For a lot of people music is a part of a healing process, a form of meditation that began years ago. And just some of the subtle arrangements that were created years ago, are used in various forms of entertainment right before us, we just hardly ever choose to ackowledge where it all came from. Regardless on whether or not we camn sit through an entire symphony of Bach, or the Indians war cry, there are hidden key elements that express emotions that a lot of us aren't prepared to deal with..You know, when we think of (universial) music we think of what has been presented to us in the form of mainstream rock, stuff whoich our parents and friemds have familiarized us with, but it didn't just come out of nowhere, I mean everyone has their place in history. Music goes in cycles, and we forget at times that the main components that put together our favorite songs began many years ago.
