Introductions, introductions.
It's always hard being the new guy at the party. In the past, my time was spent lurking in the background trying to swig down copious amounts of booze down before the host realized no one knew who I was. If I were lucky, maybe I'd even sneak a block of cheese out of their fridge and secretly eat it in the bathroom before they'd notice it. This is essentially party crashing, vagrant edition.
Lots has changed since this period of my life, but that doesn't mean I've become any more eloquent during introductions. What do you say to people that you don't know? Hive is an interesting platform, and I think I can bring stories here that only I can tell because they come from my life. Sometimes it's better to learn about people through things they like. Music is integral to this. I believe you can learn a lot about a person by the music they listen to, so I thought what better way to introduce myself than expose you all to music that's made me who I am.
Not much seems so simple anymore wait, scratch that, how about, Nothing seems as simple as it used to be, yeah I like that better.
I remember being an adolescent running amok with my friends and inhaling the best times of life. Throughout my life, I have done a lot, ran my own skate shop at only 15, and played in a metal band that became one of the most listened to on Myspace, haha, it's funny how much we go through in what seems like a small amount of time, yet the world keeps spinning.
Trucking through the mud of my past, I picked up amazing music, music that rattled my bones and gave me a euphoric head change, something that makes me completely engulfed by waves of emotion, feeling every subtle note touching me like a cold summer breeze. Everyone finds little pieces that fit so well with them, no matter where you got them. Maybe you got them from an ex-girlfriend/boyfriend. Maybe you got them from a party you were at, picked them up by walking past a bar or a coffee shop or even heard them in a movie or video game. We grab these songs and run with them, making out like a bandit and holding them close to our hearts. We spill them with us everywhere we go, "music is a beautiful thing, man."
Below is a list of artists/bands that changed my life entirely, and I hope that some of these will shake your bones as they did with me.
