Let It Be Free

Music must be free.

Free from the market, from fame, from success, from what the public desires, from superficial entertainment, from the ego of artists, from the rhetoric of suffering and of the unrestrained genius; free from the ‘freshness’ of the young and the ‘experience’ of the old, from styles and purists of every kind, from those who impose the weight of their own tradition, from theory manuals, from mannerisms, from conservatories, from what is considered ‘right’ and ‘wrong’.

Free from connections, from the exchange of favors, from press offices, from managers, from booking agents, from promoters, from social marketing, from self-promotion, from press kits and demos; free from narcissism, from the need for self-affirmation, for social gratification, from the urge to demonstrate one’s technical mastery or one’s knowledge; free from laziness, from approximation, from the shortcuts of the cunning. Free from videos, from images, from words, from texts, from names and from titles.

Free.
