Playing thru #quake1 AD Tears Of The False God for the second time tonight. Will stream Shadowrun Dragonfall for a bit afterward.
Cameron Paul Tells All
Cameron Paul Tells All on youtube.com. 1989 DJing & tape editing & remixing VHS instructional video from legendary San Francisco DJ Cameron Paul. I watch it every now and then to see a pro at work. Posting about it today because I watched it again recently.
Records from Cameron Paul's remix service Mixx-It aren't hard to find in the local shops here. I've always loved coming across them, reading the name "Cameron" on a record full of electro and freestyle. The only one I have myself is Mixx-It 23, an awesome 12" of freestyle edits. It can be heard on youtube if you're curious.
Cameron Paul sadly passed away in 2018. RBMA has an excellent article looking back on his life & career and Cameron himself told a lot of his story through social media (including at this old blog). Rest in peace Cameron Paul.

And, incidentally, all three of the Harebrained Schemes Shadowrun games run perfectly fine on FreeBSD thru the Linux compatibility layer. (After installing the linux-c7 package and its dependencies).

So I finished Shadowrun Returns tonight and started its sequel Dragonfall. It's striking how much better the writing is in Dragonfall - better dialog, better scene setting, better worldbuilding. It's my favorite of the three Harebrained Schemes Shadowrun games, I love it a lot.
There's a *lot* of text to read though.

Streaming Shadowrun Returns tonight (because I like it and want to read to myself). I think I'm near the end so I might try to finish the game.
MTT 290 / Kind Of Simulation
Electro & techno in the 120s. Nothing new here I'm afraid, I think the most recent track is from last year, but good tunes nonetheless. (Some classics, some records I play a lot, and so on).

Practicing today. I have a bunch of good songs in a list and none of them sound right when mixed together. Frustrating. One of those evenings, I guess.

#quake1 Tears Of A False God was really really good. I think I ended the map with something like 750 enemies killed and 14 out of 16 secrets discovered.

I'm finishing #quake1 Arcane Dimensions on stream tonight. I have Tears Of A False God and the ending map left. Might continue Shadowrun Returns after that.

A distant wildfire has made the air outside unsafe, nasty. So I've had my window closed all day. It's gotten stifling in here, warm and heavy. I miss the cool breeze we had a few days ago.

Starting up more #quake1 Arcane Dimensions at https://twitch.tv/andreaen. Will probably continue Shadowrun Returns later, in two or three hours.

I'm continuing #quake1 Arcane Dimensions on stream tonight. Might do a bit of Shadowrun Returns later, depends on how deep into AD I go.
Andreaen on Twitch
About a month ago I started streaming video games at twitch.tv/andreaen. I split my time there between Quake and other games, currently Arcane Dimensions and Shadowrun Returns. I'm live three or four days a week (never on Wednesday or Thursday). Time of day varies depending on my sleep schedule.
One thing I won't be doing on twitch is streaming DJ sets, at least for the near future. Mixcloud seems like a better place for that anyway.
The name "Andreaen" is, of course, a reference to Andreaen Sand Dunes by Drexciya, my favorite track on Neptune's Lair.
So if you want to hang out, watch some video games, maybe talk about how heavy records are, twitch is a good place for it.
