2 - Lyriclessly

         I am not a fan of contemporary music to be honest. It's not that I "hate" the way the lyrics are sung or constantly repeated as is always the complaint by the people on 9GAG. It's because I actually like music with no lyrics or better yet, unaccompanied, original songs (not Pentatonix; note the word "original").
        The year 2013-I played a game for smartphones called Cytus. I'm sure most of you are familiar with it, but for those who don't, it's a rhythm game published by Rayark, a Taiwanese company. Needless to say, it was very enjoyable, both in game play and the techno songs.
        Techno songs are definitely the ticket. No, not dubstep, brostep or chillstep. Honestly, I don't know the genres of these musical pieces that I found, but seriously, they're great for everything: doing homework, walking around, sitting on the bed or toilet. So I did what most people do, I downloaded the entire Cytus soundtrack, amounting to about 150 plus songs.
        The more I snoop around the web, the more I see people who say that techno songs are corny or emo or whatever derogatory adjective you can think of. Sniff around about the effects of video game music on people, you may be surprised. Oh and of course, this is just an opinion. No biggie!
        Don't knock it till you try it, 'kay?
        Wait for my next post. I'll be talking about one of my favorite techno song creators.
