So sick
of people saying music is changing. Music has always been brilliant. Obviously, it’s your former terrible taste that has changed. Since I was in high school I have listened to music that gave me goosebumps and made me drunk with love. Music is not getting better, it’s just more accessible. Can we stop speaking in generalizations and falsehoods.
Here’s a piece of musical magic. enjoy
"Majoring in literature or art history rather than economics or biology, never mind hotel management or marketing, suggests a certain privileged indifference to material concerns (even when this rests on actual indifference instead of piles of money). And if you’ve gone into serious debt by attending college, afterward you’ll have noted that it’s the do-gooding NGO or the progressive magazine that expects you to take an unpaid internship, and the publishing house or academic department that offers you a pittance. Goldman Sachs and Google, which pay real salaries, seem in this sense less addicted to exploitation, and more interested in income redistribution, than the Nation or the Yale English department. And this is to speak as if everybody went to college, which of course they don’t."
"Forget the books you want to write. Think only of the book you are writing."
