DJ. You’ll groove, scrub the ground, or jack your body to what I spin. I share my mixes, music I like, & talk about music-related stuff on this page! Listen to recordings here: https://soundcloud.com/okrahound I stream here: https://twitch.tv/okrahound
What up? They call me okrahound, & I think cds are neat.
I might just record my attempts at mixing them on an old CDJ I got, & put them on SoundCloud as an archive of progress.
This is the silliest song I've ever made according to me, and you have to listen to it youtu.be/BgLuVQGFmRk?...
Turntables set up & new stylus got.
Time to teach myself how to mix records!!!
This game (& a Fatboy Slim CD my dad owned) heavily contributed to my music tastes growing up.
mid-tempo cunty vibes for those in need
#SpaceSynth records combine elements of #SpaceDisco & #ItaloDisco. #Koto’s 1985 single “Visitors” became a prime example of the genre. Writer #LucyOrr said, “it’s cardinal influence holds steady” & critic #CyrusSteed called it “a cosmic masterpiece”- it was a Starck fave

Goals for this year:
1. Get more competent with mixing physical media & on CDJs.
2. Get more involved in the local scene.
3. Land more local gigs.
4. Land gig that my family will actually hit up?
5. Do a jam with local djs?
#2 & #3 are at least slowly progressing, & should further as it get warmer.
recording is up awrf

PURE HELL was the first Black punk band. They lasted from 1974-1979, but a falling out with their manager meant their record didn’t come out until 2010. I gave it a listen:

Genuinely take a chance on new music without any names you've heard of involved. Find the people you will be excited about in the next twenty years vs. waiting for your faves from the last twenty years.
Or unearth an older discography to be obsessed with. Do full artist listens.
Ice out
I've been slacking on dropping stuff in here. But I do got some stuff to share!
Just been busy with... uhhhhh... local happenings.
Please enjoy.

I get tired of saying it, but I’ll say it again: the nature of oppression in America is that they workshop it first on Black, Latino, Asian & Native people.
But it is always, in the end, coming for everyone.
wanted to share a linktree that has tons of mutual aid options for donating to people in mn. good resource for people that want to contribute but don't know how at the moment

I need people who don’t live in the Twin Cities to stop telling people not to join massive Signal groups right now. People are doing it. They’re going to keep doing it. Give them good advice about it.
The actually practical advice is don’t say anything to 1000 strangers you wouldn’t say in public
Trump, and likely Miller who is the guiding force behind all this, think the Insurrection Act is a "I win" button. It's not, at all, he's right that it's been invoked before and he should really look at those circumstances.
Invoking it for Minneapolis likely weakens his position long-term even.
For people elsewhere who have asked how to support Minnesota while we’re overrun with nazi thugs, here’s an excellent list of places that could use financial help. Lots of choices. Thank you so much!

Stay aware, alert, and prepared.
Iceout.org is an informative site where you can see real time witness reports of ICE and their locations: observed, active, and critical.
It is more important than ever to share these resources. Do not ignore what is happening.
Can confirm. My brother's boss had to leave a meeting because they're terrorizing her kid's daycare. This is just what passes for normal now in the cities.
Let’s keep the pace right here.
A few that don’t rush past the moment.
🎵 Give Me the Night — George Benson
Easy glide.
🎵 Never Too Much — Luther Vandross
Pure lift.
🎵 Still — Jordan Rakei
Quiet focus.
🎵 Remind Me — Róisín Murphy
Moves without pushing.
Yeah…
things are right where they need be.
