In the last year or so I’ve realised, through observation I guess, that I’ve actually really been missing out on music. I’m ashamed. I’ve always said I’m not a lyrical person – I never truly appreciated what this actually meant until recently.

When music is played, it should be listened to. Not just heard. Every word digested, every note of every instrument, every beat & rhythm, tones & all that stuff one learnt in music at school. Then, if you take it to a further level, you can feel the musician (this perhaps suggests assumption) & the effort they have put into creating this sound.

- One reason why I hate the larger music industries, they take this away from the bands; push them in directions they don’t want to take, piss on their parade.

But yeah, I wanna hear it all, especially the words. Like Bob Dylan. I’ll report back soon =P

Music that provoked this post: Bonobo (funny how there’s not many words)
