“There are houses in certain provincial towns whose aspect inspires melancholy, akin to that called forth by sombre cloisters, dreary moorlands, or the desolation of ruins. Within these houses there is, perhaps, the silence of the cloister, the barrenness of moors, the skeleton of ruins; life and movement are so stagnant there that a stranger might think them uninhabited, were it not that he encounters suddenly the pale, cold glance of a motionless person, whose half-monastic face peers beyond the window-casing at the sound of an unaccustomed step.” ThinkingPersonsBookMightFacesCertainHouseSoundHalfSilenceStepsMovementInspireColdAspectWindowTownsStrangerRuinsEncountersMelancholyPalePeersGlancesSkeletonsDrearyDesolationStagnantMoors Book:Eugenie Grandet Source: Eugenie Grandet
“Feelings aroused by the touch of someones hand, the sound of music, the smell of a flower, a beautiful sunset, a work of art, love, laughter, hope and faith - all work on both the unconscious and the conscious aspects of the self, and they have physiological consequences as well.” WellsArtSelfFeelingsHandsBeautifulSoundFlowerLaughterConsciousConsequenceAspectSmellUnconsciousSunsetWorks Of ArtHope And FaithPhysiologicalSound Of MusicBeautiful SunsetLove LaughterArt Love Author:Bernie Siegel
“Basically, there were three aspects of dub that influenced dubstep. The most important was playing the instrumental versions of vocal garage tracks, which was a little like what dub was to reggae - the instrumental of a full vocal.The second was dub as a methodology, which, for me, is apparent in all dance music: manipulating sound to create impossible sonic spaces using reverb, echo and such. The third is the influence of the genre called dub. (It became a cliché actually, through sampling old Jamaican films and soundtracks, and adding vocal samples.)” LittlesImportantFilmThreeSoundSpaceImpossibleInfluenceAspectThirdsTrackVersionsGenreEchoesVocalGarageSampleSoundtracksReggaeMethodologyDance MusicJamaicansSamplingDubstep Author:Kode9
