"BUT WHAT IS THE MUSICAL TORTURE EXPERIMENT NICK?"
Well me, I'm glad you asked. The Musical Torture Experiment was started in 2013 by yours truely, Nicholas R Coulombe. Where I asked everyone I knew, met, or saw on the street, to hand me 5 songs that I would add to one playlist, listen to that playlist on a loop AND NO OTHER MUSIC for an entire month.
I have continued this tradition each year recruiting Willing victims & voulenteers to listen along with me.
These victims have many different lives, interests, and genre preferences, but there is one thing they all have in common.
The blissfull escapism of living in their headphones.
This gaggle of Tune-heads who use their music as a fundamental life resource, a coping mechanism, an escapist fantasy or meditation. These people offer their body and spirit to music.
Now, for a whole month, they are relinquishing control of their music.
Shotgun no longer shuts their piehole.
For an entire month. Listeners will not be able to skip or select any music other than YOUR SUBMISSIONS!
This is the perfect opportunity to force someone to really find whats so amazing about those artists we culturally hate. Or maybe theirs an oldy that your grandkids Refuse to consider music because there is static or twangy voices instead of bass drops.
Maybe you talk about your love of skrillex and a hipster spits their kombucha in your face.
If you have songs that DESERVE the light of day. This is your chance to indulge in their exhibition.
want to voulenteer yourself as tribute to listen along with these crazy *******? keep tabs on what is being added cause you think its kinda interesting? Or contribute YOUR five songs?
Just Send an email to TorturePlaylist@gmail.com by the end of August to participate!
