Anyone have earplugs they can recommend for live shows? I think these are the ones I use? https://smile.amazon.com/Macks-Ultra-Soft-Foam-Earplugs/dp/B0051U7W32/

Do you find a connecting cord to actually be useful or a bit of a nuissance?

I Use https://us.loopearplugs.com/ For shows the issue with standard non acoustic earplugs is that the show sounds like you're listening to it under a pile of laundry. The loops sound good while keeping the volume decent.

Do you have the Experience or Quiet? It seems strange the Quiet at -27dB would be $10 cheaper than the Experience at -18dB.

The Quiet are those non acoustic earplugs I was talking about before. I have the experiences and really like them. The reason the acoustic earplugs have less DB reduction is that they have small holes to let some sound in.

Got it. Just ordered the Experience, going to a Solarstone show on Friday so we'll see how they do.

edit: They arrived about 4 hours after I ordered them from Amazon. :lol: Testing them against the foam earbuds by listening to livesets at 100% volume on my HD650's, they definitely sound less muffled. I was worried -18dB might not be enough, but it might turn out to be a good compromise: a bit more attenuation would be nice, but my foam earplugs did make it difficult to hear people. We'll see how they perform at club volume on Friday.

Ear Peace is another good option for tuned earplugs. They offer similar ranges of dB reduction, sound fine, and come in a slick metal keychain holder, which has a compartment for a spare plug (which is also a great place to hide a small bag of pills or powder).

The only complaint I have about them is that the plastic ends stick a little bit out of your ears; if you plan to use them for DJing they can get in the way of certain headphones whose drivers are very close to your ears.

Of course, my big problem is that I never wear them while DJing and often forget to put them in attending shows.

This lineup is so good but if they're starting at 5pm, I wonder how late they're gonna play since last call for alcohol is 2am.

The cheapest I can book the trip is $500 for flight (Spirit), hotel (EconoLodge), and tickets which seems... very reasonable?

Can't believe Nurture is a year old already! It's crazy how it went from an album I was unsure if I was really into to one of my favorite albums of the past several years.

Mention you're a goon before paying and I'll cut the shipping price down, or free if your $pending a lot. No international it's a huge pain sorry. If for sale posts aren't allowed than sixer me and i'll edit apologies.

Just got tickets to see Krewella at the Ogden Theater next week for my birthday. I figured with the current hellscape in the US the least I could do is support some women DJ's. Besides them, Rezz and Allyson Wonderland who are some other good women DJs?

If you haven't heard Krewellas Ultra set from this year its quite good, a nice mix of DNB, Trap, Big Room and some Hardstyle. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rPV3BWCpRNM

The techno scene has big names like Charlotte de Witte, Nina Kraviz, and Nicole Moudaber, plus some more up and comers like Amelie Lens, Anna, and Anfisa Letyago.

I'm seeing Nora En Pure for the first time tonight!

Hannah Wants is so loving good, had the pleasure of catching her as my last EDM set before moving down south, every mix is a straight banger. Very upbeat 4 on da floor house vibes that routinely drop into spooky tech house and sad gorl space beatz

I want to like Flume, but IIRC he is
- a 'future bass' producer (I'm so tired of those massively sidechained supersaw chords)
- Australian (I'm told we're supposed to not like these guys)
- ate a girl's rear end onstage (this is the kind of fame I envy)
