Week 802: Operation Music Database

Weekly Written Review

What I appreciate most about my new DJ journey is that it has finally inspired me to organize my music and sound effects. Using specific commands, I located all my audio files, made copies, and began the prep. It's a lot, which has been consuming most of my time. Before now, after a project, I wouldn't have easy access to these files, and if I needed something as simple as a heartbeat, I would do a new search. Not anymore. Now I have an audio database.

Week 801: What Kind of DJ Am I?

Weekly Written Review

I'm not a real DJ, but I've been enjoying the preparation process. My algorithm is mostly DJing videos lately. Learning the art and some of the techniques has been enjoyable. At some point, I'll experiment with what I learned at The Y. That's good enough for me.

Week 800: Futsal Tested

Weekly Written Review

After discovering futsal late last year, I finally had a chance to try it on Friday. It was cool. I won't be adding it as a consistent sport in my schedule, but I'm open to trying it every few months. The biggest challenge is fitting it into my schedule. I'm not interested in doing it again if I have to play 3 sports in one day. 

Shoutouts to Friday, aka Shirley, the dog I rescued after tennis. The next day, we gave her to a no-kill shelter. She's a sweetie, and she's no longer listed on their website. Hopefully, she found a good home. I think I did a good thing.

Week 798: DJ Motown Initiated

Weekly Written Review

Back in college, when I was producing my second album, I was all in on the equipment. At times, my equipment came in handy for student talent shows, and I experimented with DJ-ing. I'm on a similar path now. While my first album remaster is in post-production, I'm aligning some tools to revigorate my rusted DJ career. lol
