Remixlive is very cool!

  I use the DJay Pro app for all my mixtapes. In the app, there is a feature called 'Looper Packs' where the Djay Pro software will use the sounds in these packs to line up the bpm(beats per minute) and play alongside whichever song the user plays. I got a kick out of these as it allows one to make remixes on the fly. This is where the 'Looper Packs' option is located on the DJay Pro app I've done it a few times in the past. You can listen to an example in my August 2024 Dancehall Mixtape( click here for that )at the 24-minute mark, where I do so with Jquan's 'Chakka.'  YouTuber Justin Spiegel has an excellent channel where he talks tips, tricks, and observations about the Djay Pro app. In this particular video, he mentioned Remixlive; my ears perked up. I didn't know there were apps that specialized in these looper packs.  After more research, YouTuber DJ Dre discussed using Remixlive with Novation's Launchpad X MIDI grid controller. The app is ...

Playing 'Warped Kart Racers' on Apple Arcade...Starring characters from Family Guy.

  I've been playing some violent games lately.  Wolfenstein 2 and The Callisto Protocol, you can find some of those recent streams here and here .  I decided to play something lighter and chose Warped Kart Racers on Apple Arcade. The Playstation 5 Dual Sense controller connected easily to my Mac Mini, and I was literally 'off to the races.'  The Xbox controller is preferred but won't connect via Bluetooth if the AA batteries have a mid-low charge. Never having played Warped Kart Racers, I had a fun time. For the next Apple Arcade game I stream, I have to figure out how to fit the play screen to fit OBS, as the screen is oversized during this session.  Learning OBS is very much a work in progress. Here's my Warped Kart Racers gameplay. YouTube version I've been streaming more often on Twitch.  My username is Paul_v_perez, check me out. Thanks for watching!

Playing more of 'The Callisto Protocol' and talking about Captain America Brave New World. Also my thoughts on last night's WWE NXT Vengeance Day and AEW Grand Slam Australia Events.

I also give a small snippet of my incoming spoiler review of Captain America: Brave New World.  Finally I discuss WWE NXT's Vengeance Day and AEW Grand Slam Australia.  Two pro wrestling events which took place Saturday, February 15th. Thoughts, comments do so below. YouTube video

Captain America Brave New World Out of the Theater Thoughts (Review Coming Soon)

  Jason G. and myself went to see Captain America: Brave New World this past Thursday.  Here's our out-of-the-theater thoughts, spoiler free.   Spoiler review is coming soon.

'Best Intentions' Action Figure Story starring WWE's AJ Styles, AEW's Chris Jericho, Batman's The Penguin, and Ezekiel from The Walking Dead.

  I've been working on this for a long time.  But I have been lazy most of the time and not completed the work. I'm learning how to produce future action-figure stories throughout this process.  It's similar to making a movie(I think)—first the script, then the storyboard.  Shoot the figures in the sets.  Following the script and storyboard, the number of photographs is determined. Hire the voice actors on Fiverr.  Edit everything together.  I use Artlist for the sound effects and background music. Canva for some extra picture elements. Another process I used was this comic book filter above the photographs as I drew in character expressions. I didn't just want to see the same action figure face in all the shots.  Finally, Kling AI's image to video(a recent addition to the process)to animate the pictures a little. This is part 1, and I plan to get part 2 out this year.  As I said, I'd love to do more of these.  It's my way of making movi...

Soca Mixtape February 2025
