  1. I guess you could describe the attitude as akin to missionaries of music. We find things that aren't commonly found, kind of like artifacts, and we find these things to be important. We worship them. All I am suggesting is you promote those things, listen to everything, but I think back to when someone suggested Aphex Twin and had that not occurred, idk, I would hope that someone would mentioned it eventually. Point is people have not found everything about who they are, if one can ever, so extending yourself in its most honest form is an act of appreciation. We are all unique at some level and it just takes the right chaos to spark that into consciousness.

  2. I think there is a distinguishable difference between Art and Entertainment. I used to think the whole thing was subjective, but I think from a broader vantage point there is a difference between music that offers individual emotional depth/uniqueness and music that is a structural and emotional extension of corporate advertising... a repackaging of a proven marketable exp<b></b>ression. I am not suggesting that this exp<b></b>ression is soulless, it definitely resonates with people. But it is through a deeper exp<b></b>ression and exploration of oneself where we see most of the innovation, at least since the 1980s I'd say. And I find that to be of more significance than music that is fun to dance to. Though I don't suggest vocally hating on other peoples music at all. That is foolish. I am simply suggesting that we continue to promote our ideals, not because we are ego maniacs, but because it is spreading knowledge. And anyone who is too closed minded to listen to your suggestion because it is abstract, should be questioned because that seems unfriendly and illogical. I feel I try to be open minded, and at the least I am constantly somewhat aware of popular music due to the abundance of advertising that markets it. Something music of WATMM doesn't really have.

  3. Well said and I would add that the trick to this cultural problem we face is not minding it hurts. Celebrate, discuss, and focus on the good stuff... For attention is their food source, good or bad that they seek to consume. Their celebration revolves around submission to normality and those that don't fall in line must only be that way because they are angry. We must love only.
