You got an answer, you just didn't like it.

No, they are different. One of them exists, and the other is fanfiction about the other.

90% of the time I know what I want to listen to.

The other 10% of the time I will listen to new things I've squirreled away in my personal listening queue, because the art was interesting, I've heard good things, or I randomly heard a song I like. Sometimes recommendations from friends will make it into that queue.

Random mixes, not usually. I'm far too picky. But there are niche subgenre mixes that can be good.

Are there any consistent flaws with the songs I write, or just anything I could improve on in general?

Chiptune is hard to critique because of the self-imposed limitations.

Your best bet is to use reference tracks. Pick a song you like by an established artist that sounds similar to what you want to make, drag it into your DAW, and compare your decisions against that song each step of the way. Music production is a bunch of different skills that can be practiced and improved, and a reference track can give you a clear goal for each of them.

Sorry, I should have known better to have included it.

Link to a YouTube short I saw with apparent bot activity in the comments. The psyop is real.

It's not always this obvious

Yup, I'm almost through the process right now. $0 cost to me (they're paying me a $250 bonus as well). My home is more than 30 years old, contrary to what another comment said about the feasibility of such a program in the US. It's definitely possible in Canada!

Oh, strange. It's still working for me on mobile.

The Firefox extension Old Reddit Redirect works great. However, fuck Reddit.

I'm not sure what's up, but I'm having difficulty seeing images you post (here and elsewhere/ in posts)

Hello. I'm looking for a men's windbreaker / rain / spring type jacket of acceptable quality and price. I've been looking briefly online and noticed either expensive or US-made (Patagonia), or recognizable brands with terrible reviews saying they're fake or dogshit quality (Columbia, North Face).

Things I'm looking for in said jacket:

-zipper, not buttons

-waterproof or at least water-resistant

-black like my soul

-made in Canada, if possible

-logos or branding kept to a minimum

-delivery if possible

-a hood

Here are a couple pics of the style I'm looking for.

 

It's a bit of a meme among (some?) music producers that picking the right snare sound takes 12 hours and still ends up sounding like dogshit in a wet paper bag. This is more in the electronic / beatmaking circles as I understand, but I'm sure there might be some overlap with production involving live/acoustic drums as well.

So, I want to know some examples of snare drums that you love. Please try to describe why you are fond of it.

For me the one I think of first is the snare sound on Deftones' album White Pony. It has such a satisfying crack paired with a big haunting room reverb. Example: Deftones - Digital Bath

I think I gravitate towards snare with some body to them, as in some lower mid-range. If I grab a regular 808 snare, I find I like to boost a bit of the 200-300hz-ish range to achieve that.

Some more examples off the top of my head: Blue Oyster Cult - I Love the Night

Filejacker - The Dark Masters

I also enjoy an oddball snare sound with character (at least I think it's a (closed?) snare and not a tom) : Joy Division - She's Lost Control
