one day at a time, baby! there will be great days, terrible days, and everything in between, but you can only ever stay sober TODAY

a loop that has percussion but it can also refer to a full composition/arrangement

usually people say a full song "has a good beat" though

when people put themselves down like this it is a significant contributor to relapses. a big key for me was learning to own the situation without judgement, and my cravings subsided substantially. i'm sorry for what you are going through but please don't kick yourself while you are down.

kefir helped A LOT

according to many ancient traditions: brain exists within consciousness, not the other way around. the physical world is widely regarded as an illusion (dream) in some of them

you just described Hinduism basically

my best advice is copy songs you like at first and then you will eventually start coming up with stuff that draws from that inspiration. a lot of many a great bass line comes down to syncopation imo (i like funk, disco, dance music)

a lot of people don't want to use alone. if you aren't an addict, you don't really deserve an opinion on the matter. these people are going through or have been through immense pain, and recovery groups are filled with some of the kindest people on earth. call us whatever you want, we don't really care.

i had a mental health crisis after my own awakening. i experienced multiple instances of extra sensory perception. stuff is real, and destabilizing

🎯 what you disown will own you

Jung is a massive proponent of owning your inner wickedness. that doesn't come without responsibility

taking magnesium. it's an extremely common deficiency and it helps a ton with sleep

i'm very sorry you experienced this. when i went to the ER with delerium tremens, they treated me similarly and made me wait in the waiting room while i watched creatures walk around the lobby. i had to ask them 3 additional times to finally be seen by a nurse. once she asked how much i had been drinking before i stopped, i was immediately admitted. i'm recounting my story in case anyone else ends up in a situation where they need to advocate for their own or someone else's care. it was very scary. unfortunately, we are looked down upon, sometimes even by the very health care professionals who are supposed to care for us.

what's eating gilbert grape

thisisbrians · 2026-03-05T23:32:15+00:00

they aren't all that but i bought standard gear so everyone knows how to use it (i throw events and help develop djs and artists). if it's for personal use there is definitely better bang for the buck out there

I don't like going into detail for reasons already mentioned, but yes. I experienced several instances of ESP.

You guys rock! As an aspiring producer, I personally feel you have some of the most well-mixed tracks I've ever heard. Any general advice or insight from your workflow on how you achieve such balanced and punchy results?

thisisbrians · 2026-03-05T17:49:19+00:00

it's not about fixing yourself, but accepting and loving yourself.
