    Bein from Jersey (South Jersey) I grew up on doowop. I love this music. My mom and dad loved it and I now love it. The music today ( if you can even call it music) is terrible.

    This is way way more beautiful and perfected without any instrumentation. Humans are the instrument, we are the construct of music and sound, a byproduct of nature and all its chaos and compassion without judgment, only karma acting upon oneself which is created out of desire
