Certe persone (tipo mia madre) guardano un dj e pensano: "Sai che sforzo! Mette dei dischi, tutto qui. Che ci vuole? Chiunque potrebbe farlo".
Tumblr media
Se solo immaginassero quanto lavoro c'è dietro, per diventare un dj almeno decente! Mettiamo che tu mixi in un locale. È pieno zeppo e tutti stanno ballando come pazzi. Hai una cuffia appoggiata dietro un orecchio per sentire il pezzo del piatto 1 in uscita dalle casse. Sull'altro orecchio hai la seconda cuffia con la quale lavori per i fatti tuoi al disco sul piatto 2. Fai scratchare il secondo disco avanti e indietro sullo slipmat sotto la puntina, a caccia del punto esatto dove "tagliare", mentre ti accerti che vada a tempo con il primo. Potresti aver bisogno di farlo viaggiare più veloce, o più piano. Se ci metti troppo ad allineare il secondo, il primo potrebbe finire e tu ritrovarti di botto nel silenzio più totale. E se fai il dj, dammi retta, i silenzi di tomba non sono affatto consigliabili. E tutto questo lo devi fare in mezzo alla bolgia di gente che hai intorno, per non parlare di quelli che vengono a chiederti di mettere su i loro pezzi preferiti, e cioè come minimo roba di dieci anni fa.
Tumblr media
Se lavori a regola sui piatti, a questo punto sposterai il cross fader del volume per infilare la seconda traccia: è qui che tutto si fa davvero eccitante. Certe volte è questione di un secondo: il cambio dei due brani è quasi istantaneo. Un colpo secco, insomma. Da brivido. Altrimenti puoi creare una dissolvenza graduale, e i due pezzi suoneranno in contemporanea per un po'.
Poi quando decidi di abbandonare il primo, lo sfumi con l'up fader collegato al piatto 1 (si chiama "up" fader anche se in realtà lo usi sia per abbassare che per alzare il volume). Poi con l'up fader del piatto 2 aumenti il volume della seconda traccia.
Tumblr media
L'obiettivo è quello di effettuare un cambio senza punti morti: con i veri DJ è praticamente impossibile capire dove finisce una canzone e dove parte l'altra. Quando ascolti uno forte come Reel Love, hai l'impressione che tutti i pezzi siano un unico lungo brano ininterrotto.
Tumblr media
Cit. "Voglio fare la Dj!"

how do surrogacies for cats in another Clan work, socially? With honor siring you don't have to stick around once the cat you're siring for is pregnant; but with surrogacies you're going through an entire pregnancy and kitting process, which your Clan will probably catch onto at some point. Do you just... go off to give birth and come back and tell your Clan "bad news they didn't make it :( they all got uhhh eaten by a hawk sry all" after dropping them off with the cats you surrogated for
The out of universe reason is simple logistics. Some parents can't give birth but they still need a visit from the stork, with how small Clan sizes are.
In-universe, it's a whole process.
MOST surrogacies are done by family, or are in-Clan. A sibling who is able to get pregnant will do so, with the expectation that their family member will take and raise the kits.
More are done on a sort of "open book" policy. Onestar and Whitetail are an example of this; One wanted kits and asked White, but didn't want to coparent. She agreed, and neither one kept it a secret.
So Whitetail is not Heathertail's MOTHER, but it is known she was the honor-sire.
Likewise though, it's within your rights to keep it secret, even within a Clan. If you asked Onestar where the kit came from, invoking Queen’s Rights would shut it down.
But you could put two and two together that Whitetail was probably pregnant and stopped being so right when Onestar became a Mi.
For the record though. Listen carefully.
not every cat who is expecting will suddenly flash like a neon sign indicating it. The whole Clan will not suddenly get a text saying "DUDEHEART IS PREGNANT." Some people just don't show. Some cats don't smell that different. It's rude to ask unprompted and even worse if you guess wrong. Like real life.
Please understand.
On the Anthro-Scale, from 100% feral cat to 100% fuzzy human, BB cat gestation is closer to the feral cat than most of their other behaviors. So this is not the same "big deal" as a human pregnancy.
In general, I write "medical" topics closer to real cats than the Erins do. I mostly take "liberties" in the portrayal of disabilities so THOSE are closer to the real humans in my audience
intelligent cats are not going to be correcting me on my incorrect portrayal of Feline Diabetes, but I could unwittingly cause harm in spreading diabetic misconceptions that real people try to clear up, y'know?
Anyway. What that means is that warriors giving birth is not the federal issue that it is for humans. It's still not TOTALLY safe, but dying in childbirth is exceptionally rare, plus being much less painful and considerably faster
"The Birthing Stick" means something is wrong.
So there's several factors at play within Clans, but Out-of-Clan surrogacies are much more interesting.
These are usually arranged at Aftergatherings. They were rarer before the move to the Lake, which now sees waaaay more cross-clan friendships.
USUALLY the Clan's Cleric will be involved, which IS technically a waiving of the Queen’s Rights. Leafpool simply doesn't interpret it that way.
A more "traditional" Cleric, like Littlecloud, will NOT be involved for personal safety and comfort reasons. This makes a bad situation but that's the reality of QR (and is a reason why Fire Alone cats think QR doesn't go far enough.)
Kits are always given to the parent before 1 moon. Fading Kits aren't socially questioned if they fade before that 1st moon. So it's pretty easy to hide it.
"All of my litter was faders" is unfortunate in the way that a car accident is unfortunate. "Shit, are you ok?" "Is StarClan trying to keep a close eye on you? Are you going to try again?" Etc.
"Frequent Flyer" surrogates, like Brightheart, often keep a single kitten from each litter to avoid the implication of "bad omens."
If they aren't Brightheart who likes raising kittens with her mate, the kitten is often given to an in-Clan parent who wanted a child.
Most surrogacies aren't "free," but it does depend on who's doing it for you.
Like all other things in BB, this looks very different between generations, and depends heavily on the "attitudes" of the Clans at the tine. But, Queen’s Rights will protect you from revealing too much. STILL, surrogacies ARE harder than sirings. Just not impossible.

congrats on the milestone! I'm here to contribute- I'd like to ask for
half/sour diesel/kishibe
please and thanks! hope you're having fun with these :)
part of my 420 event
Kishibe x GN!reader
ugh i was SO hoping someone would request something sleazy with him!! this event is so perfect for him ty for requesting! 💚
🔞 mature content. MINORS DNI. 🔞
cw: alcohol & weed (shotgunning), age difference, manipulation, sleazy!kishibe, dub-con/non-con (bc you are drunk and high lol), btw do NOT do this irl unless you're a veteran cross-fader lol
Tumblr media
Kishibe held the joint to your lips, encouraging you to take a hit while he took a sip of whiskey from his flask. He'd talked you into straddling his lap by telling you it was a game. You'd take turns sipping whiskey and smoking the j and the first one to cough loses.
"Why do I need to be on your lap for this?" You asked as he handed you the flask, bringing the joint to his lips. You took a sip, a tickle in your throat from the weed and the whiskey definitely didn't help.
"You'll find out, doll." He grinned and winked, taking the flask from you and holding the spliff for you to take another hit. He took a sip, eyeing you as you pulled the smoke in. Once again, you took the flask back from him as you held the smoke in.
"What's that supposed to mean?" You said after exhaling. You put the flask to your lips and took a sip.
"Shotgun round." He smirked. As he pulled smoke from the j, your eyes widened and your back tingled with anticipation. You shouldn't be doing this kind of thing with a man his age but something about the mix of weed and alcohol, the proximity, his scent... you'd never wanted something so bad.
Kishibe gently placed a calloused hand on the back of your neck, pulling you closer as you opened your mouth in anticipation. Your lips brushed against his as he blew the smoke into your mouth and you breathed it in. It was warm, with a faint oaky undertone from the whiskey.
And, without words, you traded whiskey and weed as he took a sip and you pulled smoke again. You shotgunned Kishibe this time, both of you less skittish when your lips touched. One more sip, one more hit, one more shotgun. Your form got messy, nearly turning into a kiss. You'd have to pay more attention next time.
Except, high and drunk, that thought left you mind the second your lips touched his again. His warmth was so nice, you were all but melted onto him. And with your lips on his, you forgot the two of you were shotgunning at all. As he pulled away, your lips chased his, like gravity was pulling you back to him.
You kissed him. A languid and sloppy kiss, sure, but his grip on the back of your neck tightened and you couldn't take it back if you wanted to. He hummed into the kiss, his tongue easily finding yours, arousal bubbling up your spine. The flask and half-smoked joint were haphazardly set on the table next to you, somehow avoiding spills with the j nestled neatly on the ashtray.
Your hands found their place on either side of his face as you kissed him deeper, feeling cross-faded and horny as hell. He pushed your hips to grind you against him so you could feel how big he was. How stiff you'd already made him.
You moaned lightly, making Kishibe smirk into the kiss. After all, making you needy like this went just as he intended.

Harsh hard sync and AM sounds.
Doing Waver better justice than in the last case with it here, using two oscillators to just push each other around with all sorts of cross patching. Cold mac takes a few CV sources in to act as a drifting macro controller. Now that I've started to patch it as such, I've started to identify a performance style I fall into, responding to said drift. The faders on Waver and Ikarie really lean into this - of course while any knob can be wiggled, some modes are more conducive to this than others.
Again on the performance side, I continue to use mutes on the Acid Rains to create breakdowns and builds. When I feel like more formally structuring a song, I need to create distinct A/B sections that I can switch around rather than fully cutting something out. Hopefully the next firmware update (allegedly in the works from the modwiggler thread) will include the multi-mute-dropping I've seen a handful of users suggest. Even without it though, banger modules.

btw the same person arguing in his paper that butch lesbians are somehow more biologically male than other women also argues that gender roles are good & healthy. u can imagine what kind of agenda he has with his research.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
in his paper on lesbians he also basically argues that femme lesbians are more into men? or at least the graphics & caption in the paper imply that:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
also an actual line in the paper:
On the other hand, given that butch/ femme roles or equivalents exist cross-culturally (Allen, 2012, 2016; Asencio, 2009; Blackwood, 2010; Dynes & Donaldson, 1992; Sinnott, 2004; Whitam, Daskalos, Sobolewski, & Padilla, 1998; Zheng & Zheng, 2011, 2016) and that they persist despite feminists’ attempts to homogenize lesbians (reviewed in Fader- man, 1992; Singh et al., 1999),
what was the need in dissing feminists and pretending it’s only feminists doing this? 😐 what does he even MEAN by that line?
Tumblr media
this paper is innately questionable bc they’re basically saying they’re including “femme” bisexuals & bisexuals as separate categories and femme lesbians are grouped with “femme” bisexuals. ofc when you include bisexuals as half of “femmes” you’ll find that “femmes” tend to have “more lifetime male partners and encounters”. also i looked up the study referenced to support the claim that “butches have more masculine patterns of jealousy and mate preferences” and here’s what the study that was referenced says:
Results indicated that butches and femmes did not differ in sexual versus emotional jealousy. However, femmes were more influenced by the financial resources of potential partners than were butches. Butches and femmes also differed as to which attributes of a competitor made them the most jealous. Femmes were more jealous of a physically attractive competitor, and butches were more jealous of a wealthy competitor.
which… 😐 when u think of butch/femme culture u realise this is bc many ppl very into it often do replicate hetero gender roles and this is a SUPER weak basis to claim butches have “more masculine patterns of jealousy and mate preferences”.
A more recent study that analyzed butches and femmes separately found that butches outperformed femmes and heterosexual women on a mental rotation task, thus showing cognitive masculinization (Zheng et al., 2018).
a quick search has resulted in me finding a recent study which basically found basis to argue that self-concept plays a large role in performance in the mental rotation task. so like. this difference could very well be about women being told from a young age that we aren’t good at something & butches simply not believing that claim applies to them for whatever reason.
Tumblr media
this is just lesbophobia
anyways i gave up after reading 12 pages of this paper, but i have to say the paper itself was unconvincing, relying heavily on gender roles, & clearly includes a lot of bias. would not take this paper seriously if i were any of u

Lupe Fiasco Shows Off His Unmatched Pen in "Cake" Single From Upcoming 'Samurai'
Tumblr media
Assembling assonant syllables into sumptuous literary stanzas, Lupe Fiasco has built a his reputation off the strength of his pen game. Proving that few emcees can touch him even 20 years into his storied career, Lupe shares "Cake," his new single. Over a head-spinning instrumental from Soundtrakk, Lupe flexes like only he can, putting together intricate internal rhymes and off-kilter metaphors to assert an important message: nobody has bars like him. Locking in with Soundtrakk's swirling melodies and satisfyingly old school percussion, the Chicago rapper asserts that he's colder than a Siberian winter, with the pen game of Kurt Vonnegut and a vocabulary large enough to make a computer lose memory. He spits: "Ain't no domino in my dominance, when I'm droppin' this/Janis Jop-a-lin drop-a-lets, it sound like the apocalypse/Mixed with Christopher Wallace's topics, on top a obelisk/This a cobbleous novelist, inside of my esophagus/Rhyme as primin' as Optimus and this sh*t tastes like chocolate cake." The single arrives with a stylish, stripped-down music video directed by Chris and Blaq of IMPAKT STUDIO, which finds Lu flexing on a soundstage as he spits his verse amidst the commotion of production staff around him.
"Cake" is the second single from Samurai, Lupe's ninth studio album and one of the most personal of his career to date. The upcoming album is produced in full by Soundtrakk, making it their second full album collaboration following 2022's DRILL MUSIC IN ZION, and the first album that Lupe and Soundtrakk worked on with their longtime manager, and 1st & 15th co-CEO Charley "Chill" Patton, since 2007's The Cool. The 8-track album is smooth, yet cerebral, brimming with ideas, but always radiating Lupe’s pure love for the art of emceeing and committing himself as a servant of the rap game. Last week, Lupe introduced the album by sharing the single and music video for its title track, "Samurai," praised by Rolling Stone, Complex, Billboard, HYPEBEAST, Clash, The Needle Drop, and more. Now available to pre-save and pre-order on vinyl, Samurai arrives in both physical and digital formats on June 28th via 1st & 15th.
youtube
The upcoming Samurai is Lupe's first new album since 2022's DRILL MUSIC IN ZION, which earned critical acclaim from NPR, Complex, The FADER, and many others, including Vinyl Me Please, who wrote "At their best, Lupe’s bars are as visually and phonetically pleasing as popped bubble wrap." The product of a burst of thoughtful spontaneity, Lupe created DRILL MUSIC IN ZION over a short period, diving into a folder of beats sent by Soundtrakk and emerging with a fully-realized album in just three days. In 2023, Lupe kept busy by releasing tracks like "Wild Child (Remix)," a new version of his 2017 track created in collaboration with Chicago house luminary Vince Lawrence, and "Out There," an archival track from the 1st & 15th vault. The iconic Chicago native also settled into his position as a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he teaches "Rap Theory and Practice." Beyond music, Lupe continues to focus on the community organizations he founded, including We Are M.U.R.A.L, The Neighborhood Start-Up Fund, Society of Spoken Art, and his cross-cultural content venture, Studio SV.
Stay tuned for more announcements about Lupe Fiasco and Samurai in the coming weeks.

Lyrics, videos, info, and notable covers under the cut. (Spotify playlist available in pinned post)
As Long As You're Mine
Written By: Stephen Schwartz
Artist: Idina Menzel & Norbert Leo Butz for Wicked (OBC)
Released: 2003
This song takes place after Fiyero finally tells Elphaba and Glinda that he has feelings for Elphaba so, ending his relationship with Glinda, Elphaba and Fiyero run away together. Elphaba finds it hard to believe that a man like Fiyero could care about a girl like her since all of Oz finds her dangerous and different. Just like in the novel, Elphaba and Fiyero fall in love with each other. But in the novel, the two end up having an intense love affair. While the song greatly reduces the explicit, mature nature of their relationship that occurred in the novel, it hints sexuality.
[ELPHABA] Kiss me too fiercely Hold me too tight I need help believing You're with me tonight My wildest dreamings Could not foresee Lying beside you With you wanting me And just for this moment As long as you're mine I've lost all resistance And crossed some border line And if it turns out It's over too fast I'll make every last moment last As long as you're mine [FIYERO] Maybe I'm brainless Maybe I'm wise But you've got me seeing Through different eyes Somehow I've fallen Under your spell And somehow I'm feeling It's up that I fell [BOTH] Every moment As long as you're mine I'll wake up my body And make up for lost time [FIYERO] Say there's no future For us as a pair [BOTH] And though I may know I don't care Just for this moment As long as you're mine Come be how you want to And see how bright we shine Borrow the moonlight Until it is through And know I'll be here Holding you As long as you're mine [FIYERO] What is it? [ELPHABA] It's just… For the first time… I feel… Wicked!

we fell in love in october
Written By: girl in red
Artist: girl in red
Released: 2018
“we fell in love in october” is about girl in red and her relationship with another girl. The song is about how they fell in love during fall and Marie’s (girl in red’s) feelings toward her. In an interview with The Fader, Marie states that there was a lot of drama between the two and that she struggled accepting her. After a while when everything began to settle in, she accepted her and created this song as a tribute. This song is a prequel to girl in red’s “forget her”, which is about the two breaking up. “we fell in love in october” is girl in red’s most popular song on Spotify to date.
[Verse 1] Smoking cigarettes on the roof You look so pretty and I love this view [Pre-Chorus] We fell in love in October That's why, I love fall Looking at the stars Admiring from afar [Chorus] My girl, my girl, my girl You will be my girl My girl, my girl, my girl You will be my world My world, my world, my world You will be my girl [Verse 2] Smoking cigarettes on the roof You look so pretty and I love this view Don't bother looking down We're not going that way At least I know, I am here to stay [Pre-Chorus] We fell in love in October That's why, I love fall Looking at the stars Admiring from afar (My girl, my girl, my girl) [Chorus] My girl, my girl, my girl You will be my girl My girl, my girl, my girl You will be my girl My girl, my girl, my girl You will be my girl My girl, my girl, my girl You will be my world My world, my world, my world You will be my girl

MATOMA & BULLYSONGS TEAM UP ON ELECTRIFYING NEW SINGLE “SODIUM SKY”
Tumblr media
Norwegian cross-genre record producer and DJ Matoma, known for global hits like “All Night” with The Vamps, “I Don’t Dance” with Enrique Iglesias, and his RIAA Platinum-certified breakout hit, Matoma & The Notorious B.I.G’s “Old Thing Back (feat. Ja Rule),” has teamed up with multi-Platinum writer and musicianBullySongs for a new upbeat club single, “Sodium Sky.” The thrilling, new track is the lead single of his forthcoming album, ‘Love For The Beat, which represents a return to Matoma’s club-inspired roots. 
"We wrote 'Sodium Sky' to capture the feeling of pure escapism, being somewhere on the dance floor or in the depths of nature losing yourself to an environment of good energy." - Matoma
Following Matoma’s most recent release “Bittersweet,” “Sodium Sky” sets a new tone for his music. With its upbeat sound and gentle vocals, it will make the crowd melt. This track is the gateway to another universe where fans can bask in the positive energy. It’s that time of year when people need the reminder to live in the moment and dance the night away, and “Sodium Sky” is a hypnotic track that will draw the audience into its euphoria. “Sodium Sky” is only a taste of Matoma’s new sound and sets the stage for his upcoming album ‘Love For The Beat.’
Matoma is well-known for expressing positivity through his music and through his charitable donations. Last April, he showcased three billboards on the i-10 highway to Coachella; originally intended for promoting his new music, but with the tragic war continuing in Ukraine, he decided to put them towards raising funds and awareness for Ukraine humanitarian aid organization Music Saves UA.A video of the billboards via a drone flyover can be found HERE. Matoma’s billboards received widespread global news coverage from mainstream outlets including NME, The FADER, The Independent, MSN, Yahoo News, and Metro UK.
Since bursting onto the scene in 2015 with his RIAA gold-certified single, Matoma & The Notorious B.I.G’s “Old Thing Back (feat. Ja Rule),” which has gained close to 8 million views, Matoma has established himself as one of electronic music’s most inventive stars. “Sodium Sky” sees Matoma continuing to innovate and deliver massive collaborative efforts following his previous singles “Bittersweet,” “All Night”featuring British pop band The Vamps, “Good Vibes” featuringHRVY, “Easy To Love” with Armin van Buuren and Teddy Swims, and “Summer Feeling”featuringJonah Kagen,which scored record numbers of streams in their first week.
"It’s great to be working with Matoma again and getting high off his crazy energy. We wrote 'Sodium Sky' during lockdown, dreaming of better days ahead."- BullySongs
Since gaining popularity, BullySongs has built a reputation as an extremely creative and prolific writer and artist having been streamed over two billion times on Spotify alone. His first international hit was “No Money” by Galantis which also features his elder son on vocals. In 2018, he co-wrote “Lullaby” by Sigala & Paloma Faith. The track became a Brit-nominated UK top ten hit. In that same year, he also co-wrote “Blah Blah Blah” which is the biggest streaming release to date for Armin van Buuren and has gone platinum in multiple territories. Since then, BullySongs has continued to work with some of the most popular artists including Tiësto, DVBBS, blackbear, 24KGoldn, ITZY, Monsta X, and Little Mix.

Turntablism
Article Talk
Language
Watch
Edit
Turntablism is the art of manipulating sounds and creating new music, sound effects, mixes and other creative sounds and beats, typically by using two or more turntables and a cross fader-equipped DJ mixer.[1] The mixer is plugged into a PA system (for live events) and/or broadcasting equipment (if the DJ is performing on radio, TV or Internet radio) so that a wider audience can hear the turntablist's music. Turntablists atypically manipulate records on a turntable by moving the record with their hand to cue the stylus to exact points on a record, and by touching or moving the platter or record to stop, slow down, speed up or, spin the record backwards, or moving the turntable platter back and forth (the popular rhythmic "scratching" effect which is a key part of hip hop music),[2] all while using a DJ mixer's crossfader control and the mixer's gain and equalization controls to adjust the sound and level of each turntable. Turntablists typically use two or more turntables and headphones to cue up desired start points on different records (Greasley & Prior, 2013).DJ Qbert manipulating a record turntable at a turntablism competition in France in 2006World premiere of the Tri-Phonic Turntable, July 14, 1997, LondonRecord producer DJ Jazzy Jeffmanipulating a record turntablein England in 2005.
Turntablists, who are often called DJs (or "deejays"), generally prefer direct-drive turntables over belt-driven or other types, because the belt can be stretched or damaged by "scratching" and other turntable manipulation such as slowing down a record, whereas a direct drive turntable can be stopped, slowed down, or spun backwards without damaging the electric motor. The word turntablist is claimed to be originated by Luis "DJ Disk" Quintanilla (Primus, Herbie Hancock, Invisibl Skratch Piklz).[3] After a phone conversation with Disk, it was later popularised in 1995 by DJ Babu[4] to describe the difference between a DJ who simply plays and mixes records and one who performs by physically manipulating the records, stylus, turntables, turntable speed controls and mixer to produce new sounds. The new term coincided with the resurgence of hip-hop DJing in the 1990s.
According to most DJ historians, it is has been documented that "DJ Babu" of the "Beat Junkies" / "Dilated Peoples" was the one who originally coined the term "turntablist". In 1995 while working on the groundbreaking mixtape "Comprehension", DJ Babu hand wrote the name "Babu The Turntablist" on hundreds of copies of this mixtape to describe his style of DJing, while working on the track "Turntablism" with "D-Styles" and DJ Melo-D, Babu would say "if someone plays the piano, we call them a pianist, if someone plays the guitar, we call them a guitarist, why don't we call ourselves Turntablists?" found in the documentary "Scratch (2001 film)" which was released in 2001.
John Oswald described the art: "A phonograph in the hands of a 'hiphop/scratch' artist who plays a record like an electronic washboard with a phonographic needle as a plectrum, produces sounds which are unique and not reproduced—the record player becomes a musical instrument."[5] Some turntablists use turntable techniques like beat mixing/matching, scratching, and beat juggling. Some turntablists seek to have themselves recognized as traditional musicians capable of interacting and improvising with other performers. Depending on the records and tracks selected by the DJ and their turntablist style (e.g., hip hop music), a turntablist can create rhythmic accompaniment, percussion breaks, basslinesor beat loops, atmospheric "pads", "stabs" of sudden chords or interwoven melodic lines.
The underground movement of turntablism has also emerged to focus on the skills of the DJ. In the 2010s, there are turntablism competitions, where turntablists demonstrate advanced beat juggling and scratching skills.
