Hello! Since you enjoyed Twitch plays Pokemon, I’d like to recommend the music from Church of the Helix Choir. They have three different songs–Bloody Sunday, All Terrain Victory, and Praise the Helix Fossil, all great in my opinion… I get chills listening to them sometimes, it’s amazing how they turned a bunch of jokes into something so powerful with just music. Anyway, I hope all has been going well for you!

I’m not really a musical person (understatement of the year, any of my friends will tell you), and I don’t think music really affects me in the way it does most people, emotionally speaking – but yeah, these are pretty neat. I particularly like Bloody Sunday; very solemn, almost haunting.  One could almost use this whole endeavour as a case study in the creation of a religion – and only partially tongue-in-cheek, at that.  Faced with meaninglessness, we create meaning; faced with luck, good or bad, we ascribe it to divine providence… and, of course, faced with the utterly banal, we create art and beauty.  Again… neat.
