Music can help people in so many ways like when you are sad you can listen to happy music, if you can't sleep you can turn on calming music that doesn't have any lyrics, or you can put on sad music if you just want to let out a cry. Music can also motivate you or inspire you to do something. Music helps me by calming me down when I'm stressed, makes me happy when I am sad or angry, or sometimes I just listen to sad music because I just feel like it. Music also helps me fall asleep faster. When I listen to music I feel like I'm in a whole different world and in that world all my worries, problems and stress goes away and I feel happy. Music is important to me because a lot of songs have really deep meanings to them. Music inspires me to make my own music or learn to play the piano or guitar.

  • August 10, 2016 WATCH MITSKI's VIDEO for “HAPPY”
    May 23, 2016 For Immediate Release Watch Mitski’s “Happy” Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EJ0O2vDT0VE Puberty 2 Out June 17th on Dead Oceans Mitski will release Puberty 2, her fourth studio album and debut for Dead Oceans, on June 17th. The following week, she embarks on a North American tour beginning with a run of already sold out shows in New York, Boston and Philadelphia. After releasing the bold video for rapturously praised lead single, “Your Best American Girl,” Mitski now presents the meticulously crafted video for widely lauded second single, “Happy.” Directed by Maegan Houang, who came up with her own completely out of the box narrative, the “Happy” video perfectly captures Mitski’s idea of the exhausting and exhaustive cycle of the fleeting nature of happiness. “Mitski resists psychic death by constantly pushing forth into bolder textures, refusing to be meek and sedated even as joy feels compromised . every element combines to a powerful, tarnished fanfare that's neither joyful nor morose, but possessed of a strange confidence that serves as an anchor against slipping into either emotional extreme.” — Pitchfork [Best New Track] “It’s a song whose changes in tone and shape feel hard to contain, yet its message is ebb-tide: happiness comes, happiness goes.” — The New York Times [The Playlist] “Between the St. Vincent-esque vibes and pretty melodies, ‘Happy’ makes a case that sometimes disappointment isn’t so bad.” — Entertainment Weekly [A-] “But although her lyrics find only a weary sense of dejection in the endless cycle between fleeting moments of happiness and the perpetual comedown of living, the song still manages to point towards a reason to keep trudging forward: it sounds so fucking good.” — Stereogum [#1 in The 5 Best Songs of the Week] Mitski’s North American tour kicks off the week following the release of Puberty 2.

    UC Riverside UCR Honors Capstones 2020-2021 Title Mitski Miyawaki: Resisting Normativity Through Articulating Marginalized Experience Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/5bk92526 Author Green, Jacob F. Publication Date 2021-08-13 eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California “Is that a violin? I’m Asian, but no… this is a guitar.” – Mitski, (December 1st, 2017) A Brief Informal History Before I begin analyzing Puberty 2, Mitski’s fourth album, it is important to historicize Mitski’s rise to independent fame, beginning with her entry into the independent music scene as a college undergrad. The following information is largely informal and common knowledge amongst fans circa 2012. The lack of a solidified, formal history is due to the nature of the independent music scenei, as well as Mitski’s private nature. The following informal history has been observed through my usage of Tumblrii, a social media site that is conducive to niche and independent art mediums. The artist professionally known as Mitski Miyawakiiii, who performs under the mononym Mitski, is a twenty-nine-year-old independent rock and pop artist, who cultivated her fame through Tumblr in a similar manner to earlier independent artists utilizing MySpaceiv. I will be referring to the artist as Mitski throughout this essay as I am referring to Miyawaki’s albums produced underneath her independent music project. Mitski began her music career in 2012 with her school project Lush. A year later, Mitski released her second school project, Retired From Sad, New Career in Business. During her time at the State University of New York at Purchase, Mitski met Patrick Hyland, a peer who was working on a music production degree.

  • Station Question Worksheet Station 1: Mitski, “Be the Cowboy” in 2018, Singer-Songwriter Mitski Released Her Fifth Albumbe the Cowboy
    Station Question Worksheet Station 1: Mitski, “Be the Cowboy” In 2018, singer-songwriter Mitski released her fifth albumBe the Cowboy. On The Daily Show with Trevor Noah, Mitski talked about the title of her album and its meaning to her as a Asian-American woman. Read the transcript provided in the station and answer the following questions: Mitski clarifies that she means “not the working cowboy but the cowboy myth.” What characteristics does Mitski attribute to the myth of the cowboy? Why are these attributes appealing to Mitski and/or her listeners who possess identities opposite of the media portrayal of the cowboy? Station 2: Los Tigres del Norte, Joan Sebastian, and Christian Nodal Los Tigres del Norte and Christian Nodal are Norteño artists, which is regional Mexican music. Los Tigres del Norte has been performing for over fifty years and have a large fanbase. Their songs are often corridos, a narrative ballad. Los Tigres tackle issues of the border and immigration in their songs, often centering the working class near the border. Christian Nodal is a 20 year old artist who combines mariachi and norteño. Read the article and analyze the pictures in the station, and then answer the following questions: How do these artists intertwine vaquero culture in their artistry and stage presence? How does the history behind Norteño music connect to the origins of the vaquero/cowboy? Station 3: Solange, “When I Get Home” In March 2019, singer-songwriter, artist, and producer Solange Knowles released her fourth album When I Get Home. Read Solange’s interview on The Daily Show with Trevor Noah, examine the images, and answer the questions below: In the interview Solange mentions that none of the cowboys and imagery associated with Americana and the American West looks like the cowboys she grew up seeing.

    ADHOC Editorial Senior Editor: Joe Bucciero Founding Editors: Emilie Friedlander& Ric Leichtung Copy Editor: Tyler Richman Contributing Writers: Miguel Gallego& Steven Spoerl Designer: Jesse Hlebo Events Events Director: Ric Leichtung Marketing Manager: Tyler Richman Letter Can streaming services be fair to artists? Is it worth paying for playlists? Vinyl keeps selling, but now major labels are fooding the vinyl market— so will the vinyl market implode? As long-stable relationships between consumers, artists, and music companies continue to break down, listeners and artists are being thrust, stylistically and physically, into a confusing new musical environment. Call us optimists, but the chaos appears to be prompting people to put the pieces together in myriad new ways.. These days, it can seem like cultures form not around what we’re listening to but how we’re listening to it—from audio source to social context. We can’t really defne 2015 by any specifc stylistic trends, after all. Arca and Lotic share immaculate industrial sonic palettes, but the former’s Mutant and the latter’s Agitations and Heterocetera more importantly share an impact on the wider listening culture. They open up dancefoors and dancers alike to new sounds, but also new identities and approaches to discourse. On the pop side of the spectrum, Justin Bieber and Carly Rae Jepsen both sing over increasingly of-the-times productions, but more exciting than the resultant music itself is the abundance of young listeners learning to love subtly daring pop compositions and innovative vocal processing. Contrary to what some critics have said, it’s not that the mainstream and the underground have collapsed into one another; they probably never will (or should).
