What are your favorite albums
>>71160645
kek
>>71161576
is it possible to devellop synesthesia?
Or do you just have to be lucky?
Do you see these colors right before your eyes or do you just spontaneously imagine them?
Do you also see shapes or only the colors?
If there are shapes, do you see them clearly or do you have to concentrate on them?
Black and squiggly white.
Everyone here should immediately know what album i'm talking about.

NLDW is the outlier for those colors you listed for Death Grips
>>71162552
Clarence Clarity - No Now
Philip Glass - Glassworks
Sufjan Stevens - Illinois
Generally very layered and colorful music
>>71162580
There's a base level of synesthesia in everybody (see the bouba/kiki effect) but when there are clear overlaps in senses, no you can't intentionally develop it as far as I'm aware.
Some people really do see the colors but I only get a very strong and spontaneous association in my head. I associate colors with sound, letters, and numbers. Used to have smell when I was a kid but it kind of went away with age.
>>71164321
do you use your particularity for drawing?
>>71164372
No, it doesn't affect drawing at all. It does however help a lot with music production. I keep layering more and more "colors" until it feels complete and full to me. Other people seem to like what I make too, so I guess I'm doing something right!

>it doesn't affect drawing at all
some of painters have synestesia and make beautiful abstract pieces out of music.
>It does however help a lot with music production
nice! where can I hear your stuff?
>>71164508
I've always been jealous of people who can paint what they see, what I see never turns out right when I try to depict it
>nice! where can I hear your stuff?
Actually, I just finished this this morning! Hoping to expand this kind of sound into my next album

>my next album
does that mean you already have an album out there?
also, can you listen to this
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ch-hTdc8wRM
and tell me what you "see"? It's one of the only songs I ever instinctively associated abstract forms and colours to
>>71164700
>>71164698
Damn, thanks guys!! This is really encouraging
>>71164638
I like this reaction too
>>71164700
Definitely got a very dark and pulsating circle feel to it. It's hard to pinpoint but it sounds a lot like very massive and very round shapes

not too far away from what I "see", that's interesting.
What I "see" when I listen to this track are big dense "clouds" (but not realistic clouds, more like pic related) pulsating. The only big difference is that I see them purple and not that dark. Actually I see them with the same colors as the album cover is, I never knew if the graphist had the same feeling as I do, or if I was just influenced by the cover.
anyways,
