Music is overrated

[Red Shambhala]

I've always listened to a lot of music, read a lot about music ... but lately I think it's overrated. Lately it feels to me as if there are are esentially two types of music:

1. intense, emotional music that moves me and shakes me emotionally;
2. dull and boring music that doesn't do anything.

Both of these options are not attractive. Since my emotions are like a ship, tossed around the waves by a storm, I don't want anything that makes me even more emotional and fragile. But something boring and dull I also don'T want.

Hence, I prefer listening to podcasts or background noises (noises of rain, waves, fire etc) these days.

Also, the worst thing about music are all these fucking hipsters with their obscure shit bands and their fucking pride in knowing music that is more obscure than the music you know.

I listen to different genres of music in different situations.

Lo-fi,Hiphop beats and other osts serve as a good background music if you want to relax / LDAR. It makes me even more calm and I can control my emotions. Some Lo-fi songs can me feel really emotional though.

I listen to the other type of music whenever I feel like it

Music is a good cope for me, I also can't lift without it, it hypes and gives me good feels

I feel like music is the only thing keeping me sane
