Apollo 33
51 listens
4 ∞ reblogWhen i grow up, i want to be a musician
But see I, don’t know how to play an instrument
I mean if it was as easy as alchemy, the first ingredient would have to be James Yancey’s MPC
Subsequently followed by the rhymebooks my first rhythmic role models, Lonnie Lynn and Dante Smith
Fused with yoga and meditation sessions from Siddharata Guatama to have listeners feel the bliss
I’d have jazz syncopated percussion engage in dialogue with soulful funky bass lines
Add some of Jimi’s guitar, Mile’s trumpet, Premo’s scratches and i’d start to be getting close
Then multiplied by future life experience in europe, asia, south america and the west coast
Subtract out awkward first sexual experiences, painful immaterialized crushes, and 4 years of being an asshole in high school
Replace them falling in love at the playground on Munjoy, neo-tribal summer music festivals, earth-shattering revelations on psychedelic fungus, and the writings of Karl Marx and Khalil Gibran
