October 17, 2026 by Zaki (Zack) Qayoumi in blog, music, music therapy, reading

The news is not good, I thought I was going to get a new vehicle soon, but it did not materialize. Either #GermanEngineering or #JDM. Please understand that once I make a selection, I'm stuck with that vehicle for the next 5-10 years more than likely. That means, if you are a car dealership looking to sponsor me and make a donation because I am Zaki Qayoumi, the DJ of JETLAG RADIO, as people vote on the DJ Mag #Top100DJs, get in touch with me. Download my EPK (Electronic Press Kit) and let's have a discussion. Due to high insurance costs, and the fact that I am on the poverty line, and that I am waiting for disability to be approved which was denied the last 4 times, including the last time using a lawyer’s help. Currently recently filed an appeal which may take another 6-8 months for a decision. The vehicle must be between $20K-$39K full-size sedan. I need this new car/vehicle to move forward for ZACK TECHNOLOGY LLC, my Startup, my Company. Your help is more than appreciated, and I'd like to receive this by Thanksgiving/Black Friday. Given that Barnes & Noble Elk Grove, CA has poor cell phone reception and zero parking, I cannot work on the computer from there. I will continue to visit B&N Roseville & B&N Folsom instead. Meanwhile, I will continue to work from Temple Coffee. Still waiting for Blue Bottle Coffee to open a real location in Sacramento, CA. PS. I plan on returning to Barnes & Noble, Elk Grove within weeks, assuming my phone works there, and that parking is ideal, unlike before. Also, add me back on Instagram (username: IAMZAKI). I have a lot of reading to do, unfortunately, I do not have an allowance to purchase books and magazines currently.

Les nouvelles ne sont pas bonnes : je pensais obtenir un nouveau véhicule prochainement, mais cela ne s'est pas concrétisé. J'envisage soit une voiture de conception allemande (#GermanEngineering), soit un modèle japonais (#JDM). Sachez qu'une fois mon choix arrêté, je devrai probablement conserver ce véhicule pendant les 5 à 10 prochaines années. Par conséquent, si vous représentez une concession automobile et que vous souhaitez me sponsoriser ou faire un don — en tant que Zaki Qayoumi, DJ de JETLAG RADIO et candidat au classement #Top100DJs de DJ Mag — n'hésitez pas à me contacter. Téléchargez mon dossier de presse électronique (EPK) et discutons-en. En raison du coût élevé des assurances, de ma situation financière précaire — je vis au seuil de pauvreté — et de mes démarches pour obtenir une reconnaissance d'invalidité (refusée à quatre reprises, malgré l'assistance d'un avocat), je me retrouve dans une impasse. Un recours a récemment été déposé ; la décision pourrait prendre encore 6 à 8 mois. Je recherche une berline spacieuse, d'une valeur comprise entre 20 000 et 39 000 dollars. Ce véhicule est indispensable au développement de ma startup, ZACK TECHNOLOGY LLC. Votre aide serait infiniment précieuse ; idéalement, j'aimerais pouvoir disposer de ce véhicule d'ici Thanksgiving ou le Black Friday. Par ailleurs, comme la réception mobile est médiocre et le stationnement inexistant chez Barnes & Noble à Elk Grove (Californie), je ne peux pas y travailler sur mon ordinateur. Je privilégierai désormais les établissements Barnes & Noble de Roseville et Folsom. En attendant, je continue de travailler depuis Temple Coffee. J'espère toujours l'ouverture d'un véritable café Blue Bottle à Sacramento. P.-S. Je prévois de retourner chez Barnes & Noble à Elk Grove d'ici quelques semaines, en espérant que la couverture réseau et les conditions de stationnement se soient améliorées. N'oubliez pas non plus de me rajouter sur Instagram (nom d'utilisateur : IAMZAKI). J'ai beaucoup de lectures à prévoir, mais je n'ai malheureusement pas les moyens, pour l'instant, d'acheter des livres ou des magazines.

TGIF! The World of Videogames

Friday (Vendredi) October (Octobre) 16, 2026 · ZACK TECHNOLOGY LLC

What's up, everybody!

It's Friday (Vendredi) October (Octobre) 16, 2026. TGIF! Today we celebrate the world of videogames. I hope you did all your homework for Monday, so we can enjoy some livestreams!

🎮 What's on my livestream list? I'm not sure what I will livestream yet. I'm eager to resume #MGSIV, because it's very important as a metaphor for everything that is going on in the world. But I also want to play The Crew Motorfest, even though I can't afford the Year 4 DLC yet. It's okay, there are still a lot of playlists in this racing game for me to do.

📦 MGS IV 🏁 The Crew Motorfest 👻 Death Stranding 2 🗡️ Hell Is Us 🚗 JDM: The Game 🏎️ Gran Turismo 7

Stay tuned to youtube.com/@iamzaki! #RazerCreator

🎃 It's Halloween month! That means a lot of Death Stranding 2: On the Beach livestreams, and I need to livestream Hell Is Us.

I really want to livestream the Resident Evil series, but the gore makes that impossible where I currently live. It's rated "M" for Mature (17+), so I'll have to wait until I move into an apartment with some privacy.

🏎️ JDM & Gran Turismo: Hopefully I can do at least one more new JDM: The Game livestream on PS5 as well. Last, there's a brand-new Gran Turismo 7 patch with a new intro, and I still need to do the DLC, even though there aren't any PS5 trophies for it.

Le Pouvoir de la Musicothérapie : Pourquoi le Rap est une Médecine (Édition du Jeudi)

Naza ft. Jul — Pas d'problèmes (clip) — Naza ft. Jul — « Pas d'problèmes »

Bonjour à tous les auditeurs et lecteurs d'OMEGA RADIO ! Pour notre chronique de ce jeudi, traditionnellement axée sur la médecine et le bien-être, nous allons aborder une forme de guérison particulièrement puissante : la musicothérapie.

Et quel meilleur ambassadeur pour cette thérapie sonore que le rappeur français Naza ? Avec ses influences afro-trap et ses sonorités vibrantes de rumba congolaise, la musique de Naza est un véritable antidépresseur naturel. Contrairement aux idées reçues, le rap n'est pas qu'une musique de revendication ; il peut être une formidable source de réconfort et de joie.

Que vous soyez adolescent, jeune adulte ou même plus âgé, si vous aimez la culture hip-hop, écouter le rap de Naza est une excellente façon de prendre soin de votre moral. Des morceaux festifs comme « Joli bébé » ou « Loin de moi » stimulent instantanément la production d'endorphines, l'hormone du bonheur. C'est une musique pensée pour rassembler, pour faire danser et pour soulager l'esprit des tracas quotidiens par la fête. L'écouter permet de faire baisser le taux de cortisol, réduisant ainsi l'anxiété pour laisser place à une énergie positive contagieuse.

Je prescris tout particulièrement cette « thérapie » à tous les étudiants de France. Entre la pression des examens, les longues heures de révision et le stress constant des études, vous avez besoin d'une échappatoire saine. C'est pourquoi je vous invite vivement à venir écouter Naza sur mon podcast DJ, OMEGA RADIO. En mixant ses meilleurs morceaux, nous créons ensemble l'atmosphère parfaite pour relâcher la pression, recharger vos batteries mentales et retrouver la motivation nécessaire pour affronter la semaine. Naza sur OMEGA RADIO, c'est l'ordonnance musicale parfaite pour votre santé mentale !

Enfin, pour que le traitement soit complet, il est important de soutenir physiquement cette médecine de l'âme. Je vous encourage tous à vous rendre à la FNAC pour acheter ses albums en format physique. Que ce soit son classique Incroyable, le fameux Gros bébé ou le récent Nazaland, tenir l'album entre vos mains, lire les livrets et s'imprégner de son univers coloré prolonge cette expérience thérapeutique. Alors n'hésitez plus : branchez-vous sur OMEGA RADIO, passez à la FNAC, et laissez la musique de Naza prendre soin de vous !

🎮 Videogame Therapy

Videogame Therapy: Why Escapism Is Good Medicine (Thursday Edition)

007 First Light — PlayStation State of Play key art — 007 First Light on PlayStation 5

Welcome back to the Thursday edition of the blog, where we focus on medicine, mental health, and the unexpected ways we heal. Today, I want to talk about a very modern form of self-care: "videogame therapy."

Sometimes, the best medicine for a cluttered, stressful mind is to step entirely into someone else's shoes. This past week, I found my therapeutic escape by finally finishing 007 First Light (James Bond) on the PlayStation 5. Getting lost in a wonderfully crafted storyline and diving into high-stakes espionage action was exactly the mental reset I needed. There is something deeply cathartic about a well-executed plot that pulls your focus away from daily anxieties and redirects it into a thrilling, cinematic world.

What amplified this "therapy" was the joy of sharing it. Booting up the stream, speaking into my Razer gear, and experiencing the game's twists and turns live with all of you added a fantastic layer of social connection. Gaming doesn't have to be solitary to be healing. Sharing the tension of a stealth mission, celebrating those hard-earned PSN trophies as they popped on screen, and reacting to the explosive action together turned a solo playthrough into a shared, uplifting event.

The satisfaction of completing a great narrative provides a genuine dopamine boost. Seeing the classic "James Bond will return" at the end of the credits (don't worry, no spoilers here!) left me with that perfect post-game glow. Knowing that the brilliant minds at IO Interactive (IOI) are planning a sequel gives us all something to look forward to — and anticipation is a highly underrated part of mental well-being.

The treatment isn't quite over, either. I recently played through one of the free DLC missions released by the studio, and it was fantastic. I'm already looking forward to diving back in and tackling all the other side missions whenever I find the time. Until then, remember that taking a few hours to save the world digitally might just be the perfect way to save your own peace of mind. #RazerCreator

💌 A note from Zack: Unfortunately, I don't have the funds, since I haven't had a salary in 8 years. That means I couldn't spend the afternoon at the boba tea spot working on my laptop for ZACK TECHNOLOGY LLC, or have dinner at the ramen shop this evening. I'm really disappointed, because I could have met a great woman, possibly a Japanese single woman over 21.

As always, ladies, if you are "Single and ready to Mingle," I am on the dating app Boo, username: IAMZAKI. 😉

TGIF! The World of Videogames

Friday (Vendredi) October (Octobre) 9, 2026 · ZACK TECHNOLOGY LLC

🙏 ✌️ ☮️ 🇵🇸 🇮🇱 🇺🇳

The world hopes for a ceasefire that is truly respected, and for peace.

The world hopes for a #GazaCeasefire that is respected, even though it has not always been, and for a #TwoStateSolution as soon as possible.

🎮 Gamers around the planet demand this too. We play together across every border, language and faith. Online, a teammate is a teammate. Gamers want the same thing in the real world: an end to the killing, safety for every civilian, and a lasting peace.

#GazaCeasefire #TwoStateSolution #GamersForPeace

What's up, everybody!

It's Friday (Vendredi) October (Octobre) 9, 2026. TGIF! It's a very important week, as we mark the somber 3rd anniversary of the war in Gaza, which a UN Commission of Inquiry has called a genocide. People around the planet continue to rally for peace and against the Netanyahu government.

Anyway, I wish everybody a wonderful weekend playing World of Warcraft: Midnight in multiplayer!

🔴 This weekend on my channel: I will livestream more of 007 First Light (James Bond). I will be better by the time this post is online, so I'll also be able to continue my livestream of Metal Gear Solid 4. Stay tuned to youtube.com/@iamzaki! #RazerCreator

🍸 007 First Light 📦 MGS IV ⚔️ WoW: Midnight

🛒 On my wishlist: Don't forget that The Crew Motorfest Year 4 DLC will be available, and I plan on getting it as soon as possible. It may take some time.

As you may know, I still need to get my hands on Pragmata, another "Dad Simulator" in the spirit of the much-praised Death Stranding series. I look forward to this sci-fi adventure as soon as I can find the funds. Want to help? venmo.com/iamzaki

🖥️ Shoutout to everybody having a LAN Party this weekend! After all, there are an estimated 3.7 billion gamers worldwide. Imagine what we could do if we all stood together for peace. The odds are good in our favor. Shoutout to Gabe Newell: we are still waiting for #HL3confirmed. 😉

🩺 Medical News Roundup

Gaza: Medicine in a Humanitarian Crisis

The humanitarian crisis in the Palestinian Territories, now in its third year, has created what international medical personnel describe as a catastrophic environment for healthcare. Human rights and advocacy organizations, including the Institute for Middle East Understanding (IMEU), have documented the near-total collapse of the healthcare system amid a blockade, severe supply restrictions, and attacks on medical facilities. More than 74,000 Palestinians have been killed, according to Gaza's Health Ministry, alongside tens of thousands of severe, life-altering injuries. Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) and the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) have repeatedly warned that doctors, nurses, and ambulance crews are working in extreme danger, facing overwhelming trauma loads with minimal access to electricity, fuel, clean water, or basic surgical supplies. [1, 2, 3, 4]

Foreign doctors who volunteered in Gaza have described the trauma cases they treated. Several reported treating civilians, including young children, with single gunshot wounds to the head or chest, which they said were consistent with deliberate long-range fire rather than random crossfire. Human rights investigators and medical groups have also reported people burned to death during airstrikes on tent encampments, torture and abuse of detained healthcare workers and other prisoners, and sexual and gender-based violence against people in detention. [4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]

The damage extends to future generations and vital infrastructure. Beyond strikes affecting pediatric, neonatal, and maternity wards, the shelling of Gaza's largest fertility clinic destroyed roughly 4,000 frozen embryos, the last hope of hundreds of couples. According to UN reports and healthcare monitoring groups, more than 1,700 healthcare workers have been killed while on duty, and hundreds more have been detained or mistreated. A UN Commission of Inquiry found that Israeli attacks on Gaza's health facilities and treatment of detainees amounted to war crimes and crimes against humanity. [1, 2, 10, 11, 12]

🎧 Music Therapy · Musicothérapie

The 007 First Light Soundtrack as Music Therapy

The soundtrack for 007 First Light, crafted by the British musical duo The Flight, serves as an exceptional tool for music therapy due to its unique blend of sophisticated orchestral textures, deep ambient electronics, and specific psychological triggers.

While traditional Bond scores rely heavily on high-octane brass and chaotic action suites, 007 First Light leans into a more psychological, introspective espionage atmosphere. This makes it highly effective for stress reduction, cognitive focus, and emotional regulation. Here is how the composition elements map to the goals of music therapy:

🧠 1. Cognitive Focus and "Flow State" Activation

Music therapy often uses instrumental tracks to help people reach deep concentration or a "flow state."

Minimalist electronic pulses: The Flight incorporates rhythmic, low-frequency synths that act as an auditory anchor. These consistent rhythms help sustain focus without causing distraction.
The "spy" mindset: Bond music is inherently associated with peak competence, heightened awareness, and calm under pressure. Listening to this aesthetic can prompt a sense of confidence, helping people tackle stressful tasks (like studying or deep work) with a composed, methodical mindset.

🌊 2. Stress Reduction via Sonic Grounding

The soundtrack emphasizes lower-register instruments, shifting away from aggressive, jarring frequencies.

Warm orchestral swells: Deep cellos, muted brass, and sweeping strings dominate the score. In music therapy, these lower frequencies are grounding and can help lower heart rate and reduce physical anxiety.
Slow tempo control: Many atmospheric tracks sit near a resting heart rate tempo (around 60 to 80 beats per minute), which encourages the body to slow down, regulate breathing, and decompress.

🎭 3. Safe Emotional Exploration and Catharsis

One of the core pillars of music therapy is letting listeners process complex emotions in a safe space.

Melancholic and cinematic depth: Lana Del Rey's haunting title theme and the melancholic string arrangements throughout the album lend a sense of cinematic grandeur to ordinary struggles.
Processing tension: The music gently introduces minor-key tension and then resolves it. This tension-and-release dynamic mimics real-world stressors, giving the brain a safe, structured way to experience tension and feel the relief of its resolution.

🌌 4. Escapism and Immersive Imagery

Guided imagery is a powerful music therapy technique where sound transports the mind away from immediate anxieties. The rich, textured score conjures vivid imagery — shadowy European streets, rain-slicked pavement, and sleek, quiet environments. This strong sense of place offers an immediate mental escape from cyclical or anxious thoughts.

Speed, Nostalgia, and the Mind: Why The Crew Motorfest Year 4 (Season 12) Is the Ultimate Video Game Therapy

In the conversation about video game therapy, we often talk about cozy farming simulators or deep, narrative-driven indies. But for a massive community of players, true mental decompression doesn't happen on a virtual farm — it happens at 7,000 RPM on a rain-slicked asphalt strip.

With the arrival of The Crew Motorfest Year 4 DLC, specifically Season 12, Ivory Tower isn't just dropping fresh content; it's delivering a potent dose of digital therapy. By centering this chapter on the triumphant return of Asian car culture — headlined by the highly anticipated, modern-era Nissan Nismo Skyline GT-R — the game taps into a unique psychological trifecta: nostalgia, the healing power of the "flow state," and the comfort of predictable, mechanical control.

1. The Dopamine of Anticipation and the "JDM Nostalgia" Effect

Therapy begins long before the game even boots up: the anticipation of a major content drop triggers a healthy release of dopamine. For car enthusiasts, the focus on Asian automotive culture strikes a deeply personal chord. Whether you grew up watching The Fast and the Furious, playing classic arcade racers, or going to real-life car meets, iconic Japanese Domestic Market (JDM) and Asian performance cars evoke powerful, positive memories. A modern masterpiece like a recent Nissan Nismo Skyline GT-R bridges childhood wonder and modern gaming, and a virtual cockpit that feels intimately familiar offers an instant emotional anchor.

2. Accessing the "Flow State" Through Precision Driving

When life feels chaotic, our brains crave environments where actions have clear, predictable consequences. Driving a high-performance machine like a Nismo Skyline requires a delicate balance of throttle control, braking lines, and steering inputs. As you tune the car, listen to the twin-turbo growl, and learn how it handles the Hawaiian corners, your brain enters a "flow state." The background noise of daily anxiety, work fatigue, and mental stress fades; the mind is occupied by the next apex, the sound of the engine, and the blur of neon lights. It is an active, deeply therapeutic form of meditation.

3. Low-Stakes Autonomy and Escapism

Unlike high-stress competitive shooters where your peace of mind is at the mercy of toxic lobbies or unforgiving netcode, The Crew Motorfest offers low-stakes autonomy. In Season 12, you are the author of your own experience. Want to test the limits of the new Nismo GT-R in a high-speed sprint? You can. Want to turn off the HUD, roll down the windows, and just cruise under the virtual night sky listening to rain on the windshield? You have total freedom. This sense of control is incredibly restorative for anyone who feels overwhelmed by things they can't control in daily life.

4. A Welcoming Community and Shared Passion

The festival atmosphere of Motorfest fosters a low-pressure style of social connection. Season 12's focus on Asian car culture gives the community a unified reason to gather: meeting other players at a virtual car meet, showing off custom liveries on your Skyline, and cruising down a mountain pass together creates a sense of belonging built entirely on a shared, positive interest.

The Verdict

The Year 4 DLC is more than a garage expansion; it is a dedicated mental getaway. By bringing back the soul of Asian car culture and legendary badges like the Nismo Skyline GT-R, The Crew Motorfest gives players a beautiful, high-speed sanctuary to unwind, recharge, and find their focus.

#GazaCeasefire #TwoStateSolution

What's up, everybody!

It's Wednesday (Mercredi) October (Octobre) 7, 2026. Today we discuss the world of Music.

🎤 Music for Palestine

I'd like to give a big shoutout to MACKLEMORE for his song on Palestine. I want to give a big shoutout to PNL for their song on Gaza. I implore musicians to release more compilations of music for the people of Palestine, with the proceeds going to help those affected in the Palestinian Territories.

More than 74,000 Palestinians have been killed, according to Gaza's Health Ministry. It's a tragedy.

There must be peaceful protests throughout the nation and throughout the world, demanding an end to the Netanyahu government. Elections are coming up in Israel; it is imperative that he is removed from office.

📻 JETLAG RADIO 5100 is the latest main DJ podcast. This is a very exciting week: while we celebrate Music today, last night was the celebration of the DJ MAG #Top100DJs announcement, which I believe is in Ibiza.

I hope that I am on the list, or that there is a mention, a paragraph, a page, an article, a feature, or a photo of myself in DJ MAG's next issue. It's my dream that such recognition would finally provide me with a new car/vehicle.
