I thought you'd abandoned us Benny.
There's something about Valiant I find vaguely off-putting. I can't put my finger on what it is—some kind of industry plant vibes lol. I could get over that, and Dunce Cheque is his best so far. Still, I prefer Kraff on that same riddim:
Valiant works for me in this trio setting (and Bree Bree is very promising; she picks interesting drill-ish almost house-y riddims)
Nice & queasy riddim on this Roze Don tune:
My tastes may have fatally diverged from Dissensus'—I do like Mugger though—but Skeng's garishly mollied up Elvis Presley might be the best thing I've heard so far this year? I don't know, the genre's in a weird place

I sort of did abandon you tbh, nothing to do with dancehall though, I just don't really listen to any music anymore, maybe one or two songs a week nowadays. Maybe I'll get back into it again now the weather's nice.

You're probably right, I'm 42. The weird thing is I don't care in the slightest. Something so central to my life as music for all that time, you think you'll be into it forever, then quite suddenly I've got no desire for it all. It's still nice now and then if it catches me in the right mood, but more often than not it's irritating and I've got no drive to find anything new, or even listen to old stuff. Not traumatic at all, but quite weird when I think about it.
31 and yeah, although I do still listen to music. I made a thread a while back about 'not listening to music' because of feeling the same way you describe. I just suddenly realised it wasn't that important to me to be digging or keeping up with things and it had become a much more casual interest.
Not listening to music
For the first time in years I haven't listened to music on a daily basis, just haven't had the desire to for whatever reason, and I'm surprised by how little it's bothered me. I dunno whether it's simply a case of fatigue or something more significant, but at times it hasn't even occurred to me...

Ah yeah I remember seeing that thread ages ago, and then when it properly happened to me I went looking for it to see what people on here had said but couldn't find it, nice one.

music is also very functional and I imagine as you age and become more closed off theres less need for it. As a young man who still has numerous concerns out in the world I still find that I 'need' music and little moments where I wish I had more of the right music for whatever appropriate situation keep me looking for more
