I love sounds just as they are, and I have no need for them to be anything more then what they are. I don’t want them to be psychological, I don’t want a sound to pretend that its a bucket, or that it’s president or that it’s in love with another sound. I just want it to be a sound -John Cage The first question I ask myself when something doesn't seem to be beautiful is why do I think it's not beautiful. And very shortly you discover that there is no reason. -John Cage All that I desire to point out is the general principle that life imitates art far more than art imitates life. -Oscar Wilde No matter what you do, you’re always hearing something. — George Brecht The avant-garde makes more sense to me. — John Cale

Years ago, people used to generalize EDM as techno, but now people generalize it as dubstep.

Dear followers,

My blog is a music blog. It consists purely of me posting links to Youtube videos of songs I like and sharing my thoughts about these songs.  Music is an art form. It is not a commodity to be bought and sold. Records are a commodity, tapes and cd's are a commodity but the sound itself is not. When I post a link to a Youtube video I'm sharing the creation of an artist. These sounds are meant to be heard, that is why they were made. The sounds were not created to be bought and sold. Therefore they cannot be stolen. However not everyone understands this. Members of our government want to make my blog impossible to run. People with PhD's in law and economics. What do these people know of music and art? Members of the media want to make my blog impossible to run. People who run big businesses and lust after money and power these people do not understand the true beauty of creation. Music is not an object that can be controlled by the government. It is and outpouring of ideas and emotions. If Sopa/ Protect-IP passes my blog along with countless other much more relevant and important sites will effectively be shut down. It may not happen right away, it may not be as obvious as a direct shutdown. But overtime the internet, particularly the creative side of the internet would become crippled. So it's up to you; musicians, artists, creators of all things. Stop this ridiculousness. Inform yourselves, write to your senators and congressmen. Keep torrenting music, keep youtube listening, use myspace and bandcamp and reverbnation and buy cd's and go to concerts. Give money to artists in the right way so we can continue to openly experience creativity on the internet.
