a thought

i understand why "art music" exists. i understand absurdity, dadism, the need for a composer to express himself. i understand the contributions that esoteric music has made to the mainstream, and i have composed my share of avant garde pieces to explore this facet of musical creation.

but when i listen to your five minute atonal composition consisting of a
grand total of seven different sounds, don't tell me that the reason i don't like
it is because

i don't get you

if it's not hard, then it's not art. if you didn't slave over it, then it's just a byproduct of your quest for musical expression

but fortunately for you, THAT doesn't mean SHIT

something new...

so, now that i'm formally studying again at suny purchase, i have lots more time to write, so hopefully i'll be able to update more often. this is a new tune that i'm pretty happy with, although the track itself is kind of overproduced.

1. i cuffed you a delicious bass (Christensen)
