Dadaism at its worst !

One's ability to speak does not necessarily depend on reading skills, yet reading can enhance speech proficiency, as can be observed in music.

The psychology of music delineates the phenomenon of experiencing goosebumps while listening to songs with rudimentary motifs and meaningless lyrics. However, developing a keen appreciation for music demands an amplification of one's understanding and perception. Personal preferences hold no weight in this regard.

It is erroneous to assume that a universally objective theory of music exists. The available music theories are predominantly limited to particular contexts such as the "Harmonic Style of 18th Century European Musicians" or "Schenkerian Analysis." Nonetheless, I do not adhere to any particular music theory in this context. Please enjoy.

Chaikin Records is the label of Brooklyn based musician Brian Chase.
As drummer for Grammy nominated rock band Yeah Yeah Yeahs as well as the NYC experimental scene, Brian stands at the musical crossroads of RocknRoll, newClassical, and avantJazz.  Chaikin Records exists to bridge gaps in today's listening world in addition to making available the vital sounds of contemporary sonic expression.
