Used to believe music was a human connection thing, an evolutionary pre-language trait. However of late going full Michael Pollan in that we are evolving to better express what music wants.

who poverty and tatters and hollow-eyed and high sat up smoking in the supernatural darkness of cold-water flats floating across the tops of cities contemplating Drillnb

A wonderful time to be questioned why we make songs by family, friends, strangers, and even our computers!

Stuff your ears full of wax and sail on dear music makers!

Em Dash, by Daedelus 20 track album

Slowly wanting to put more words to it. The cast of characters, the motives behind the sound, and yet I cannot help but hope the music is loudest proof of all.

endless waves of despondency, by Ashen Blood 9 track album

If I haven't seen you in person perhaps I haven't already talked your ear off about the Lost Frog label and what they are doing inundating the airwaves with hyperflip/dariacore goodness. It's way too much. This here is more the braindance side of things:

Dream Child (Bonus Disc), by Omari Jazz 16 track album

1st I'm catching up with the one and only @omarijazz.bsky.social

not another Friday. Not just any release day.

Our best chance to direct attention where due.

Here's what I'm getting into to (thus far)

*pls share what's on your wishes list*

Isn’t GEM the synth company that always had those awesome other tuning systems?

Like you could learn an instrument tomorrow if you reframed your thoughts towards what it required.

I can say from 1st hand experience you won’t know what will become heard. Making more makes sense in this way. However please know that every song taken to a finish-line takes toll. Think of it like encumbrance in gaming. Eventually you can’t move if you are carrying too much.

A preponderance of examples wouldn’t agree, but what if instead of creating an overwhelming amount of music you focused on a few worthy?

This pretty sensible advice on the surface. Not engaged with the current climate of attention spans. So really something for those with a few records out.
