#sheet music is like a secret code and somehow also feels like math

On the one hand, Paleolithic me would have had such an easier time making music. She would get a flute, have an older person explain a bit, and then just go to town on that thing. She wouldn’t restrict herself to ceremonies, she would be out there being super autistic with it for hours. No need to read sheet music, the one thing that has made me fail at learning music every time
On the other hand, she would never have gotten to hear a sick guitar riffs and synth
Being able to experience those things are the consolation i have to not being able to play music in this lifetime, and honestly it might be worth it
#emma posts#this is ignoring everything else that Paleolithic me would have to deal with that i would not want to live through#and many other modern creations i would be missing#this is only a music post#this is why I’ve been in the top 0.01% of listeners of my fave band#for two or three years now#I’ll be having some emotional spiral and when I put the music on I just kinda melt#sheet music is like a secret code and somehow also feels like math#and I’m too slow at reading it to actually play much#the beginner books will have the letter inside the notes and I could actually read those#but it’s been so long and I’ve forgotten#and my voice is out of practice and I sound like a mess#I’m super autistic about music and yet also forgor all the rules to it#when you’re watching a video set in the Paleolithic and it has a sound track?#that’s just my old incarnation going crazy with it
