did i achieve the impossible? this album really means a lot to me on so many levels and i cant tell you how much i love seeing other people enjoy it. thanks for playing yall ❤

[@bonez565]

This album is so good. I didn't think anything could top Magenta but this is such a cohesive group of fantastic Mashups.

[@StarlieW]

Honestly this mashup made me remember so many songs I forgot because they were popular in my childhood, now I feel kinda obligated to put them on a playlist and I thank you for making me do that

In the span of 5 days, you've brought us youtube watchers on a journey through time. First we had a grim reminder of the status of comedy in 2017 and now we have a nostalgic reminder of what we lost from the early 2000s. This is too much for my heart man.

[@llmkursk8254]

Bruh, every Jazzwave release means double hype. First the album itself Then the reaction of Acai

God david Bowie's under pressure just brings me back dude. I was so happy when i heard his voice.

[@noodlenoms1569]

ive been learning japanese and im 98% sure that the description for "the power of drifting" says: "I-Impossible!! This speed... this is 「POWER OF LOVE」!!" at least thats what i read

[@Aliamner]

That I just Wanna Rule The World song absolutely sent me to the stratosphere

[@aaronkerper4004]

Its crazy how every single project jazz puts out is like "this is what it's all been leading up to" and then ANOTHER project comes out that's even better

[@fetamean]

For being a quote-unquote "meme" mashup album, the theme here was truly well done. I can interpret it in several symbolic ways but the act of calling it Squaring the Circle is already the best analogy for what's happening here.

[@FabbrizioPlays]

Yeah I feel like the community has been hard at work pushing mashups out of "ways to troll your friends and get banned from the aux cable" and into "unironic DJing and remixing that also has permission to be funny"

[@lazypaladin]

90% of these mash-ups: A body of beauty, complexity and synergy. That other 10%: *SLAP!* *_Wake up, bch! This is Jazzwave!_*

[@TheMariostarr]

Hearing LIttle Wonders vocals alongside Everybody Wants to Rule the World over the backing track to Iris made me feel things I never have before I absolutely adore all 3 songs, so hearing them at once was absolutely INSANE, the first time I think any mashup made me a touch bit emotional.

[@bsti112590]

After finishing the listen...HOLY SHIT. The production, mixing, and of course song/sample choice are all fantastic. Well done, Jazzwave, and thank you Acai for continuing to show us these awesome creations.

Kind of funny how grief hits you at like, the stupidest times, lmao. Not to overshare, but I lost someone in my family a few days ago and the crying didn't really happen-I've all but been waiting for it to process and kind of hit me, which didn't happen until I watched this goddamn video, lol. I Just Want to Rule the World and Clear Me Up played and it just kinda happened. So thanks Alec and thanks Jazz for helping me through that! Kind of funny how it's always music, though. Last time I cried over someone passing it was to Fallout 76's version of Take Me Home, Country Roads (a song I still can't listen to l o l), which is kind of stupid too. Sorry to overshare but I thought I should thank you because I was afraid this time the grief wouldn't come. It's good to know I'm not completely numb lol

[@ksad96]

I've been there, though not with losing a family member. My condolences, and I'm glad to hear that you are moving forward even though I don't know you. You'll be able to make it through this, just allow yourself to have the things you need and feel the things you gotta feel.

[@TCMusicMashups]

The Mashpit strikes yet again with another Jazzwave W.

[@fugsystem9720]

from what i got out of the songs, this album is like a cosmic horror story done through catchy as heck and heartwrenching mashups and thats a really impressive thing to pull off in music

[@ElliWoelfin]

Jazz mentioned in chat that it's about failing to live up to expectations

[@fugsystem9720]

@@ElliWoelfin yknow that is a much more reasonable and understandable story to tell but i really like the cosmic horror story angle still

RE! SPECT!

[@thatoneguy9582]

tasty planet type beat

[@nonexistence00]

well, considering that the area of a circle is _πr^2_ , and the area of a square is _s^2_ , we can deduce this: these equations must be equal (we are looking at the same area, after all): _πr^2 = s^2_ we can then factor out the exponent of 2 on one side by taking the root of the other side of the equation: _sqrt(πr^2) = s_ since _sqrt(x * y^2) = y * sqrt(x)_ , we can factor out the _r^2_ : _r * sqrt(π) = s_ a little bit of algebraic manipulation (moving stuff around) and we get this: _s / sqrt(π) = r_ or: _s / r = sqrt(π)_ or maybe even: _(s / r) ^ 2 = π_ thus, we can conclude that if a square and circle have the same area, and considering that the radius of the circle and length of the square's side are measured in the same unit, the ratio of the side length to the radius ( _s / r_ ) is equal to the square root of pi ( _π_ ) or roughly _1.77245385_ . this should help in squaring the circle to a certain degree. what a waste of time :)

[@thatoneguy9582]

i think the whole thing about squaring the circle was that they wanted to literally construct the square, i.e. with a straight edge and compass and because of pi being transcdental (read: fucking weird) there’s no way to construct a length of pi, let alone square root pi, using a straight edge and compass, thus making the original problem impossible -i’m a math nerd let me have this one-

[@nonexistence00]

@@thatoneguy9582 i mean, you could always approximate to 3.14 if youre lazy, or to 15 d.p. if youre actually trying

[@samwalko]

​@@nonexistence00 The thing with compass-and-straightedge problems is that it's really easy to cut a line segment in half, easy enough to cut it in thirds, maybe even in fifths or other reciprocals of integers (I don't really remember). As a result, you can cut a line segment into fourths, sixths, twelfths, eighteenths, etc. in a few steps. So if you need 43/108 of a line segment, for instance, that's actually doable. I think you can actually get any rational number this way. But pi, being irrational, cannot be constructed this way.

[@nonexistence00]

@@samwalko theres always 22/7 or some other rational approximation i guess

[@thatoneguy9582]

Album is a banger for sure, but I wanna point out the one thing Acai said that a lot of parents don't even think about. Kids don't know shit, and babies even more. I see a lot of parents getting mad about their kids doing one thing and another, but I think they forget that they did the same shit when they were a kid and when they were a kid they were just as confused and shit as their kid is in that moment. How your kids grow up is all down to how you help them grow, cause we never evolved to just know shit.
