Her music encompasses all that I felt in my late teens and early 20s
It really suits every emotion possible. I love her as a person too. She's a lot more intelligent than she looks. I love the crazy metaphors and images she uses to describe music.
based OP
Cute story OP. Have you checked her list of favourite albums? Some great stuff in there faroutmagazine.co.uk
Wishing you luck!
yes! we had very similar music taste even before I ever listened to her music. I have been making music since I was 13, but when I discovered bjork and all the music she introduced me to it really took my experimentation to the next level
Based OP, wholesome story. Young Bjork is a 10/10
thanks. I expected a bunch of people to spam me with Ricardo Lopez pictures
post your music. good story btw
>be me, also 19
>also go on bike rides and go very far then find my way back home
>also bad socializer, hate new people reflexively, even talking to friends is tiring
>also make music
>also fell in love with björk
youre not alone OP :) but what happened to me was
>cant listen to björk's music though i see how unique and complex it is because it feels cold and sometimes its too intense (like someone in love made me cry)
>learn about ricardo lopez
>abandon ship altogether
just felt wierd you know. anyways

Based OP.
sorry you're so weird now user, real girls matter too. adorable greentext tho, biking far with music is my favorite activity
soundcloud.com
I hope you like it
>> no bed, just a bamboo mat and a sleeping bag
expected this to to be a joke green text when i got to this point
can you elaborate? did you go to a college for homeless people?
I've always been weird as fuck it's ok. I have Aspergers and girls are repulsed by it. I am also a really intense person and that doesn't go down well
I don't live in a dorm. I just live in a bare ass one room apartment.
>thristle street
that name sounds ridiculously familiar... have you shilled it anywhere else before?
(btw it's really nice, a little pretentious but quite comfy)
I love this meme. Ricardo Lopez makes me feel weird because besides the racism I see him as a tragic character. He was basically a 4channer neckbeard.
I posted it earlier today. You might have seen me on reddit a lot. It's pretentious but it's the name of an actual street near my house. I try to put a little bit of that cringe post rock literary aesthetic into the names because I want it to sound like my suburban teenage years I spent on a bicycle
followed your soundcloud it's hella comfy. kinda what i assumed you'd sound like given the green text.
thanks man. There's plenty of links in there to youtube and Wordpress if you're interested. I make videos on youtube for my music with footage I take while on my bike. On the blog, I want to do some writing on there about certain production techniques and sometimes some stories if you're interested.
Well, that was pretty comfy. Nothing special but good enough. Congrats user
Didn't Bjork fuck a nigger and appear nude in a video?
God idk how you can obsess over such a roastie whore. You are a megacuck and a simp for a roastie
thanks bro. It's just shit I throw together at night instead of sleeping. I hope one day it can be a lot better.
she sucks and you should go to reddit. we’re an AC/DC board now
>it's another faggot mixing up anti-social and asocial
it's early morning and i'm sat in my room with the window opened listening to the rain and this music is the perfect accompaniment to that.
also been really struggling with finishing songs recently as i'm not confident with vocals, and have been debating whether or not to just do chill instrumental songs like yours so i can at least get something finished, and now i've got my answer
thanks user, hope everything turns out okay for you
>Be you in 2 years, age 21
>Embarrassed at yourself for posting shit threads
there's enough cringe teenagers on here for this thread to be productive so I might not regret it.
thank you for this. It really makes my heart swell to think that I could provide a little moment for someone like that. I enjoy those moments myself, and to be on the other end of the enjoyment of a piece of art is a wholly satisfying feeling.
enjoy it whole it lasts, OP
I pretty much had the same exact feelings throughout my whole highschool and into uni
but now i'm 22 and I just don't get those feelings anymore, and it sucks
im getting old
