This calls for an axiom - if you have to ask, you don't know how. Really? If the music isn't moving you, you are listening to the wrong stuff. It's not about the stereo, it's about your interaction with the art. Surf YouTube and find new music. What drives you? Hone in on music with a message, meaning, not just some old twaddle muzac. Get into a musician or band and read up on their history, get into the players, into their heads. Collect their albums, their progression. Sing along out loud.
How does one "Get lost in the music"?
I seem to have lost the ability over the years. Is there a routine you guys follow to get yourself into that state?
My mind is constantly drifting/thinking when i am listening. My equipment is very musical and hiend in nature so i cant blame my equipment for my inability to get emotionally attached.
I dont expect to get into this state everytime i listen, but would like it to happen at least weekly.
Any advice is much appreciated
