Streamer is in fact the studio project lovechild of Shepherd. After a successful string of Streamer 12" single releases:
"Blown-Up" (dust 2 dust records UK.)
"Feeling Good" remixes (Under One Sun, UK)
"Sound" (Quaint Records)
"Blissed" e.p (KidNap records, NL)
Streamers first full length CD Blissed was released on KidNap records, Amsterdam in September 2001.
Blissed is music for funky picnics. For gentle euphoria. For raised eyebrows and wry smiles.
This 72 minute 16 track CD takes the listener through a full range of uplifted moods and leaves them feeling good. Enchanted, sometimes twisted, but always playful. It can contain elements of funking latin bigbeats, big band horns, blown up flutes, chilled out gambian harps, sequencers and steel guitars. Sometimes all in one song.
Blissed also features the vocal talents of live art group Private Thoughts in Public Places. The blissful beats and enchanted musical explorations provide an exellent basis for the conceptual wordscapes and thirty second sitcoms of P.T.P.P.
A perfect combination of good music, irony, style and theatrics.
The Blissed cd (now SOLD OUT) has also been very well received in the international licensing world, with tracks taken for such compilations as "2 many DJS" (Soulwax records, B), "DubPlates From The Lamp" (Pork records, UK), "God Bless The chilled" mixed by MixmasterMorris (Return to the Source, UK), and the half a million selling "Hotel Costes 5" mixed by Stephane Pompougnac (Pscent records, F).
Licences in production include:
New Testament of Funk 5 (Unique Records, D)
Nu Soul (Zomba, D)
Avern affairs (Zomba, D)
Elite Attitude (Pscent, F)
March 2003 the long awaited new Streamer 12" EP "Call of the wild" was released. It features the tracks "Call of the wild", "Under a spell" and "Head over Heels". This new chapter allows Streamer to use the influence of his alter ego DJ Alec Smart. Those many hours spent spinning party music to audiences in Holland, Germany and Italy have their effect.
The new Streamer Sound, although just as playful and varied, now takes on a party feel (think: electro, afro, bigfunk, discobreaks).

Feeling Good
Streamer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The new day have just begun
Through the open window
Warm and gentle wind
Invites you to take a walk
You're walking down the sunny street
Humming moving to the beat
From your headphones
Passing block by block
Feeling good with no reason
Free your soul from the prison
Leave behind useless ado
Sun is shining so bright
Everything is alright
The whole world is smiling to you
Lay down beneath the shady tree
Evoke the pleasant memories...
In the shape of the clouds
What can you see?
Bunny or fairy elf?
Remember your childhood dream
Perfect, shiny and agleam
Start to do all those things
You wanted to do
And you'll find yourself...
Feeling good with no reason
Free your soul from the prison
Leave behind useless ado
Sun is shining so bright
Everything is alright
The whole world is smiling to you
Feeling good with no reason
Free your soul from the prison
Leave behind useless ado
Sun is shining so bright
Everything is alright
The whole world is smiling to you
Feeling good with no reason
Free your soul from the prison
Leave behind useless ado
Sun is shining so bright
Everything is alright
The whole world is smiling to you

I can't be the only person who doesn't enjoy watching live streams but once they're uploaded somewhere, it becomes enjoyable watching it

Ikr? I would want to be there live to watch tournament matches, but if I miss it and the vod is there waiting for me, I couldn't care less about it.
kevin ross
@Nudibranch With me, when someone goes live and I can catch the stream, I might join for 10 minutes but I usually leave saying I'm gonna watch it later
R8Spike
it depends on the thing. if its chill then no, but if its a tournament then yes

I really cannot watch a streamer talking for many hours in a row. I feel like i would ruin my evening. But i enjoy these short videos focussing a certain topic. I personally need a limited frame when i watch entertainment content. That's just how it is.

I think there's a few things: live videos often get cut down and condensed into the more important stuff later, you can fast forward, rewind, or even pause to make sure you don't miss something or can skip the parts you don't care about (if any), and also, one of the most important parts for me: you can decide when to watch it, not conform to a specific schedule, or come in halfway to something and miss potential important info to understand what's going on

It's something I have always thought about - about how even accessing self help through twitch can be addictive. It's important for people watching Dr K's streams not to be addicted, to use it as a resource and to live a life fully outside twitch and online spheres, as well as being online sometimes. I think it's actually easy to consume a lot of self help media online and to not do anything about it. So even though Dr K's resources are helpful and accessed through twitch and youtube, it's important for people to log off as much as they can, take some of the lessons to heart and try implement them in the real world using real world feedback. Even very helpful material can be addictive and sort of, unhelpful, in the long run if we implement them in the wrong way. So even though Dr K and many other people on twitch do many helpful things, it's important for us to log off and switch off from all this stuff and live a life in the real world, and that way all this material can help us build a life we want.

Most self help videos on the internet have this self-comforting property that's addictive but not very helpful. I went through a phase of addiction to hearing the calm narration of The School of Life without actually learning anything. And I thought it was helping me in someway XD
