Thought about applying to these guys to try sound design. They make great fx plugins (i own 3) and are bringing out their first synth this month. They’re looking for anyone in any position within the company but mainly to be used for the business side of things of their setup . @Gagi . Don’t know if this appeals should your job be compromised . They make awesome stuff. BABY Audio - Jobs

On another note. I have reached a milestone. I have completed my first full week at work for 5 months since being ill. Happy but knackkered!
If you asked me a couple of years ago, I would've said making plugins would've been amazing. Not sure why I forgot about that. My current tech stack doesn't translate well to music but I could definitely give it a shot!

The 33 km trail was tough as hell - compounded by the fact I had to take a shit at 10th km already (still regret not taking one at a checkpoint near a restaurant). It took me 8 hours and 15-20 minutes to finish it. At 15th km I already regretted it, at 25th everything but my bowels went numb and I just powered through. The nature was beautiful though, everything is blossoming and growing, and the weather was almost perfect.

I bought some CD's. As my musical taste has refined during the years, I only buy music from the respected artists such as Sasha, Paul van Dyk and Ellie Goulding.

Wait, what?

Big shout for completing though! 33km even at a flat surface is not an easy task, let alone being in trail with big altitude changes. I must admit, I never have gotten into trail or ultra running personally, but I have huge respect for those who endeavour through these events.

I have a regular marathon ahead of me in two weeks or so. Last time in marathon I said fuck it after 35km since I had used all my energy, it was cold and I was nowhere near the pace I should have been. It did not feel worthwhile to force myself to finish. And after all, it gave me huge motivation spike to train through the winter. I should be in a better condition now.

My big trip starts tomorrow! I'm nervous but also excited. Already printed out the route as well
Have fun man!

I'm packing myself for the trip this Saturday. I don't know why but it always causes me stress.

To be frank, I was not competing, so it was more of a hike for me. Still challenged me though. Good luck man!

MURICANS right about now...

ROFL the only place that kinda felt like that was rural Louisiana a couple miles away from my 2nd night hotel. Otherwise, everyone has been pretty chill

With a Tesla you really don't interact much with people unless you want to buy something at like a gas station. I've interacted just as much with hotel staff to ask them if I could use the bathroom, since some superchargers are located at hotels (for whatever reason)

On my mind today is, i have tomorrow off work as its bank holiday, and am planning to get a long way with my Wetlands Thailand trance track. Im rubbish at finishing tracks so am feeling a bit of self generated pressure. Any advice to just chill with it and let it flow? I know myself enough to realise i may mess up and waste too much time perfecting bits (which wouldn't be productive)

I've noticed there's quite a few trance releases released which don't pop up in upcoming releases section. It is somewhat expected since many of us likes certain segment of trance and creating a topic for something which is not exactly your top of tea feels needless. And on top of that, the pool of active users could be bigger.

This is why I will try to do my part and I try to create some new topics every week regardless if I like the release or not.

First school shooting in a while in Serbia, I certainly don't remember any. A 14-y-o shot and killed a guard and 8 classmates, with a couple more wounded.

Apparently was planning it for a month, chose priority targets, drew maps and plans... Brought two guns and 4 Molotovs.

Absolutely shocked.

Saw it on the news. Horrible. Seems a typical lone wolf’er from the preliminary analysis

Back from the holiday. Saw some truly incredible things (some are the most beautiful areas I've ever seen), hiked around 70 km, and in general, completely relaxed and took my mind off work and the world in general.

Some things could've been better though. We had phone signal, so that meant we could not entirely shut down from the outside world. The village was a bit more crowded and less isolated, remote (even though it has less than 50 people in it). Last year, being in a village with almost no connection to the outside world had a profound impact on me. Besides that, no shock factor this year. I am just in general more used to hiking, going through rough areas and seeing beautiful things, since I've been on numerous trips in the past year.

Still so much things to visit in that area, it's insane. We saw so many beautiful things and even then there's always something more hidden within the mountains, or visible, yet still not reached. I thought we were gonna finish with this area and move on to the next ones, but we just have to come back again.

It's time for a break, so much stress lately. It was the worst week of my life. I said goodbye to a person very close to me, thank God this service uitvaartatelier.nl helped with the organization, I could not have done it myself. Now I need to find the strength to survive this dark period of life, I really don’t know how to do it ...

Does anyone have 5500 Euros to lend me? I'll pay you back until 2030 I swear.
