I just began reading record-producer-turned-neuroscientist
Daniel Levitin's
The World in Six Songs: How the Musical Brain Created Human Nature. Thus far, it's an interesting read; he theorizes that over the course of human history, six kinds of songs (those of friendship, love, joy, knowledge, religion, and comfort) have shaped the ways in which we live - how we perceive ourselves and others, establish and implement our artistic needs, and ultimately define ourselves as a species.
More to come on that later.
In the meantime, here's another electronic composition for you all to enjoy:
It is influenced by fast paced and experimental electronica (i.e. Aphex Twin),
Radio Lab podcasts, and math rock. (Dedicated to
Capturing Virga and Monday night bowling)
