Such a wonderful one again. Just one day for participation? Now we passed two already so I'm too late to create a contribution. Owww, thinking of it, first need to learn to play some instrument to be able to participate. Not gonna happen :)
Oneness. Such a great topic. Not sure what John was thinking when writing and playing, but one thing that I think of immediately when talking about oneness is the oneness between my 2 brain cells (all I have left) and music. When that happens, it makes me feel so good. And as you know, I usually have that with not so happy-sounding music which makes it even more interesting in my view. Being happy whilst listening and having the oneness feeling with sad-sounding music. Interestingly, John's music you played, is to the more sad side as well :)
Yes, Sunday was the last day to submit your participation, but maybe we could extend it a bit for those who saw it late? Not even working machine music that you could play on or with the help of aiva? No, well you have participated then as the audience :) Thank you!
The topic was chosen several weeks ago. We had picked the song, Oh My Love as it could be performed both in English or Spanish, one of the members of the team made the Spanish adaptation. So the aim was to bring this same song through different voices, languages (ok, just two) instruments and make a big mash-up out of the entries that match the tempo, key, etc (there was a given backing track). So, oneness because of that, making harmony around the world through music. Until now more than 100 entries with this song came, so it can take a bit of time this week to be finished the edition of that huge video. I played here a modest accompany kind of cover, adapted the key and pace to serve in the mash-up as background (well, with hopes it can be blended into it :D )
I don't know either what John was thinking writing and playing it, but he would be surprised this week so many musicians performed his song (I hope positively surprised :)) )
Yes, luckily I know that being united with music means happiness for you and the type of more sad-ish music is what kicks in you. But is it always the case? Just asking, if you hear a super upbeat track - song - musical piece, it doesn't bring the same feeling?
(unrelated, but listened to all remix versions of Fernweh album yesterday) I can not determine if it has a sad or not sound. The tracks express deeper layer thoughts and emotions that the listener has to feel (though yes, if we just try to determine where it belongs, then it tends to be more sad-sounding music bringing the opposite reaction - something like being amazed and wanting to listen to more of that :)) )
Not really. I usually don't like the more positive sounding music.
WOW! Thats a LOT! John would love the royalties as well 😂
I would think at least not happy-sounding 🌻
I knew it :D but at least I tried and asked :)
Hahhaha, maybe he would love the royalties too 😂
I know, I know, it is not happy-sounding, but either sad-sounding.
It is just a completely different approach where sad or happy sounding is not anymore in the foreground. :))
Once upon a time not too long ago, by far most people in the world would not regard an Album like Fernweh as music 😱
He/She: we can decide on an 'it' maybe?
How was it received then? When it was and what changes happened to be accepted ( who knows, maybe still not accepted by everyone)
metronome topic here? hahahahaha
saw the other comment , I know it had to go there :D
how was it received? depends on the person, but mostly as 'thats not music', 'no melodies', 'boomboomboom only', 'all tracks are the same', and more of that :)
oh, it is all but not just boombooom... and although the melody is not the most important, so much melody can be heard, for example in Shimmer, so beautiful one 😍
well, I also love Brace, a lot. And Fernweh. And Hexagon, and Neutron and There There and all!
The tracks are not any of the same, they are so different, but these things I dont have to tell to you. Maybe to those who still think it is not music. Send them to me :))
