Enjoying music (on your own)



Music is not for the English

or French, 

or Italian, or anyone at all. 

Music is the simple or complex cluster of sounds that sound pleasing, acceptable to the ear. Needless say, almost every person appreciates good music and some have mistaken this appreciation as an avenue to create something. Some succeed at it, and others - a whole bunch - don't.

Music isn't just something you create on a whim, unless you're Labrinth 🐐


Seriously, creating music is difficult, complex and very stressful. But there's an easier part and it's called LISTENING - not like Wizkid FC and Tiwa Savage's gladiators sha. 

People oft imagine music to be "better" when the speakers are going like the drums of judgement day and uhh... no. Don't do that. Music inflated by volume is noise. [Unless it's metal, then KPK👍]

There are 5 simple ways to enjoy music when step 0 - good speakers/headphones - is achieved.

- First, music is best enjoyed in a peaceful environment, not a market. You know how it is. Home alone, vinyl playing, hips swaying - horribly infact - to the tune, murmuring lyrics or humming, doing chores, at the same time. Beautiful, peaceful shit.

- It's a fact that instrumentalists appreciate music more. So, learn to play an instrument. Then, one would appreciate the difficulty in creating sounds. It's not necessary but hey... why not?

- As therapy and to tackle present emotions. You know what album got you through the break up with Folake.



- Explore a wide range of genres. Listening to only one genre not only limits the experience, it also tires one out. Jump into the sea of no conclusion.

- Last, but not important: try to read song lyrics. Some music tend to pass a message, others are purely for Wizkid FC vibes.

We hope you find the right songs and sounds to better your day.

Who Would Win? Batman Vs Spiderman

Written By
Okay before I start I'd like you all to know I am not being partial in any way at all. I had this argument with my friend Andrea a couple of days back and now I feel like sharing on who I think would win,but I realised they are two perspective 1-choosing a winner based on accomplishment 2-choosing a winner based on powers or strengths 1- this perspective is basically saying "oh look at this let's check out both characters accomplishments",they both have taken down a large amount of enemies ranging from smart villains to dumb ones,they've both faced foes that are big and strong. So it's only reasonable to think Batman would win here,not by a long shot though because Spiderman is a force to be reckoned with. Batman has basically done more important things,he has defeated Superman severally,dodged darkseid's omega beams,outsmarted braniac,I mean the man is a bit fluent in kryptonian and he knows several martial art skills and he's just a human......

KOE NO KATACHI: A REVIEW?

Written By
  Koe no Katachi (A Silent Voice) is a 2016 Japanese [obviously] animated film written by Reiko Yoshida and directed by Naoko Yamada. The film is based on the manga of the same name, written by the great Yoshitoki Ōima. I just want to talk  type about this beautiful anime; don't think of this as some sort of review. P.S.: Little spoilers here and there. It starts off with Ishida - who'd later be the main male character - trying to commit suicide. And may I say... the musical build-up to the point where he is to jump off the bridge... SUBARASHI! It's utterly gorgeous [for the lack of a befitting word]. It's not over done with sad sounds or large synths. It's almost inaudible, gentle; it's the kind of music that would play in the head of a sad or depressed person. And it is explained in detail - his dilemma.  The movie's title makes sense because of Nishimiya. She's deaf. In middle school, she's a victim of bullying from her classmates in form of ignor...

Rebuilding The DCEU

Written By
      Hello again,it is....Barney the DC fan who loved BVS and MOS but didn't enjoy JL. A friend of mine told me I stopped talking about DC and he was right. You're probably wondering about why  I stopped talking about DC. Well the answer is simple as ABC,THEY MESSED UP!. Technically it was warner bros who messed up but still justice league is  a movie under the DC brand so....it's a DC film.    Justice League was meant to be the finale to a beautiful and well layered/deep series of movies. It was meant to be the proper end of Superman's journey from Man of Steel but instead it became a short,eye candy based pop corn flick with little or no rewatch value at all. I know a lot of people reading this might not agree with me because they hated the prior DC films for being too "dark" and "depressing" and I totally get their point of view. One of the reasons why I didn't like Justice League was because after I watched it I was like "...

The Boys

Written By
   The Boys is a new Amazon prime television series that asks and brilliantly answers the question "how would superheroes be in the real world?".   In this version of modern America, a lot of people have super human abilities and are known as Supes. Supes are generally loved and respected, thanks to the superhero team "The Seven".  The first moments of the show starts of as a parody of stereotypical superhero films and shows. At first glance, the heroes just seem to be a parody of the justice league. With Wonder woman being Maeve, Flash being A-Train,Aquaman being the Deep, Batman being Noir, I'm not exactly sure who Translucent, a retired member I can't remember  and Superman being Homelander. We see how the general public loves and idolize these heroes. But, the thing about Superheroes being in the real world is, they come with collateral damage.  Hughie an ordinary guy and massive fan of the seven gets his life turned upside down wh...
