#i love the music it like scratches my brain

[argoii-official]

which cards from the major arcana (tarot) do you all associate yourselves with? if you don't know how to answer, what's your favourite type of art?

i'm not very versed in tarot, my apologies! THE SEVEN'S FAVORITE ARTFORMS

percy - music, huge music guy! it scratches his brain the right way, what can i say

annabeth - she enjoys the intricacies of classic marble sculptures.

jason - he likes silly pencil doodles. it reminds him of a past he’s forgotten. (aka days where he was studying history with reyna and octavian.)

piper - also big on music! but because she tends to relate emotions and events with them, and it helps her a lot with releasing/remembering emotions.

leo - he likes paintings because he likes thinking about colour theory and how colours and mix and hhh science

hazel - she loves how much emotion goes into acting :)

frank - he thinks chinese silk embroidery is absolutely gorgeous! and it is! and his grandmother has it framed and in her house!

OK but can we TALK about his vocal development because I've absolutely loved the grittier flairs he's been slowly adding [I think starting a bit subtle in ANRFTW] but oh my god he went full metal scream this time and! Holy SHIT it's so good!!

#i love metal so like #how the hell is his music becoming even more my niche #i mean i'm not complaining #chonny jash #cj wwph #scratch my brain to bits music man

I was streaming this to my friends on discord and the music kept cutting out and not playing- #- and my brushes were slow and it took about a minute for the saving bar to appear on Clip #and it was stressing me out so much so I’m just glad it’s finally finished #I barely even care about thr lil things that don’t looks like they should #I’m so extremely tired and almost out of breath from how stressed it made me to make this #and I’m gonna take a reat and keep watching House for the rest of the day.

semester hitting so bad I had to go back to my roots (listening to chonny jash)

#it’s been a hot minute since I listened to his music #some of the lyrics in cccc go HARD #I forgot how much his music scratches my brain #like I’m in love with the song Dream (Outro from Calamity) #if I could eat music I would because it’s just so good and so so pretty #chonny jash

Generally I think the 2023 Camelot cast recording does a very good job of conveying the onstage vibe of pretty much all the songs with the dialouge snippets. However in my heart of hearts I truly believe the Simple Joys of Maidenhood feels incomplete without the moment of Arthur realizing Guenevere has run away and right to him after she sings her intro. I'm sure I could choose many hills to die on for cast recording opinions but apparently the one I feel the most is a particularly good delivery of the word shit.

#It just is the exact tone of the scene and it's the one bit of song dialouge that feels missing #and also in my head I say it every time because I forget it isn't there #My other thought was the end of What Do The Simple Folk Do because it's weird they have a part of the song that doesn't exist in the show #But I'm not sure you can adequately convey the energy they have at the end there so maybe it's just as well that it's a little deceptive #Today is apparently national bird day that's why I decided I was gonna listen to Camelot today gotta honor my fave bird nerd #it's been a while #And I may now be doing a slight backslide into having too many Camelot thoughts #Camelot Musical #I had a moment of does this belong in the tag and then I figured no one else is using it so why not #The show has been closed for like six months so I'm gonna assume standards are low to nonexistent #The other thing I forget every time it's been a while since I listened to the album straight through is how I'll listen to the act 1 finale #and it'll scratch some part of my brain and I'll have so many thoughts throughout the entr'acte #And then If Ever I Would Leave You comes on and my brain gets completely wiped and I have to stare at a white wall for an extended time #to recover #I just love this album so much #glad I bought the cd #This Barbie can't shut up about Camelot

whew. feeling some type of jumbled up blend of gender dysphoria + creative energy + existential angst + anxiety + fandom imposter syndrome + oversensitivity

#my words are a drop in the ocean and i feel like i am being annoying even when i know i’m not #etc #all this to say i love everyone but i feel kinda like a weird snail in a shell rn #weird way to feel #music is about the only thing scratching my brain correctly rn #also the gomens hyperfixation #i have a mini vacation in three weeks and i think that will help #aughfghhf #feelin a little ridiculous tbh i KNOW it is ridiculous #but it be like that sometimes #it’s the ‘everyone would be right to leave you alone’ energy #no good. incorrect. cognitive distortion central #BUT IT STILL HITS

i see or hear alternative/punk rock content and arata screams at the top of his lungs to let him out

#sorry to be talking about yet another muse but i won't lie!! arata pops into my brain kinda often!! #i'm in my creating/revamping oc's era rn i guess asdf #bc maybe i could just kinda?? scratch all his original stuff and maybe the original stuff for all his bandmates too #refocus him a bit somehow #i'll always be attached to stand out!!'s original dynamic but i also think it'd be nice if i maybe left some of those connections open #for others to take? like you have a muse who would be the front man of a band?? or the drummer?? lead guitarist?? #cool bc arata's a bassist!! play with him!! be his bandmate!! #also just thinking about him being the driving force behind the band -- he's the reason they get together #which was partially the concept before but not completely #i think this time i would want to focus more on the idea that arata pretty much loses stability at home once his parents divorce #his sister doesn't live with him anymore #so he's determined to build a new family even though he doesn't realize that's what he's doing #this band becomes his world not just bc he loves music but bc it's all that he feels he really has -- it keeps him sane #i dunno y'all asdfg i like the idea but should i bring our silly lil bassist back to bug everyone? am i doing too much :' ) #also i'm back!! gonna try to get some things done now that it's quiet <3 #get ready to ramble | ooc

my spotify search history atm is so funny lol its like, renowned canadian singer-songwriter leonard cohen! danish death/doom band konvent! whatever the fuck u would describe heilung as (wikipedia says "experimental folk" which, like, sure. but also its like some kinda ancient germanic/viking type of thing) ! classical chinese opera & folk songs ! cannibal corpse! harvest dawn from tes oblivion ost! celtic frost's A Dying God Coming Into Human Flesh! moist ! carmina burana! and so on & so forth ......

#u know when u Really Really wanna listen 2 Some Type Of Music but u canNOT figure out what hyperspecific music will scratch that brain itch? #yeah. #but also i do generally like all the above things its just. my phases r usually a bit more. consistent. discrete. #also holy fuck ive not listened 2 cohen in an age and a half i forgot how Everything his music is <3 #also if u know any songs similar to that celtic frost one PLEASE hmu 🙏🙏🙏 i love it but cant find much that hits Quite the same...... #also im kinda like meh on death metal as like. A Thing. like its Fine its Good 80% of the time its not what im lookin for #but im Always here 4 women who do the harsh/growling vocals and godDamn do konvent deliver. more women in heavy metal 2kforever #awhile ago spotify had a thing that was like 'heres ur weirdest match up' as in one the fewest number of users went from 1 artist to another #the same as u. and i got lana del rey -> tool and like. that aint shit spotify where tf do they pull those from. #barely scratching the Surface of weird

Jess should I watch Elvis?

yes, if for austin's kinetic performance alone! (i might be in love w him, though that's not entirely new, just elevated.) and also good music. i've been listening to so much of elvis' stuff and the vintage music/artists i love in general for the past week and it's nourishing to my soul.

biopics can be a tricky thing, and for me the importance lies in centering/revealing the subject's humanity amidst their unique qualities and flaws, and exploring the story in a way that feels empathetic and not exploitative (hence the screaming i did over a different movie, which doesn't even deserve to be labeled as a biopic, that shall not be named this summer), which this did. i was telling a friend, and my mom and i have discussed this many times over the years, but there's something heartbreaking and haunting to me about the fact that certain artists become so indelible in pop culture, so larger than life in that way, that the image of them takes over from the person, even from the artistry, and they become a caricature or a cardboard cutout of themselves. an icon, but no longer remembered as flesh and blood. there are a number of legends from those golden days of hollywood that this has happened to, most notably perhaps being marilyn and elvis. the tragedy of their respective stories comes into play there too, fixing them forever as that ending, those specific images. how do you overcome the iconography, so detached from agency and personhood, to re-center a human being? to not re-victimize them or overly distort what happened, and yet still tell it in a way that's a compelling narrative and can take some fictional license? it has to be measured so carefully. what got me with austin's performance is - you can go to vegas and find an impersonator on every corner if you want. he wasn't doing an impersonation, he was finding the vulnerability and electricity in the actual person, and that makes all the difference.

i will say though, i've been sitting here contemplating - what does baz luhrmann put into his films that very specifically alters my brain chemistry, but always in a slow drip, sneakily inescapable way? i'll be like, well, that sure was a movie, and think i moved on, but then days later be obsessively tantalized about aspects of it. this has happened three times in my life, and previously i might've thought it was more of a symptom of my teen years, but no, it still apparently rings true. i don't even entirely understand why he made some of the frenetic directing choices he made or certain moments of the framing or whatever tom hanks was doing, but the themes it touches on regarding the power and influence of music and the social upheaval of the time and what creates an indelible legacy, and that center of humanness i mentioned that's existent in the portrayal, can i stop thinking about it? no, i cannot. so be warned it might make you feel unhinged <3

edit, 2/3/23: over a month later and two subsequent viewings, including on the big screen (gorgeous showstopping spectacular) and i just have to remark that my thoughts on the editing and on tom hanks' performance have radically changed, but i think it's because you need to see it more than once to even begin to absorb it. now that i fully understand those aspects of the film and have seen it in all its grandeur and its empathy, i appreciate the framing, and the art direction/editing/costuming/everything is so breathtaking. it's so clearly a work of love and passion on everyone's part and the pinnacle of baz's particular vision as a filmmaker in many respects. it has elvis' spirit in all of its essence. i stand by everything i said about austin (and then some, he is phenomenal), it's like he was meant to embody this, but as a whole i underappreciated the movie as a whole during this first viewing, and now...it's impacted me deeply and i'm grateful for that, i love it very much.

#it's been way too long since i've sat down and watched moulin rouge or r&j but the hold they had on me #i was too young to see r&j when it came out but saw it in highschool and a couple of my friends and i were also *obsessed* #with moulin rouge at the time #those were such formative things that i think elvis scratched my brain in the double whammy way #of both nostalgia for what that fixation felt like and the ever present spark of interest and love i have for old hollywood and music etc #gatsby really didn't do this to me but this one did #additionally i have watched more new/new to me movies in the past week than i probably have in the past two years #and it's upped my general insanity 😌 #anonymous #letterbox #elvis #i was a dreamer
