about

Music is sound. It is repetition and abstraction of itself. It is subconscious, it is a lucid dream. It is new, it is rebuilt, and torn apart, and rebuilt again. Music is meditative. It is unspoken and in that fashion says many things. Music is unheard of, and a carbon copy. It is a reminder, a provoker, it is confusing and comfortable. Music is satisfying. It is accomplishing. Music is a challenge. I saw music as a game. I have seen it as a fight, a dance, a feeling, sometimes comforting. Music is hard to perform. It is uncomfortable to the touch, it is against me. Music is not my tendency and I am rebuilding that.
