(1) How do you find the music you listen to? every morning, someone/something slips a salmon-colored index card under my door; on that card is the name of an artist or group. i am to listen to the music produced by this artist or group exclusively and extensively for no more, no less than 72 hrs. that’s how i learn, with a smile. (2) What is your favorite way to enjoy music (live, alone, in the car, bath, work, etc.) live alone in the bath (3) What do you find exciting about the new music you listen to? sometimes i hear new music and i feel like it instills a healthy sense of competition. when it comes down to new music that i really listen to, it’s usually something that involves a friend. that aspect of it usually makes the listening experience exciting in that i’m able to have insight into this person’s creative life, or rather that i’m able to have a grasp of the “real life”, personal side of a musical work. if it sucks, however, then it’s still exciting in that i’m nervous about how to turn a bad reception into constructive criticism, or be given the creative opportunity to drum up a well-articulated lie. or i could think of new music in terms of hot 97 style radio newness, in which case it’s really excited music, which is pretty infectious so i’d have to say it’s the music itself that’s exciting! (4) What is it about the songs you’ve been listening to for years that resonates with you? hard to specify but perhaps it’s the element of personality. my first real musical memories are of the beatles, whether it’s my association of “we can work it out” with images of the mall my mom used to take us to and the taste of strawberry quik, or looking at the back cover of abbey road and imagining my very alive dad’s non-existent headstone. those associations are still with me almost twenty years later and i think that’s a testament to how strong that music is, but i’d venture to say that it’s because their music is infused with such strong personalities — it’s very potent. same with that of franco falsini’s — there’s just no mistaking one of his tunes, so there’s also no forgetting one of them either, in a way. i suppose as a musician, it’s inspiring to hear that someone can express so much of themselves in such an abstract and sometimes compact medium and also manage to not let that get in the way of someone else’s enjoyment.
