Finally my wish has been granted :)

[@inventgineer]

The contrast between the music and the EXTRAORDINARILY obnoxious and intrusive ads prefacing the music is SO tonally dissonant -it is the difference between witnessing genuine art, beauty, and inspiration......and the sick perversion of those things. The beauty and peacefulness of this piece calls such attention to how horrible the ads are.

[@chypho]

I completely agree (and have adblock on my computer) but the ads are by far my biggest source of financial support, so I have to have them on. Glad you enjoy the music though! (PS if you're using a computer I recommend uBlock Origin)

[@Supahdave1000]

You know, sometimes youtube sends you down an absolutely insane rabbit hole. And sometimes, youtube gets it juuust right. This is wacky, funny, interesting, cute, bouncy and I am 1000% here for it.

Thank you Supah Dave 1000 💪

This is the sort of music to take a walk to. Just put on your earbuds or headphones and walk for an hour or two around town while listening to these albums. There’s something special about exploring the area where you live while listening to music. Makes it feel like you’re on an adventure.

[@chypho]

Thank you!

Grasshopper Spring slaps so hard, I can hardly believe it. It sounds like a whole bunch of grasshoppers just woke up from hibernation, dusted off their instruments, and threw the mother of all hoedowns amongst the sweet spring grasses. All in all, magnificent sequel!

Sure Spotify is often more convenient than KZbin, but I found some real Gems here, a lot of obscure stuff that just vibes with me completely. Somehow I rarely find that on the other platform.

[@chypho]

I don't use Spotify so I have no idea how finding new music works on there, but KZbin's algorithm is wonderful!

[@j.p.westwater2334]

Do you have any particular key words or tags that you use to find new music? I used to use soundcloud in the early 2010s to find niche music like this, but I have trouble finding new music in the spotify era too.

Listen folks, I gotta tell ya, Salvia Divinorum, it's tremendous, it's really tremendous. People are saying, "Donald, what's Salvia Divinorum?" Well let me tell you, it's a powerful plant, and I mean powerful. It's got these leaves, and when you smoke them, whoa boy, you're in for a ride. Believe me, I've heard some stories about people taking Salvia Divinorum, and let me tell you, they're incredible stories. They say that it takes you to another world, that you see things that you can't even imagine. Some people say it's like being in a dream, but better. And I gotta tell ya, that sounds pretty good to me. Now listen, I'm not saying you should go out and try Salvia Divinorum. That's up to you, folks. But what I am saying is that this is a plant that's worth learning more about. It's got a long history of use in traditional medicine, and some people say it can even help with certain health conditions. So let me just say, Salvia Divinorum, it's a winner. It's a real winner. And I think we should all be paying more attention to it.

[@chypho]

Listen, fat, DON'T SMOKE SALVIA! I was-one time I uh... the diaper-well, we didn't know what we were doing, heh, and uhhh... But you probably already know how that stuff goes, folks. Anyway, that's how I ended up facedown in a big vat o' chili on the day-night, scuse me-I was inaugurated as President. Is-it-was cause I was doin' somethin' I wasn't supposed to, heheh... Lemme tell ya, jack, I got... I got beautiful flowing golden hair on my legs, and when I get high I, uh, just get in the pool and watch it flow in the water for hours. 'Til my skin sags down about near to where it just plain falls off, heheh... I may not be in the, uhhh, in the best shape, but I'm confident in my ability to perform the functions of my duty, uhh... do the best job I can at my job as the-your President. What's that smell? Anyone here smell brisket? Who's smokin' a brisket? Man, I tell ya, that's a lot more healthier thing for, uh, for you to smoke than that salvia stuff, jack. Lemme get some o' that, heh.

Butterfly Fountain sounds like it could be in a video game! think of a Breath of the Wild-type Zelda open world dealio, someplace bright and warm with a waterfall over rocks, with your character bouncing along through the grass and enjoying the scenery. That's what I like to imagine. ☀✨

[@ohmynoche]

As I sit here amidst the tall blades of grass in my middle age, I can't help but reminisce about my youthful days as a spry grasshopper. Those were the times when the world was an endless expanse of green, and the sun kissed our backs with warmth. I remember when a friend put on Entomongaku II. It was the first time I heard music that resonated with the rhythm of my hop, inspiring me to explore the world beyond my leafy haven. The harmonious buzz of crickets, the rustling of leaves, and the gentle hum of the wind in the grass blades were all encapsulated in that album. It became the soundtrack to my adventures and the lullaby to my restless nights, reminding me of the beauty that exists even in the smallest corners of this vast meadow. Those were the days when I danced to the music of life, and that album remains a cherished treasure in the chirping symphony of my memories.
