MY MUSIC

IT IS BACK

*ahem*

guess who finally retrieved all my old music backups off my old laptop after almost two full years without most of it

i now have over 8GB of music on my phone's SD card and need to sort through it

this is a struggle as you might imagine because my auditory processing is very limited (for instance in the animal crossings the only way i can really tell one kk slider song from another is if i have gyroids dancing to it, the visual representation of the beat actually helps me follow the sounds better) and i burn out very fast

so i am thinking. that i might write down my opinion of each song here on my blog. some of these i don't really even remember why i have them. so it's like, *basically* i am going for three categories: songs for phone (I don't do a lot in the way of playlists so this is songs I am generally happy to have come up on shuffle at any time), songs for computer (I like having them available but for instance I am at many times not in the mood for the Ballad of Ira Hayes), songs to delete (I am generally very hesitant to delete anything, especially because I know I may feel very differently about a song when I'm in a different mood, so this is hard and I usually wind up with folders of songs I don't really *want* but have not committed to deleting).

(And then VQ recommended I should check out Hozier and Orville Peck as being similar to artists I enjoy, and Leia sent me a bunch of Orville Peck links and I got distracted listening to those, so I'll cut this post here and probably continue later. So far my opinion there is Orville Peck has a very articulate voice that's easy to understand without having to read the lyrics along, which is an important starting point for me.)

music collection review, post 2

I have over 2100 music files in my VLC. Some of them are duplicates, but given that I got through significantly less than 20 in the previous post, we're going to be here a while. This is why I've never gotten all the way through reviewing my music collection.

I think I'm going to call it for the night, looking down the list isn't a ton of stuff I'm excited about for a ways and my earbuds are going to die soon. We're down to about 116 hours left, that's progress of a sort? Jesus. How do I have so much music.
