“I learned in my sophomore year music appreciation course that African music the soul and backbone of jazz”
ᶜᵃʳᵐⁱⁿᵉ 🏳️⚧️@carmindsntexist
never have i been more grateful for taking those music appreciation classes.

its actually really hard to put into words how optimistic it felt when all this music was coming out in the 2000s

its crazy that for millenials this was just a mid throwaway indie pop one hit wonder amidst hundreds of others during a golden age of indie music destined to be forgotten, but has recently been rediscovered because music right now is just that fucking bad

Choosing to relax is one of the most powerful things you can do. You become a manifestation magnet.

About 20% of the population are thought to be "highly sensitive."
Higher sensitivity to negative emotion (trait neuroticism) + high trait openness the associated traits.
As a male growing up this way it becomes imperative to learn ur instrument virtuoso. twitter.com/i/events/91366…

“But like why does it matter? Why do you care about correcting the record so much?”
Well it matters because 20th c American music is one of the rare big successes of interchange between ethnicities, and as such it is an example that shows the way forward.
A narrative of pure black creativity simply being appropriated by oppressive whites is not only factually/historically wrong, it also stifles the dynamic that leads to creation of beauty in encounter with the other.
You can’t generate any of the benefits of diversity if you believe in Cultural Appropriation theory; for those upsides you need to be ready to exchange knowledge, technology, to guiltlessly assimilate that which the other knows — and in the process you just might help to establish some shared stakes, common ground, be something new…

It’s worth noticing that the I IV V chord progression of stereotypical blues is extremely common English folk music and not common at all in African traditional music; then again, American blacks are typically 30-40% British

just as one example of how extremely wrong the belief is, let's take The Blues. The first documented use of the concept "the blues" is in an 1850 composition "I have got the blues today" by Gustave Blessner. The earliest documented 12-bar blues progression in a manuscript is Anthony Maggio's "I got the blues." And as soon as recording technology exists, we get recordings from rural whites as well as blacks playing blues, in addition to recordings from integrated bands; here's a white blues from the 20's by Lowe Stokes. youtu.be/tF9jwINcnTU?si…

The European music tradition from the middle ages through to the 20th century was not “comparatively inert” you loon. It was if anything the African music tradition across those centuries that was “comparatively inert.” Of course, industrial modernity brought an explosion.

@ClickingSeason Yeah but Europe had all of that for hundreds of years and never created any of this music, until a tiny group of enslaved Black people got involved the European musical tradition was comparatively inert. No one believes that Euros/Americans could produce a Hendrix sans Blacks.

We can’t continue to let this false ethnonarcissistic narrative about music history stand. True, all of these genres have important early innovators who are black. But they also all are based fundamentally on European musical systems, structures, and instruments, and they have white innovators of equal importance. The history of 20th century music has been whites and blacks in dialog. This is true from the blues all the way through to techno

Poetry—like all art—has a trinitarian function:
CREATIVE b/c it takes the raw materials of fact+feeling+makes them into that which is neither fact nor feeling
REDEMPTIVE"transforms pain, ugliness of life into joy, beauty
SANCTIFYING"gives the transitory a relative form of meaning

ART = above all about inspiring human emotions:
- joy
- sadness
- anger
- fear
- et al.
Artist's – musicians, poets, movie-makers – play on sapiens' biochemical systems
An algorithm may know this better than any human artist soon
