What is it like to be a sniper?
As a 12-year SEAL and Sniper, I spent the better part of my adult life learning, using, refining and living this skill, yet I find it difficult to put into words "what is it like to be a sniper?". In the Teams, older snipers and team leaders look for more "solitary and quiet" individuals that have focus and a "quiet" about them. Some individuals have a "comfortable knack" and a natural feel for navigating any environment unseen -the training takes this "knack" to a whole new level. An additional skill that is sought-out, honed and refined is something we call "Bubble Compartmentalization" -or the ability to block everything else out for long periods of time, except specific visual and observation skills -basically the ability to sit still, observe and calculate without losing your mind.

Nothing like I would have imagined it to be. It’s an impressive feat, but like all military work, it’s clearly physically and mentally challenging. Not sure that I could do it.

This Is What Creating Dubstep Looks Like | Hypebeast
The winning entry for the Ableton Contest hosted by DJ Tech Tools finds Riccardo Betti treating the Novation Launchpad like his own personal playground. Played completely live, the result is a dubstep creation that features several chopped and stretched samples that produced an entry that blew the rest of the competition away. Whether you’re a fan of the genre of music or not, there’s no denying that Betti has skills.
