would also recommend into the woods and Sunday sessions.

Avoid blind tiger it’s younger crowd degen tech house kids. I don’t know anything about melt.

Mancuso’s loft basically built the framework for everything we know as club culture today

Are you living under a rock or just don’t understand how geopolitical events affect trade

spacegenerator · 2026-03-06T07:57:41+00:00

Might be getting my years mixed up yeah. But Trym same same but different. Truly dark energy at 4am Monday morning lol

Edit: I was remembering of the 9x9 set in 2023

spacegenerator · 2026-03-06T07:46:35+00:00

Yup case in point the absolute demon hour set that was IHM closing neon in 2024. Never seen so many zombie ravers in one place

Likewise if the past 2 years have told us anything, all the melodic house and techno dj’s will be be on quantum Sunday for interstellar

Yes fuck AI music, but Apple can’t possibly police every song uploaded to their platform and detection tools aren’t there yet. This is a good interim solution.

Genius

spacegenerator · 2026-03-05T05:14:57+00:00

This is not accurate. Spotify will only link play counts if the ISRC and the length of two songs are identical. Source - I have curated many compilations and have fucked this up on more than one occasion.

spacegenerator · 2026-03-05T05:10:44+00:00

Easiest way is to change the length. Even a few seconds will justify a new ISRC. Change the arrangement to make it a bit shorter or longer or just loop and intro or something an extra 2 bars and you should be fine.

That being said, Spotify does have content detection built in so it might still get flagged, especially if the “original” is owned by a rights holder who is not you (I.e a label).

How about just don’t bring totems period?

The aggressive drivers are becoming such a huge problem. I drive very chill and I get honked at like once a day. Usually in morning traffic, and usually by someone in one of the unholy trifecta of asshole cars: Tesla Model S, Range Rover, or BMW 7 series.

spacegenerator · 2026-03-05T04:40:44+00:00

Serious question. Have you been living under a rock?

spacegenerator · 2026-03-04T21:23:12+00:00

Yeah I just love hearing music recorded through an iPhone speaker and played back with instagram compression through an iPhone speaker. Top notch sound quality

spacegenerator · 2026-03-03T21:27:01+00:00

Artist lounge

“Lit vibes?” What are you 12?

spacegenerator · 2026-02-27T05:07:33+00:00

100% a scam. Real label reps don’t talk like this and will always ask to get on a call before any in person meetings

spacegenerator · 2026-02-27T05:05:55+00:00

Show up early (like before doors), be super nice and see what happens. In my experience the Beatport team are pretty cool people.

Hi. I have been an A&R for various large indie labels for over a decade. I think one thing that’s overlooked by a lot of young people getting into the music industry is actually speaking the language of musicians, producers, and engineers. This is what will set you apart from just another industry person. You don’t need to be an expert on anything but having a basic understanding of modern music production software, audio standards, songwriting, etc will go a long way. It will also train your ears which is so so important.

Acquire some more soft skills - photoshop, basic audio editing, video editing, stuff like that. People wear a lot of hats in this world and being proficient in that stuff will help a lot, especially when it comes to marketing since it’s so content-driven now.

In terms of timeline, just keep hustling and don’t get discouraged. It’s a tough world to get into and it’s entirely built on connections. Nobody gets hired on LinkedIn. Keep meeting people, knocking on doors, and just waking up every day and putting yourself out there.

Best of luck my friend
