seems like a nice guy but his humor is kind of inescapably-self-concious, try-to-hard cringy

Don't bring him down to those levels; I don't know if he'd want to be one but he's a pre good singer

Both of these bands are popular outside of 4chan. Imagine being so retarded you went to a Death Grips or Swans show with thousands of people and thought everyone there was from /mu/.

That's pretty popular, just because a band isn't pulling pop-star numbers doesn't make them obscure. Anyone with a knowledge of the music festival scene has hard of those bands.

I think his reviews are pretty good. He seems like a nice dude and it's insanely refreshing to see someone actually try and put thought into what they're making.

I hope to fucking god he doesn't become our Anthony Fantano.

>>6804826
Yeah, same. My advice is to get a pretty good microphone, like a blue yeti sort of deal and a not grainy as fuck webcam. Film in natural sunlight if you can, maybe around 12, and learn to enunciate your shit. Use jump cuts sparingly and try and keep yourself in the center.

I'm not doing a face cam , I don't see why you need to see a book reviews face (why use a visual medium when talking about non-visual)
I want to try a NPR with blue humor

That sounds great, I'd love to hear that.

Try experimenting from room to room to see what gives you the best sound. When I traveled around I got a lot of mileage out of practicing in bathrooms, but that was with musical stuff.

Vocal warm-ups and tongue twisters never hurt. The first couple of times you're probably gonna suck, don't be discouraged. That's perfectly normal and kind of just what you have to do to get good at stuff.

Well you better make sure you get a good mic and don't sound like a sperg (like Confused Matthew or MovieBob).

then when he says that his dad was better than food; in all of his videos until now he's used present tense, just hits that much harder

and his facial expression when he says, "and now he's gone" while playing on his deceased dad's guitar

I'm thinking of creating a /lit/ channel where I provide literary criticism to ero-doujins since they're so often vast founts of the human imagination.

I was going to start with Pukey and Nipply.
