Wow, then I truly am Sorry For Party Rocking.
True. I'm just teenage dirtbag baby
Came here to make a joke about this “explaining why I’ve always been ‘baroque’” - but after reading it my new takeaway is that this is another good descriptor of why white people have no culture :
NRT maintains that rather than relying on learned expectations or prediction, musical experiences arise from the brain’s natural oscillations that sync with rhythm, melody and harmony. This resonance shapes our sense of timing, musical pleasure and the instinct to move with the beat.
Just consuming other cultures while repressing everything through joyless religiosity and wondering why they have no ‘rhythm, melody and harmony… sense of timing …and the instinct to move with the beat’
Jesse, what the fuck are you talking about?!

Go woke, go baroque

This is peak tagline material.
So true bestie
Lmao no idea this would rustle people.
Probably because it's really fucking stupid
Haha fair. It made sense when I posted it - like the article is saying we instinctively “feel” the music, but I’ve only seen white people instinctively clap off beat to music. Idk - good to be shamed for posting nonsense I suppose lol 
So you're saying that the way I feel when I'm really high is right?
Yes. Except the Dave Matthews band doesn't rock
You are what you eat! (I'm full of macroplastics from CDs, yum! 
)
