I’ve decided I’ll probably keep this account after all

At least for now. I think Tumblr will eventually fall under and I’ll just wait until then.

That said, I’ll barely be active on here which really doesn’t change much.

I will be deleting this Tumblr account.

If you want to follow me on social media I have two places:

Twitter - @elkbit

Instagram - @elkbit

Those are my main Twitter and Instagram handles. I’ll delete the account by the end of the week. Thanks for actually sticking around even though I rarely did the past year or so!

On playstyles

the-japari:

There are many ways to operate seven keys and a turntable using ten fingers. Likewise, in IIDX there are many finger positions, commonly called playstyles. Even when watching high level players there is a variety of playstyles, some of them even named after the players.

Review of well-known playstyles

Symmetrical

Place four fingers from each hand on the keys in a symmetric manner, as in the picture above. Key 4 is shared between the two index fingers. Depending on player preference either the ring finger or the pinky may be used to hit keys 1 and 7.

1048 (Toshiya) style

1048 style is named after the player 1048 (Toshiya) who pioneered this hand position. Notice the particular position of the scratch-side hand. The scratch-side hand is very close to the turntable and this playstyle is also used for wrist scratching.

It will take time to get used to the scratch side hand position, but this is a playstyle worth mastering.

“Welcome to the bara library”

My boyfriend and I finally transformed one of our rooms in the house into a “bara library”
(Well, more of a manga/anime library, but our bara collection takes the forefront).

(Also, I’m aware the calendar is a 2016 one)

Why do I do this to myself every time?
I know the way it ends before it’s even begun
I am the only one at the finish line

I could’ve sworn I saw fireworks
From your house last night
