Hella busy these days but just came here to say: My God! How can the blog keep getting better and better?

Well articulated. It’s good for a more chill, relaxed + upbeat vibe. Just enough energy to push contemplation but doesn’t distract it.

This.

Actually, hip hop without the lyrics (only beats and instruments) are some of the most firey and motivating music out there. It’s the ’get shit done’ energy. And as a dancer, it’s some of the most fun beats to kill.

Melancholic is everything. I have a huge list of that one.

I will read the thread when I have time but for now, here is an electronic track I have been vibing with recently. It was created during the lockdown to express what fans and artists were feeling. This is electronic with soul, with meaning. The drop is a VIBE. https://on.soundcloud.com/y9efNXthWzTgeSY6t8

For me, truth is the most important thing because that’s the only thing that leads to anything healthy, harmonious, sustainable, and most importantly, Real. The only other option is falsehood, and that leads to all the opposite of what I meantion, hence it is ugly.

Rufus! Now we are getting reallly close to my thing!

Oh God, welcome back but I am not looking forward to having you two fight like teenagers going at each other

Good night peepz! At the end of the day, I love ya’ll and have great gratitude for you, whether its the big daddy or you smaller fries

Your jealousy Shines Bright Like A Diamond

Both pictures look like he’s about to BLAST NEURODIVERGENT on the forum for 7 days straight.

Such anti climax indeed. Then again, he told us to fuck off earlier for shitting on (read: discuss apppropiately) his music taste, so you can only blame yourself for such expectations

Yes, I was gonna say. It is derailing too deep into that here. I feel like we are all waiting for someone who has contemplated the subject deeply to take charge and start it. There’s been many in-depth sub-convos about it but not one fully dedicated to it yet. But yes, enough about it here.

Correct. Highly emotional music is not good for contemplation. I do those music more for my own emotional release, healing, and to make art, and to touch normies on a deep emotional level.

Yep, I’ve said this before but musical taste is one of those things that is deeply personal. Hence: But precisely because it is so personal, discussing it in depth has the potential for a lot of growth and self-reflection. Except, it’s far more likely we just start fighting and throwing personal attacks. Aliens would be looking at us like little babies throwing tantrums

Ah, stop it!

Interesting perspective. Or moods? I literally have like 5-10 different ”frames” I juggle between: - Majestic - Pain, heartbreak - Anger / Aggression - Hip Hop beats that I like to kill with my dance - Bittersweet - Fun (mostly fun EDM, club and pop music) - Sexy / Love Making - Chill - Contemplative - Uplifting, Upbeat And more There is also a genre called Majestic Casual. It’s very beautiful: https://on.soundcloud.com/gg3k0DJVdesMJbeFth

Yep. Well said. And don’t get me wrong, I do listen to those more uplifting, upbeat and beautiful in that way -type of music too. But here we dove into the topic of emotional depth. Also, as an emotional being and a dancer, I get the most out of my body, dancing skills wise, when I let deep pain take me over. Or anger, hence I started as a hip hop dancer but as I matured, I grew tired of ”biches, money and gun” type of music, and went more into love and heartbreaks type of music, as that is more conscious than violence.

Yeah, I went through 4 extremely painful break ups that grew me so fucking much. Each being extremely painful in its own ways. The first ones were painful because they were my first times, for the lasts ones I was mentally prepared for, but the relationships were way deeper than my first ones. But on top of the lyrics, listen to the dramatic melodies and the tone of the singing towards the end. It’s very sad and seemingly hopeless. But she is still trying to win the pain. It’s bittersweet. Bittersweet is one of the most powerful and emotional emotions I experience. It expresses the quintessential paradox of life.

I love how we have developed a lot of roots to a huge tree of discussion about Music, but we have yet to actually start and dive DEEP into it. We had one minor version of it the other week. It’s clearly coming.

Definitely. In fact I feel that way with most electronic music too. And honestly, with most music genres and songs in general. In every genre, there’s just a few rare gems that has that specialness to it. For example, this one is a complete different genre and most of the songs in the genre is total crap but if I want to feel deep into my pain, this one does it. I cant remember how many times I’ve cried to this. It’s raw: https://on.soundcloud.com/pPgeiDEu3gJVhSnXRK

Chill. We are just discussing our experience.

Last one, this is such ethereal. So graceful. If I haven’t listened to it for a while and it spontaneous starts playing, tears immediately roll out. Listen to the build up towards the drop: https://on.soundcloud.com/ai6HMTP4DWKTfsVAMh

Listen to how majestic these are, despite being in the electronic music genre: The angelic voice of the singer. My Godness. And definitely wait for the last drop:
