We’re genetically fused with rhythm – we speak to communicate and there’s a melody or a cadence to the way that we relate to each other. And if we don’t communicate, we don’t survive. So in a way, melody is intrinsic to our survival. Sound is intrinsic to our survival.” – Rich Lucano (10:24)Resources:SpotifyInstagramSoundcloudIndigo XDarkness is golden: Audio Experiences (Death Mediation)
