In the piano part: (goes out for coffee)

“No one imagines that a symphony is supposed to improve as it goes along, or that the whole object of playing is to reach the finale. The point of music is discovered in every moment of playing and listening to it. It is the same, I feel, with the greater part of our lives, and if we are unduly absorbed in improving them we may forget altogether to live them.”

Alan Watts (via ladidadi420)

OmarRodríguez-López Pedals through different eras.

Let’s take 5 minutes of silence to aprecciate this….

Ok. I was going to do a post that discussed pedalboards with delays at the beggining of the chain and another that talked about wah pedals at the end of the chain. But I couldn’t resist making an exclusive post for Omar’s pedals. He has some delays at first. At never puts his wah at the begging at the pedal police officers orders. And also reverb at the beggining it some cases. 

I will attempt to explain his pedal order.

2011/2012:tuner>microamp>chorus>octave>analog delay>phaser>digital delay>wah>fuzz>tape delay>looper

So. The first photos are his Mars Volta 2001?-2010? pedalboard. Then his Mars Volta/ORL Group scaled down pedalboard of 2011/2012. After the At The Drive In reunion pedalboard. The last two are his Bosnian Rainbows pedals. 

Damn pedals are cool.

*I do not own any of the photos. I Stole them from different blogs, flickrs, magazines, tumblrs, pinterests, etc. and kept them in my computer a long time ago, but since I forgot to write where they came from I can’t put them. Sorry I guess.

So how does cutting funds for doctors advocating women's health or denying rights to birth control and cancer screenings help the anti-abortion movement? It doesn't.  Fuck your moral agendas, Gary Harger (and your dumbfuck supporters).

Ludvig Irgen Jensen:: Symphony No. 1 (1943)

L. I. Jensen (1894-1969), a philosophy student at the University of Oslo, continued to take private piano lessons and studied composition and theory independently. Despite his informal composing background, he still became a prominent Norwegian figure in the 20th century.

This symphony reflects his impressions of the German occupation during WWII.

Out of an entire symphony I had no one to talk to, or anyone I really wanted to talk to, despite the variety of 100+ people. I'm trying to define this loneliness, when it is in fact, loneliness.

It's kind of hard to tell from the blurry picture, but you look very pretty!

Thank you~ I suppose the blurriness served its purpose, lol

To the person who reblogged my post of John Dowland's "In darkness let me dwell" and labeled it as "16th century funeral doom": Just.

No. You don't deserve to hear nice things with your skewed concept of "dark" music.

P.S. It has nothing to do with a funeral!!
