It's been a long time since I'd looked at this, and now that I know a bit more about music production, this is still a solid intro to making beats or electronic music.

I wish it let you at least load a handful of kit samples so you could make something sound a little more like the genre of music you like, but things like this show that making music isn't hard. Making good music is hard, but making music for yourself to enjoy, use as a form a therapy, or as a way to learn new things, is easy.

It's just a process of learning to arrange little pieces into bigger patterns that catch and hold your attention. It's the same as when you learned to speak, from saying mama to being fluent. You're still using the same alphabet, but you can use it to let people know what you are feeling.

If you enjoy this, you can try an app like Caustic or Koala Sampler, or buy a decent used instrument. Also, the sooner you make music with others, the faster you will progress because you can learn from their successes and mistakes and it helps branch out your ideas

I read about this a few years ago and it has stuck with me ever since. They go easy beyond abuse and will kill them for their body parts for medicine and food luck charms.

It feels like some people are living on a totally different planet. It's hard to imagine this stuff going on at the same time we're landing on asteroids and such.

Very valid points. I forgot WordPad existed and I use Notepad way more than I've ever used WordPad. But many people still havent really used computers much in depth beyond specific things they've been shown.

I know I could just use Google Docs or throw LibreOffice in there, but many people now in retirement age have still managed to dodge learning much about computers.

If you deliver a new computer that can't type a letter, send an email, and play YouTube out of the box, that seems like a fail. And I feel many that won't know what do do without something like WordPad also may not have an Internet connection, nor should they have to if they just need a presentable looking doc.

Zom has been such a huge hit for me. I have been taking it kinda personal. I'm losing my job at the end of the month, and after 3 years of working from home and having so much if my life back under my control, the thought of even 3 days in office, let alone 5, is crushing me on to of all the other bad news I've been getting lately. I really feel for what the MC is going through.

I had watched S1 of JJK, and I read a decent bit ahead in the manga, but MHA and CSM gave me what I liked from JJK and did it better, so I dropped it completely.

Just checked out the trailer for Murder Farce since some others mentioned that too. That looks pretty interesting to say the least. This thread has gotten me so many new things to watch

Yes, the color effects instead of outright gore I think are more dramatic. My brain is expecting the red, but the bright bold colors add a bit of surprise to the moment. It's a very creative show and has been a positive surprise for me when I want exciting much from many shows this season.

Dang, there's only 2 on that list that I've watched and actually stuck with.

Aww, I tried to keep it really vague in case anyone hadn't seen it. Most of what I said is set up in the first episode though. This show doesn't hold back in the savage parts though, even though so far it's mainly about him trying to have fun. There is a good bit of stuff you probably haven't seen before to look forward to!

Zom 100 is such a unique zombie show. He stays so positive in spite of everything. The show is both brutal and funny from the beginning, and there are a lot of moments I haven't seen before in other zombie shows and movies.

(Edited to remove ep 1 spoilers)

Ooo I haven't thought about Escaflowne in forever! Some of those noses remind me of Queen Hilling from Ranking of Kings.

I forgot about Shimoneta completely. I do remember watching the first episode or 2, but I never ended up going back to it.

I just actually read that Helck thread. It seems I haven't been seeing them because I have bots blocked. I'm torn turning it off, but there's so many posts with no talking.

I had expected Helck to be like I Quit Heroing, but it started more like the arena scene from Thor: Ragnarok. Even the fights so far have been relatively comedic with things like the shield guy that needs constant snacks and people calling Vermilion cutesy things and she gets all mad. The last episodes finally started hinting at dark things though. I'd like the plot to get deeper, but I really like a lot of the fun interactions. I also love Piwi, especially when he plays dumb like he was a regular bird.

The reactions to the spiders and wolves are one of my favorite gags in Farming Life. I like when the spider just waves hello to the people cowering in fear and then she just goes off and eats potatoes. The drunken slime is also fun. I'd party with that guy.

I read a bit of the wiki and it seems MC just guess around knocking everyone up, so I'm torn continuing watching the show. I like all the girls and animals, MC is just so bland though. He doesn't have any struggles. He doesn't seem to care much for anyone in particular. He didn't even sweat fighting any monsters so far. If they ditched him and just had fantasy Yuru Camp in the forest, I think I'd prefer that.

Thanks! I'll check out the new one, and then if I like it I know there's more.

That's a lot of plot lines to keep track of, impressive!

Which one or 2 are your favorites?
