Hey everyone,<\/p>\n

Been a while since I’ve done some new stuff – but, I’ve been quite busy in the trenches with multiple projects going on at once. <\/p>\n

\"Day9\"<\/center><\/p>\n

If some of you know me, you know I’m quite a Starcraft 2 player. While I’m not all that good (High Gold\/Low Platinum on US servers, and High Silver\/Low Gold on Korean servers), I still try my best to learn from each win or loss. The problem for me coming into SC2 was a complete lack of RTS experience. Now I, like the rest of you, probably played a ton of Red Alert, Starcraft 1, Warcraft 2, Warcraft 3, Red Alert 2, Total Annihilation, etc with “10 mins, no rush!” type games with your brothers\/friends. Stepping into SC2 I would just get obliterated since I had absolutely no idea what I was doing – frustrating to say the least. When I was searching around for video tutorials I stumbled upon some youtube archives of the Day[9] Daily. Not only have I learned a LOT from watching one Sean Plott, aka Day[9], about the game of Starcraft 2, but, he’s turned me on to some fantastic music that I didn’t know about before (shocking, I know). One of those groups is Blue Sky Black Death. After hearing “Swords From Driftwood”<\/a> on his show…I HAD to hear more. Needless to say I’ve become a HUGE fan of theirs after not even knowing about them even just a few months ago. I’ve done a few single artist mixes before – all archived here: DJ Shadow, 2 Teebee mixes, Hybrid, and even 2 All Movin Shadow mixes when I heard the label was disolving. This is the newest “All Artist” mix – all Blue Sky Black Death. I made this mix as my way to say thank you to Day[9] for four things:<\/p>\n

Exposing me to so much amazing new music (Ludique, BSBD, Purity Ring, etc)
\nTeaching me an absurd amount about the game of Starcraft 2
\nMaking me<\/strong> a better gamer
\nPutting so much effort into the community – his passion and energy are tireless<\/p>\n

For all of this, I have to thank him. I’ve made huge strides in my play due to his dailies alone, and I’ve also begun to think about games in a different way – understanding the WHY of what we do in addition to the how and what of what we do.<\/p>\n

Sean\/Day[9] – Thank you, sincerely, for everything that you do!<\/p>\n

If YOU<\/strong> would like to check out the Day[9] Daily – please go to Day9.tv<\/a>. He broadcasts every Sunday – Thursday night from 7-8pm PST.<\/p>\n
