Ba Ba Ba!

On Saturday, I ended up spending a couple hours just listening to music. I haven't really listened to music for so long. I forgot how relaxed and way happy it makes me.

Musical elements I love: punchy, crisp drums, a clever bassline, crunchy or bright guitars, big, big chords or a single spare melody plucked out of a piano, "whoa"s, "yeahs", "ba ba"s, and other non-word words in lyrics, hand claps, pauses, the three-beat drum bridge where a song goes from a simple arrangement to full band or simply from verse to chorus, sad songs set to happy melodies - the list goes on and on.

I wanna be in band. Currently, I can ... extract noise from the piano, guitar, and drums. Maybe a summer project will be to work on one of those. Suparfun.

The song I'm closing out the weekend with: "TV Family," The Rocket Summer.
