Seriously. How much do we need? How many of those gigs do you listen to on a regular basis? I can only handle so much. Not all of the music in my library is listenable, but it was at one time. Not to say I "grew up", but that's kinda what happened. Kinda applies since I'm still trying to grow down.
Right now I'm listening to Massive Attack's "Protection". Never listened to it before today, although I know it's been in my library for, yikes, ages it seems. So is it familiarity that drives us to listen to the same music from the same artist release after release? Yes and no. There are certain aesthetics each person brings into this world, artist or not. We all need some consistency, yeah. But part of me wants to break away from the same ol'.
And if this is already beginning to sound like a random blabbering of an eschewed internal monologue, well, you're right.
Interesting things learned this week so far:
*That key "Prt Scr" (Print Screen) makes a copy of your screen and lets you paste it into whatever image editing program you have available and augment it from there.
*My keyboard does NOT have a touch pad. Mice are nice, but I do favor the thumbin' pleasures only granted by my touch pad.
*Paul Hahn, principal of Daft Arts, Inc., produced Electroma, and he can be contacted at 310-275-1926, 205 S Beverly Dr., Suite 214, Beverly Hills, CA 90212-3872. Scary, right?
*JB Dunckel's side project, Darkel, isn't that great, which is highly disappointing. But then again, maybe it will resurrect itself in a month or so.
More to come in the days, weeks, months & years ahead.
