Sigmund Freud has warned mankind about a fundamental fact, that’s very hard to be fully accepted. Well, the major part of human brain is not rational, and the importance of irrational part is largely prevalent over rationality. It means that all humans mostly do silly things, without any concrete possibility of improvement. In effect, human history merely is a collection of errors and horrors, whose repetition is not completely avoidable, although perfectly known. Despite, some philosophers have theorized finalistic visions of history, that have not only proven wrong, but also dangerous, as sources of social envy and collective hate, the two main sources of all the evils of the world. Alas, the fact of the above is continually forgotten, so that the best human virtues, humility and prudence, have often failed in inspiring the most powerful individuals, such as governments, politicians, bureaucrats, entrepreneurs, etc. Occasionally, the man remembers of having an uncontrolled part of his own mind, and abandons himself to peculiar daydreams, such as superstition, idolatry, and religion. With other words, non-rational thought feels a strong need of transcendence, based on the illusion of obtaining the help of superhuman entities, like for superstition and idolatry, or on the will of establishing a superior morality, valid for everyone, like for religion. However, even religions are necessarily based on an irrational kind of consensus, named faith. Sometimes, religions are politically exploited, and you might have crusades, or wars of religion. Other times, religions are considered as obstacles on the path of political goals, and you might have martyrdom, religious persecution, atheism, intellectual criticism, and so on. Beside those eventualities, there are cultural fields not completely rational, that can be inspired by superstition, idolatry, and religion. Of course, one of those fields interests the blog, and it is music. About that, you might have religious music, and irreligious music talking about religious topics.
The musical genre most obsessed by religious topics is hard rock. Hard rock is typical of Occidental countries, in which Christianism has a large diffusion. I think I can affirm that the vast majority of hard rock is irreligious, but strictly bound to superstition and idolatry. In effect, Satanism is not properly a religion, because its purpose is establishing the opposite of a collective morality, that is collective hedonism. Well, hard rock is almost always Satanic, intentionally and openly. In effect, the guiding principle of hard rock is an inversion of Christian values.
As written various times before, disco music is heir of psychedelic rock, with hedonistic content. Nevertheless, not many disco tracks are openly Satanic. In effect, immoral contents of disco tunes are commonly masked behind peculiar slangs. More than that, many disco songs are adaptations, or manipulations, of classic hard rock. For instance, a very interesting LP track of the year 1980 is titled “hard rock and disco”, written and performed by the soul-disco band the Trammps (US). The track demonstrates the compatibility of the two musical genres, that are defined “goody together”. It means that the moral inspiration is almost the same.
The mix of the page is a development of the main idea contained in “hard rock and disco”. More clearly, it is an alternance of disco and hard rock. I like either the concept, or the realization, and I hope to meet the taste of some of my readers.
