#he said that his appearance is flamboyant and demands attention while his music is intentionally meant to be background noise

[das-lied-von-der-erde]

The way he’s so seductively posed, cigarette in hand, leaning over a fucking SYNTHESIZER… oh Brian why did you stop dressing like this

#I can’t believe he gave up his non binary swag #and I don’t say ‘non binary’ lightly because the stuff he said about his gender being between or outside the binary of male and female… ok! #he said it’s because he started leaning more into Ambient Music & realized the dissonance between his appearance vs his music #he said that his appearance is flamboyant and demands attention while his music is intentionally meant to be background noise #so he stopped wearing the makeup and dulled down his looks #and I just think that’s such a shame #I think having a dissonance between your artistic output & your personal style is funny #we need metal musicians and hyperpop artists who come on in a bland button down flannel shirt & khakis #and we need classical composers and ambient composers with long dyed hair and painted eyelids and colourful clothes #Brian Eno
