Is there a philosophical connection between surrealism in art and existentialism? What would that sound like?ĭesensitized is the collaborative project of Deborah Martin and Dean De Benedictis. Perhaps this music is about examining the individual’s knowledge and perception of reality, as well as the individual’s relationship to society, the universe, and God, I am crazy about this, so I am unreliable and hopelessly prejudiced on this matter.What I love are elemental collages exercising granular control of the content, that gets me every time. What I hear is a celebration of the individual and a creed of nonconformism, exercising every freedom of choice, giving limitless value to individual dignity, personal love, and creative effort. On the other hand, it does also work as a slow acting soporific, and as a satisfying form of sonic wallpaper. Something to try to focus on as you wait for the daylight. Electronics with harps and flutes and bells and all manner of percussion. It is maybe something like experimental jazz or rock or playtime or dance or some time to just quietly sit and listen. What the heck is this sound? (I want more) It is not for exercising to, but it does work as a complex background, in an abstract way. This is time spent listening carefully because it is interesting and I want to hear it all, or I might miss something. The pursuit of music is often playful and imaginative, daring and expositional. You might say that “odd things to listen to” describes a whole musical genre, but this project is different, it is the strange one in a population of many random contrarians and individualists. What I find are strange sounds to listen to and that is what I like most. Here are nine tracks, the spirit here is restless and explores or amplifies (distorts?) a wide and changing range of strange clues. New sounds are being invented, and clocks are ticking, and I merely opine, as one does from time to time. Music has many historic traditions, but the art of listening can begin in the world where you are right now. Can it explain itself? Why should it explain itself!? It just is. Poetry, and perhaps music too, never needs to explain itself.
