Here’s a useful feature with Norsonic sound analysers when doing building acoustic measurements When you are measuring low frequencies, the sound field in the room can vary a LOT I just realised that learning the drums is the most focused thing I have ever done in my life I finally found a use for the Heel and Toe technique! Future Breed Machine Four weeks of daily Heel and Toe drum practice 15 min/day Two weeks of daily heel and toe drumming practice Finally, I got some mileage on my dapper outerwear again!

How long does it take to form a habit? Sauna + Metal + Beer = Fantastic skin treatment Humans need contrast, not comfort Practice a song and practice technique are two different things - And you need both Bleed sit rep: Day 693 THIS is how to properly sell stuff online. 🎅💖🤣🤣 I almost failed drum practice tonight, but an 8 year daily habit is VERY difficult to skip I have published at least 1 video per day for more than two years.
