I was reminiscing over the past year in the Garden; thinking specifically about the influences (my personal influences, actually) when it came to all of the elements that were the inspiration to everything I do here. I tend to dwell on the visual because that is how I express myself. But when I am moved to share a creative vision, its precursors are varied. It’s never just what I see. It could be the smell of incense, the light touch of a warm hand or the taste of an intoxicating drink. All of these are hard to portray in this environment but there is one sensual experience that gets too little attention here.
Music.
We talk about it a little but not enough for my taste. My particular choices are rather old school compared to some of you and I’ve embedded a playlist of some of my choices to the site. Just something to play with. BUT if you want me to add some tunes to it that aren’t there let me know I will do it.
Right now I pulled one of the tunes that I heard online right after we launched the site last year. I came across this video recently on YouTube and, like I said before, it got me reminiscing. Its Anthony David ft. Algebra and Phonte and the song is 4evermore. I think its supposed to be on a release coming out in October? Does anybody know?
Anthony David could sing me to sleep for an eternity 🙂
