EDM: The Conspiracy Theory You Want To Hear About

Ok so this is crazy. I haven't even told you anything about this plot, and yet you would be extremely likely to believe I'm on drugs or something, which is a topic for another time... Anyway, everything you've every known is a lie...One could assume. To be honest I'm not sure what to make of this but here we go. You should probably sit down.

Electronic music is just a conspiracy to make sure people stay high, numb, disconnected from the world and constantly craving that next drop or order of wings. Now the world was first turned on to this beautiful theory by some internet person called Micky24242, and the awesome producer Hudson Mohawke turned us on to this fire.

Basically it all started with Elvis. People think of Elvis as some soft old school shit, nah that dude would have been on Jackass, he could have killed Keith Richards with his drug consumption, he probably would have created some competing company to Playboy had he lived long enough. The man was a savage, he was eccentric, he was a rock star. With all of this, teenagers were spawned, and so was teenage angst, and resentment of your parents. All this rebelliousness was simply too much to bear, and the root of it all was music. So what did the CIA do? Well, 2 CIA agents met 2 MI6 agents at a truck stop in Belize, they had beers and talked. These spooks thought that the fresh wave of adults, the first wave of these angsty teenagers, would be pretty unhappy with the world, so instead of changing the world, the CIA thought it best to change them.

To go about changing these teens, the CIA harnessed everything that makes those teenage years so fun: sex, drugs, and fandom. The plan was conceived. In order to eliminate any sense of teen revolution, the agencies had to harness it, creating a method for controlling hordes of youths. The infiltration was near total. The project was called Project Paradise and record labels, instrument makers, TV production houses, magazines and more were all paid huge amounts of money to propagate electronic music. Its aim was to create an environment where music and drugs go hand in hand.

Basically, the CIA are accused of creating club culture to keep people blinded and vegetated and seeking drugs or a high rather than answers or purpose. Considering how the goal was to create a scene where music and drugs go hand in hand, and now we have EDM festivals and shows which are trash unless you're rolling your face off, so I'd say if they did it, they succeeded.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
