Last few days it’s been “Focus” on Apple Music during work.

Not normally my bag but the exposure to different and/or simpler melodies and grooves is definitely giving me new ideas.

Something I read recently that really struck me as a learning experience for me was the notion that when you have a hobby or passion you can grow it in different ways other than actively doing or performing it. For example, instead of watching a movie you read about movies. Or, instead of playing music, you listen to it.

Sound simple and intuitive I know! But I had never really thought specifically of listening to music as a secondary passive way to improve my playing and/or creativity. Probably everyone knew this as obvious and I’m just dense.

Either way, I love the idea and it feels exciting in an odd way. Now I recognize it when I do it and get more from it I think.

Nice! This reminds me a lot of Faith No More which I love!

That’s an interesting comparison but I can hear it now that I listened to one of their songs - I’ve never been a fan of them but they do have a sound that I can also hear in BTBAM. For me they’re just BTBAM, their early sound was hardcore and they eventually gravitated towards prog metal

Sounds a bit like a modernized Yes 90125.

This came out like a week ago. First listen was a bit underwhelming but on 2nd and 3rd it's a solid lead off single. If nothing else; it doesn't set the bar insanely high. It is a nice little ease you back into the swing of things. Hopefully the rest of the album picks up on the grander stuff from the last album. Digging it either way \m/

Killer video. Blade Runneresque.
