Post Content: Music IS Alive! In fact, Alive is really the only time that MUSIC really IS. Whether pounding the water to get that deep, resonant drum, or pulling a cello bow across an amplified, distorted, tortured guitar string, or singing in massed harmony and then dissonance to create the excitation of ecstasy, MUSIC Alive – is!
And the people involved in living sound LOVE to talk about it . . . mostly. And when they don’t, WE will.
We’re not here to DEFINE what music is: that’s what listeners are for. We can curate the numberless possibilities, with the help of experts and readers, and showcase the sampled buffet here. The rest is up to you.
