Site Manifesto

1. This site is dedicated to understanding our affective relation to music. We are interested in the "immediate experience" of popular music.

2. While our criticism shall be influenced by aesthetics and cultural concerns, our primary critical concern will be with our own personal experiences.

3. We take it that a criticism interested in personal experience is not to commit to an anti-intellectual stance.

4. We will also provide examples or narratives about how we use and arrange the music in our life.
