i'm in the background.
I know what you're thinking. She's abandoned us! She lost interest! Not so. I've just been investing a lot of time on one pinnacle experiment. Which I'll be posting soon and submitting to nutriot.com. I hope that they can appreciate the abstractions that I'm attempting to actualize. Ha, didn't see that coming, did you?
In any case, before I post my review of the forthcoming Soosh album, I feel that perhaps I should create some kind of thesis for this so-called 'experiment.' I learned at least that much in school. So, to elaborate, I've recently been pondering a great deal on the idea of music vs. words (not lyrics.) I listen to a lot of music and I read a lot of music literature over a broad range of sources. And I can't help but think, "there are only SO many comparisons.." and I often find myself sighing over worn-out terminology and tuckered cliches.
So, I've been trying to come up with a cohesive way to not just simply "interpret" and describe an album or track, but to narrate it. I want to simulate the journeys and experiences that certain albums or tracks are capable of taking me on--through words.
It's a bit radical, I know. But as music evolves, so must the way we listen to it and so must the way we write about it. You may notice that this blog is ever-changing. I'm never satisfied with the way these sentences flow or how the space to image ratio feels. I don't believe in the finite. EVOLVE.
