I don't know what it is - age related techo-ineptitude - what? But I can't make Spotify work. I mean literally just work. It's weird. And I don't know if I want it to. I listen to almost 90% real DJ'd radio in one form or another.

glad you're not hurt, as well!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:29pm
Rich in Washington:

The first NEW 7" record I ever bought (maybe other than those Scholastic records you'd buy through school) was The Residents Satisfaction. I didn't even know what the Residents sounded like. I just blindly mail ordered it because it sounded cool in writing.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:30pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

h now. First record ever bought ... single was Procol Harum "Pandora's Box". Album was ... Wings "Venus and Mars". But my mum gave me a copy of Herb Alpert's Greatest Hits when I was 4 which she won on the radio. Little did she know ;-)
  4:30pm
Martinibomb:

@Rich daaaamn! What was that like hearing them as a kid??
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:31pm
Jan Turkenburg:

Keith West - Excerpt from a Teenage Opera, I meant of course. But a lot of music from 1967, when I was three, still has something magical for me.

Herb Alpert was absolutely everywhere for a while there.

yes GG, explains a lot of our common taste, I suppose
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:32pm
Rich in Washington:

It was incredibly mindblowing for me. I didn't immediately like it, but was sort of horrified by how weird it was and then I was hooked. It also made me realize that I have really peculiar music tastes which my friends did not understand at all.
  4:33pm
Martinibomb:

I loved Herb Alpert too.. the lady from Whipped Cream lives close to Portland area
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:33pm
Rich in Washington:

The B-side of that record sounded like a demented children's record from another planet. I just couldn't believe it was real.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:33pm
Otis Fodder:

First record I bought with my own money (mowing lawns to flyering cars) was Bowie's Let's Dance on 7" at 14. Remember that well going to the record shop in San Diego. Before that it's a blur with parents helping to buy or gifts or whatnot... but def in the late 70s I wanted very Blondie, ELO, Led Zep, and Moodies release +++. Kids records from Banana Splits to Roosevelt Franklin were before thanks to my cool parents.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:34pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

Roosevelt Franklin. That must have been sampled :-)

i know that outcast feeling, Rich. my junior high buddies were real deep into Bowie & i loved Bessie Smith :-D

A lot of my earliest 'album' buying experiences were the $5.99 bin at Musicland (later subsumed by Sam Goody), but on cassette, because I didn't own a record player until my sister gave me her old one when I was probably 15 or so.
Avatar 4:41pm
Linda Lee:

here's what i'm wondering about: since our first conscious sense is hearing, does music touch us more deeply than other media? apparently we're hearing and responding to sound vibrations in utero.

@Rich yeah same here Musicland in the mall hahah

Martinibomb:

@LL I just saw a study that shows even if you get dementia you still remember music. I think it's part of the brain where language is
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:43pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

@Linda Lee - there's beena an article doing the rounds on facebook where studies suggest that sound and music are things that never leave us even in cases id dementia or such. So ... I think so. :-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:44pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

@MB - snap!!! You posted it but then I saw a bunch of people posting it too. :-)
  4:44pm
Martinibomb:

As far as I'm aware it's the only theme park with it's own original music and pays no royalties to anyone plus his daughter made all the music.. just crazy. She later went to University of Oregon and got a degree in music

i've seen that story too ~ along with a new study concerning the 'hearing' of plants! specifically flowers. they 'hear' an insect buzzing & sweeten their nectar production in response!

I've read that the first two years for babies kinda lock on music in the way they do language and thats when they can develop that perfect pitch ear.

Martinibomb:

@GG haha yeah!! Lol
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:52pm

@Jan - I didn't know that! I guess that's why babies act like they're on acid. In a good way. :-) Like they're REALLY into everything without filters etc :-)

I have a slight case of synasthesia, which i think is why ive always preferred strange and unusual music - its more colorful. Too much normal music is like drabs shades of beige everywhere.

People with perfect pitch ears, always have some form of synesthesia to begin with

Mr Fab. can you also literally get sick from boring music?

99.9% of the time it's really cool - but sometimes I hear things that make me want to throw up. Literally. Or colours that make me gag. :-)

Hmm I've always had an ear for strange sounds too.. I wonder? I think it worried my parents a little

I totally get that, Mr. Fab. That sense of "something extra" to certain sounds :-)

Interesting question Jan, i have to give that some real thought!

Linda Lee:

ah. definitely a down side.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:56pm
Jan Turkenburg:

I know a professional jazz musician that really had to leave a Mozart symfony concert, because he really had to throw up. It was the simplicity of the harmonic structure he said
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:56pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

Or like Mr. Fab said - sometimes sounds are just bland.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:58pm
Jan Turkenburg:

'monotony' I should have said
  4:58pm
Martinibomb:

@Jan I could see that. After Bach there was a march toward discord especially in the 20th century and jazz chords are more complex than what they used in early classical
  4:59pm
Martinibomb:

people didn't like discord.. twas the Devils Music
Avatar 4:59pm
Linda Lee:

Jan, i'm fairly sure i've got close to perfect pitch ~ much music or vocal work is just unlistenable to me, flat or sharp (mainly flat)~ & others think it's perfectly fine & enjoyable! i don't believe i have synesthesia though. music is strongly visual, but not halllucinatory... ?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:00pm
Jan Turkenburg:

MB and apart from the last 6 and 2 of the first, Mozart Symfonies are insanely boring

or maybe we're not talking hallucination, exactly?
Avatar 5:00pm
Mr Fab:

I have that with some things like acoustic guitar folk type stuff. Its like being in an art museum where everything is looks...muddy. kinda hard to explain. But thats why no Dylan for me!

Jan Turkenburg:

That's interesting LL!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:02pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

LL - it's ... hmmm ... let me think. Like as I'm listening I'm salivating because I can taste the sounds in my mouth. You know like when you smell dinner cooking? It's like that. :-)
Avatar 5:02pm
Linda Lee:

i find listening to Marianne Faithfull sing, fairly difficult.
  5:02pm
Martinibomb:

@Jan I'd agree. I suspect he probably liked more discord but there's no way the public would have been ready for that. They like those sweet sweet tri-chords
Avatar 5:03pm
Linda Lee:

that's an amazing way to describe it, GG. i get it!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:03pm
Jan Turkenburg:

Maybe not hallucination, LL, but the scientific article I'm remembering talked about pitch being seemingly connected to another sense somehow.
Avatar 5:03pm
Linda Lee:

i should do some reading on it! never have, really
Avatar 5:04pm
Linda Lee:

no, it's clearly not hallucinatory ~ just joined sensory experience

But I also remember it was hard to research this, becuase all the different manifastations of the phenomenom and also most people not even being aware themselves that this is something special.

Linda Lee:

right. not an easy thing to compare with others'
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:06pm
Jan Turkenburg:

yes! divisions are blurred! That's putting it right I believe
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:06pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

I guess it's hard to quantify too because like you say, different people have different experiences of it and different manifestations too.

But I remember that one out of 30 children should have it and so in each class I had... but I never found a genuine case :-)

DJ GeorgyGirl:

I was just recommended a group called "Gallimaufry" which apparently means "a confused jumble or medley of things" :-) I didn't know that :-)

@Jan I've always been a little envious of your music work with kids it sounds super fun

One out of 30 children? Wow!

i'm also hearing 'Charlie Chan' as 'Jolly Chairs'
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:10pm
Jan Turkenburg:

it can also be very demanding, MB

Martinibomb:

Gallimaufry is a super interesting word. Never seen/heard it before now

Wish i'd had you as a music teacher when I was a kid

It was a picture of Judy garland as Dorothy but with the Dark Side rainbow prism thing coming out of her head so I clicked on it an that's when I saw the definition. :-)

Martinibomb:

gawd this record has some warble..I think I need a new copy
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:12pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

Agreed MB - if I'd had Jan as a music teacher maybe I wouldn't be so shit at playing music! :-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:13pm
Jan Turkenburg:

thank you, MB I must admit I'm also proud of what I've accomplished in this town
  5:14pm
Martinibomb:

I wish I'd had a good teacher when I was a kid it was a real struggle. I think that's why I went toward sampling for so long
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:14pm
Jan Turkenburg:

even though it burned me out in the end, but there where other factors to that... which I rather dicuss elsewhere ;)
  5:15pm
Martinibomb:

@Jan I'm sure it's the politics part of education that bummed you out. That's what usually gets people
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:15pm
Jan Turkenburg:

MB, I'm a very lazy musician myself. I love working with samples.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:16pm
Jan Turkenburg:

@MB That too... certainly!
  5:17pm
Martinibomb:

The cool thing now that I understand music I can do really cool stuff with samples that I never could before especially with the new samplers that allow you to stretch so you can make progressions etc..

Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:23pm
