“The time I like listening to music most on headphones is, I have a game I play with my brother, he's a musician as well.And he sends me MIDI files of keyboard pieces. So, these are pieces where I just get a MIDI file; I don't know what instrument he was playing them on; I know nothing about his section of the sound of the piece, and then when I'm sitting on trains I do a lot of train travel I turn them into pieces of music. And I love to do that; it's my favorite hobby.” KnowsWellsPlayTurnsGamesSoundPiecesBrotherListeningMusicianSittingInstrumentsTrainMy FavoriteMy BrotherHobbiesSectionsListening To MusicFilesKeyboardsHeadphonesMidiFavorite Hobby Author:Brian Eno

“What is certain is that singing is not merely modulating a song by means of the voice: we sing and we celebrate the beauty that we can grow and live every day.

“Hearing your voice and your instrument kind of breathe in the room, it affects the way you perform the songs. For instance, if you have that reverb, you can give the songs a little more space. You can play them a little slower or you can play less of the guitar part and just let it open up, which I really love. It's so nice to play a listening room, because the audience feels a certain way too.” IfsWayGivingFeelsKindLittlesPlayCertainSongVoiceSpaceRoomsAudienceNiceListeningInstrumentsGuitarHearingBreatheInstanceHearing Your Voice Author:Denison Witmer
