new visual canvas

2010.07.22

I have always been searching for music that stimulates me in a certains way. I used to like music in which I could analyze in dissect in a linguistic way in my brain. I remember when I went through phases of liking punk mainly to fit in, then liking Sufjan and Andrew Bird types for the meaning of lyrics and vocals. Now I am at this phase where I really like House and techno music. I can analyze this music visually in my brain. It is a different way of thinking with the Mind’s Eye. When I hear sounds I like clarity, sterility, depth, and richness in sound. When everything “works” my brain really becomes enriched by the image of sound. The more precise the sound is the more I can see spaces, walls, and sheers. I can get lost in the depths of bass or in a fog. I can think in new ways not offered by subvocally analyzing music.

Here are some albums I have been enjoying this summer

  • Glimpse – Runner
  • Guillame and the Coutu Doumants – Breaking the Fourth Wall
  • Efdemin – Chicago
  • Mathew Jonson – Agents of Time
  • Prins Thomas
  • Wendy Carlos – Bach
  • Stravinsky – Printemps
