overview for Changeling

Music has always been heavily influenced by the physical spaces it occupies and the people who occupy that space. From classical symphonic music to EDM to stadium rock, all music relates to these spaces and adapts to the experience of their audiences. And the modern space is, disproportionately, headphones. And the modern audience is, disproportionately, a single person.

In other words, nearly all the modern music you listen to was created as an expression of capitalist atomization.

Okay but their intentions weren’t being translated in a State Department press release and published on NPR so how was I supposed to know about it?

Didn’t someone here yesterday say they wanted to move from India and refused to consider the US because it was “a war torn nation”?
