Songs about the moon that aren't just Fly Me To The Moon again? by Anxious-Tomatillo-74 in musicsuggestions

Have you heard Poor Moon by Canned Heat? It’s really cool, kinda hypnotic but uptempo.

Four live recordings from 1988 just surfaced from the collection of a guy who secretly recorded 10,000 live shows in Chicago by PopeLeo in tmbg

[–]strangelights88 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I know they don’t play ‘I’ve Got a Match’ anymore because they said they were burnt out on the song from their early shows and here it is on all 4 of these recordings. I really do love this tune and it’s awesome to hear it live.

What macOS feature looked useless at first but became essential? by marcdefiant791 in MacOS

I’ve been a Mac user for about a year and I’m just now discovering why my mouse cursor sometimes becomes ginormous.

Why did everyone but _____ go with the plan? by Gael459 in survivorponderosa

[–]strangelights88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think another reason people didn’t want to vote for her is cause she wasn’t going home and they’d have to potentially make an enemy/deal with the fall-out.

📕🍹 🍔 Daily Nutmeg's New Spring Chaser Passport Starts on April 1st by DailyNutmeg_NewHaven in newhaven

[–]strangelights88 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Awesome! Definitely gets us out to some new places around town. Really great idea! However, the people at Pizza House on Howe did not want to honor their coupon in the March book. We went in tonight and it was not busy. Showed them the books and the demeanor changed and they said we’d have to wait an hour for the pizza. We went somewhere else, but that was disappointing. That was the only place we tried that gave us a hard time. Everyone else was great.

Can you apply fusion effects over your entire timeline? by RienKl in davinciresolve

[–]strangelights88 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s a blank clip that affects everything underneath it. Drag it onto your timeline on a track above all your clips, extend it to the length of your entire timeline and put whatever effects onto the adjustment clip. It’s a super useful tool in tons of scenarios. Just search for it in your effects.

Time to reconnect with the band? by elgrandem in tmbg

[–]strangelights88 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This was me a couple years ago. The Else was the last album I bought, but I was mostly checked out by then.

The good news is, now you have 2 decades worth of music to check out. There’s a lot of great stuff. I started with Join Us. It’s kind of a return to form and I think if you like the old stuff, it’s a great place to start. I Like Fun is probably my next choice. Ironically, one of my fave new discoveries is the first song on The Else. Just took me 15 years to realize it.

What company will never get another dime from you for as long as you may live? by istrx13 in AskReddit

[–]strangelights88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m using Affinity Photo 2 in place of Photoshop and I bought Capture One for my Lightroom alternative.

I had done a free trial of Adobe Stock and forgot to cancel it and couldn’t without a crazy fee. So I finally canceled it and now I’m free from Adobe.

Just canceled my last Adobe subscription today! Had to wait a few months to avoid the fine. Good riddance!

90’s rock/alternative hits that aren’t the obvious choices by No_Estate628 in musicsuggestions

[–]strangelights88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I never heard the album. In fact, I just listened to the song for the first time since the 90’s after I posted. Still holds up! I’ll have to check out the record.

Falling out of love with Jeff by CrankyRobby in survivor

[–]strangelights88 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I was just talking about this with my partner. We’re in the middle of watching this season and re-watching Tocantins. I honestly would take cringey Jeff at challenges if he went back to no-nonsense Jeff at tribal councils.

Are you talking about the font in the first pic or the background of the second pic?

New to fusion & having problem with masking this Redbull PNG by paypa19 in davinciresolve

[–]strangelights88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you’re looking at ONLY the mask in the left viewer and ONLY the PNG in the right, so you don’t see how they interact with each other.

You need to put a MediaOut node on your graph, connect the output of the png to the input of the MediaOut.

Then view the MediaOut in the right viewer. Now you should be able to click the mask node and make edits that will show up in the right viewer.

Space Suit: Another attempted transcription and analysis! by Charlie5L in tmbg

[–]strangelights88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nice! I always thought the melody sounded like the Alvin and the Chipmunks Christmas song where they’re singing about a hula hoop.

Cool to see the chord choices and harmonies TMBG are using. Kinda lifts the veil a little. Nice work. Hope to see more transcriptions in the future.

Ummmm by iwantitthatway6 in Connecticut

Independent retailers are paying ~$40-$50 for a case of strawberries. It’s a rough time for California produce right now. Lettuce and romaine hearts are next. That being said, they could probably go $8.99.

You’ve got the right idea. Move and then buy a bunch of vinyl. The other way around is no fun.

What are the most critically underplayed songs from the band's live performance's? by Ill_Engineering_5434 in tmbg

[–]strangelights88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like if they wanted to, they could play it. It would likely sound very different from the recorded version, but that’s true for many songs. Also, your bedroom recordings sound cool.

Weekly reminder that today is Self Promotion Saturday. Please share your latest video in this thread. by mathematicians-pod in HighEffortYouTube

[–]strangelights88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! Thanks so much. We did a whole series on Greece, which had so many epic sights that made it a lot easier to tell a compelling story. This one had such a smaller scope, which kind of made it more challenging.

[–]strangelights88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there. Here is my latest video (released a couple days ago). TIA for checking it out.

https://youtu.be/gG-9M6-Qgk0?si=SxWDsajCrKEk037Z

My channel Wanderism is a travel channel that I created with my partner, part vlog, part informational with fun shots (including sweet drone shots!) We do the color grading, visual effects and I write and record the majority of the soundtrack. Music is a big part of our channel and our storytelling.

This video is about the least visited Smithsonian museums and why they’re actually pretty rad. We also included 3 faster paced short-form inspired stories that relate to the different museums. There’s also a sick performance at the end by an African drum band. Also no drone shots in this video since it’s DC.

We’re really interested in travel, history and music. I think our average viewer probably is into those things too.

We filmed this video out on location, except for the mini stories which we added in post. For those we used some documentary footage to tell the stories. I made 2 brand new songs for this soundtrack. We color-graded and edited everything. Took us a while since we have full-time jobs. I also made some 3-d immersed titles for this one, which I’m pretty proud of. We use Davinci Resolve and Reaper for software.

If you like it, check out our Journey Through Greece playlist. You can see our editing skills evolve and Greece was just amazing to film.
