i’ll get around to it when the time is right

in my life of listening to records i’ve often found myself disliking an album and putting it way for a while. on plenty of occasions i’ve revisited the album. days, months, or even years later, to come back and realise how great a piece of work it is. why didn’t i realise this when i first listened to the work?

i’ve come to realise there are times in your life to accept new music, art, lovers, friendships. we move through cycles in our lives and there are times when something makes the most perfect of sense, and other times where a thought or an idea can seem so ridiculous

these days rather than dismiss a piece of work, i put it away for a while with the idea of rediscovering it at another time. some of my most favourite albums i hated on first listen. but somehow over time i gave them another chance and was in the frame of mind to understand the art presented to me

its all about timing
