I don't know how to say this but I will do my best. .. when I walked inside the music area at Paradiso last saturday the Warp DJ played VI Scose Poise which sounded very cool, I did know the song and also played it like 8 times before, but combined with the ambiance and the full sound this song sounded very warm and different than at home, somehow it has another dimension added to it. when I play the song now I like it much more and ofcourse that is because of the memory I have now, but it is still the same song. Does it make sence? |

i can remember listening to screamadelica tripping my face off on acid. i couldn't listen to slip inside this house for about 2 years after because of all the flashbacks. so i would say that you do make sense. hearing songs in a different context does affect you. |

Yes, that makes sense to me. I find the setting/location you are in while playing a song will greatly affect the way you perceive it. Aldo lighting, ambient sounds, mood etc have an effect. |

That is why a lot of people who don't go to clubs or Ibiza can't see the appeal in commercial dance. |

I do actually see your point there but i think even if i went i wouldn't like it as i never have and never will. |

Dance music is less about music appreciation and more about using music to trigger memories and feelings. There are certain dance tracks I love though. |

I heard the first song off draft played loud in a club, gave me a whole new perspective on it :) |

yes, I understand your point... music that I have link to some part of my life always sounds better and means more to me then other music that hasn't been link in the same sort of way... and yeah, I love a lot of fairly cheesy and cheap 80's songs just because they're very nostalgic and stuff... |

i defintely understand what you mean. like you there are certain tracks i just didn't "get" til i heard them in the right environment. and its not just as straightforward as a clubs/drugs thing. it can be a headphones moment - you finally hear the intensity of the track when nothing else can interfere. or when you hear something in a certain mood/place/with certain people - somehow, it always manages to capture that feeling you had. so you can live it again. if you see what i mean. |

were you using something? stupid me making all this spelling mistakes |

"like you there are certain tracks i just didn't "get" til i heard them in the right environment." Yup, I never really enjoyed Autechre's Garbage E.P. until I was on the train with my girlfriend in the early evening the other week... weirdly fitting. |

yeah I see what you mean, I also do that, and when I play that song again after 5 years I hope I will be mindtransported back to Paradiso ;) (what a night btw) "headphone moment" is also a good description, like for example Squarepusher - Tetra-sync sounds very chaotic on speakers but on headphones it just sound super and everything fits perfectly, this also has something to do with the way a song is brought to you. -crazone is that ment for me? if it is, I didn't use a thing at that moment |

this is also why I think that ppl could appreciate IDM, just if it is brought to them in the right circumstances. |

Songs always change their spots depending on how happy/sad I am, how hungry I am, where I am, how loud I'm listening to it, etc. And first impressions are important. Albums eternally remind me of the location and state of mind I was in when I either listened to it for the first time. Maybe not literally the first listen, but the initial ''honeymoon'' period when I'm getting to know the album. This goes for most people though, I'd assume. So hopefully I'm in a suitable and compatible mood when I hear something for the first time. |
