Putting together a techno set for tomorrow. I'm not a proper techno DJ, I don't have the knowledge or collection. Still I spin techno once or twice a year anyway just to hear something different (even if I don't have anything new to play).

The fifth Questing For Glory RPG speedrun marathon is starting right now over on the RPG Limit Break twitch channel:
First game is Legend Of Dragoon. I think the marathon runs this whole week. I like RPG runs & I like the RPGLB crew so I'll be watching this when I can.

Watched the latest RLM video, the one about the movie "After Last Season" (2009), and I'm kinda dismayed that I really want to see the movie now. It looks... bad, but also intentionally alien and weird, two things I like. It made me think of Saul Bass's movie "Phase IV" for some reason.
Mid 130s electro today. Bright, then spiky and sharp, then moody at the end. Nothing too new here (that I can see). Good tracks though including pieces by Kan3da, MNLTH, Scape One, Solitary Dancer, and more.

Today I learned that the Quake mod Arcane Dimensions has a nice clean implementation of a grappling hook. It works a bit like the old hook that came with the QW CTF mod.
Which is good because I definitely couldn't figure out the math for a grappling hook on my own.
~130 BPM electro & IDM today featuring a few recent purchases by Cignol, NULLPTR, and Vektorspace, as well as three tracks from the reliably excellent CPU Records.

Music shopping today. Picked up Submolecular by Scape One (there's a deal on it right now), two EPs by Vektorspace, NULLPTR's most recent EP (from July of last year), an EP by Docta Gee, and preordered Breakbeater / Detronic by Paradox.
A little over 20 USD. Good haul. Excited to play the Vektorspace & NULLPTR soon, and the Detronic when it releases.

I am happy to report that the MSI PRO B550M-VC WIFI motherboard works nicely with #FreeBSD 13.1.
All the board functions I've tested so far have worked. Both SATA controllers (chipset and additional ASMedia ASM116x), ethernet (RealTek 8168/8111), sound (RealTek ALC897). I believe the WIFI is supported by iwlwifi(4) though I haven't tried it. Bluetooth appears to be unsupported.

Finished "Rum Punch" by Elmore Leonard today. My second Leonard after Get Shorty. His books really fly by, they read like they've been skillfully reduced to the bare essentials. Great dialog of course. I enjoyed it but I don't think I'd want to read his books quickly, one after another.

Upgrading to FreeBSD 13 in preparation for hardware upgrades in the near future. Been putting it off for months.
This means I have to say goodbye to the bktr driver (and my old PCI Hauppage WinTV), it was removed from 13. I'm sad to see it go.
85-95 downtempo, IDM, and tracker music. Starting with a slow set this month, reversing the trend. Five tracks from Tokyo Dawn (still excited at having found so much good music in that catalog), a few from Most Valuable Playaz, old pieces by DJ Wally, Michna, Pete Rock, and more.

Tracker drum & bass for the final mix of 2022. Eight (!) tracks from Tokyo Dawn Records, two from Most Valuable Playaz, and four from Language Lab, plus one old non-tracker favorite by T.Power.

Tracker mods! The sixth annual Movement Through Thought tracker music show. This mix features recent pieces from the Assembly 2022 and Revision 2022 tracked music competitions as well as a bunch of tunes from Tokyo Dawn and a few old favorites.

Acid (mostly house, a little breaks) for number 303. A couple of tracks from Creme Organization, a couple from Mantra's Second Age EP, a couple from the Swishcotheque Acid Cuts 1 compilation, a couple from Chris Moss Acid. Pretty energetic stuff.
Profanity warning for this one, there's some swearing in here (somewhere).
