Might as well bump this pig, since the other music thread is going well.
You are a musician @BitterSydā¦you play music everyday.
Hear me out:
26 letters in the English/Latin alphabet. You learned all of these basic letters first, then you moved on to learning how to combine these letters into words. Then you learned how to combine these words into sentences. Then you learned how to create emotion with these words by the tone in which you speak themā¦yelling, whispering, slowing down, speeding up, etcā¦
That is music. Speaking a language is music. We are all musicians.
Music consists of 7 basic letters (A-G). You learn a few basic rules to create structure with these notes, just like forming a sentence with letters and words.
If you can speak and write in any languageā¦then you have already become a musician. You just didnāt realize it.
Pick up that guitar, harmonica, or bass that I believe you have laying around your house. And start speaking a new languageā¦
More fun stuff to think through. Prog is probably my favorite genre. Started in the mid '60s and continues today in various modes.
One of my faves!
Thank you youtube algorithm. Worth a share. Tough song to perform on any instrument, on top of a tough song to do vocallyā¦,ā¦,ā¦andā¦thisā¦dudeā¦nails it! I was blown away by this performance.
Gonnaā bump this pig for a tasty treat from the Sugar Cubes.
Really think Bjork should have stayed with the 'Cubes. The only time I ever enjoyed her.
I saw Morphine just a couple months before Mark Sandmanās heart attack. I think it was thief last show before going out on the European tour in which he passed away. Soul Coughing opened. Really awesome show.
