People can be so go-go-go they don’t have time to think and reflect. Music is similar, it’s a source of constant distraction for the mind. It’s even more prominent in contemporary music. When listening to pieces more than a thousand years old and you’ll sometimes find works that build meaning into the silence as masterfully as artists compose paintings with negative space. But now it seems any gap must be filled with a beat. Y’all can stay wrapped up in your noise-noise-noise. But do excuse me for being comfortable in the silence of my own thoughts.

yes! i still have the songs i listened to last week echoing around in my head. i foind out i have some kind of memory based perfect pitch, as when i put thr recording on again it's in the same key i was playing it in my head in. i can literally hum every note of it, despite having heard it twice about a week ago, because it was poignant and stuck with me.

silence is golden and allows for reflection upon what we heard
