Good question... It all depends on the song, the day, the time of year, the place I'm at in my life. I absorb music from all walks of life and places on Earth. It all inspires me and sparks my creativity. You're better off listening to me DJ or tracks I've made to form your own opinion.

"The way to find out about happiness is to keep your mind on those moments when you feel most happy, when you are really happy — not excited, not just thrilled, but deeply happy. This requires a little bit of self-analysis. What is it that makes you happy? Stay with it, no matter what people tell you. This is what is called following your bliss.”
-Joseph Campbell
