Alright, came back for round 2. Made it about 4 songs in this time lol
Marvin Gaye - Let's get it on, Sexual Healing, Got to give it up: Really starting to notice how great the imaging is on these. In Let's get it on you hear Marvin almost whispering in your right ear throughout the song while lots is happening to the left with his main vocals in the center. I thought my right ear up was bunk for a second but it's just how it's placed. Tons of instruments bopping around in Sexual Healing, and Got to give it up was a jam. You can really feel how "groovy" Marvin's music is. I've heard these songs hundreds of times but never felt so intricately how the music affects you
Halsey's Without Me: Yup, here we go again. I've always enjoyed melancholic music but it has NEVER hit me this hard. I started to cry again. I really noticed with this one how the music surrounds you, it's not just center left/right but it blends together to form emotion through sound. There was one part right before the chorus kicked in where I heard one of her vocals delay in the background and it just set me off.
My musical journey has always been DETAIL DETAIL DETAIL but this taps into something else. Whenever I sat down to write a piano piece I knew I had something going by the emotion I felt as it came together. It's always been this diffuse thing but hearing these headphones it has somehow made me realize that I was missing a connection to music on a deeper level.
I feel like I'm in the middle of a psychadelic revelation (and I'm sober). I've just confirmed my decision to pick up a Lyr+ and I've been searching for a Bifrost 2/64 the last week. I'm super happy with this set up but after hearing what I did today I'm going to squeeze out that last bit of goodness I want and just enjoy the music.
