Lived downstairs from a couple who were in a chamber orchestra - he was cello, she was violin. They apologised, but I LOVED my morning recital, even if it was only part of the full score.
So fucking lucky! I’m jealous as shit, I would LOOOOVE to have a free personal chamber orchestra on infinite shuffle
Sadly they moved away, and let the flat to concrete-shod students.
I had neighbors who were deaf but their kids could hear perfectly fine. I kept having to tell them to turn down the damn music.
“Look, I’m not going to rat you out to your parents or anything, just turn it down a little, OK?”
Did the parents not feel the vibrations or were the kids smart enough to turn the bass down all the way (or maybe they simply had cheap speakers)?
I think it was cheap speakers… ahhh… apartment living…
No, but I have a neighbor (who is otherwise a recluse) who has been noticed mowing his lawn at three in the morning, also while not wearing anything.
These are muh people
Not exactly what you’re asking, but kinda related…
I had a neighbor who was renting and before he left he called me over one afternoon as I was walking back from school.
He mentioned he’d seen me moving my PC in and out (it was around 2001/2002 and I was lanning constantly) and he offered me two UPS’s (both fucked) and about 8 mp3 cd’s.
I took it all, tested a few tracks and wasn’t interested at first. Then I hit one track that caught me, and I figured if there was one good track, there must be more.
I ripped them all and gave the disks back to him the same afternoon.
It was all triphop. DJ shadow, nightmares on wax, irresistible force, Herbaliser, DJ food, Tosca, and so many more.
One of the best choices I ever made.
Peace to that stoner dude man, I didn’t even get his name.
I lost all my techno mp3 CDs from back in the day. would put about 150 songs on each disc and bought an aftermarket stereo that would specifically play mp3 discs. sad times.
Miss my portable MP3 CD player so much. Tried to show it off to friends, but nobody cared that I could fit 100 songs on a CD because by then everyone had moved on to their stupid iPods with their massive 5GB of hard drive space.
same, took me a long time to get into the mp3 players. didn’t even know what one was when i saw it for the firs time.
Wow, quite a story…
Have a a lot similar ones, also related to music, but I was already into Psytrance, so they’re all related to Psytrance, lol 😁. It was sort of like the vibe back then, everyone found out things on their own, either through digging around or stumbling intentionally or unintentionally.
Yes there’s an older hippy guy neighbor that played the best classic rock and jams all day every weekend and I was sad when lost that
No, but I’m sure my neighbour does
Samesies
No, even if my neighbor had musical taste that perfectly matched my own it’d be disturbing.
Yeah, a roommate of mine who was a crazy awful bitch but she had EXCELLENT taste in music.
One time she decided to punish us for god knows what slight by playing really absurdly loud music. Kinda backfired because when she finally stopped I texted her asking her to turn it back on.
My roomate is a dj so i get all the sets early kinda good study music ngl
Pre recorded sets???
Preplanned
