HOT ROCKS

It’s getting weird kiddies! Everybody’s tight; tight like a precision machine. But who wants to hear a machine make music? It doesn’t matter what comes out of a Marshall amp; what counts is what comes forth from the human plugged, into the amp.

It’s getting weird kiddies! Everybody’s tight; tight like a precision machine. But who wants to hear a machine make music? It doesn’t matter what comes out of a Marshall amp; what counts is what comes forth from the human plugged into the amp. Manual dexterity, technique, power: all that is is manual dexterity, technique and power, and that’s ALL it is. When you’re traveling, the car is important, but getting where you want to go is the important thing. Same principle applies in playing music.

Look, music is communication. It’s a language different from all other languages, but it’s stone media; it CONVEYS, just like any other media.

Some dudes just rap down on you with their music; some dudes just want to get you going, play a lot of stupid games, rythm games, beat games, mind games, money games; some music brings its own ego trip (dig what I can do); some music brings peace, tells you to feel good, tells you to be free; some music is actually psychedelic! But most music that gets crammed into our audios is stone DEAD.
