Indie music!

I have a new found appreciation for Indie music. As it turns out most of the time that i have been listening to music, i had no care to what genre they belonged to. I could really care less, who cares about what you want to label the crap that is pouring out of your beat up instrument! Only that the overflowing garbage has substance, individuality, and a steady rythmn. As long as it doesn't sound like someone is having a siezure on a violen im a fan of it.
I'm not sure if it is the time in my life where i appreciate and understand things more in depth or that im just bored as two old people fucking, that I really have found creating something new and going out on a limb to publish it or to just be heard, amazing.
That is where Indie music comes to light. The key subject here is that Indie music is really alot of independent artists just playing music because they love music! Yes, of course the key motivator of a musician is to become signed to a label or become incredibly famous but in certain cases most of Indie singer/songwriters only want people to enjoy their music and share the emotions that inspired them to write it and sing.
Creativity and soul is the blood they bleed on the stage of providence. Music usually starts off as a form of communication between the soul and the mind. To speak for the tongueless sweet emotion we feel inside. Different folks, different strokes! The emotion that we all feel inside is different and when you express these emotions into a beautiful artform like music, it becomes really inspiring for others around you. It almost creates and ambience or atmosphere of deep thought, free expression of ones true self, and sometimes a release of pain from the soul.
Alot of people bash Indie music, i am here to say that Indie music lives inside all of us. Wheter we know it or not, we are all songwriters inside, tell me that you have never made up your own little song while doing something alone. If your saying no you haven't, you are either a souless bastard child who should have been thrown off a cliff as along with the other ra'tard's, or a lying twat or you should just brush up on more, 'you' time and discover creativity within yourself besides following around a t.v set all day long!
I truly have alot of appreciation and respect for people who can come up with a great idea, then acting on it! Whether they succeed or fail doesnt matter, what matters is the intestinal fortitude in having the balls to come forward with what you have done and saying, "Fuck yeah, it's a piece of steaming shit but i did it and think it's fuckin awesome!" It's way easier to sit back, be moderate and laugh at those who fail but your always just going to be sitting there and eventually when you get up to go back to your mediocre, boring life your going to realize that there isnt anyone there to laugh at but yourself!
So get your ass in shape and be creative!
