your url shows what you want most in life
I know that when people on here say stuff like "idk anything about guitars it just sounds cool" it's all jokes but if you are genuinely interested in music as an art form and not just a form of entertainment I am BEGGING you to work on your active listening skills because I promise it will make your experience a million times better and you will have an even deeper appreciation for the music you enjoy
Active listening (as described by my first semester tech teacher) is the practice of listening to music as a product of musicians- paying specific attention to what each instrument is doing, the ways in which it sounds different to other musicians and songs, the arrangement of the song, the effects on each track, etc. And you don't have to know all of the technical terms to do that! "It sounds like an old video game soundtrack played on vinyl" is just as much of a good description as "it uses a bitcrunch and a crackle distortion". It's a skill that takes time to build up, and you might find it hard at first to totally block out the vocal and listen to each track, but it eventually becomes second nature and will absolutely enhance how you listen to music.
mmm. so i went to alfamart today and i summoned my best adult voice to the cashier.
cashier: "ini aja kak? :)"
me: "tambah esse orange" (pronounced oreinj. accidentally very western)
cashier: esse oreinj... <- (somehow ngikutin the accent) yang ini kak?
me: yeah (sangat english)
Best I can do is 2/3
you know what, that's okay. I know it can be hard to brush your teeth every day, or drink a glass of water. there's a big misconception that all of these tasks we do for maintenance are "easy", but that just isn't the case. taking care of your body is hard work, and I'm proud of you for any amount of self care that you're able to do.
