RE: What does Music mean to you?
Hi @ladyq Thank you for this beautiful post. We are all the same when it come to music, it is part of our identity. In my case I grow in France and was really into rock music (like your dad) I play guitar and only play for my personal pleasure, when improvising on some back track it give me chills and i love it. It a kind of medicine, it is well known today that frequency of notes have curative effect on different organ of our body. About 18 years ago now i have move to Thailand and travel a lot and really appreciate traditional music from most part of the world specially instrumental music. On the opposite there is music like techno where i don't feel any good may be because i am a musician and i feel it missing the touch of an instrument, but it is one of the only kind of music i have problem to listen. Peace and happiness to all on a succession of beautiful melody.
First off, that's totally awesome you play guitar. How long have you been playing for & what type of guitar do you own? I have someone who plays in the house so I know quite a bit about pedals, looping, & ways to achieve certain guitar effects. However it must be hard to improvise, you know I see people like slash or steve vai improvise and it blows my mind! Also music does have certain frequencies that do in fact have a way to cure our souls. Through the way a persons voice reaches certain pitches to things like binaural waves added to instrumental music. Thats actually what I use to sleep, any type of music that has binaural waves in it.
In regards to other types of music such as techno and people like DJ's, I just think it all about how you look at the way they're actually putting things together. A great DJ will have a good ear to produce the music he does & vice versa with anyone who produces techno. Although I will admit these genres are usually my least favorite too.
Yes i love to play guitar and play it for some 36 years. I own Ibanez JS model and also one Ibanez Ergodyne with a luthite body a synthetic material used by Satriani. Satriani is my hero but sure i also love Vai and Andy Timmons, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Eric Johnson and many other. I can see we are really close about our thinking of music. I really appreciate to know you let's be freind. Here is a link to an excerpt of Satriani concert here in Bangkok in February 2017
