but my soul knows it when it feels it.
You really made your taste as an arbiter of your spiritual vastitude.
but my soul knows it when it feels it.
There's no soul left. The people presented to us as soul artists sound like bad quotations - Adele's fried vocals. It's not like she's really singing about anything. Music by numbers. A distinct lack of anything that feels truly real. The internet is like the hunters blade sticking out of the ice, dipped in blood, and we're the hungy wolves lapping away thinking we're getting a meal. If the planet lasts long enough we're going to look back at now and wonder why we didn't at least try to stop it. Biggest head fuck in history. We all feel it on some level. But there's nowhere to direct our frustration, so we end up taking it out on eachother, further isolating ourselves and digging in to our personally curated realities. At least it's safe there...
The more virtual we consume. The more virtual we become. Our souls require the real™. Computer generated whatever just doesn't hit us the way physical, human generated whatever does. The less human input into the whatever, the less we will feel in response. I'm not buying that it's all subjective. And yeah, a lot of what I listen to is made on a computer, but the shit that matters cleary has more soul put into it. I can't define what that means, but my soul knows it when it feels it.
currently in Morocco and think I may have reached peak internal autotune capacity. the brain spasms.
but i came for the Gnaoua, maan. anyone under 40 will be listening to mostly AT'd tracks. maybe i'll see if i can find something cool when out and about
Well. Ahem.
I'm not interested in divination.
I don't think it adds anything sensible to the useful question of "what is this doing to us?".
That's probably the gap between us, which I am happy to gesticulate over with a smile.
Luka, I think part of the problem is most people on the forum dont listen to contemporary pop rnb rap dancehall etc. In fact I imagine when autotune became ubiquitous is the point where they got off the bus.

this is true. which is doubly a problem because part of the reason for me asking the question is that i dont listen to it either! which is why i wanted some help in fleshing this stuff out! i walk into topshop for a new pair of leggings and it all sounds new and shiny but i dunno what the fuck it is.
