#Menestrel Ă© uma nova tag mensal para celebrar a mĂșsica em suas formas mais conceituais: os ĂĄlbuns. E para abrir com chave de ouro, estreia-se com o tema #debut - que mais?
Ă suposto ser sobre âos primeiros trabalhos de seus artistas favoritosâ, mas eu quis nĂŁo sĂł escolher isso, como tambĂ©m um album que, lĂĄ por ser o debut da banda, nĂŁo deixa de mostrar o melhor que a banda tem para oferecer.
NĂŁo Ă© que os ĂĄlbums que se seguem na discografia de Ashram sejam menos excelentes que este âAshramâ (sim, Ă© um self-titled - e quem sabe se #selftitled nĂŁo Ă© um tema de um prĂłximo menestrelâŠ), mas este, lĂĄ por ser o primeiro, nĂŁo fica nada atrĂĄs em excelĂȘncia⊠e Ă© provavelmente o que eu ouço mais vezes, talvez por ser tambĂ©m o ĂĄlbum com o qual conheci a banda - e o Ășnico que tinha para ouvir atĂ© sair o prĂłximoâŠ
Na foto mostro o album na sua re-edição em digipak (limitada a 1000 unidades), com a qual substitui a edição original em jewel case, porque esta tem uma faixa extra (Fourth).
Uma edição mais recente (de 2013) também com esta faixa ainda existe em stock na editora*, aproveitem!
Mas que Ă© isso, Ashram? Bem, Ashram Ă© um trio Italiano de mĂșsica neoclĂĄssica, e em vez de os descrever⊠ouçam! O disco começa assim:

The Algorithm Failed Music

I have recently been made painfully aware of how small is the lifespan of an #USB #stick.

Sam Whited: 2025-09-30 Trolley Barn Contra Post Mortem
The first time I DJed for a Contra Dance1 was at Inman Parkâs
famous Trolley Barn.
At the time I was DJing in the way other social dances are normally DJed: I had
a laptop, I played a song, everyone danced.
No fancy mixing, or effects: the most technical thing I did was loop 32 bar
sections of music to stretch it out until the caller was ready to end the dance.

Furthermore, I donât even have a specific genre I like the most, often itâs something electronic. â Read more
10 Bands That Originally Had Terrible Names
Choosing a name is a fairly important part of starting a band. Ideally, the name should give listeners a sense of the group before theyâve even heard any music.

Wanna read something very scary?
†Read More
@prologic@twtxt.net Thatâs an interesting premise in that article:
The fun has been sucked out of the process of creation because nothing I make organically can compete with what AI already producesâor soon will.
This is like saying itâs pointless to make music yourself because some professional player/audio engineer does a better job. Really, thereâs always someone or something thatâs better than you at a particular job.
If we focus too much on âcompetitionâ, then yes, you can just stop doing anything. I donât know how common this mindset is, especially among artists or creative people. đ€ I would have assumed that many writers, for example, simply enjoy the process of writing. Am I being too naive once more? đ€Ł

The animal kingdom is a hotbed of shocking musical talent. Take the elephant harmonica players, for example, or the bats with death metal growls.
