So here we are, ready for what is to be our third year in activity (starting
from next November) and I honestly gotta say that I don’t have the foggiest idea
about how it’s going to be as too many things just don’t simply depend on us.
Starting with the current technological revolution and its numerous consequences
on an already fragile balance as far as the music which gather us here as
concerned. But also the lack of real commitment of many of those who pretend
supporting it. Not to mention all those necessary investments in time, energy and money that we have to do on our will to provide you with the most acurate
space. In other words, I guess we could say that we are at some state of war
which you gotta be clearly aware of…
C’mon, once
again… We gotta be total fools keepin’ on thinking the way most of us do that
everything’s fine in the best world with THE system havin’ nearly reached its
main goal while reducing most of us as individuals as opposed to the ancestory
notions of tribes, then families. It’s easier to divide than unite, said Roman
Emperor Julius Ceasar more than 2,000 years ago and the current situation should
aptly show each of us how those who’ve secured to have the power have made
theirs his philosophy. As a direct result, we now see a whole bunch of people
totally left to their own devices, trying to survive by any means necessary,
who’ve ended up forgetting that there’s no better solution than gathering
eneregies and joining forces in front of such a situation.
Examples of what
has to be described as the result of our global passivity are numerous. From the
Nippons keeping on killing whales for reputed scientific reasons to the recent
decision taken by the U.S. Government to exploit the Alaska petrol resources.
Not to mention the daily destruction of the Amazonian forest and, to a lighter
extend, all those TV programs, about which every single of us looks like to
complain when questionned about their quality, without stopping wa-tching them
once arrived home…
Some of you may
say that we’re far away from our initial goal, but when having a deeper look,
isn’t that that the life we’re currently living is the result of all those
interactions ? Enuff of hiding ourselves behind our TV screens which, by playing
their role of filters, have litterally transformed the reality that some of us
are living into some 24/7 live show ! This leading us back to the same Julius
Ceasar and his famous formulas such as : ‘’People are unhappy ? Then give’em
bread and circus !!!’’
Some others
might be tempted to think that nothing can be done, but let me humbly remind you
how the future of our planet depends on each of us individually speaking. It
starts with the car we’re driving next door for almost any reason when we could
get there with the subway or some bus. It then keeps on with many of us avoiding
to select our daily garbages and it sometimes might end up with terrorism with
some of our politicians thinking that what is the way of life of the country
they’re coming from can be the one of the others.
What we oughtta
point out as weapons of massive destruction are in first misinformation and
unawareness ; the latest being the responsability of every single one of us.
Many of us are
complaing on their repsective sides about the current situation but, once again,
what do we do apart from reproducing our same ol’ habits ??? It’s the proper of
the things to change on an everyday basis, then let’s think about it and adapt
ourselves if not preview them instead of waiting on most cases til it’s too late.
We’re complaining about the bad situation of the business ? Have we really done
everything we possibly could ? It’s as well so ironical to point our fingers on
technology and claim that it’s also the cause of many bad things around or
consider that loneliness is one of the major disease of our Western socieities,
when we’ve never been offered so many possibilities to share the word and
communicate. But do we really want to communicate and, to a wider extend, do we
still now what communication is ? This, once more leading us to the Latin roots
of the aforementioned and its prefix (com) derived from the word ‘’cum’’ which
means… with !!! And the most funny thing, following this path, is that most of
today’s music should then not be considered as communication anymore, being made
by a majority of people living on their own !
As some artists
already said on these pages, being aware is the only way to know about who we
are, where we’re coming from and what we’re up to. We’re not doubt facing a
crucial problem. It’s really time for each of us to think about finding a
solution in order to avoid what should be considered as nothing but a self
destruction.
We at
IDMW.Com are more than ever ready to pay our contribution on that sense, but
there’s nothing we can pretend to achieve without you.
Be aware, share
the word ! MFSB
