#MusicMonday in your face with another fantastic tune from Nathan Broaddus, aka Evenings. This one’s called Still Young and will be off of North Dorm. He’s only been producing for about a year, but MAN are these tunes good! Keep your ears peeled for more!

Evenings // Friend

Man, I am pretty in love with this tune by Evenings. Some of that… fall into a deep kiss, kind of music. The percussion on this track is so killer! It’s all so organic and not at the same time… haunting vocal… staccato beeps and clicks that warrant a sigh of ahhhh!

If I had a heart, this is what it’d sound like.

Loneliness is the human condition. Cultivate it. The way it tunnels into you allows your soul room to grow. Never expect to outgrow loneliness. Never hope to find people who will understand you, someone to fill that space. And intelligent, sensitive person is the exception, the very great exception. If you expect to find people who will understand you, you will grow murderous with disappointment. The best you’ll ever do is to understand yourself, know what it is that you want.

Apologies for any massive mix errors; I did it all in one go live. Need the practice. This will probably be the longest mixtape I’ll ever put together… I really love all the songs in it and wanted to share them with you… so… here:

The German expression Einmal ist keinmal encapsulates “lightness” so: “what happens but once, might as well not have happened at all. If we have only one life to live, we might as well not have lived at all”; if concluded logically, life ultimately is insignificant. Hence, because decisions do not matter, they are rendered light,because they do not cause personal suffering. Yet, simultaneously, the insignificance of decisions — our being — causes us great suffering, perceived as the unbearable lightness of being consequent to one’s awareness of life occurring once and never again; thus no one person’s actions are universally significant. This insignificance is existentially unbearable when it is considered that people want their lives to have transcendent meaning. - Wiki on The Unbearable Lightness of Being
