Album Rating: 4.0 | Sound Off
Fresh out of bed, I close my eyes and meditate. Memories both good and bad flood through my
mind, even as I'm trying to clear it. Nostalgia can be a powerful feeling whenever it
strikes, and it's no stranger to the process of reflection. On this day, I remember my past
failures and try to better myself now. My anger, my depression, everything welling up inside
of me has seemed to disappear; in its place, there's peace of mind, positive philosophies of
the world around me, and Conrad Tao's expressive piano playing. Times have changed, my
friends; it's time to go in peace and love. Listen to this album, give thanks to who those
who admire and respect you, and separate yourself from the crowd. You, my fellow music
listener, are an individual.

'grossly normative, capitalistic, and steeped in established, unchallenged practices, “classical” has
long been code for privileged traditions and the aesthetic sensibilities to which they give rise'
um...i concur?
