When you're talking about your own music every day, listening to bands, going to festivals, you can kind of lose sight of your initial connection with music. Instrumental music - especially jazz - helps me refocus.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Playing and listening to music gives you a sense of fulfilment because you have to put everything in you at its disposal.
When I'm doing just music all the time, it can get really overwhelming. It's always challenging to switch it up a bit. And just because you're a musician, it doesn't mean that music is your only creative outlet.
When I perform, I like to immerse myself in the music, and I just try to get off on the diversity of music.
I personally do not listen to a lot of music. It helps keep my mind free. I don't want to sound like someone else from the get-go. I want to express myself and the world in my head.
Music is what I do naturally.
Playing music is a lifetime's work. And if you want to carry on with it, you have to try to better yourself. You have to see where the music can take you.
I honestly don't listen to a lot of music - I spend so much time working at my own music.
When I listen to music - I don't particularly do it for fun all that much. It's not a big part of my life, and I'm not really on top of what's happening in the world of music in the way I was when I was a teenager.
Playing music is a beautiful thing. But listening to music is just as great.
I've always connected with music. Life's not always what you see; it's what going on in your head. Music is what comes out of your subconscious.
