From the time we were born we are hearing songs from our parents who sing lullaby songs or hum to a tune for us to get asleep, and as we grow up the songs we are hearing were the tunes of the present age that we are in and being a music lover would make you travel from the present music to the past music, but being a musician and a song writer of the present age was being a music lover as well as creating the music that would make such a vision of what the future of the music is. In the present age were bands who write their own songs were discourage by the mainstream media maybe because it is costly compared to those singers with good looks, who only knows how to sing cover songs but, guess that's the reason I stopped watching T.V. but in spite of what is happening on the mainstream media, independent artists still emerge, they are the brave musicians who wrote their own songs, perform publicly with their instruments and still doing it because they love what they do. Even in the local bar scene the public will still favor those who play cover, and only a few bars caters the independent bands. When I was young I dreamed of becoming just like my favorite artist who sing songs on stage, have their own album and travel from place to place to perform, when I was in high school I want to be in a band and luckily the close friends that I have became my band mates, in college my high school band separated from each other to pursue another career in life, and after college some were married, some were professionals, and I choose to live and pursue what makes me happy, I guess musician nowadays live just like that although some were lucky to make a living out of music and some were under paid and some were even abused to not being paid for the gig but in the end it is still "What makes us happy" that keeps musicians doing what they want to do, thank dopamine for those shudders of delight it is a mood enhancing chemical in the brain that has a key role in setting good moods. I've been writing songs for years now and has been encouraging upcoming musicians to always go for it, who knows where music would take you, when I was young I dreamed for it and then it happened and my band would play where our music would lead us, I dreamed of having an album someday and then it came and we did a self produced album on 2007, life in music is a life well spent and experiencing it is experiencing a piece of immortality, I'm still hoping that great artists will continuously emerge and people would keep on supporting them, as of what I say earlier "being a musician and a song writer of the present age was being a music lover as well as creating the music that would make such a vision of what the future of the music is."
