Some music is so unpretentious and honest and unhindered by too much direction or confused by a lack thereof that, as a player, one is able to focus in a way that simutaneously achieves a singular vision while being informed by the whims of all demons, those of one's own mind and those of fellow accomplices, which is to say an orgy of ideas, a novel of influences, an aged bottle of informants all flying in spontaneously in an attempt to either bring you to orgasm or kill you in the process and, indeed, there is little difference, but that is only a thought that comes to me later, never in the moment because in the moment there is little thinking being done at all as if the mind is separate from the being & the present moment is all there is and in fact, its true, the present moment IS all there is and if you can make heads or tails of this run/on sentence then you should listen to this music.
