Idyl Time: Snowmine : Laminate Pet Animal

Sound familiar? They're like Local Native's East Coast cousin. Good stuff.

Remember to Remember...

This blog is just a personal exploration of music and represents my preference and perspective (for whatever, if anything, that's worth). The site is dubbed "Idyl Time" because I soon realized that a large majority of my "idle" time is spent on music and who doesn't love a good play on words? I stumbled on the definition of "idyl" in a book I was reading and thought it worked as a title for this endeavor because each piece of music I'm examining here is a composition (be it not necessarily pastoral). But, when you discover a connection with a song, an album, an artist or a show it can truly border on an inconsequential affair; in that... it tugs on the very strings of your heart and can pinch you ever so lightly (or painfully) in the most secret of places. Music can transport you in an instant to a person, place or memory that still holds a dear (or dark) place in your heart. It's something so private and so personal and so inherently unique to each listener. It's a relationship that obviously has no tangible relevance on your day to day existence but at the same time can represent a "romantic affair" or attachment of some sort. I've personally always attempted to operate with a hap-hazard, caution-to-the-wind, attitude towards life and all it's offerings for experience. Better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all (which beyond relationships, can refer to all the windows and doors that life affords you). I guess my point is, you may have tried, you may have failed, you may have loved, you may have lost, but you took a chance. And you still have your memories and the music they're dressed in. For whatever that's worth.
