study music tips + recommendations

have you ever put on some study music and found yourself not able to focus? here is my subject/activity study music/ambience tip guide to help you be productive AND chilled out

first ask yourself: what am i studying?

if you are working on something mindless like copying notes, the music you listen to can be much more lively than if you were memorizing information through flashcards. your activity drastically changes your ability to listen to certain types of music.

now that you know your activity, ask what type of music goes with the theme of what you are studying.

if you are reading a book for english, a perfect music type would be classical to make you feel like a dark academia scholar. typing your music to your activity makes you more motivated because it feels like you're part of a story.

personal anecdote: i had a series of powerpoints i went through and highlighted, so i put on spy music so i felt like i was a top secret agent scanning through intel. corny? perhaps. but really fun and made the studying activity less dreadful.

if you are just trying to get through the assignments at hand, use music that matches the energy you aspire to have.

we've all been there. four hours into a study session and you are just trying not to evaporate. final push calls for upbeat music, even repetitive music. i once put on megalovania until an assignment was done because it a) made me feel like i was in a boss fight so the pressure was on and b) just wanted to turn off that stupid song, so i finished the assignment quicker.

now for some recommendations!

hito lofi has amazing 1 hour long mixes, perfect for long study sessions where you want some variety in vibes for each block.

chill crossing hour combines animal crossing visuals and jazz/lofi with ambiences. this one is great if you just need a little brain treat and want to feel involved in the study ambiences.

want to feel like a lone wolf emo mc with a dark past and a thirst for knowledge? futurescapes has you covered. excellent for when my brain needs something to get it going but cannot take much else.

this yt channel singlehandedly got me through my freshman year of undergrad. built in pomodoro timers with themed ambiences to harry potter, lotr, marvel, and more. so studious and so much fun.

when in doubt, lofi girl's got you covered.

Dani's thingies:

So i was rewatching some old twoset roast commentary videos of agt to help deal with the shock of EDDYS LOFI TRACK WTF WE NEED BRETTS ASDFGHJKL which reminded me of the fact that china's got talent actually sent them an email quite a while back

WHICH THEN GOT MY WRITER *cough*ihaventwrittenficsorliterallyanythinginawHILEbutistillgetideas*cough* BRAIN A THINKIN'

What if they actually accepted it?

Look, i know this is an old idea with all the comments and people on reddit screaming "pEtIToN fOr bREtT aNd eDdY tO gO oN aGt tO dUnK oN tHeM" and such

Heck, even the bois themselves addressed it.

BUT WHAT IF they accepted the invitation at the time?

If i recall correctly, they were still in music uni when it was sent and their yt channel was still either ridiculously small or they havent made it yet.

Oh lol, i just watched the vid where they said they were invited and they said that it was BEFORE the agt roasting reviewing vids.

So, imagine watching chinas got talent and then seeing tHE BOIS COMING UP ON STAGE AND PERFORMING and maybe plugging their merch and yt channel lol

Imagine that this was sent to them when they were still planning the agt vids and then going "you know what, since we're going to diss on agt anyways why not show them how its actually supposed to be done?" And them on stage just SHREDDING PAGANINI

OR OR OR

THEY WERE GIVEN A SCRIPT SIMILAR TO THE VIOLIN PIANO GIRLS WHERE PIANO GIRL SUCKS BUT VIOLIN GIRL SUCKS LESS SO SHE GETS TO GO BACK

AND THEN WHEN THE BOIS READ THE SCRIPT THEYRE GONNA GO LIKE "this is bullshit, lets blow this popsicle stand" "but dude we're gonna get kicked out if we disagree" "dont worry i have a plan"

So on the day of shooting or the episode or whatever, the bois go with the whole song and dance. Eddy's on piano and Brett's just KILLING on the violin, the judges go "you guys sound like youre playing two completely different pieces but the violin guy can come back tomorrow, yadda yadda", emotional backstage moment about their LoYaLtY and fRiEnDsHiP, and brett agreeing to come back on with a zoom in shot of Eddy's tOTALLY betrayed face.

And then when its the day of Brett's performance... oH BOI.

He walks on, in a suit and tie with a mask covering his face. He doesnt say a word when the judges comment on his outfit but only waits for silence. He raises his bow... and BAM! FUCKING PAGANINI 24 CAPRICE. ITS SO SUDDEN AND FAST AND UNEXPECTED THAT EVERYONE CANT HELP BUT CHEER AND CLAP AND JUST DIE. And when the performance is done, the judges say "that was an amazing performance, we knew that the pianist was holding you back!" He smirks.

"You thought you were listening to Brett but it was mE, EDDY!" AND HE RIPS OFF HIS MASK, BAMBOOZLING EVERYONE LIKE OMG THAT WAS THE PIANIST ASDFHFKDLS

Or it could even be while one of them is in the middle of performing (after the judges tell them that only one can come back) aNOTHER VIOLINIST JOINS THEM FROM BACKSTAGE AND IT IS JUST THE MOST BEAUTIFUL THING THEYVE EVER HEARD AND WHEN THE JUDGES ASK WHO THE NEW VIOLINIST IS WITH "BRETT" ITS ACTUALLY BRETT BEING EDDYS ACCOMPANIMENT AND OH MY GOD- THE POTENTIAL.

The TDLR of my coffee fueled ranting is why the fuck have i not seen any good fanfics of our violin bois destroying agt?! I mean, it might be on wattpad but hello? AO3? Where my AO3 writers at? Answer the fuckin call my dudes.

looking at any sentence that i've stopped midway through:

"what did you mean??? '- in' what?"

the past is forever lost to us

Lofi alien beats to relax and transform to [f->alien] (multiarm, multiboob, transformation)

Alayna's favorite music store was fortunately right around the corner from her apartment. Today, like most days she was perusing what new music had come in. Alayna was dorky, tall, but with a trimmed figure as she enjoyed running. Her medium length brown hair that nestled just bellow her shoulders got in her face as she dug through her favorite section of the store, eight dollar vinyls. These were usually small indie bands, one hit wonders, and less than popular albums.

"Pttth" she spat her hair from her mouth as she flicked past albums of various bands she had never heard of. Picking one up she said quietly

"'Out in the pasture' by Karen Miklistins, naw too country. 'Be a man' by John Blokey, yawn. 'Balloon' by Hicey Dephin,"

She inspects the cover for a moment before flipping it over.

"Oh hey I know one of these songs! Score!" She excitedly brought the record up to the cashier, Brett. Who the very sight of made Alayna flustered. She looked at her shoes as she approached as Brett said

"Oh hey Alayna!" Her heart stopped as she quickly looked up into those dreamy brown eyes but before she could say anything in reply she tripped over the carpet. Thoughts shot through her mind like knives through butter but mainly

'AHHHHH'

And

'He knows my name!'

But also

'Shit shit shit!'

She hit the ground and quickly Brett rushed over to her aid. She looked up and tried to say hey Brett, but the thought of him knowing her name was too much so she ended up saying

"My names Brett."

"Huh?"

"Oh-shit-i mean how are, my name is Alayna, I was just excited" she kept fumbling her words before Brett mercifully intervened

"Its okay I know what you meant. Are you okay?"

"Yeah I'm fine." He helped her and once she was stable she tucked a stand of hair behind her ear.

"Oh shoot the record!" Brett exclaimed and pointed at the snapped in half piece of vinyl.

"Oh shit I am so so sorry. I'll still pay for it, im so fucking clumsy and I-"

"Hey hey, its alright. Calm down. Look, this ones free but you have to take this"

He heads behind the counter and retrieves another vinyl, this one black with three stereotypical aliens playing in a band surrounded by stars.

"Some guy with a very foreign name asked if I wanted it online, I said yeah but now no one will take it. Its a weird size y'know. But you have that adjustable right?"

"Oh yeah Brett I do, I'll listen to it tonight."

"Whats weird is I can't seem to find a band name anywhere on it, and the songs are listed in a different language so thats odd. So here."

"Well uh thanks Brett." Alayna takes the vinyl and looks once more into Brett's eyes. Brett goes to say

"Well make sure you tell m-"

"Wanna get coffee sometime?" Alyana interrupts but then clamps a hand over her mouth

"Sorry I didn't mean- that was rude- I mean- i was"

"Yes Alayna, I'd love to have coffee with you. How about Marks at 9 tomorrow?"

"Ill be there!"

"Well have a good night"

"You too Brett"

Alayna leaves the store, foreign vinyl in hand and heads home. The San Diego sun beats down on her as she opens the door to her apartment.

Later

Alayna had just finished her homemade pesto pasta and lazy tossed the dish in the sink. She rested on the counter for a moment, looking over her dominion.

The small apartment had costed her a fortune and for what? She thought to herself, looking at the small sagging blue couch pointed at a even smaller standalone TV. She looked back towards her cramped bedroom, somewhere she rarely slept as the couch tended to be more welcoming.

Next to the TV was Alaynas most prized possession; her records. She had spent a lot of money on her collection but to her it was all worth it. Seeing the stand reminded her of her brand new record she had gotten today, the weird alien one. She figured she could listen to it while cleaning up the place so she walked over to the small table she had left it at.

The record itself was a strange material, a dark green type vinyl that had a weird almost wet feel to it. As Brett had said, all the song names and even the album name were in some foreign language like a cross between Arabic and an Asain language. Alayna could see there were eight songs in total however.

"Brett was right, this is super weird. I just hope it doesn't hurt my player." She brought the record over to the turntable and sat it down gently. She then brought the needle just above the disc and hit play. The music the came from the disc was very familiar to Alayna

"It reminds me of like a Gorillaz song. Cool!" She then let the record play and began to tidy up her apartment.

The first song was fairly short with it all being instrumental with some sci-fi sounds mixed in. As the song reached its climax, unbeknownst to Alayna some changes had started to creep into her body like a foreign invader. Her nipples slightly darkened into a shade of forest green. The tips of her ears also pigmented in the same way.

The next song was also instrumental but with less sounds mixed in. This time, the tip of Alaynas tailbone shifted colors and elongated ever so slightly. The spots on her ears and nipples spread further, covering more of her ears and breasts. Her nipples also became hard despite the warmth of her apartment. As she was sweeping she had to stifle a gasp when she brushed up against one.

"Thats odd... eh its probably nothing" she brushed it off and continued sweeping.

The third one was longer and brought about more changes. The coloration spread even more now, creeping past her ears and down onto her cheecks. Had she looked in a mirror, she would have raised concern over the weird green spot on the sides of her head. Her boobs too were affected, with the entire front of each becoming a darker shade of green than her face. Her ass swelled slightly, standing out on the trimmed girls figure. Finally, her pussy began a transformation of its own, starting with a more black coloration.

The fourth one was Alaynas favorite as it had a wonderfully enchanting synth solo. Afterwards she sat down on her couch to take a break from cleaning. The changes started again with her tailbone creeping further and her ass cheecks plumping up again as the grew a more green tone. Her ears extended into elvish points, now fully green. Her boobs also were now fully green and began to get slightly heavier on her chest. She also started to fill out in her stomach as well, a small amount of pudge breaking through her thin figure. As she sat, viscous green slime secreted from her pussy and through her leggings onto the couch. Slime also came from her nipples as well, although in a smaller amount. Her tounge now changed, elongating about half an inch and almost seeming to start to seperate at the tip.

Alayna stood up and caught a glimpse of the goop on the couch

"What the hell? Was that from me?" She dipped her fingers in the pile and was appalled to see the green substance coating her hand. Almost on impulse she popped her fingers in her mouth and was met with the most amazing taste she had ever had. It tasted almost sweet, but not too much but it also had hints of almost other spices.

"Why the fuck does that taste so good?" She stuck a finger in her pussy and brought back a string of her green juices. While normally she would have been freaking out over this something was blocking her panic in favor of pleasure. As she consumed more and more her changes quickened. As she lapped up the slime she felt a slight discomfort in her sides. Dismissing it as her stomach settling she continued to consume. Her boobs, now green, started to push against her bra more. They continued to expand until the Alayna had the urge to remove the restrictive clothing.

"Ugh, normally there not this sensitive." She removed her shirt and noticed the transformations that had taken place on her breasts.

"Whaaat the fuck what the fuck. Why are my boobs green? And are they... bigger?" She groped at her breasts before feeling her nipples brush against something. Pushing them apart she spotted a little patch between them that was a darker green.

"F-fuck is going on?" She stood up form the couch and ran to her bathroom. Turning on the light she noticed how her ears started to shift as well. Pulling her bigger breasts apart she saw the little bump between them that was unmistakable. A third nipple.

The fifth song reached its end.

As Alayan watched, her third nipple began to gain mass behind it. Expanding outward into a pert little breast. As this happened she was struck with a wave of pleasure, she groped at her existing boobs and stifled a gasp when a bit of green slime secreted from her nipple. Overtaken, she leaned forward and stuck her tounge out, trying to reach the slime.

"Pleeeease I I need it i need it please please please." In response to her plea, her tounge continued to transformed, extending another inch and fully forking off. She desperately licked at her nipple, groping more and more slime out. Her eyes rolled back in pleasure as the changes continued even further. The pain in her side continued, masked by the waves of pleasure. Alyana slipped out of her leggings and removed the slickened panties before inserting her non groping hand into her pussy.

As if in response to her penetration her aching cunt continued its change. The pussy held tight around Alaynas hand but her leathery folds darkend in color as her clit expanded nearly five times larger. She was so desperate to cum now, she didn't even notice another hand coming in to play with her clit. As she groped two of her breasts and played with her pussy she had a moment of clarity.

"Waiit what??" Breaking from her lust filled haze Alayna was shocked to not only see the green color covered nearly all of her midsection, but also she now sprouted two more arms from her sides.

"What the fuck what the fuck what the fuck." She stood, not even realizing she had laid down, and look at herself. Her belly, which now was at least twice as big, was the same green coloration as her boobs. Her boobs now featured a third middle one with all three leaking the thick slime.

"I uh need to call-" she ran to the living room and picked up her phone with one of her new arms. She unlocked it and dialed 911 but before she could complete the call she dropped her phone and recoiled in sudden pleasure. Looking down in shock she saw why she had such a burst of lust. A thin dark blue shape had sneaked from bellow her and penetrated her throbbing cunt. She dropped the phone as the thing pleasured her further.

The sixth song faded out.

She grabbed onto the thing and pulled it out of her pussy. It was about two feet long and was a dark blue color. She pulled up on it only to receive a burst of pain.

"It its a a tail. Fuck fuck fuck fuck" her thighs grew heavier as her proportions continued to fill out but with muscle instead of fat. She released her tail and went for her phone once again. She tried to unlock it but only managed to get it covered in slime. The coloration spread fully down her arms and across her face. Her canines sharpened as Alayna's eyes faded to a dark blue like her tail with her now grey pupil containing flecks of gold like stars in night.

"Whhhyy is thish happening to me??" Her elongated tounge made it hard to speak without a lisp.

"I lookths like a godamn- the album!" She sprung towards her turntable as the seventh song finished. She grabbed ahold of the plastic cover and hurridly unlocked it. As she was about to stop the needle her head began to throb. Slowly, the background sounds in the track became clearer in Alaynas mind. The gnashing sounds began to make sense to Alayna. She took a step back from the turntable and clutched her head

"I need to uh, destroy the uh. I need, I need to BREED wait what...? Thats not my BREED. Ahhhhh BREED ME! No no wait I don't want to BREED or? I need to stopp.... I need to BREED and SPAWN. I NEED TO BREED!" Alaynas mind became corrupted, thoughts of music and work being replaced with breeding and fighting. She imagined armies of her kind, forcing the docile beings of this world into submission. The needle stopped, and the record supernaturaly floated off the turntable. Then, it fractured into a thousand pieces before reforming into a ceremonial necklace. Alayna-or Queen Laylan now, put on her necklace and began to make ready to depart.

Brett was closing up shop when he heard a sound from the backroom. It sounded like breaking glass and then a loud thud. He was panicked, thinking that the store was getting robbed with him still inside. He reached for his phone when the source of the noise entered the room. Gasping, Brett saw the six and a half foot tall creature in front of him. It had green skin with four arms and three breasts. Its black vagina was exposed and emitted a deep musk.

As shock faded Brett seemed to almost recognize the creature. But that couldn't be, it couldn't be her?

"Alayna?" He uttered before the thing approached him. She grabbed the shorter man with two of her arms and pushed him to the ground. While he lay there she pinned one arm down with a firm foot and stood there with her arms crossed.

"Wha- please... let me go! Fuck! Dont eat me pleeeease!" Laylan stifled Bretts cries with her already moist vagina. She sat down on the poor man's face and started to grind into his face. She left green slime on Bretts face as she forced him deeper into her vagina. Brett inhaled the thick musky scent as a little bit of slime entered his mouth.

It tasted good.

He started actively licking the creatures cunt, lapping up any slime he could. Much quicker than it happened to Alyna Brett began to change. Green coloration spread from his mouth out onto his cheecks. His ears extended into points and his canines sharpened.

'Aghhh I want to please my Queen so bad. I'm so desperate to please her.' He thought, not even realizing the changes. Arms sprouted from his side as his Queen finished using him. She sat next to Brett and grabbed ahold of him. She pushed him onto her breasts as he started to suck her juice out.

Bretts penis expanded, gaining a blue coloration as a tail burst from his pants. Soon, he looked just like his Queen.

Epilog

After Bretts transformation was complete he and his Queen fucked like animals in the records store. His light blue jizzum filled her up just as she had wanted. Soon, like the breeder she was meant to be, Laylans belly expanded with eggs before she finally gave birth.

They then spread their children across their city, and then onto the country. Quickly converting humans into their kind or just into worker animals for the aliens. Just a single drop of cum was enough to trigger a transformation. Eventually, humans could no longer evade their fate and were fully conquered by the aliens.

Queen Laylan is always being fucked by her servant Ber-ti, creating more and more of her kind.

Lesson time with Dani:

I think the lesson we all learned here today is that I probably shouldn't look down on kpop too much. But then, I have listened to a lot of vocaloid and read along with the lyrics which get pretty intense sometimes. I would give examples but Prof. Nic has gone through many a phase and I cannot remember all of them. (And some i dont want to remember)

So, lets get on with the... songs? Pieces? Lyrics? Shall we?

1. Opera: Verdi - La Travita, Aria: Sempre Libera (Always Free), Character: Violetta. Lol i seriously thought that this was a pop song I havent heard of. But when i realized how this game was gonna go, aka when they revealed that it was opera and a translation thing, i stepped up my guessing game. But like SERIOUSLY THOOOOO. Who could've known? (Probably the singer or a person who actually understands the language) But damn son. Quiz-sama ain't playin aROUND.

2. Pop: Arianna Grande - Imagine. When i read the lyrics, i knew iMMEDIATELY. Why wouldn't I when I live with a sister who blared this fucking sing day in and out. (No offense sis, no offense Arianna) But like, when i saw that Twoset thought this was an opera? Oh bOI. Thank goodness I'm great at controlling my reactions. Because fam, I would've laughed my ass off in disbelief like what the fuck. I'd understand Brett's ignorance but Eddy too? Damn. (Brett's lofi intensifies)

3. Pop: Billie Eilish - . I honestly thought that this was like- okay, my thought process had phases. First sentence I thought "okay this sounds like that one Arianna Grande song." When I got to the "set fire" part, I thought "adele?" And then when i read "burn", i thought "is this that really old song? The "and im gonna let it burn burn burn" thing?" As you can see, all my song guesses were wrong. At least I got the genre. And like me, the bois were learning. (Cue that bear grylls meme)

4. Opera: Tchaikovsky- Eugene Onegin, Aria: Ya lyublyu vas, Olga (I love you, Olga), Character: Lensky. Like what Eddy said, this one's pretty obvious. Also, "I can see why people like opera now. I'm getting old." "Why yes, I do love opera as well." I say, a not legally an adult person. But like, seriously tho. Opera is good. Granted, I havent listened to a lot and to be frank the only opera I've listened to all the way is the Magic Flute but like- its good stuff. Only thing I want is to be able to appreciate it better. (Also check out Patricia Janeckova's recording of the Doll Song. I love it, its wonderful)

5. Opera: Donizetti - Lucia di Lammermoor, Aria: Il Dolce Suono (The Sweet Sound), Character: Lucia. I'll admit that Eddy's singing threw me off a lil but I guessed opera. With... not a lot of conviction. Sounded like something Lana del Rey would write okay.

6. Opera: Mozart - Don Giovanni, Aria: Madamina, il catalogo e questo (Dear lady, this is the list), Character: Leporello. I thought that this was either some really obscure rap, or weird opera. I couldn't decide so I just let it play out. When I saw it was opera, I was confused. Then, I wasn't because I saw that Mozart wrote it. I swear, Mozart would make a killing as a rapper or some kind of foulmouthed idol if he was born in modern times. Also, small Edwina and Brettany cameo!!!!!

7. Opera: Bizet - Carmen, Aria: Tout Doux, Moniseur (Softly, Sir), Character: Carmen. Honestly, by this point of the video (when I watched it for the first time) I was just straight guessing opera. Although, if the lyrics were rephrased, this line could fit in perfectly somewhere in a pop song. And also, I did not expect the dRAMATICNESS of the singing when they played that excerpt. Like, wOW OKAY. I mean it makes sense for Carmen as a character... and the language they used it in... and the style of opera... okay I really can't say anything about the extraness can I?

8. Pop: Billie Eilish - No time to die. I knew it was pop. (Rhyme scheme and lyric pattern and subject matter too predictable babey) But the fact that it was by Billie Eilish was what confused me. Idky, but them lyrics givin me Taylor Swift vibes. Or Lana del Rey vibes if you slow it down and make it "dreamy".

9. KPOP: Blackpink - Kill this love. This one was sUUUUUPER ambiguous to me. It was very eloquent and poetic in a sense. But then it also gave out pop vibes. I couldn't answer though I leaned more towards opera. But when i saw that it was Blackpink's Kill this love? My brain melted out my ears. I mEAN ITS IN KOREAN ITS A TRANSLATION THING. That still doesn't excuse the fact that im very- aSDFGHJKL about it.

10. Opera: Dvorak - Rusalka, Aria: Mesicku na nebi hublokem (Song to the moon), Character: Rusalka. This one was very obviously opera to me. But dem kpop lyrics threw me for a loop man! I went opera but yall, I was dOUBTING.

11. Pop: Charlie Puth - Attention. Was there really any need to guess this one? Although, if you've never been exposed to pop music and are hearing them for the first time then thats okay. We're all learning.

12. Opera: Mozart - Cosi Fan Tutte (All Women Do It), Aria: In Uomini in Soldati (In men, in soldiers), Character - Despina. I sincerely thought that this was a really obscure rap. And I wasn't surprised when it said that Mozart wrote this opera. (His creepy smiling face tho...)

13. Pop: Justin Bieber - Sorry. Like I said in number 11, was there really any need to guess. And Brett's (albeit braindead) singing of Super Junior's Sorry Sorry is- aUGHCK MY STAN HEART. I WAS ALREADY SLAUGHTERED BY HIM WEARING THE VIOLIN BUTTON UP AND HIS ADORABLENESS AND HIS DADDYNESS OTHER NON ADORABLE QUALITIES. Ughhhhh. Jesus christ i really have to simp for Brett in each of these posts huh?

14. Pop: Taylor Swift - Delicate. I thought that this was fOR SURE an Arianna Grande song. Because of that one song with the sleep thing. But ugh, Eddy's assumption of the song was just too good not to be mentioned. (And also because i need to fill these paragraphs but like- dat voice dow) And oh gOD SEEING THEM LAUGH TOGETHER AND VIBE LIKE THAT? IM- wow look I just died of blood loss.

15. KPOP: BTS - On. Brett picking opera and falling off his chair is me. Quiz-sama. Mercy. Mercy pLEASE. Dude, translated kpop is intense.

Also editor-san was on fIRE TONIGHT. The sass was very string today. Fuck, i LOVE IT. Wait. Holy shit I just realized something. Editor-san, subtitler-san, and quiz-sama. The holy trinity of subtle twoset humor and behind the screen action. The cast is huge and i am a simp for all of them.

[incorrecttwoset]

Lesson time with Dani:

The lesson here is that even if you start your dnd session at 8, you'll still end up stopping at 12. That's just- thats just a fact man. (I wonder what their classes and alignments are in dnd...)

And also, fam I don't even play the violin and MY self-esteem was CRUSHED. Fuck, there was a 7 year old there winning the fUCKING MENUHIN COMPETITION. AND WHAT THE FUCK WAS I DOING?! DISAPPOINTING MY ASIAN PARENTS. (All the four instruments in my house feel like they're glaring at me or something)

But fuck, i still gotta make five paragraphs for each (embodiment of ling ling) child. Lets get our confidence and self-esteem fucking WRECKED shall we?

So, Wieniawski Etude Caprice no.5. Fam, even with one deaf ear (dont worry about it ill probably be fine... probably) i can still hear how fucking clean and crisp it is. Brett and Eddy are me in the first seconds of this recording, but with less understanding. I can only imagine how fucking cRUNCHY it would sound if i fucking tried that eUGH. Eddy might be closer with his answer, but Brett got hit closer in the heart. And i know that even though this kid wasnt playing on like, a full size violin, i cOULDNT FUCKING TELL MAN. (Probably because i cant hear shit through my right ear) thats- tHATS HOW PRODIGY THIS KID WAS WTF

Okay, round 2. Ernst Last Rose of Summer. Dude, the second i heard the first few notes, my mind IMMEDIATELY went "did they find a better recording of Vengerov?" Because dUDE. DUUUUUUUDE. They would be proud of this actual literal fetus. I know i would be. Oh gOD, i can only imagine the hand cramps and the crunchiness and the skidding AHSJSBWKDYSNDJAK I am Brett. My reaction is Brett. I only knew the concepts of playing an instrument when I was 12 and this literal kid just- okay, ill go dig my grave nowwwwww. FUCK even Brett and Eddy were making their asian parents proud, wHAT THE FUCK WAS I DOING. Ugh, its fine, i have a slight talent in writing and acting and the arts, its fine, i dont have to play an instrument its FIIIIIIIINE.

Paganini Caprice no.13. Seven years old. FUCKING SEVEN YEARS OLD. I HAVENT EVEN LISTENED TO ALL THE PAG CAPRICES AND IF YOU PLAYED THIS TO ME WITHOUT TELLING ME IT WAS A SEVEN YEAR OLD, I WOULD PROBABLY THINK THAT IT WAS A REALLY GOOD STUDIO RECORDING OR SOMETHING WHAT THE HELL. (if you cant tell by the all caps, i am currently loosing my mind. AND what little self-esteem i still have in me) I agree with Eddy. That accompanist is me. The page turner is me. Brett and Eddy staring at these children and their recordings is ME.

4th recording, Ysaye Sonata no.3 Ballade. Dude, when I saw the title and heard the music, my brain immediately went like "hilary, is that you?" Then they showed the kid and I was like "...this motherfucker doesnt even LOOK LIKE A KID." He looks fucking 20 and i- I-...Brett's lofi is just echoing through my brain right now.

5th and final recording, Hubay Carmen Fantasy. I can tell with their lack of commentary that their self-esteems have truly been decimated. Honestly, same. I just wanted to vibe to the music, man. This kid made these notes sing and I could just close my eyes and cry from the beauty of it. I just- kudos to you man. Kudos to these kids, they're all wonderful and great and we all look up to them as gods. Sigh. I want a sandwich after that kid fucking serenaded me with the music.

And finally, Bretts punishment. Sight reading the last piece, aka Hubay's Carmen Fantasy. For a first time sight reading, this is pretty good. I could probably point out all the mistakes and stuff he did wrong, (intonation problems, tempo, wHATEVER) i dont think i need to. Because our self-esteem has just evaporated. Like, pOOF. I'm just gonna enjoy and take solace in the fact that he tried.

Also, editor-san's little end card animation is just- it affected my heart in a good way. If ling ling potion heals your heart and Olaf heals your violin, then editor-san heals your heart. WE LOVE YOU EDITOR-SANNNNNNNN

Lesson timw with Dani:

The lesson with this one is that Brett really is a PureBrett artist. This man has seen the face of a god (mona lisa) and scoffed. And aww, he took Eddy to see the Scream. It would be romantic if it wasn't for the painting. Everyday, we glimpse more and more into Brett's mind.

Also, accenting the like button? Legato the subscribe button? Psh, so last... 40 hours ago. Now its ding ding the like button. And ding ding the subscribe button Susan. (Btw ding ding means ceiling in tagalog. Thats kind of the main reason i find the ding ding jokes 5% more funny everytime i hear it. It makes no sense and i love it) oh yeah i almost forgot to mention that were holding a mass funeral for twosetter ears. If you want to attend simply just play Saddness and Sorrow with earmuffs while fake crying because we dont want to destroy our instruments right?

And, thanks to them, I can now hear these paintings. And I can already hear pictures! But like seriously tho, this vid will really help new listeners listen to classical music because of the associations. I would delve deeper into the topic but its night and i dont think my phone keyboard can handle the amount of typing thatll need. So you should probably go check out inside the scores "how to listen to classical music". Great series of videos, really helped me dive deeper into the genre.

Also, hOLY SHIT THE TWO MOST ICONIC OUTFITS FOR THEIR MERCH?! TOGETHER?!?!?!?! IN ONE VIDEO?!?!?!?!?!?! (Cue rolbox death sound) Why must they be so beautiful.

And dAMN, EDITOR-SAN REALLY OUT HERE MAKIN THEMSELVES KNOWN. Not in the usual (insert snarky comment here) but in like- the editing skills in this video, for some reason, really made me feel like i was watching THREEset violin. Or like, editor-san was right beside me pointing out all the dumb shit and things these two dorks say and do. Like a pal, a tired but still dedicted pal. Or is it just me?

Also the tiny jokes and references like Brett's lofi, "Brett used escape", (cough cough davie504s "mind. Blown." quote cough cough), "...by Van Cough- Van Gogh", "and this is our masterpIECE!" (I genuinely expected them to say masterclass AHHAHAHA), and just the general banter energy really just- wow, look at all my crops tHEYRE FLOURISHING!!!

And also, dAMN I KNEW THESE PAINTINGS WERE EXPENSIVE BUT I NEVER REALIZED HOW EXPENSIVE HOLY FUCKTARD DUDE. Like damn, the number 5 painting? You could buy literally a dozen or more strads with that kinda money holy balls.
