I've got two mixes due for au_bigbang so all my fic reading plans are put on hold. Plus lgbtfest is posting and I need to go through more of those, but all fic reading plans are put on hold until I send in those mixes that are due
Tuesday (omg, why do I wait so long for these kind of things!). The good news is that I did think of a post for three weeks; it's going to be about mixing. See, very original :)
(and I'm behind on recs, and I'm tempted just to post the ones I read for apocabigbang and call it done)
(and I'm pissed because it's taking super long for my mom's bday gift to come in the mail, and yes I know that 5-10 business days means what it says but usually my stuff ships faster than that.)
& this post isn't really just about me whining about things of my own design, so links:
This post on
Why Music Really Matters basically sums up my feelings on meaning in music (and indirectly leads to why I'm not prone to pissing on someone else about their preferences when it comes to music or things like books, movies, etc; but that's another post)
For a “collective people across the music industry, including artists, retailers, songwriters, labels and managers,” it really shouldn’t take a writer—like me—to remind you, that it’s not about you anymore. It’s about each and every one of us. It’s about the moment when a song intersected with our lives and we realized for one moment—that one very special moment—that someone else, out there, feels the way we do, that we are not alone, nor wicked in our ways, and that we may not all bleed the same blood, but at very least, we do bleed.
Think about a moment in your life, where time stopped and the music you were listening to came to mean something real. Suddenly, you could see the beauty beneath the scars and the lyrics became the bloodstained poetry on your heart. That’s music. That’s why it matters—to people.

post pretty much sums up my thoughts on the revamped SYTYCD

doctor_jasley It has space, zombies, and amnesia which are just a few of my favorite things. It's gen and a fun read. Oh and it was written for me b/c I am that lucky sometimes.
