About A Year of Attunement

The other day I was talking with my younger sister and she asked me “What kind of music do you listen to?” To put our conversation briefly, I didn’t know how to answer the question. Sure I have a handful of artists that I go back to from time to time, but pinning down that specific sound that defines “my music” has become a challenge. In every description of my musical taste that I’ve tried to offer up, there is some contradiction in the description. To that end, I’ve decided to start this new series: “A Year of Attunement”.

Every post in the Attunement will be about a specific song. The song could be a classic, a recent hit, an earworm that burrows itself into all my playlists that week, etc. I’ll provide all the front end info of the song (who performs it, what album it’s on, how long it is, etc.) as well as a blurb of my personal thoughts on the project. Then, I’ll do an analysis of what stands out to me on the song, and how I find it significant. By the end of any given Attunement, I’m hoping that you’ll gain some insight into what I gravitate towards when I listen to music. This series is my way too complex way of answering the age old party ice breaker: “What kind of music do you listen to?”
