I like dissonant chords.
Of course I listen to not only music that has dissonance, but also rock, pop, electric and etc.
I don't know why but I get excited when the dissonant chord appears in harmony. I really like orchestra tuning sound before they start to play. I feel tense and peculiar peacefulness simultaneously. Three weeks ago, the concert I saw had accordion and a traditional Korean reed instrument. The traditional instrument played sine-wave-like high-pitched and hard tune. The tune was mixed with accordion sound into dissonance, it made the atmosphere tense. I didn't think an acoustic instrument would make such a sine-wave-like sound. I believe it's awesome but I usually have hard time to explaining it at the spur of the moment. I wrote this post to explain better.
Toronto's library has a wide variety of genre
of CDs. I borrowed some Godspeed You! Black Emperor CDs I haven't listened
to. It's understandable that Godspeed is a Canadian band, but I can't believe
that a library has the genres "ambient" "avant-garde" and
"improvisation". That's too excellent!
Recently, I've borrowed CDs impromptu among
the avant-garde genre. I found some cool musician I wouldn't have known, such
as Julia Kent, Kardemimmit, A Sunny Day In Glasgow, Tim hecker, and so on..
Thanks, Twist, Skiesoforange
