Picks, my music, about music
I had a phenomenal time at the Coffin Club this evening and met some wonderful people and had some wonderful conversations and experiences that will probably change the rest of my life . . . which experiences tend to do anyway. 🙂
I lost my phone however! And I hope to recover it tomorrow. 🙂⚰️🙃📱
I found this awesome recording of “A View To A Kill” on #Smule: https://www.smule.com/sing-recording/431877638_3967598367
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I think that the algorithm could use some work there, Smule. My track was not very synced-up with the original vocalist, and I hope that’s obvious to everybody who listened to this. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 But it is a pretty neat system! I wonder what caused the lag. Maybe it’s something I can fix when I do it next time.

FYI, this is what is called music. (And art.) 🙂 Just a reminder. 💜 It seems like there is some confusion these days about what is music and what is simply rhythmic noise.
What is a song, after all? What makes a song a song? What is the essence of the song? I think it’s just that thing out there that you appreciate for what it is and enjoy it!!! Or you don’t like it and you want it to go away. I do, anyway. I’m a very harsh music critic. I think it’s because my ears are so sensitive, delicate and fragile. 🙂 That’s part of it. But it’s also about how it strikes you. That’s what it comes down to, it seems; whatever we conceive of as “music appreciation” or “liking a song” is the intersection of your life, that moment you hear the song, and the multitude of things that begat the songwriter’s product.
Two things everyone needs to start doing in this new era are 1) get friendly with natural psychoactive flora, (Mother Earth’s own candy, for Piet’s sake!!!!!!), and 2) DANCE. Dance all the time! There should always be music, and when you hear music you should be moving some part of your body in response. Make it a new habit if you have to think of it that way.
I will post a list of soul brothers on my blog or website shortly. I probably will include. . . .
