Do we listen 2 music?

Or do we listen 2 Music?

Music as a lifestyle, Music as a culture

Music as a sense of identity, as it pertains to

How we present ourselves in a society

I am a punk – I listen to Music

I am a hip-hop – I listen to Music

I listen to Music

You aren’t really listening

to music. To an arrangement – of notes and chords

of beats or bass or

something created in a studio. Or something slapped

together in a garage, ,

or constructed carefully

on an acoustic at a party, then fundamentally failing to

get laid.
