Cheers, Daud

Getting your hands on an iPad could be much closer than you think!

Please!

I am, a theologian. A religious person, I investigate the crises that directly affert modern society. . To me, the namesake of the beat is a prophet to sound. The sound, to me, is a portico to opening the soul of the door, and I believe, the higher quality of amplification and precision is put into it, the more the soul opens, and the more we can actualise the concept of spiritual perfection, Buddhists call it the Nirvana, Muslims call it the Ul-ul-Al-Baab, Christians call it the beautific vision. Drawing closer with a spiritual power, through connecting with soundwaves, chanelling their own ethereal message, in the form of harmonious pings, jitters and jugs with thuds to the brain, giving it a cleanse, uplift. Which in turn, resorts the amyglada to reach the cortex, communicate cerebrally, and open, our eyes more. Your physical eyes, and most of all, your inner eye. These headphones, in my belief, is a neo-religious tool to that enlightenment. A means to discovering the depth of our souls, in our selves, through sound. The new mediator of spirituality.

Plato said, that, beauty is the splendour of the universe in so far is it still recognises beauty, and with Dr Dre’s Headphones to society, not just to me, I find it is a context that is still not completely lost to us. To it, we can still have a completely authentic, responsive existence. And the colloraries of this is that as vision, and colour, may be marred with obscene pornographic projections that feed our imaginations, what it can already do, music, creates images, in the fortitudes that our brains can only see. The Dr Dre earphones, if given to me, wil give me precise sound that will in turn give me precise imagery, thoughts and spiritual contemplation which will synergise in effect to form the spiritual axis-mundi of all things puritannical and good in my life..

I am a rebel too. I believe the norms of society should be rebelled against, on bohemian terms. Dr Dre’s beats are a cultural phenomenon. A stand against the typical. A beacon against the diluted plastic copies of sound, it is a pioneering, of origination. And that, is no paradox.

Schopenhaur said that music stands by itself, quiet alone, it is cut off from other arts. And I believe Dr Dre’s bearts will not for me express an especial feeling of sorrow or joy, or anguish or horror, or delight or mood of peace in the compoisitionn, but that which in the abstract, its quintessential nature is what we will grasp. I will reach new levels of mental illumination, sound-visual imaginary reflections, and most of all, a non-narcotic form of ecstasy, produced by sensory control, and the headphone control switch, i will bring motion to my mind, i will be in a trance, music can draw the bearer in chains of gold to the consideration of all things holy - that is what I want the beats for. To be a new philosopher of what this device, this device can entail for the imagiations, and holy considerations of peoples.

I have researched on it’s Saint, the man they call ‘Dr.Dre’ ever since the 80s, he has pioneered his wave of sound, his wave of thought, his wave of wave-ology if you like, incorporating it into his musical productions that has left the fans oustanded. Not Since Michael Jackson has a black artist had so much influence upon the proceedings of a musical genre like Dr Dre ; his Chronic in1992, paved the way for rap to sound, and it served as model for the future, his beat making was eerie, horror flick-y, the sound was multilayered, so much that on normal earphones, you could only hear snippets of it - this is microcosm of how if I were to have the Dr Dre Beats, and could hear the exact precise sound, I could decipher the metaphysical message that is surely left as an imprint in his symbolic tracks. I could hear the very sounds that made him who he is. I could hear the eerie joints, whispers and synths, bass and looms, ludes and loops ; melodies and jitterings all that combine to create an undulating force of musical genius that has spawned the careers of Tupac Shakur, Snoop Doggy Dogg, Eminem, 50 Cent, The Game, Ice Cube, Eazy E and NWA since the World Klass Wrecking Kru in the 1980s.

Some say he will release the greatest album, the holy grail of Hip hop, his final LP, to be released in 2011, Detox, which will singelhandedly save hip hop from its mortal death - I am an advocate of that. He says that he is in the portico to creating the perfect sound, that the people are calling upon him to save hip, that hip hop , the art must be rejuvinated, resurrected, put back to glory - and I, am wishing to hear his Detox, which will be his last album, arguably the greatest album of Hip Hop history after his legendary The Chronic and The Chronic 2001 which will feature a sign of artists from Lady Gaga to Eminem ; I am all for that, and by that, I hope the instrument, Beats By Dre will let me hear such precise sound.

With the advent of digitised , compressed audio quality, such as the advent of the MP3, and the procession of music synthesis, the quality of sound has gone in favour for practicability or quantity of file size. These headphones, will let me hear the sounds that I’ve never been able to listen to. It is impossible to get the quality you would get on a vinyl record on an MP3, and its not possible to keep a vinyl player around, so for that reason, a Dr Dre Beats would let me still have the closest thing possible, to sound maximisation, picking out the sounds that you thought never existed from the deepest cellars underneath the music, bringing out the core of the music, essence to my ears. Bringing vinyl quality, to a new age ,a new era and a new dimension.

Please give me these earphones so I can explore music, and find out the links it can have with serious study and academic professions. i dont want them just for myself, but for society too - I sincerely believe that music and sound can be a language, of notes. As it is for the Nigerian Yoruba, where people rely more on the sounds of drums and natural instruments such as the whistling of the leaves over the procession of language. poetry is from sound, from it proceeds finite happiness. Dr Dre’s beats would make it a modern paradigm of that very culture, in a new way, a new concept in a cosmopolitan modern way for me. Bridiging caps of cultures from both worlds, into one, into an instrument which will compliment my ears. Which will make me feel spiritually at one ; hearing sound like no other. Hearing sound like no other.

Dr Dre says he is working on the perfect record, the perfect beat, and he says its going to be what he thinks is the ultimate beat of all time - he says he hasn’t got it yet, but when does, it’s going to be on there - I believe Dr Dre’s beats will let me actually experiment evern further if the sound is up to zoom.

New science has damaged the quality o fmusic, compression and digitisation has taken away the real essence of music and replaced it with computerisations and minimisations, these Beats help bridge the gap between sacrificing quality for size or practical quantity, with practicality and size in itself! As I carry the beats to carry the practicality of the mp3, yet, stil retain the excellent, incandescent sound of the original track..

I want to hear crystal sound, diamond cutting and sapphire sonic innovation, new zooms and pans , i want to hear ear ear bang and burst, whilst the other throbs, back and forth, audio tennis, then serve it down the middle..wait , i don’t have an ear in the middle of my brain? That’s what you thought you didn’t have….

^ That is the philosophical, conceptual and introspective as well as inventive scenario having the beats by dre would put me in.

Digital sound needs resurrection, sound is too bad, a new modern revolution , a new stand must be taken. Dr Dres beats headphoens is at the forefront, but we must go further, elevate. If i was to have a copy of the headphones, I would be able to listen to it, and pinpoint the exact nessecities for how sound is lacking in digital compression, and how the Dr Dre beats, in comparison, bring out the best. Please let me be at the forefront of this.

And one of the most beautiful, simplest and gentle points I will make why I should be recieving the beats headphones…Is that I want to be able to listen to my favourite song, all over again, with the beats, like it’s the first time I’m ever listening to. The beats headphones, will let me.

Won’t you please let me experience that pleasure?
Please, I have given my heart and soul into writing this, and I implore I have made my case.
Please gentlemen at Ipod Republic, please give me a beats by dre , so I can bridge the musical gap between the nether-world - with sounds i havent heard before, this world, with sounds that i can hear, but there can be more to it, and the old world - the sounds of the past that cannot be replicated today . A three pronged fork to my ears - that feels so devilishly good.

I want to hear the sound so crystal clear and futuristic.. I wanna hear my G-funk, my rap, my soul my rock my jazz my blues ludicrous and lubricious and WETly good, i want beats that will give me formal excellence and sonic innovation in this art form to let me reach , and pass the final flight of the alone..

let me be amongst the reconaissance of audio bridging.

My aim for these beats arent just hedonistic.
They are political, social, intrpsective and spiritual.
