Thats the very definition of minimalist style music. It lackes progression, its a big cadence throughout the entire piece. And for some odd reason, I like it :mrgreen:

Classical Music
(Sorry if I go a little off track here, but I think is a good place to post this) A kind of music that I have been listening to lately is minimalist music. I just find it very... constant. The basic defanation of it is... Minimalist music is an originally American genre of experimental or Downtown music named in the 1960s based mostly in consonant harmony, steady pulse (if not immobile drones), stasis and slow transformation, and often reiteration of musical phrases or smaller units such as figures, motifs, and cells. One of the most well know minimalist composers is John Adams. He is a amazing composer...a few of my favorite pieces are. Short ride in a fast machine: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LDhRQDwTDJE Another one is, On the Transmigration of Souls: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S6nrJ3ByzzE Both of these give the different style of minimalist music. The first is fast pace and dramatic. While the second is very slow and...almost depressing. However, this is one of my favorite styles of music. I also want to pose a question to you all if I may. There is a piece of music that was made by John Cage called 4'33" My music 101B teacher posed this question to us. Would you consider this song "music"? This song challenges the very definition; What you may consider music may not be to others. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHEZk6dSReI I though that this is music. Sure, there is no sound coming from the instruments but there is sounds that can be heard by the people listening to the piece. Their enviroment around them becomes the music. That is my opinion on it.

Today...
I guess. Skullcandy [bleep]ing sucks, I should have never bought a pair. Yeah. They are ok for a while, but eventually die out. Best pair Ive ever had were my ipod ear buds. I have 2 pairs of RCA ones that do really well. Today was just horrible. It was so cold, I had to stay around the kerosene heater. I want this winter to be over with now to be honest <_<

Classical Music
Classical music was music dated 1750 to about 1825. I love classical music, and music from 1600-1900 pretty much. One of my favorite pieces is from the romantic period, but most of the time is mistaken from classical is Gioachino Rossini : The Barber Of Seville - Overture http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OloXRhesab0 My favorite classical piece of music is The Four Seasons by Antonio Vivaldi. Amazing work of music. Easy to listen to.

Have you ever lost a friend?
I have lost friends on two fronts. Going from high school to college I lost a few, I still talk to them but It's the same as it used to be. I lost a great friend who I met at diabetes camp (Yes there IS a diabetes camp, don't believe me search "Camp Kno koma" in google) (also ive been a daibetic for going on 11 years now) The first time I met her we were LIT's (Leaders in traning) we were to old to be campers, but to young to be counselors so it was traning for us. She was a awesome friend, and she loved everyone. She was one of my best friends at camp that year. After camp, we kept in touch but slowly we driffted apart. The next year of camp I was told that she died in a car wreck. Her blood sugar dropped so low that she passed out while she was driving and hit a tree killing her instantly. It just was not the same after she died. I had my friends, but my best friend was taken from me...and I didn't even know about it till months later. It will pain me to go back to camp, but it's what she would want. RIP Brittany
