The second episode of this season is dedicated to really specific imaginary scenario music, or Point Of View music.
3 years ago two really simple music-memes started on Tumblr, then jumped to YouTube and went viral really fast, these memes were based on manipulated songs to fit two main scenarios: "music from another room" and "music played in an empty mall"
The songs were slightly modified with really simple audio filters: adding reverbs, delays and cutting frequencies, creating an effect of it being played in a big empty space or in the room next door.
The memes spread on the internet until it landed in several mainstream media outlets, where journalists talked about nostalgia, escapism, optimism and fear of missing out.
YouTube comments started to pop, suggesting new videos, and the meme developed rapidly creating more and more specific scenarios. To the point where it gets dark, presenting really twisted situations. Creepy, violent and traumatic relatable scenes.
All songs on this mix were downloaded from Youtube. And if you want to experience this music in full, you should go to each video and check the comment section.
I hope you enjoy it !
