music in your head

[Psychoid]

And hell yea my brain loves music, I simply can't imagine living without it!!!!

Yo dude, if you liked shpongle, you should probably consider trying dark psy on for size. It's pretty intense...

music is pure logic. i think that is the main reason to the brain come up with some music when it is lonely. when i walk, i always am singing, or playing some instruments in my head, and very often playing the drums. but when i meditate at night, strange sounds emerge, and they are not organized music, they are voices talking, screaming, strange noises. and all complimented with nice CEV's with reds, blues and yellows, but nothing too vivid. but in daytime, i am always "listening" to something, it kept growing like a habit, drumming with my hands while i walk, sometimes singing, talking alone...all in name of music. i share the idea of Erik Satie, a great musician: "i don't know why i keep loving music, since it does more bad than good to me". music is the only art that does not occupy space, and it is lost in "time", we cannot touch it. but we cannot live without it. we have it in our homes, our cars, even in the toilet in the mall. music was a rare event in the past, in where you played the instrument, or you were lucky enough to hear someone play it. perhaps every sunday. now, music has become futile, ordinary and common. perhaps a very discrete mirror in which we can look at our behaviour towards life.

yeah music has become cheap. It's just something for the brain to do while idle, although a very cool "something".

Then you've clearly not seen my record collection :mrgreen:
And sound also can fill a room

I seriously could not disagree more on this stance.
Yes, there is a lot of commercial shit and yes that is for people who care too little about music and listen radio and don't mind hearing those same stupid songs all day long.
But there is a very very big core of music lovers and musicians who don't have anything to do with the commercial crap that floods the market.
I think this stance disrespects a really big group of real artists that make awe-inspiring music.
I'm seriously hoping I misunderstood....

And I also love Satie very much

I'm not saying every music is crap today! and I'm sure neither did daytripper. It's just that music, as an art form, it's cheap, it's everywhere, makes one forget it is actually art getting through our ears; and compared to things like painting and sculpture and poetry, music is not as "highly regarded" (not by me) nowadays, whatever that means, due to it's ubiquitousness.

i mean that music lost it's place in art, because you are constantly bombarded with music: commercials, background music in the mall, in cafes, music is almost obligatory, and once i've been to a snack-bar that didn't had background music, just a woman sitting on a chair reading a magazine, and all the people looked really uncomfortable, because their conversation could be heard by anyone in that room. i wasn't talking about the music that is made today or in the past. there are good music and bad music, like there always have been. some live to the sellection of time, others do not. i love the way the music is today, because there is enough supply to endure several lifetimes!
but music as an art has become mandatory as a background, like all houses were obligated socially to be painted like a painting. that means that music hasn't got the same value that it did when it was rare to hear a live concert. like when we go to museums and see the real Guernica standing in front of you, or the Pietà.

 

[????????]

Exactly.

 

[magickmumu]

What can I say. Music I love it. Inside my head, around my head. Going in en out of my head.
Pa pa pa Bada bada boom da da do. Fleng bang bang. Rapatatata. Going up and going down. You know what it’s like.


There is no such thing as bad music.
There is music I dislike. For example I can’t listen to U2.

Yeah well, you get bombarded with music that really has nothing to do with art.
There's music and there's music.
Not being rare doesn't make the experience of an awesome concert less special.
And you still get surprised by artful artists who are awesome on stage.

But I don't think the mandatory brackground stuff should be confused with art.
Besides 1 painting is totally different from 1 song.
A few (rich) people collect master copies of songs, but it's not like a single copy like paintings.
Music is the art and it doesn't matter what media it's on (although some prefer cd's, some prefer vinyl)

Yeah that also made me think how functional commercial music has become. Its more like a mood-enhancer than anything else, sort of how like muzak is carefully researched to get people to shop.

 

[magickmumu]

The also use smell and colour to enhance mood. The use smell to make you want to shop. And it is said the colours of McDonalds makes you want to eat.

 

[Guest]

Even if it does, it does NOT want me to eat at SmackDonalds....

 

[????????]

jajaja supposedly the very bright colors invite people to get in but also makes them want to leave early..

No, it's the absence of food in a place they're supposed to have food.

 

[BrainEater]

hehe well it's not in vain called junk food... junk as food ... alright!!!! ... :mrgreen: :toimonster: :wasted:

 

[Psychoid]

lol, Double Big Macs taste great!!

 

[skrudge]

no way im eating that shit ever again. period.

 

[Psychoid]

Why not? Off course it's very bad if you eat it often, but just once in a while is not too bad.
I have found there is a connection between regular cannabis use and regular McDonald consumption

PS: We are getting pretty off topic lol

 

[Guest]

i agree with psychoid. cannabis and mcdonald's have a synergy. after smoking a fatty, what's best than go to the mcdrive and order a bigmac ? i used to do that a lot. nowadays, i don't do both.
