WHAT DOES MUSIC MEAN TO ME ?


Music has always been an important aspect of my life and even more so in recent years as I have expanded my music taste and discovered a love for genres that I never initially found appealing. Music has the power to change or enhance a particular mood an individual may be feeling, I personally feel as if music can also be inspirational in terms of creativity, for me this down to the combination of subject matter, lyrical flow and the instrumental beat involved. Having grown up in an era where the uprise of continuous sampled pop was prominent, I decided to delve into much of the music my Dad was listening to growing up, this knowledge combined with music often heard at the skatepark environment I immersed myself in left me with artists in genres of hip hop, rap, punk and rock. My taste in music quickly broadening and developing as festival culture allowed me to appreciate the sound of drum and bass and house music on a first hand basis, my recognition of many artists I hadn't yet heard of also catalysed by their appearances at various festivals. Even though I often rotate the music I listen to everyday both old school and modern hip hop seem to be where its at for me personally , the lyrical flow accompanied by a jazzy beat being a sound that I love.
