If you’re a person of a certain age, namely my age, you might remember the trippy animations from Sesame Street of a bunch of rainbow circles on a black background floating around doing abstract stuff, all to this weird pulsing repeating vocal soundtrack. (If you don’t remember off the top of your head, go search youtube for “geometry of circles” and then you’ll know if you’ve ever seen it or not.)
Anyway, that music for those animations is Philip Glass music. And it’s not just any composition of his, those are original compositions created for those animations. Cool, huh?
So I was watching the video on youtube, and I know better but I was reading the comments anyway, and one comment said something to the effect of “I listened to this music backwards one day, and got the devil’s recipe for brownies”. I thought, I have the technology, what does it sound like, backwards?
Turns out? Backwards, it sounds pretty much the same.

I very nearly made this a Braindouche! Hates It’s Listeners installment, but decided that it’s not really long enough to make anyone suffer sufficiently.
It is, however, that Ode To Joy, it is utterly terrible, and it’s a terrific example of the horrors that FL Studio allows otherwise well-meaning people to perpetrate upon music. Enjoy, suckers.

I don’t know where this came from, when I did it, or how. But it’s kinda pretty, and it was sitting around on my hard drive, and I think the source material came from an atrociously bad CD from the dollar store. So, here. Enjoy.

There has been a suspicious spike in traffic here lately, so I devised a test. If you really want to be here, you’ll not only stay subscribed, but you’ll go over to iTunes and leave a review detailing the philosophical implications of forcing people to listen to two of the most obnoxious songs ever created at the same time. Bonus points will be awarded if you can include some obfuscatory theory-speak about how the sun will come out in a small world after all, tomorrow.
This actually wasn’t my idea. The original idea came from Midori. The the not-safe-for-work fetish diva, not the liquor.
