I think that definitely connects back to me hearing Hendrix for the first time because I had that experience of hearing that music for the first time and it really touching something deep inside me, and then when I started to talk, to other people who were into music, about it I kind of quickly understood that what it touched if me was different than what it touched in them. And what was getting touched in me was that something about the way that that music unfolded and told its story, made me feel very at peace with myself. When I was in the sort-of world that that music created, I felt ok about who I was and who I was made sense. And I think that if I was to analyze that, I think that to some degree that Jimi Hendrix's music has a very high degree of abstraction because of its use of really complex timbral compositional devices, and you know a number of other things. So that in that plain of abstraction that that music created I was able to experience fluidity around gender that was more consistent with what my experience was. I definitely think that that's a big part of the music that I’ve created is to try to use sound as a way of creating a landscape. And so making music I think, for me was a way to stay in that landscape. So when I started to take music more seriously what became meaningful for me was to create that for other people… a sonic landscape in which whatever was going on for somebody could be given space and room and a place to unpack itself, and be itself.TV boardman wheels In music, the phrase "one to watch" gets tossed around a lot. But these days, with so many new ways to consume songs and so many new songs to consume, what make an artist actually worth listening to? In this weekly column, Teen Vogue’s resident A&R scouts introduce you to up-and-comers who’ve got something to say both on and off their record. We’re not concerned with labels or throwing out descriptive niceties just to convince you that these artists are "the next big thing." It’s in their music and in their own words, and all you need to do is lend a curious ear. boardman wheels The American Constitution was violated in the taking of it. So when we say ‘land back,' we're talking about actual land return," Tilsen explains. "We're also talking about the dismantling of many of the systems of white supremacy that have been created to maintain our land being stolen from us. So at the same time we're fighting for physical land back, it's not possible for goals to be fully accomplished if we're not dismantling the system.” boardman wheels So, the story goes like this: A 23-year-old piano prodigy from Texas won the Tchaikovsky International Piano Competition in Moscow in 1958. The problem? It was during the Cold War, and obviously people weren't on the friendliest of terms. But him winning kind of changed things, and even though they weren't sure if an American should take home the grand prize, an eight-minute standing ovation made the judges realize he was the only one who deserved to get it, bringing some sort of peace between two nations that really needed it. (Don't worry, history lesson is now adjourned.) boardman wheels
