I can't get in SAW2 anymore :(

I still love it but I can't feel it like I could when I
first started hearing it years back. I still believe its his
best record but its gutting listening to it and although I
enjoy it its not like it was in the past. It kinda feels
almost like you've lost something and you can't get it back
:(

that happens to me to all music I really like.

I don't mind that much - something new will come along that
I'll be enveloped by.

I don't think I've EVER really gotten into it, it's
something I've respected more than actually enjoyed. I love
it, but other than a few select tracks, I haven't clicked
with a lot of them.

SAW3 is a pipe dream. :_-(

But I know what you mean. Its like the first while when I
got into SAW 1 and Come to Daddy Ep. In fact I think I am at
the stage where no music is making me fell anything right
now.

i reckon it`s because as you get older you get stuck in a
rut and banality subconciously begins to creep into your
life and you lose the naivety which makes new music so
wonderful.

I am working at Argos right now (only 2 weeks left though)
and that is really fuckin banal and I don`t feel any
insporation at the end of the day to stick on a CD and say
"Yeahhh thats what I`m talkin about!"

Its the fuckin grind man.

maybe its just me

:D

Well I think music overkill can of course ruin listening in
general. I think BOC is really the kinda of thing I can put
on and dig seriously most of the time. However you gotta be
psyched up to just get into the feel of certain music. I
mean I love Autechre, Aphex and all but sometimes you put
stuff on and feel nothing and its frustrating but I think
that is just music overkill. However I do have a hard time
just putting on stuff like SAW1 and 2 and just seriously
feeling it like I use to and it really really depressing me.
In the past I just use to get such joy from listening to
those records but now its harder.

yeah, but I dunno if it is music overkill because if you
don`t listen to it much any more then it should sound fresh
when you do. It may be to do with the fact that you have
become so familiar with these works that there is nothing
left to discover.

A good way around may be to play it on a walkman and go walk
somewhere you normally wouldn`t in your everyday routine.
Changing your surroundings is a good way to freshen a
listening experience.

After all, they do say music is the soundtrack to our lives,
and if you change the scenery, you won`t be in the same
film.

or something! haha

:D

yes, that happens with even the best albums.
thats why you end up constantly buying more.

oh, and usually if you give the album a long enough break,
you will go back and be able to appreciate it again.

I think its because I'm just not a 'serious' ambient head
anymore. I'm more a groove and melody head now. Thats why I
dig BOC more I guess or something like that.

i don't know what your preferences are, but shrooming and
listening to SAWII is awesome. you hear little sounds you
never noticed before....
it's so (for want of a better word) 'intense'.

other than that, just stop listening to it for a month or so
and i'm sure when you re-listen to it, it'll be like
discovering it all over again. sometimes works for me....
