Like most, the self-isolation has the creative juices flowing. No real world movez = no excuses.
Join me on Instagram live for an hour of record nerdery spinning beat digger jams. No fancy multi-colored space ship mixers, no time stretching software... just raers and beers.

Thanks! I'm still experimenting and stretching out to see what works for me. I like the underground vibe Instagram Live presents, but it can be limiting technology wise. I'm hoping to simulcast IG and Facebook Saturday night, Here's the Facebook stream if anyone missed it:

Are you able to see this?
The Friday FB stream went mute at points, I wonder if that was cause certain songs got picked up by some copyright AI? I heard tell of a teacher giving a lecture for an hour and having the whole thing muted because her husband was watching wrestlemania in the background. Keep dodging the pigs!
Testing Vimeo as a spot to post recordings of the live stream as Youtube is no bueno
Yes. It's still in beta. Right now there is quite a few cons, but I'm sure they are working it out. It would make sense to give it a shot.
D59B used to do it when their backlog was on video, but alas moved to soundcloud.
I had to sack Mixcloud off last week. Taking away the ability to rewind in the freemium version was the last straw and made me want to throw the mouse through the monitor. It's just being cheap.
Last night's ish:

First video I've been able to watch, and aside from mentally posting a few times during the intro, I LOL'd at the Leo Sayer replacement
I miss the funkydj1734923@aol.com / myspace though. looked serious enough to confuse somebody, my favorite kind of joke
Ha. Thanks! Yes I agree. I need to keep some of the strut humor before I go totally "Hollywood". Definitely will add some of that back in
There is a master database which they stopped supporting because the copyright shit changes so quickly and there are millions of songs. It's a good gauge but not at all accurate.
The trick is to post a mock video privately and let it sit for a few hours and see what songs you get popped for. My latest mix didn't have any strikes surprisingly.
The only scary thing is because shit changes constantly, my mix could be taken down any second. It happened to my Yacht Rock live test. It was up for a solid week and then blocked by the band Pages.
Maybe it only works for ballzing downtempo and niche dance genres nobody cares about....
:why cry:
