My story

 Here we are in spring break at the end of my first winter quarter. It went well to put it shortly. I accomplished all my academic goals, we made ICPC NAC which was totally an imagination before this quarter, and I kind of just found my spot, my flow, and my rhythm in college culture and life. References: freshmen winter quarter halfway freshmen fall quarter Academics I took 4 classes this quarter:   - AM 10 (Applied Math Linear Algebra)  - CSE 16 (Applied Discrete Mathematics)  - CSE 12 (Computer Systems and Assembly)  - MUSC 80P (US Popular Music) Looking back at my winter quarter halfway post, I said that this quarter was definitely harder than fall. I'm not sure if that's still true, as finals week was def less grueling than fall quarter. However, I did certainly have more work overall, so it was still prob harder than fall quarter. AM 10 (Applied Math Linear Algebra) This class is a lot of work but at the end of the day the quizzes and exams are all su...

Melodic Dubstep Is Losing Creativity Melodic dubstep was my prime and it was my soul during 2019, 2020, 2021 namely. Highlighted by Virtual Riot, Teminite, Au5, Seven Lions, Trivecta, and also Crystal Skies, Derpcat among others, this genre was truly incredible. It's made up of powerful, uplifting, and heavenly chords with beautiful melodies. The drops are so dynamic within itself and it paints a soundscape that no other genre or subgenre achieves. And then you fill the gaps with the dubstep components which bring so much flow, strength, contrast, and fire. Melodic dubstep was my core where I branched into similar genres like future bass, electro house, and riddim. It was my obsession then, so look where we are now. Melodic dubstep is now being represented by the likes of Illenium, Dabin, ARMNHMR, Said the Sky, Kaskade, William Black, and these songs that I listen to don't get me wrong are fine tracks, but they are so incredibly bland and formulaic. Evertime I listen to the new...

As seen as in  cavs4twdiary.blogspot.com , thought this was worth sharing on the main blog: Today was a very busy day, quite hectic to be honest. Tuesdays and Thursdays are the only two days I don't have class. The only responsibility I have is discussion section in the morning, after that I am free to do whatever I want. Here's what I did today 8:40 AM = woke up, arrived at my discussion section at like 9 AM, it started at 8:30 AM but I can be late because I need to get my sleep in. I think I did bad on my quiz but its whatever 9:30 AM = Came back to my dorm, got my bag ready and took an ebike to the gym. 11:30 AM = Finished my workout, I did push, I think my form is bad because my forearm started feeling weird after some sets but whatever I'll figure it out later. At this point I went to play basketball but apparently there was some class going on that ended at 12 PM. So I was either gonna go back to my dorm or wait out the 30 min, so I decided to go to Stephenson coffee ...

   Welcome to the February installment of new EDM. I actually listened to like every song released this month and wrote out reviews for all of them which took up a lot of time. I won't be doing this for next month as it would also make these posts more concise and breathable I presume.  But anyway, there's always new music coming out it's actually pretty crazy, it's lowkey hard to keep up with sometimes. This month we got some Beyonce, Dua Lipa, Selena Gomez, SZA in the pop scene, along with new Grant, NOTD, Fox Stephenson, Madeon, Owl City, and Eliminate's album. Also worth noting is as I wrap up this blog post here on March 1st, we've just found out that Porter  has finished his 3rd album  which is so soon for his standards as he released Nurture in 2021. This pink theme reminds me of a lighthearted hyperpop type vibe, I'm VERY EXCITED for this new album, Porter hasn't released new music in a while. Albums and EPs 1/25 =  new grey EP  - Lots to talk ...
