field day related epiphany
Category: Music
a new year brings with it some new musical rants. so busted out majorly at field day on the first of january and it was awesome! and raises some questions on my U2 related musical epiphany but i think i figured it out. dance/house music is just sooo post-modern it's all about instantaneous pleasure of the body rather than anything with greater substance and as such doesn't tend to last long before getting overplayed and losing it's significance it's the reason why you're ipod needs constant updating as as soon as one song is good another will replace it.
Perhaps i only enjoyed field day coz i got wasted spent all my money and was with an awesome group of people rather than the music i saw (presets in the rain was wicked good though) apparently kaskade played? if the music had more substance would i have enjoyed the festival for its musical merits just as much as the company i was in? time will tell will see if in thirty years i'll be listening to the presets greatest hits III and going to a field day renunion tour starring a 60 year old mylo. doesn't mean house is shit music it's awesome for the moment but i think it might lack the identity and substance to be retained for years to come. whatever that was pretty heavy i need to go back to uni!
