Here's my music, want to network
Pete Jones posted a topic in Hobby Project ClassifiedsHi guys, I've been having trouble trying to network. I want to work on some small free games like something posted to itch.io or something similar. I've obviously been offering to do the music for free. I've posted on itch.io community forums, on Facebook groups, twitter, I've directly emailed people and not one person bothers to get back to me. I thought since I was offering to do this stuff for free it wouldn't be too difficult and I'm positive my music isn't that bad. Any help in this matter would be appreciated. Here's my tracks if you want a listen.
Need some REAL Music
Stillo Entertainment posted a topic in Hobby Project Classifiedslittle bit about us, we are Stillo a 3 man team who have 2 projects in the work, that are in need of sound. these projects are simple physics puzzle that are a bit repetitive, and randomly generated so they are infinite. the core mechanics are good but this isn't the time of space invaders and games like these have a short shelf life. so we looking for some music that can accompany the games, instead of the bog standard background track. i am looking for someone who are interesting in having there music heard. while doing some research for these projects we came across a game call 'PitchUp'. our games have a similar style of mechanics and pace. pitchup's designers decided to use an album from the artist Dlay, instead of repeating a backing track. a song plays until an ad which is 5 or so respawns, this relates to about 2 minutes of game play, after the ad a new song starts. similar to our games there is not much need for long delays between spawns, which causes problems when trying to keep the game from being repetitive in longer play sessions. they seem to have solved this problem with having the album in game. the ads brake up the game and the new track gives the player a sense of a fresh start after an ad. stillo are looking for a producer who is willing to contribute a list of tracks or an album that could fit in with our style of project. we are looking for something electronic with an eerie vibe around 110 dpm eg. techno, synthwave, vaporwave etc. comment or email us a link to your soundcloud or other online music hosting place, we will be in contact if we like your stuff. firstname.lastname@example.com
Beat Drop Game Development
Ravenarch posted a blog entry in Game DevelopmentsBeat Drop was originally named Dot.RBG on the first and only iteration of its game design document, as it was supposed to be a very simple red, green & blue color game, of which you would match the button you pressed to open the same colored gate, allowing a ball to pass through, the game was just that as originally planned. Here's a nice GIF to show you what we mean: Now, this was the final look we had in our heads when designing this game on paper, but once we started developing the game in the Unity editor our programmer made it nice and clear that he was capable of doing anything. I mean what did we expect from an ex-Google employee? So we took to the design board (our whiteboard) and created this amazing new game which has so much potential, charisma. We plan on doing things in this game that no other game (that we know of) has done before. MUSIC INTEGRATION Dot.RGB would later change its name to Beat Drop as we wanted a stronger music presence in the game, we introduced a few "Non licensed" tracks into the unreleased versions of the game that catered around EDM (Electronic Dance Music). In the unreleased version of the game we listened to the likes of Bassnectar and other great EDM artists, we then tested the game over and over until we introduced the idea of a music media widget that would allow you to pause the game and give the player options to skip track, pause track, repeat all, repeat 1 or shuffle the current playlists, the playlist we had already predefined for the game... Which currently consists of 3 tracks to keep the file size down. The music player can be swiped in with your thumb from either the right or left side of the screen (catering to both left handed and right handed people) showing the current track, artists, album and album cover, even it's current genre, this will also pause the game and to up-pause you'd simply have to swipe the widget back out. THE STORE With the introduction of the store we wanted to give the player the ability to personalise their game play, by offering wallpapers that would replace the background art to Beat Drop, these wallpapers were originally planned to cost the player real money before it was decided that we would offer up in game currency for playing the game and watching adverts, this would mean the game stayed completely free and that the only people paying were the advertising companies, in return you would eventually be able to purchase a wallpaper and set it as a Beat Drop background, along with this feature we'd like to make it possible to download the wallpaper to the device and use it there. The prices shown here are how much you'd have to spend of in-game currency that would be earned in-game by watching the "Watch Ad" button on the home page and playing the game, of which 10% of the points you earned would be converted into our in-game currency. Along with wallpapers we plan on making ball skin, the only example of these skin purchases are in the form of the lava ball. BEAT DROP BECOMES COLOR FALL The more we played Beat Drop the more we realised that we wanted more music integration, we wanted the game to play along with the beat and with the current version of Beat Drop it was impossible for us to integrate music into any more than we had, so we took a look at the other two games we had in the color series and decided what game was better for the next step we had in mind, and there it was, the original "Color Fall" would become our new "Beat Drop" and the old "Beat Drop" would take on the name "Color Fall"... Complicated, I'd say so. Here's an example of what Color Fall now dubbed as Beat Drop was in its original state. In this game mode, you will be falling on the spot and you'd have to press the color you wanted the ball to move to, doing this would move the ball, and avoid obstacles. This would later become our new Beat Drop and with this, we'd be able to spawn in the obstacles with the beat, kick, snare or bass of the song, all we had to do now was update it from the above GIF into the below image. WHY PLAY TO ENHANCE Play to enhance was an idea that I came up with when designing the game, instead of things like "Early access" or "Beta", "Play to Enhance" would just imply that the more the player plays the game, and watches adverts we as the developer would gain advert revenue which would be fed right back into making the game, as we the developers are working for free, we have spent £0 on this game, and gained £0 from making this game, thus far... But the sad truth is that we need money to function, and instead of taking money straight from the player we'd rather take money straight from advertising companies, all we ask is that you play the game so we can get these great features into the game. Features yet to come: - Social integration: The ability to post your score on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. - Create your own playlists (using music you've downloaded onto your mobile device) - Leaderboards. - InGame currency (gained by playing the game & watching adverts) - Store (will consist of purchasable wallpapers & ball skins using "Game currency") - Download purchased Wallpapers to your mobile device. - Updated point system with multipliers and SFX's. - Beat Drop (game mode) - Watch advert button (gain "Game currency" by watching adverts) - Daily rewards.

Sound designer looking for a project!
Eetutah posted a topic in Hobby Project ClassifiedsHello guys and gals! My name is Eetu. I'm a sound design student from Finland, looking for a project to work on. As I'm very much of a beginner I wouldn't take any money from it as experience is what I'm looking for. My background is in music (electronic mostly) but as I was more introduced to sound design in my school, it feels more like the field I'd like to work on. I have some experience on Audio recording but mostly editing and mixing. I'm also working on a project on Wwise at the moment so I have the basics of it covered. So if you have any project you need sound design on, contact me here or with e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com Here's some earlier stuff I've worked on: https://vimeo.com/261660005 https://vimeo.com/261661580 https://vimeo.com/261664743 (The audio and video went offsync during the upload to vimeo.) Thanks in advance! Eetu

Composer/song writer since childhood, looking for work
Jacob Ornberg posted a topic in Hobby Project ClassifiedsHi! I have always liked the concept of writing my own work. From my middleschool pop songs written while getting a grasp of the piano to my planned concept album in the works, the need of creative output has always been there. Parallell to this I have also been a huge fan of video games and particulary video game music. Although I have not always had the time to play I still try to keep myself up to date regarding the industry and what new games are releasing. My biggest inspiration when it comes to game music I would say is Koji Kondo and his simple yet timeless melodies. Outside of that my musical references span from soul to modern pop to jazz or even classical music. I produce myseft and am a fan of music production of all kinds. I like experimenting with diferent soundscapes and all kinds of ambience. More than that I am experinced with musical theory and harmony while still valuing a good melody the most. Genres I would like to compose for: (anything really, always up for a challenge), Adventure games, RPG's, singelplayer in generall My soundcloud, with the first steps towards an album (quite frequently updated); Music I wrote a couple of years ago (some pieces are quite influenced by VG music, also note the lesser production value): http://pocketband.net/song/166783240 , http://pocketband.net/song/162594038

Have a listen on our soundcloud "soundcloud.com/tradingcash," a lot of our older stuff is in the process of being remastered, but we've learnt a lot since we uploaded the songs. Do bear in mind that our music style might not be for all, but if your project could use a bit of experimental techno/synthwave then please get in touch. Our ONE AND ONLY condition is that you give our band a soundtracking credit, even if we're crammed in the small print next to the T&Cs we'll be happy chappies. Look forward to hearing from some of you, hopefully,
Starting in Videogame Music
antoniorv6 posted a topic in Music and Sound FXHi there! Well, as the subject describes itself. I would like to start in videogame music and composition. I do know some Music Theory and have some notions on how to play the piano, and also in my Degree we have some subjects refered to Sound and Music, but I would like to go a little bit deeper. Anyway, I'd like to know if it there is any site, course, or bibliography refered to all of this, even if it starts from the basic of the basics. Also would be interesting if it is there any good reference to study all the software related to the theme. It would be great if anyone could give me some advice, because now I am a little bit lost. Thank you!

Advice Game Audio For Beginners
devbyskc posted a topic in For BeginnersHi Everyone, Like most here, I'm a newbie but have been dabbling with game development for a few years. I am currently working full-time overseas and learning the craft in my spare time. It's been a long but highly rewarding adventure. Much of my time has been spent working through tutorials. In all of them, as well as my own attempts at development, I used the audio files supplied by the tutorial author, or obtained from one of the numerous sites online. I am working solo, and will be for a while, so I don't want to get too wrapped up with any one skill set. Regarding audio, the files I've found and used are good for what I was doing at the time. However I would now like to try my hand at customizing the audio more. My game engine of choice is Unity and it has an audio mixer built in that I have experimented with following their tutorials. I have obtained a great book called Game Audio Development with Unity 5.x that I am working through. Half way through the book it introduces using FMOD to supplement the Unity Audio Mixer. Later in the book, the author introduces Reaper (a very popular DAW) as an external program to compose and mix music to be integrated with Unity. I did some research on DAWs and quickly became overwhelmed. Much of what I found was geared toward professional sound engineers and sound designers. I am in no way trying or even thinking about getting to that level. All I want to be able to do is take a music file, and tweak it some to get the sound I want for my game. I've played with Audacity as well, but it didn't seem to fit the bill. So that is why I am looking at a better quality DAW. Since being solo, I am also under a budget contraint. So of all the DAW software out there, I am considering Reaper or Presonus Studio One due to their pricing. My question is, is investing the time to learn about using a DAW to tweak a sound file worth it? Are there any solo developers currently using a DAW as part of their overall workflow? If so, which one? I've also come across Fabric which is a Unity plug-in that enhances the built-in audio mixer. Would that be a better alternative? I know this is long, and maybe I haven't communicated well in trying to be brief. But any advice from the gurus/vets would be greatly appreciated. I've leaned so much and had a lot of fun in the process. BTW, I am also a senior citizen (I cut my programming teeth back using punch cards and Structured Basic when it first came out). If anyone needs more clarification of what I am trying to accomplish please let me know. Thanks in advance for any assistance/advice.
Advice/opinion needed!

You would never give a slug this much attention, but this isn't your average sea slug.
Jorunna parva or sea bunnies (just look at those ears!) have been spotted all over Japanese users' social media sites this week. The cute balls of fluff that are either white or yellow have been taking over the Twitterverse, Japanese news site Rocket News 24 reports.
While some may be bothered by the slug's appearance calling it slimy or moldy (like some editors here), others are completely overwhelmed with its cuteness. Some Twitter users have also compared this miniature sea bunny to the likes of Pokemon Pikachu — hey, we see it.
Jorunna parva can be found underwater in the Pacific Ocean and parts of Japan. Rocket News 24 also notes the Japanese name for jorunna parva is gomafu biroodo umiushi, "which loosely translates to black speckled velvet sea slug." SO CUTE.
Check out these squirmy creatures below:

LR Senergy have completed their independent technical report on Faroe's reserves for 2015, and the 2015 year-end numbers are materially higher than those reported for year-end 2014. Proved plus Probable 2P reserves net to Faroe at 1 January 2016 have been estimated at 60.6 mmboe, representing an increase of 98.0 per cent. as compared to 30.6 mmboe at 1 January 2015. The principal differences result from:
- Adding the Butch field in Norway (Faroe 15%) to 2P Reserves: in October 2015, the operator Centrica and partners announced that the Butch field will be developed as a subsea tie-back to the BP-operated Ula field. LR Senergy has assessed Butch 2P Reserves net to Faroe at 6.4 mmboe;
- Adding Pil field in Norway (Faroe 25%) to 2P reserves: LR Senergy has evaluated the progress that has been made by the operator VNG Norge AS and partners in maturing the Pil discovery towards project selection in 2016, and has also evaluated the development options, which have been demonstrated to be economically viable. On that basis, LR Senergy has concluded that the volumes associated with the Pil project can be categorised as 2P Reserves. These have been assessed at 23.8 mmboe net to Faroe. The Pil 2P Reserves do not include the volumes associated with the Bue and Boomerang discoveries, which are currently less mature technically and will remain as Contingent Resources for the time being;
- Further 2P Reserves have been added through the acquisition of Roc Oil (GB Holdings) Limited: LR Senergy have assessed 2P Reserves associated with the acquired 12.5% interest in the Blane Unit and 12.0% interest in the Enoch Unit at 1.6 mmboe;
- In addition, a number of positive technical revisions have allowed partial reserves replacement in the existing producing fields.
The table below presents the 2P Reserves net to Faroe by geographic location and split in terms of oil and liquids reserves and gas reserves. The reserves are reported in accordance with the Petroleum Resources Management System, the joint reserves/resources definitions of the Society of Petroleum Engineers, the World Petroleum Congress and the American Association of Petroleum Geologists.
|Oil and LiquidsMMstb
Faroe is in the process of completing its own internal assessment of reserves and resources at 1 January 2016 and will be announcing the outcome in the coming weeks together with an operational update to include estimates of production levels and planned expenditure for 2016.
Graham Stewart, Chief Executive commented:
'I am very pleased to report this material increase in reserves over the year, generated principally from exploration success and which further underpins the significant value of the Company. This doubling of 2P reserves demonstrates clearly how our consistent strategy is delivering tangible results.
'We look forward to an exciting three well exploration drilling programme for 2016 in Norway, which is firming up on cost efficient terms. Faroe enters 2016 in a robust financial position, with strong production, a solid cash balance and largely undrawn credit facilities.'

Belper Marlins' swimmers came seventh in the high quality Deventio Short Course meet in Matlock at the weekend.
The championship is each race with a tough cut off time.
Excellent times were once again set by Phoebe Barden who, being the smallest and the youngest, set the bar high and put pressure on the others to succeed.
Personal bests were difficult to beat but nobody had told the swimmers who went out of their way to follow Phoebe's path.
Over the weekend the team came seventh overall. Considering they were up against the cream of the city teams this was a remarkable result and one that small town Marlin's can be rightly proud.

Question about Office Equipment & Supplies
I am very disappointed in this product. I am a realtor making lots of copies and pictures. I bought 2 Lexmarks, and had a colleague purchase 2 as well. So between the 2 of us, we purchased 4 all in ones spending over 3000.;00 and out of the 4, 1 of her broke and no longer works, and 1 of mine no longer functions correctly . Now my 2nd one is not functioning correctly and prints very poorly. I would not recommend this to anyone I thought it would be a better product for the money and better copier.

SOURCE: Faint red line across page when making color copies or printing in color from computer
Some possibilities are:
1) Dirt on the glass, dirt on the glass strip for the doc feeder, or dust on the mirrors. This would be the case if the line only showed when copying and not printing.
2) Toner dropped onto the charge sawtooth.
This may be possible if the line is intermittent and only showed up for 1 or 2 colors.
Open the front door and remove the waste toner box. To the left of each drum there is a green organ-stop type stem. Pull and reinsert each stem. You will hear a zipping noise. These are your charge scrubbers.
This may be not as likely if the line shows up in the same place on all 4 colors
3) Toner or dust on the lens
This may be possible if the line is intermittent and only showed up for 1 or 2 colors.
In the area where the waste toner box goes, look for a grey stick with a white cushion on the end. This is your lens scrubber. Look in the area under the charge scrubber on each drum cartridge for a gap. Insert the scrubber cushion side down into the gap and run it forward and back to clean the lens.
This may be not as likely if the line shows up in the same place on all 4 colors
4) Transfer belt blade not cleaning
This is best handled by a service tech since the mylar belt is very fragile. The squeegee blade that cleans the transfer belt between copies is missing a spot. The blade needs to be taken off the belt, cleaned and repowdered. Recently, Sharp made changes to the composition and thickness of the mylar in the transfer belts. Overpowdering the blade or belt when it was changed may cause improper cleaning of the belt creating lines across the copies. Often the condition clears up after a couple of days as the gap between the blade and belt is sealed.
This is most likely the cause as the line shows up in the same area for more than 1 color.
5) Transfer belt and/or blade is worn out
If the belt is worn the blade must be replaced but not vice versa.
6) Clogged waste augers in the drum cartridges.
Waste toner may cake up in the drum cartridge and knock loose on the drum.
It may be time for full maintenance on the machine.

What Am I Up To?
Two years ago I wrote and produced the feature film Chariot starring Anthony Montgomery, Brina Palencia, and Ian Sinclair. Here's what it's about:
Seven strangers wake aboard a passenger jet in mid-flight, with no idea how they got there - and no idea where they are headed. Cut off from the cockpit and with a dying smartphone as their sole source of information, they learn that the United States is under a devastating attack, and they might be the only survivors.

The trade deadline is still two months away, but the Cubs already have to be thinking about moving players on or before the July deadline thanks to a 20-30 record in a division with three 30 win teams. A sell-off is all but inevitable now, so it's time to take a look at what players could be moved at the July 31st deadline.
List of All Possible Suitors: Red Sox, Yankees, Orioles, Blue Jays, Tigers, Indians, Royals, White Sox, Rangers, Athletics, Angels, Braves, Nationals, Phillies, Cardinals, Reds, Pirates, Dodgers, Diamondbacks, Giants, Rockies
The list of suitors may seem to be odd (the Phillies and White Sox stand out), but all of these teams expect to win this year and are teams I can see making a push at the deadline to get a player. Things could obviously change, but all of these teams make sense as of right now.
All But Gone
Matt Garza 4.00 ERA, 12.00 K/9, 7.00 BB/9, 9 IP
Possible Suitors: Yankees, Orioles, Indians, Royals, Angels, Pirates, Giants, Rockies
The talk about Garza is whether or not the Cubs will re-sign him or trade him. To me, the plan is clear: he's going to be traded. The Cubs' future rotation will have Edwin Jackson (4 years/$52 million) and Jeff Samardzija. The Cubs are looking to extend Samardzija, but unlike Starlin Castro and Anthony Rizzo, Samardzija already has life-altering money in his bank account and decided to forgo a deal this season and prove his true value (good decision so far), so the Cubs will have to pay him more than those two team friendly deals. So let's assume Samardzija and Garza get the same sort of deal as Jackson when it comes to average annual value (AAV). That would mean paying three pitchers a total of $39 million and relying on Samardzija to be your ace. We aren't sure if he can get there, if he's a verified Game 1 starter.
If the Cubs believe in Samardzija and the leftover pitcher they will supposedly draft with the second pick of the draft (either Stanford's Mark Appel or Oklahoma's Jonathan Gray), then there's a possibility they keep Garza. But given his recent injury history and the financial hole he would put them in, it's tough to see them keeping Garza.
All of that being said, Garza should be able to give them plenty in return. He's the best pitcher on the market if he stays healthy and is a great teammate. Almost every team at the deadline will be in need of a starter, and the Cubs should be able to field multiple offers and work them into even better ones.
Scott Feldman 2.80 ERA, 7.24 K/9, 3.13 BB/9, 54.2 IP
Possible Suitors: Yankees, Orioles, Indians, Royals, Angels, Pirates, Giants, Rockies
Feldman is on a 1 year/$6 million deal, so the Cubs have every incentive to trade the starter on a hotstreak. Again, most teams need pitching at the deadline, and a guy like Feldman is an easy pickup to make. He shouldn't cost as much as a guy like Garza and should be easy enough for a team to re-sign. Feldman isn't a sub-3.00 ERA guy, but he can deliver innings and can transition to the bullpen in the postseason if need-be.
Kevin Gregg 0.00 ERA, 8.78 K/9, 3.38 BB/9, 6 SV
Possible Suitors: Red Sox, Orioles, Blue Jays, Tigers, Angels, Braves, Dodgers
Gregg has solidified the closer's role for the Cubs after Marmol nearly caused certain media members' heads to explode seemingly every time he pitched with a narrow lead. Gregg hasn't given up an earned run in 13.1 innings and has a sub-1.00 WHIP while striking out 13. Sure, there's some luck there, but proven closers are always a commodity at the deadline, and the Cubs have every incentive to trade him for something. Jose Valverde is doing ok so far, but if he starts to go out of whack they could be suitors. The Braves bullpen is thinning quickly and the Orioles aren't having the same success out of the bullpen as last season and may be comfortable trading for him as they had him the last two years.
Be Ready to Go
David DeJesus .277/.345/.471 5 HR, 3 SB
Possible Suitors: Royals, White Sox, Rangers, Phillies, Giants
DeJesus is having the perfect season for the Cubs, getting on base and hitting for power. There's no doubt the Cubs would love for this to continue and trade the outfielder for something big in return. DeJesus also has an option year on his contract (which would almost certainly be picked up), so the team that got him would be able to justify giving up a better prospect for him. The Royals have a Jeff Francouer-sized hole in right and are seemingly allergic to walking as a team. The White Sox aren't a patient team either, and could keep DeJesus in center. The Rangers outfield isn't what it was, but if they move Kinsler there things could look much better and not need a guy like DeJesus. The Phillies outfield is a disaster, and the Giants could upgrade there as well.
Nate Schierholtz .288/.320/.496 5 HR, 4 SB
Possible Suitors: Royals, White Sox, Rangers, Phillies, Giants
Schierholtz has been another good find by Jed and Theo, and has made himself a good platoon option for a team that doesn't quite need a starter. The Giants could take him back, or the Royals could platoon him with Francouer. The Sox, Rangers, and Phillies could easily put Schierholtz in their mix for an upgrade.
If the Money Gets Figured Out
Alfonso Soriano .278/.309/.422 5 HR, 6 SB
Possible Suitors: Royals, White Sox, Rangers, Phillies
Any team looking for right-handed power need look no further than Soriano. He's never been good at getting on base, but it's nearly impossible to find 30+ home run power at the deadline, especially from the right side. The Phillies might make the most sense, but they also might be out of it. The Giants are highly unlikely since Soriano vetoed a trade there last year. The Rangers would be interesting, but may pass due to the low OBP.
Carlos Marmol 4.26 ERA, 8.53 K/9, 6.63 BB/9, 2 SV
Possible Suitors: Red Sox, Orioles, Blue Jays, Tigers, Angels, Braves, Dodgers
Believe it or not, Marmol hasn't been that bad since moving out of the closer's role. It seems there is some sort of mental block for him when he pitches in the ninth, but he's been fine elsewhere. The Red Sox could use another arm in the pen, as could the Orioles and Tigers. The Jays may be unlikely, while the Braves probably wouldn't be too interested. The Dodgers could certainly eat the money, and it does seem like something GM Ned Colletti would do. And the Angels almost traded for him, so they are clearly interested.
If the Right Offer is on the Table
James Russell 0.95 ERA, 9.47 K/9, 1.89 BB/9, 19 IP
Possible Suitors: Red Sox, Orioles, Blue Jays, Tigers, Angels, Braves, Dodgers
Russell still has two arbitration years ahead of him, so the Cubs should be in no rush to trade the lefty out of the pen. Even so, the season Russell is putting together might be too good of an opportunity to sell high on a legitimate left handed reliever. The usual suspects apply, but other teams could easily join in to get a left hander they can deploy late in games.
Luis Valbuena .252/.362/.429 5 HR, 1 SB
Possible Suitors: Yankees, Indians, Pirates, Dodgers
It sounds weird to say, but Valbuena is having an excellent season. He's walking like crazy, making a decent amount of contact, and fielding his position well. Valbuena fills a hole at third for the Cubs and still has three arbitration years ahead of him, so the Cubs have no reason to trade him now, but if the right offer was on the table, it's hard to see the Cubs not selling high on the third baseman they picked up on waivers last season.
Extremely Unlikely but Possible
Darwin Barney .200/.284/.336 2 HR, 2 SB
Possible Suitors: Orioles, Blue Jays, Royals, Dodgers, Rockies
It's not every year that you can pick up a Gold Glove with a decent bat at the deadline, but this could be the year. I personally don't see this happening, but if they got a good enough offer, there's a chance the Cubs could unload Barney. That being said, it's hard to imagine trading away a Gold Glove second baseman that has improved his walk rate tremendously and is hitting for more power than ever. The batting average hasn't followed yet, but if it does, there's a chance Barney gets signed to a long term deal (think 3-5 years).

Charon Don Interview
BallerStatus.com: I understand that you and DJ Huggy hooked up after leaving your respective crews, talk about that decision and why it worked best for both of you.
Charon Don: well actually Huggy and i have been together for ever since we were in a crew . We started out as a high school crew which grew into a hiphop group named "Justuce" in the late 90's. The crew consisted of myself alongside two other emcees and Huggy as the deejay. We got our names out and built a reputation by rocking consistent block parties and talent shows.Once we began to gain recognition another crew formed with three other artist alongside myself and Huggy remained the deejay. While building with this second group and putting out local albums and rocking a lot more shows our hunger and passion for HipHop grew. As time passed and friends slowed up Huggy and I kept producing and performing thus forming ChaRon Don and DjHuggy.
BallerStatus.com: What intially drew you to DJ Huggy? What was it about his music made you really want to work with him?
Charon Don: Initially what drew me to Huggy was his love and hunger for the craft of deejaying and producing. I mean, i respect and look up to any artist who has a genuine and unique style and way of expressing themselves musically. His music was always creative and soulful while maintaining a basement grittyness (probably because he was literally recording and producing in his basement). Not to mention he killed the tables everytime he scratched on them and his sound was just Dope!
BallerStatus.com: Ok, so you guys are from Pittsburgh, but Philly is basically the hub for music coming out of Philadelphia is the place best known from the state. Tell me a little about the scene and coming up in Pittsburgh. How much of a challenge is it to get noticed out there?
Charon Don: Life is a challenge. As an artist getting your "just do" is hard no matter where your from, it's always going to be a struggle because there are so many artist and musicians in the world all tryna get seen and heard. As far as Pittsburgh goes those who hate "hate hard" and those who love "show much love", so we experienced both sides of the field. Coming up we had artist play their instruments right outside of the venue that we were playing at while we were on stage as a form of disrespect. while another day people bring up cameras and markers for us to take pics and sign autographs. So the things we have and still experience make us strong and focused, yet keep us humble and grateful, for both fields have grew and taught us wisdom. For those who care enough to pay attention gaining recognition was not hard at all, it's almost like the city was waiting and more observant thru time.
BallerStatus.com: According to your bio, you self-released your first release, Mental Combustion, in 2001... Im guessing it was an out-the-trunk type grind. What was your experience like getting that album out there like that?
Charon Don: Hard work, but well worth it. I'm a firm believer that once the seed is planted other farmers with seeds will help in any way they can to spread and share space and opportunities so that everyones harvest will be beneficial. I watched how we did everything that was in our will and belief to do for that album and many doors and opportunities opened from our actions and good intention. From our manager at that time getting the material pressed up, to booking a tour with a group with much more experience and noteriety and traveling across the eastcoast we developed more and more and built our chemistry day in and day out.It was crazy how the people outside and inside of the state were taken to the music and live performance and from there we knew the value of what we were creating.
BallerStatus.com: How much of your local buzz did a part of you signing with Good Hands to put out this new record?
Charon Don: I feel as though our local buzz got us noticed while our passion and gifts gained us respect and love. We had a strong buzz which helped to push Dj B-Bonics to link Goodhands Records with us while we were out in philadelphia on this same low budget tour inwhich i was speaking on. So the label got to first hear how we get down on record and then see us in person rock the mic, this is the benefit and opportunity one can get only if they put in the work and grind. We never set out to get placed in the situations we were in but we continued to do what we loved and were consistent and open enough to come face to face with whatever might arise.
BallerStatus.com: Since that first album, you guys have collaborated with some underground staples like Chief Kamachi and Reef, while Huggy got production credits with some big acts. What's it like to move from a local act to being able to work with artists I'm sure you were a fan of?
Charon Don: It's both a blessing and learning experience. I'm grateful to get up with legends like Kamachi and Reef because they are authentic and untouchable in terms of what they are bringing to the game.We are A-Alikes who share the love and hunger for our culture and music so i feel honored to get with family whether their distant relatives or in the same household.
BallerStatus.com: Before we talk about your new album, explain how you were describe your music... for the people who haven't heard of you yet.
Charon Don: It's the voice of reality put onto grade A production.It's the balance of the worlds inwhich we live in. It's the doctrine of the people you see and live with everyday... a musical journey, on the real it's whatever you want it to be if your open enough to accept it.
BallerStatus.com: Ok, your latest album is titled The Art Of Life. What's the meaning behind that title?
Charon Don: Life is forever moving, vibrant, changing and growing. Therefore Handsdown is here to break down the science of that existence we call "life". Plus the title just had a ring to it.
BallerStatus.com: What's different with this album, compared to your release in 2001?
Charon Don: uhhh. how bout the quality of production. the maturity of the content and topics. My voice no longer sounds like a lil boy going through puberty using complex words and battle oriented punchlines and phrases (lol). you name it. We grew alot and experienced much after that release though all of it was very necessary. It just trips me out that people to this day come up to me and ask for copies and give testimonies on how much they love that first record.
BallerStatus.com: Music is a hard sell these days, so why should someone buy your album if they haven't heard of you or any of the music from it yet?
Charon Don: It's not what the majority of artist are creating. It's our story given to the listener therefore it was created with a different purpose and objective. Give chances before you form judgements because you never know what might be a benefit to you once you do give it a chance.
BallerStatus.com: What's going on with you, as far as the immediate future?
Charon Don:Continuing to promote the project, more shows. Hopefully a tour or two (hint, hint), the launch of handsdownmusic.com website, the release of three exclusive HandsDown music videos/mixtape and Dvd boxset. And that's just the immediate future (lol). Big up to Ballertstatus for the love and much love and respect to all future artist and fans of the music. peace.

In response to Collin's previous comment, I'm going to take a step back to give a short theological history lesson. I'm also intending to make this blog conversational, so any time I assume too much, let me know so I can retrace my steps. I want this to be interactive, I already know what I think, what I'm interested is hearing your opinion.
Two months ago or so my theology group at church read/discussed Weaver's book Nonviolent Atonement. Weaver is a pacifist who attempts to rethink our understanding of the atonement in a nonviolent manner. He stresses the historical context that facilitated the different developments of the atonement theory. I'll keep that in mind while I outline the three main views of atonement in the church.
The early Church Fathers developed their understanding of Jesus' death in an environment when Christians were enemies of the state. Martyrdom and encounters with the evil inherent in the powers and principalities were common experiences for the early church. Their understanding of the atonement theory generally emphasized Jesus' confrontations with the evil in society including Satan. One specific theory, the ransom theory, envisioned a mythic world where God and Satan dueled for lordship over mankind. After the Fall, Satan had gained the upper hand. However, God hid Jesus' perfection from Satan, which led to Satan using Judas (look to the Luke/John narratives, I'll return to this at a later post) and the powers of Rome to put Jesus to death. God offered Jesus as a ransom (Mark 10) to Satan, but Satan did not know that Jesus could defeat death and thus liberate humanity from the clutches of Satan. Think of the Chronicles of Narnia, except realize that the monotheistic world of Narnia doesn't offer a perfect translation. Aslan/Jesus offers himself as a ransom to Witch/Satan for the rights of Edmund/humanity. The witch forgot the deeper magic (that Aslan would resurrect and thus break the spell of her death) and because of Aslan's resurrection Edmund is freed and winter is forever gone from Narnia (i.e. the Witch no longer has power over Narnia as it has been restored to Aslan).
In the 11th century, St Anselm published Why God became Man. He viewed the world from the feudal system where the serfs owed their Lord respect and honor. Now, imagine that the serfs/humanity had offended the honor of the Lord/God because of sin. Because the serfs/humanity are so much lower in the world than Lord/God they cannot properly repay him. Only a Lord could pay him. However, the serfs are the ones that owe him an apology because of the sin that has offended the Lord's honor. Therefore only someone who was both serf and Lord (man/God) could offer recompense to the Lord whose honor was offended. Thus Jesus' death on the cross rids humanity of the debt they owed to God, so that they could now be worthy of his salvation. Notice, Satan's gone. He is no longer the object of Jesus' death, but now the debt is owed to God. One reason Weaver thinks Anselm subtracted Satan from the equation was because of Christianity's sovereignty over Europe during the Middle Ages. When Christianity no longer combated the powers of the world but has now assumed that position, it didn't make much sense to conceive of the world as a battle of the forces of good against evil. Penal substitution, as advocated by the reformers like Luther, was a variant of Anselm's view that focused on Jesus willfully endured punishment and suffering in our place to satisfy the justice of God. Think of the court scene where Jesus stands in your place to receive the punishment that was rightfull yours…also God's the judge…and he hates you. I don't mean to offer a caricature, but this impassible, mechanistic God strikes me as unfaithful to the Biblical narrative.
In response to Anselm's doctrine of atonement, Abelard responded with his own view: the moral influence theory. Abelard thought that the idea that God required/demanded Jesus' death as a payment for the debt incurred by humanity violated the love of God. He thought that Jesus' death/ministry alerted mankind of God's love with the cross ultimately calling mankind back to God.
Now I'll start bitching.
Problems w/ Abelard's view
a) why is Jesus' martyrdom any different from any other saint?
b) why would Jesus' death call mankind to the love of God?
c) does the resurrection even matter?
Problems w/ Anselm's view:
a) God looks more like a tyrant than Abba as Jesus called him
b) Somewhat illogical, humanity's earned a debt, so only God can pay himself back, how satisfied can God really be?
c) Jesus' role is functional, his actual ministry's importance is reduced
d) Satan and evil are no longer important.
e) Why is violence the only appropriate way to repair God's honor (this is aimed more at penal substitution). Why would God have to repay violence with violence? But doesn't Jesus tell us to turn the other cheek?
f) It's rather un-Trinitarian to ascribe certain characteristics to one part of the Trinity (God the Father as violent/ungracious) while another part of the Trinity (Jesus as nonviolent and forgiving). Jesus ends up looking more like God than God looks like God
I'll return to Weaver's narrative Christus Victor in the my next post

Summer Salad
This summer salad is a great quick lunch fix on a warm summer day. Vibrantly colored vegetables drizzled with a fresh, flavorful home-made dressing makes for part of a satisfying, yet light lunch that will leave you feeling refreshed and energetic.
Ingredients (Serves 4 as part of a meal):
- Tomatoes (1 large) (cubed)
- Cucumber (2 Persian cucumbers or ½ an English cucumber) (cubed)
- Bell peppers (red, yellow – ½ each) (cubed and sauteed in high heat for a few minutes to increase digestibility)
- Spinach leaves (3 cups)
- Cabbage (1 cup) (shredded)
For the dressing:
- Extra Virgin Olive oil (1 tbsp – optional)
- Lemon juice (1 tbsp)
- Salt (to taste)
- Sugar (1 tsp)
- Black pepper powder (freshly ground) (1 tsp)
- Cut vegetables into desired shapes and sizes. You can get creative in choosing your vegetables for this salad. Choose seasonal vegetables. Other good vegetable choices for this salad are celery, broccoli (you can cook it slightly by immersing in hot water for a couple minutes), shredded carrots and sweet corn (lightly cooked). You may also add fruit like orange wedges, cubed apples, grapes, mango chunks to this salad. You may add tofu chunks (slightly browned or as is, depending on your preference), garbanzo or red kidney beans (soaked overnight and cooked – avoid canned if possible), pumpkin/sunflower seeds, nuts like slivered almonds, walnuts etc.
- Add all the dressing ingredients just before serving the salad and toss.
Sweet (sugar, oil, cucumber, cabbage) sour (tomatoes, lemon juice), salty (salt), pungent (pepper), bitter (spinach), astringent (spinach, cucumber).
Salads, being raw, are harder to digest than cooked foods. People with a strong digestive fire (e.g. pitta individuals) may find that salads suit their constitution, provided their digestive fire (agni) is working optimally. But even such people should choose salads in late spring and early summer and not during winter and fall type of weather.
Kaphas who don't have very strong digestive fires should eat salads sparingly and not make this their main meal. Go slow on the "heavy" ingredients like nuts, kidney beans, oils (don't eliminate them, just use them sparingly) for kapha individuals or during kapha season (spring).
Even vata individuals should not eat too much of salad. Salads are in general vata aggravating due to their cold, dry, light nature. When salads are not digested well, they may result in flatulence and bloating, which are by-products of incomplete digestion. This may ultimately result in unwanted bodily toxins. In general, legumes like kidney beans are considered harder to digest by vata body types, so use sparingly. Oils can be used generally by vata individuals and kind of offset the dry nature of salads to better suit the vata constitution.
For both kapha and vata individuals, it will be a good idea to make the salad "warm" by adding more spices, even lightly cooking some of the vegetables will help.
So it is important for one to take into consideration the constitution and season among other factors before choosing salad.
Effects on the Mind (Gunas – Qualities):
In general, Ayurveda considers cooked, lightly spiced foods as sattvic since these are easy to digest and positively affect the mind and body. Since salads are raw and not that easy to digest, they may be considered rajasic in nature due to the disturbances they may cause during digestion. If made with balanced spices, consumed in optimal quantity (not too much), lightly cooking some of the ingredients and keeping seasons in account, salads can also be sattvic in nature. The good thing is that being fresh and minimally processed (cooked), salads do have optimum prana/life force, which is considered as a sattvic quality. The rajasic quality of this salad can be increased if too much oil or salt or pepper is added. Stale ingredients will increase tamasic qualities of the salad.
Cold, dry (without the oil in the recipe), moist (with oil in recipe), rough, light (oil adds some heaviness to the salad, so you can play with the amount of oil to adjust this attribute).
Ingredients that tend to produce heating effect are oil, salt, pepper, lemon juice, tomatoes, bell peppers. Ingredients that tend to produce cooling effect are cucumbers, cabbage, sugar.
Depending on the treatment before serving this salad, it can be made "cool" or "warm" as mentioned earlier. Choice of vegetables, slightly cooking the vegetables and adding more spices can make the salad warm. Raw ingredients and reduced quantities of spices can make the salad cool.

After an amazing week in LA we're back in the studio and still dreaming of those warm, chilled out LA vibes. Woodlot was on location for Indie Beauty Expo – a trade show filled to the brim with green beauty aficionados. It was so inspiring to spend time with a group of knowledgeable beauty bloggers, passionate indie beauty founders and shoppers who appreciate a more intentional approach to beauty. We left feeling so grateful and can't wait to share some exciting new launches with you soon.
Of course, a week in LA wouldn't be complete without stops at a few of our favourite LA haunts. With all of the gorgeous shops, beach sunsets, gourmet coffee and fresh, local eats it was hard to narrow down our top 5 - so we got the inside scoop thanks to Vanessa Ho of The Clean Curator. Here's a summary of her must-dos:
Blue Star Donuts
Blueberry bourbon basil donut… do we really need to say anything else? Blue Star Donuts is your go-to for fresh, carefully crafted donuts in Venice. More than just a donut shop, Blue Star partners with local businesses to source fresh ingredients, selects coffee to pair perfectly with their mouth-watering treats and designs clean, beautiful shops so you can leave your worries at the door. A mindful moment – with donuts. #yesplease

The Butcher's Daughter
With gorgeous greenery oozing out of every corner, The Butcher's Daughter is possibly the most Instagrammable location on our list and with a menu packed with fresh juices and avocado toast, it's easy to understand why this is one of LA's most popular spots. Sit down for a Butcher Bowl and an elixir shot and let the good vibes roll.

Shuhari Matcha Café
For a little caffeine buzz without the midafternoon crash grab an almond matcha latte from Shuhari Café in Venice. This café uses fresh, pure green tea imported from Japan and you can taste the difference immediately. If you're feeling really cheeky reach for a towering cone of matcha soft serve – it's still healthy if it's matcha, right?

Woodlot Stockists
We're proud to have a number of amazing stockists located in the area. From carefully curated artisan shops to beauty studios and yoga studios - make sure you stop in to stock up on coconut wax candles, ethically sourced palo santo and refreshing everyday mists to incorporate into your daily rituals.
Santa Monica Pier
If you're in LA and don't Instagram the Santa Monica Pier – were you even really there? There's almost nothing more soothing than the sounds of waves crashing on the beach – and if you happen to catch a sunset you'll know why this is a must-see tourist destination. Even better? Avoid the crowds and rent a bike from any of the various oceanfront shops - spend the day people watching as you coast from Venice to Santa Monica.

LA – we love you, until next time.

Pork and Apples in Bulgogi sauce
This may seem like just a riff off of the last post. But there's a moral at the end of this story, I promise.
So a few weeks ago, when Hurricane Irene was allegedly rampaging through the Northeast, Boyfriend and I and another couple decided to escape the torrential rains, flooding, the Apocalypse, etc. for drier pastures inland to State College, PA. Which actually turned out to be a very entertaining getaway, even if it turned out the world did not end when the hurricane hit New Jersey. While our friends in New Jersey were huddled inside their homes, conserving bottled water and unperishables, we were exploring Penn State's campus, walking to bars and swimming in the hotel swimming pool. On the last night our "hurrication" we drove to a neighboring town for Korean food at a restaurant called, "Kimchi." Yes, we had kimchi at Kimchi, you know that just had to be said. Among the other dishes we had though, was a classic Korean dish, beef bulgogi, which I very much enjoyed. The next day, we left early in the morning to make our way home. The trip home started out smoothly but came to a standstill shortly after we crossed the state border into New Jersey where we sat in traffic. Apparently the storm had eroded away pieces of 287! We eventually made it home and to find that my apartment was fortunately left unscathed by Irene. Everything inside my apartment was as it was before; I didn't even come home to the flashing red digits on my alarm clock, a tell-tale sign of power outage. I did, however, come home with a craving for bulgogi. Luckily, since the power never went out, the contents of my fridge remained unspoiled, including a bottle of bulgogi sauce. (Which I most likely purchased the last time I went out for Korean food.)
So that is the inspiration for this week's post. After the impromptu teriyaki stir-fry from the last post, I wanted to improve upon it, because the meat turned out to be overcooked and tough. So this time, I marinated the pork in the bulgogi sauce in the morning and went off to work.
When I got home, I had to decide what to do with it. I had a green apple, which I had saved for the purpose of cooking it with pork. Boyfriend makes a pork and apple stir-fry that comes out quite nice, and Rachael Ray has her own pork and apple dish, so I knew that pork and apples go well together. So I chopped the apple up along with the other vegetables I had in the fridge.
But what to do with the meat, so it would not be so tough? This time, I cut the pork into bigger chunks. I then sprinkled about a teaspoon of corn starch and mixed it around the meat and let it sit while I chopped the vegetables.
It turned out this method worked out really well. The pork was not tough and overcooked, but plump and juicy. I will definitely stick to this method in the future. And the apples let out a little bit of sweetness to the pork and the sauce, to make a sort of East meets West all blended together into one dish.
So as promised, there is a moral to this story, in fact there is more than moral to this story:
1. Marinate your meat with cornstarch
2. When there is a hurricane, take a "hurrication" if you can, you'll have a blast.
Pork and Apple Stir-Fry in Bulgogi Sauce
1 pork tenderloin, chopped into 1-2 inch chunks
1 green apple, chopped
1 yellow squash, chopped
1 green pepper, chopped
½ onion, chopped
1 clove of garlic, minced
About 3 Tbs of bottled bulgogi sauce for marinade, and another 2 Tbs for adding at the end
1 tsp cornstarch
Toasted sesame seeds for garnish
Olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Pinch of cayenne pepper
Marinate pork in 3 Tbs of bulgogi sauce. (I did it for about 10 hours in the fridge since I did it just before I left for work. You can probably get away with 1-2 hours). Sprinkle with cornstarch and set aside while you chop the vegetables.
Heat some oil in a large skillet. Brown the meat first for about two minutes on each side. Set aside on a plate. Add some more oil to pan and heat it a little bit on medium heat. Cook the onions first. Then add pepper, apples, and squash and cook for about 3 minutes. Create a "well" for the garlic by pushing the vegetables to the rim of the pan. Add the garlic with a little more oil to center of the pan. Allow to cook for about 30 seconds before incorporating with the rest of the mixture. Season with salt and pepper. Cook the mixture for a few more minutes until you can easily pierce a fork into one of the chunks. (You may need to cover it to speed up the cooking). Add cooked pork, and stir in 2 Tbs of bulgogi sauce, heat for about another minute. Sprinkle with cayenne pepper. Garnish with some toasted sesame seeds.
Labels: Asian, pork, quick and easy

Vintage Turquoise Inlay Sterling Silver Bracelet Cuff Southwestern Style
Offering a wonderful vintage sterling silver cuff bracelet featuring inlaid turquoise and hand stampings. The turquoise has a great matrix including iron pyrite inclusions and a pretty bright blue color. Solid, well made hand wrought piece. It is a smaller size, please note the measurements below. Due to its straight borders, this bracelet stacks well with others.
MATERIAL Sterling silver
GEMSTONE Turquoise
SIZE Bracelet cuff measures 6 inches on a cone bracelet sizer. Measures inside 5.125 inches with a 0.875 inch gap. Can adjust slightly up or down. Will fit best on about a 5.5 to 5.75 inch wrist so this is a great smaller cuff which are generally harder to find. The cuff is 0.375 inches wide at the widest section. Weighs 14.1 grams.
MARKS Unmarked which is typical of pre 1970s Southwestern handmade jewelry. Tests as at least sterling silver with jeweler's acid and a test stone.
AGE Estate jewelry circa 1960s
SYMBOLISM or HISTORY Turquoise means Turkish stone because it came to Europe via the Turkish trade route. Turquoise is thought to be protection from the evil eye and prevents falls. It is a stone of purpose, bringing happiness to the wearer, can make friends of enemies and is symbolic of generosity and affection. Turquoise is one of the birthstones for December babies.
CONDITION Softened patina on the silver. Viewed under loupe magnification, the turquoise inlay displays various fissures and marks but this is part of the beauty of turquoise and not chips or cracks from damage. As this piece was acquired second hand, assume the turquoise has been stabilized which is a common practice due to it being a porous stone. The addition of a resin stabilizer hardens the turquoise and can enhance the color. The last photo is taken indoors in natural light. Excellent, vintage condition.
