Mini pub crawl solo tonight, run first thing then working tomorrow as it's year end apart from my dad taking me out to birthday lunch which is nice. Club night through early Sunday, catch up with friends over Jitsi Sunday morning then sleep through to the evening hopefully

I've heard good things about Mickey 17, enjoy!

Ahhh, see mine is but even being aware of who counts as celebrities these days

Good job, I have no training so am currently running a long ethernet cable across my landing from my living room (where the fibre cable runs in) over to my office. When I "eventually" decorate I'll pin it properly along the skirting at least

Well, I'm grateful for your complaints for off topic reasons. To bring it back to the thread, I recently built a living room gaming PC with the 9070XT and have been really pleased with EndeavourOS having easy access to the latest packages (like Meta 25) to be able to run brand new hardware.

I just ordered a Framework 13 and my natural choice of distro was Endeavour again. You made me realise I have absolutely no idea how I would approach power management, so maybe I'll start off with an officially supported options whilst researching things like kernel tweaks, tools, etc that could help. Ironically, the officially supported distros include Fedora lol!

Something like Hank Mobley's Soul Station would work, I think

Yup, did army in one year but spent 90% of it in the Signals hut playing Halo local multiplayer. No regrets

Oh good, the microwave clock is back in business!

Very nice, caught TWIABP at a fest last year and still enjoyed 'em despite not listened for over half a decade or so. Aren't Marietta back too?

Pretty much the same, weekend clubbing in Berlin when speed was so cheap you had to buy it in 10g batches

Oh wow, over 1m monthly listeners on Spotify and I've never heard of the artist. Though I don't use Tik Tok so maybe I shouldn't be too surprised hah. A good reminder of how huge the world of music is, let alone the arts

The artist that comes closest is Borusiade, I often imagine myself somewhere in the music, regardless of the genre, era or cultural background. Their music feels the most "me" in the dark, shadowy vibe most of their music gets across.... Breathe being a prime example.

Thanks for the reminder, I've not listened to Poppy for a while. Mechanism still sounds as beautiful as the first time I heard it!

 

A track that encapsulates techno for me, slowly building layer upon layer with a mind shattering resolution. One of my favourite live acts

 

One of my favourite artists of all time, rest in peace

 

With thanks to @itsAsin, think I prefer the original but it's certainly very interesting with the keys on top, almost a noir vibe at times

 

I feel a bit sheepish having to ask this, but has anyone successfully gotten their deck to display on a LG TV (C2 to be precise)? I have the official dock and that works for other devices like my laptop or surface pro but no dice with the deck itself.

I've tried various things like resetting the device, resetting the dock, changing the order of connection them all up but not managed to get anything to show it. I also checked that the HDMI cable I'm using works for up to 8k. A bit frustrating as one of the reasons I got the device was to be the living room PC/link to my gaming PC!

Any tips the best way(s) to watch the upcoming season? I'm also contemplating paying for DAZN (based in the UK)... with a temporary card that I can cancel given all the negative Trustpilot reviews

Just a small attempt to get more, or indeed any activity going here. I'm also genuinely curious, what have folks been listening to lately? If there's enough interest I could make this a monthly post.

For myself, a few below:

Irini - s/t: has probably become my fave Traumprinz/DJ Metatron album which says something, not just techno/trance/ambient but other styles like breaks/dnb scattered about

Air Liquide - Abuse Your Illusions: kicking myself that it took so long to get into them, still discovering a lot!

Sandwell District - Feed Forward: stone cold classic that fits most moods personally, RIP Juan
