Sometimes I wonder if I&#8217;ve got a bit of an issue, especially when friends suggest a game of cards and I swear I can feel the puddles of dopamine evaporate in my brain. I am content to sit and stare out the window, just totally shutter off interaction and ponder. In a metal capsule travelling at speed, it&#8217;s as if I shrink into myself, vanish into my own thoughts. <\/p>\n<p>The thing is, I don&#8217;t really think of anything. That&#8217;s the bizarre part. Or at least, I can never recall any of it. The moment a bell dings, or an announcement cuts through the air, all those thoughts slink away, careful not to leave a trace. I&#8217;ve been somewhere else, but where? I feel better for it, though, I feel refreshed, as if the knots in my mind have been undone and restitched. Perhaps it is my unsociable pruning method seizing its chance to conduct maintenance.<\/p>\n<p>\nLike a coffee to a morning, I find liquid drum and bass is the perfect accompaniment to these trips. It doesn&#8217;t deliver a mighty gut punch like the usual drum and bass you&#8217;re probably thinking of. Instead, it&#8217;s more &#8216;rhythmic chop of a masseuse&#8217;, shall we say. Think juice with no bits, the rush of a waterfall, a timelapse of a city at night. Your average drum and bass can be aggressive and gritty, but liquid really is called liquid for a reason &#8211; it washes over you.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eurogamer.net\/articles\/2021-01-27-someone-should-make-a-game-about-liquid-drum-and-bass\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eurogamer.net\/articles\/2021-01-27-someone-should-make-a-game-about-liquid-drum-and-bass\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If I&#8217;m on a lengthy train journey, or a bus ride, or a flight with friends &#8211; I&#8217;m ever so dull.
