*Rant Warning with Brief Lapses into Sanity*
Music is strange when you think of it. It can make you think of the downfall of humanity, portray a vivid image or even give you chills. My main hobby being Video Making, I am gifted almost cursed with being inspired. Not a day or a conversation goes by with out an idea or mental image being formed. Constantly I am building a story or portraying a visual montage with every thing I see. Perhaps this is what it's like to be an artist. I do consider Movie Making an art form, but for me it's more, it's a definition of myself, it's me.
I'm drifting away from music, going into Movie Making. Perhaps because I'm listing to flowing Blink 182, but it has a purpose. Music inspires me. Life can be dry and dull with out music. Maybe it's just me but I hear imaginary music in my head, as if my life is pixelated and we are in a movie in everyday situations. People call it getting a song stuck in your head, I call it inspiration, my constant curse of visualization.
I hope you enjoy worded conversion of my thoughts, but I should stick to music. I listen to music singularly. If I hear a pleasing song on the radio, I'll like it and buy it later. Music for me doesn't need words. Just like a movie, I feel a emotion can be conveyed better through a feeling rather than words. I like scores better than soundtracks. Kind of because some pointless songs get on soundtracks that don't relate to the movie at all. But the feeling of the film is all there in a score. Close your eyes and your there, captured in a two hour lapse to another world. For me it's impossible to describe music abstractly with out bringing in visualization, in my case a visual image captured on tape.
Literally, I like music that has a good beat frankly. I only like heavier rock if it's clean enough, and if it sounds intense enough. I like lighter stuff if it's catchy. I'm not that specific, but I don't want to touch pure Rap or Country. It doesn't work for me and it just doesn't sound good. All this vague stuff in the rant before is true, it's how I feel, but I like music 'cuz it sounds cool too.
