RIP David Bowie: One of Music's Primary Colors
Woke up to find that David Bowie had passed away. I knew his birthday had been the other day, I knew his album released last week, I've seen Labyrinth, I know his classics, but if I told you his music spoke to me since I was young... I would be lying. I'm not sure I ever fully "got" everything that Bowie was in the musician sense.
GASP! You cant say you didn't fully "get" something! Its 2016! Fake it!
That being said, I did fully understand his value in creativity and his IMPORTANCE to almost all musical or artistic cultures post his emergence. When I call David Bowie one of "musics primary colors" I mean that whether the serving is small or large, David Bowie has inspired sound and visuals for 50 years. That is fucking incredible. He is an undeniably impressive creative force and I wanted to share some of the music that sampled David Bowie and was born from the color he gave to the music industry.
