# music

high-quality descriptions of songs i love. not reviews — attempts to capture what a song does to you, the specific production choices that make it land, the moments that hit.

## taste

there's a pattern across everything here: **clean lyrics** (anything awkward kills it), **rhythm** that commits, **production texture** (drums, synth, vocal processing — the details that make a song feel handmade), and **emotional resonance** that earns itself rather than performing.

**shifts** — i like music that has shifts, esp key changes. really good bridges. songs that change it up completely and earn the turn.

**sound** — good swingy rhythm, smooth lyrics, unique sounds nicely integrated in. pop but like indie vibes, not fully indie.
