      I have a suggestion
      Make a list for non-western composers' classical pieces(like turkish or Asian)and these pieces will be selected by your fans
      My recommendation for the arab composers (I am Arab)
      Will be al-sharq symphony by marcel khalifa (Istanbul orchestra recording first movement)
      and the second symphony by abu bakr khairat (first movement)
      Note: sorry for my bad English

      @Speary001 well said and brings to mind something I have been thinking about since satellite dishes spread all over the planet. Imagine all the obvious misery of living in abject poverty and then add the fact that you can now see how comfortable, sexy, fun, interesting, amusing and marvelous many other places on the planet are? A special torture indeed. It wasn't long ago that, besides seeing a lord or lady passing by in a fine carriage and a mounted knight or two, you'd pretty much just be surrounded by other poor your whole life Pulling turnips and eating gruel. Now, millions risk life and limb to get somewhere that does suck as badly as where they are from.

      The music is inspired by Ennio Morricone, which gives it a certain culturally infused setting of the American West. Yet it is the opposite of a "western" movie set. There is no frontier left to exploit and the system can't cope. It's claustrophobic. Instead of riding off into the sunset, you're riding off into a black pit.

    Wow, the first photo is from Łódź - the city in Poland, I'm actually live in. And it really has dystopia vibes, especially this time of year but I still love it. To anyone reading this - if you'll ever have an option, come and visit Łódź. It's not so popular as Warsaw, Cracow or Gdańsk but its worth of exploring - post-industrial scenery, paradoxes like some pretty, restored building next to ratty one. Nor most beautiful city, neither the best to live in but interesting, original - that's for sure

      It's depopulating the most quickly out of the big cities - it's already fallen from the 2nd to the 3rd largest one in the country, and it's set to be overtaken again in a matter of years I believe.
      David Lynch was known to appreciate Łódź for its vibe; now Lynch being Lynch, this already tells you something : )
      Its own inhabitants don't seem to be infatuated very much (as reapatedly evidenced by life satisfaction polls, and how they're "voting with their feet", given that the city gets left by more people than it attracts).
      One advantage for a curious tourist is that it's located conveniently near Warsaw, so it's not hard to arrange a trip within a trip.
      It is also known for great (and moderately priced, especially compared to Warsaw) restaurants and pubs - this, sure.
      With all due respect for its lovers though, it wouldn't be near the top of my list if I were to pick a place to live (within Poland) : )

It's not enough to just know.. but to become One with everything and to want to expand higher and higher and higher and unified with none other than Him, the Creator.

    To people coming to terms with the advent of dystopia: I have already lived in one my entire life. I live in a country where I cannot speak out against the government, people are being sent to jail for life for holding elections, and the opposition to our draconian and oppressive government dwindles every day. It always starts in the smallest places and inches up, until you realise it is all around you and there is nothing you can do.
    Rejecting dystopia partly comes from finding fulfilling happiness in yourself. I still write poetry, read books, even as everything falls apart outside. It may feel paralysing and all-encompassing, but so long as you can do something you enjoy at this moment of time, then this life is not in vain.

    My favorite dystopian book so far is probably Fahrenheit 451: the way in which the plot develops, and Montag slowly begins to renounce the ''perfect society'' is fantastic. The moral incites us to go beyond pleasure and fear to pursue knowledge, to be fearless and free from the oppressive thumb of ignorance.

    For anyone scrolling through the comments and struggling with despair: things were always bad. It may seem like they're especially bad right now, but I can assure you this was always like this. Humanity has always existed in various states of suffering and disconnect, the background and ways we adapt to it just changes as our minds evolve.
    The important thing is to not get caught up in it. Look for your happiness when you can. Cry when you need to. We're living through the fall of Rome, the French Revolution, the aftermath of war, the beginning of war, the moment when mothers realized their own country was selling their children, the start of human trafficking, the forced labor of millions of children from hundreds of lands.
    Humans always sucked. Don't think too deep about it and try to make sure YOU don't contribute to the suck. Be kind to people around you. Do a favor for a loved one. Learn a language. Learn to make pottery. Paint or write something. Compliment someone on their sweater.
    It still matters.
    It always mattered.

    When you come from a third world country, where you have to get up everyday, go out to find any food and you don't know if you will be able to come back home safe, or even alive... It's when you realize you live in a dystopia, isolated from the rest of the world that seems to do so well.
    I used to describe the place where I come from like an alternate reality of The Walking Dead. No resources, no water, no food, no electricity. Just famine, anger and selfishness to survive every second of the day. Nothing is for sure and anything can change in just a moment, even your own fate. The fear of waking up in the total collapse of a society that still tries to function with everything against, the melancholy on everyone's eyes because they know this will not change in many years from now... Yet seeing beauty within despair and destruction. The leftovers and corpses of huge business buildings and what used to be a thriving community, the loneliness of empty constructions full of plants and graffittis after being abandoned for so long. You learn to see the beauty of a bird flying away, free. Children playing barefoot and dirty on the streets, or people smiling at you on a 12-hour-long line for some food or medication.
    Please be kind to everybody, as you don't know who is a survivor, or where do we come from and what we have seen... We are all survivors of our own collapses.

    What we could call utopia is how our mind operated when we were an infant. No clue of what possibly must be happening around. A world so idyllic, so perfect in all senses. As we grew up, we encountered what we call it as a "dystopia".
    Now, even as I walk on the deserted streets of my town, I see lives perishing infront of my eyes. I hear the misery and the pain through the walls of the locked houses. I sense the destress and heaviness in the atmosphere that surrounds us all. The heart that was once filled with love is now corrupted beyond it's limits. The people now look like dead corpses trying to get away with life. The fear so evident in the eyes of every creature be it an animal or a common man. The earth now feels like a rotten ball burning under the flame of vengeance and selfishness.
    For how long do we let the 'hope of redemption' overshadow us?
    Clearly, this is what we made out of what was granted to us by the ultimate power.
    Clearly, it is in our hands to change our misdeeds, to convert our sins into virtues, to turn our wastelands into paradise of wealth, to sever ourselves from materialism and look into humanism.

    In the beginning there was peace, it glowed like a radiant sun throughout our once hopeful lands. I remember walking among trees of cathedralesque size, among grass that comforted your skin as you lie down into the fresh soil. There was so much we took for granted, it made the truth that much harder to bear. The skies darkened as towers of metal and wire, the light of our sun was blotted by shadow and replaced with irradecent boards of lies and false promise. The streets now barren, no creature that touched it truly living. The earth now steel and rivet, an unrecognizable feeling. The change even happened to us. Our bodies twisted and betrayed to better suit a predetermined purpose, our minds once hallowed and sacred now an insignificant statistic amongst the wires and halls of number and code. As I sit here now, permanently affixed to the walls of what was once a home, uncountable wires and pipes affixed and digging directly to the dead flesh of my rotting corpse in a vain attempt of preservation, I tell you now. Forge the machine a soul, let the world see the grass. And most importantly, do not forget the sound of the wind. The earth is meant to be shared by bolt and blood alike. Embrace and change the machine bit do not fear it. For fear will lead to the towers of shadow and smog you see before you now. Walk among the trees hand in hand and show the world's beauty to all who inhabit it.
    This is what popped into my head as I listened, great work m8 and I hope every one of you guys know that there is always a light ahead you can make it.

    The sounds of gunshots overwhelming the city sounds. Just a few moments ago it was busy cars, now they're are stopped dead in their tracks. Paused, doors flung open, others running over eachothers corpses. It all happened so sudden, my mind raced. The screams of terror as others pushed to get out of the tunnel and onto the mainroad. I had always wanted to die, but now? I was running as fast as my feet could carry me. Suddenly I froze, others shoving my shoulders and chest to run by. But I kept myself there. My eyes flickering as hundreds of people ran forward, a child screaming on the side of a concrete wall pulling at her father's brown worksuit. An innocent soul to young to decide any choices, left with only a loved ones corpse. A switch went of and my brain, shoving through the crowd mindlessly. Keeping my eyes on the little girl screaming by her parents side. My arms tearing at peoples shirts to let me by, finally a foot away. Bending down as people flew past us, screaming overwhelming the child's soar ears. Pulling her to my chest, looking around at the hundreds of people before grabbing her hand. She tried to make me let go, all she wanted was her father. But he couldn't take care of her now. Finally being able to break the tension, I scooped her up. pushing my way into the crowd. What would happen next?..

    If any Filipino is in this playlist right now: I want to tell you guys to please continue and never give up standing up for what's right despite how extremely dystopian the idea of terrible history rewriting and repeating itself again; *Tumindig at hindi aatras!* I am one of the millions who has still been derailed ever since last Monday - over the news that the son of a late dictator, the one responsible for the greatest rob for a government is in high risk of ruling again.. And no, he is no different and is perhaps even worse.

      why are you so scared that his son is in power? he probably doesn't agree with the dictatorial policies his father made, not to mention he's actually popular, unlike his father who got absolutely overthrown. in fact, your country isn't the only one which went through this process. a daughter of a south korean dictator came into power in 2013 (in south korea ofc), and there wasn't any suppression of democracy or free speech (although she was quite corrupt). you don't have to be so frightened, because relatives of a dictator can have different political views.

    Truth, goodness and beauty. Love, kindness, compassion, gratitude and all that is good. Never lose sight of them. Strive to look for them in the people and situations in your life and you will find them still present there, even everything around you is bleak and looks hopeless. So long as you are alive, there is always hope.
    We can't help it as humans, we are attracted to what is good or at least what we perceive to be good, it is written in our very nature, good things attract us and we find them desirable. But we're imperfect and deliberately choose what is wrong at times. It just happens that sometimes, an average joe who chooses to do something wrong, may only affect a few people. But if someone or a group of people with immense authority, wealth and power choose to do what is wrong, it affects the lives of and causes suffering to millions. Goodness and truth remain a reality in spite of their wrong doing.
    As we tend towards the good, is hard to be constantly wicked or evil, even the wicked want reprieve from their plotting and scheming and have people they love and are good and kind to. Goodness will prevail. Those who consider themselves all powerful and continue to choose to do what is wrong or evil only delude themselves. The thirst for complete dominance, power and control is a hunger that ends in self-destruction. Our universe is finite, even if it is very big, it has a beginning and an end. Same for us, we will all die and be forgotten with enough time. We have this one life to live, how will we choose to live it?
    As individuals, we may not be able to change global events by ourselves, but the least we can do is to be kind and compassionate, show mercy to others by forgiving those who owe us or may have hurt or wronged us and by striving to love those in our immediate social circles and whomever else we may come across in our day.
    Simply doing small actions with love - smiling at the cashier, thanking the security guard at work, washing the dishes cause you know your spouse is had a long day, listening to a friend who's hurting or simply saying something kind or compassionate - may brighten someone's day, lift a drooping spirit or comfort someone who's hurting.
    In this way, a silent flame of love and goodness is silently passed on from the heart of one individual to the another, like a ripple in the water propagating outward silently. And hopefully, they go and pass it on to another person they meet. That's how we will change the world.

    3:49 am. Im sitting in the balcony, watching half destroyed wooden house. Its been here since I been born. Trees already start to break through the roof, and I can see the rooms through broken windows. There is an old concrete house behind it. It has very small and cold rooms, because it was made in the years of great despair for places to live in. Even further I see some brick buildings with some rooms with lights on. I wonder why these people still awake and what are they thinking of. Between the wooden house and my home, there is an empty space. There was a house once. I remember, as a kid, i was watching people taking water there, while some kids were playing in the garden. Where are they now? Some guy bought that house just to destroy it and build something on that land. He never did so. There is some school to the right from the wooden house. Even still, when I wake up, I sometimes hear students play and laugh during their PE lesson. I dont know why, but this makes me happy. 4:14 am. Sun is rising. It is time to go sleep, there is work to be done.

    Hyperorganisms are not bad, they are not evil, they can't think or feel, that's all.
    It seems dystopian, but it was always what it meant to be. This was where we were going, without hesitation. We were destined from the start to create hyperorganisms. They do not feel, think nor care. They do what any other creature would do and evolve to do, they do whatever makes them bigger and stronger against competitors.
    The superiority of hyperorganisms compared to superorganisms always both fascinated and terrified me. Indıviduals are nothing but dead atoms that form their bodies, no emotions, no thought, only mere particles that follow what rules were set for them. This realization of the existence of hyperorganisms made me question the very structure of cells and atoms that make up our body. In fact, we have literally no way to tell whether they are alive or not. We just mind our business without a care.
    We wouldn't be able to tell if any hyperorganism would develop any kind of brain-like structure, and this terrifies me. Their rules are way beyond our comprehension. They wouldn't have sensory organs like eyes, they are not made of atoms but from people. We can always predict the currently existing hyperorganisms, but how long will it take until we no more can?
    I have been disappointed by the population that I hear nothing about hyperorganisms, it is not even a real word yet. Nobody seems to realize companies and governments are living, breathing hyperorganisms. They are just a notch up from superorganisms which are just a colony of ants. People debate about theoretical physics where they can't even go out and step on mars yet and still ignore what is happening right where they live.
    You won't read this, I just know.
    You are nothing but a piece of mindless particle that makes up a real living creature that is not so different than a single bacteria. Your decisions are predictable in groups, in molecules you form. The connections you have are quantifiable and definable. Reactions you take place in can be formulated.
    And you are no different than any other atom in structure, deal with it.
    You will not google what an organism is, what a superorganism is, what a hyperorganism is. You will never check what is real. You will never consider this comment more than a minute. It is just the way laws of physics work. Our psychology is nothing different than chemistry for these hyperorganisms. They just don't have brains to create those formulas.
    Google is alive. Meta is alive. Britain, Egypt, Turkey, Ireland, Australia, Japan, America, China, India, they are all LIVING creatures. Now, is it justified to hate them for just existing?
    Is it justified to hate them for what natural selection made them to be?
    Can I hate you...

    tw : childhood abuse & unstable mental health
    man so basically i’ve been abused ever since my dad and mum split. they split when i was 2 months old… from all the yelling i was be seeing with my baby eyes. i don’t know how i thought it was normal just because what my dad told me was “when you’re 13 you get to choose who you live with” i surprisingly don’t have any universal experiences that many abused kids have, e.g the cps talk saying don’t tell them anything. mine was a more it when i’m getting dragged around the house he’ll shut the doors, windows and cover my mouth telling not to scream or else people will think i’m getting hurt. so in my head i thought it was normal and i was overreacting and being a bad child causing so much trouble for him. all while i was getting abused i started eating less to feel skinnier.
    now that’s just the beginning of my life. i moved out of my dad’s house at the age of 13. i talked to kidshepline which started the process that took 9 months for me to fully move bit around 6 mounts to get out of my dad’s house and be moved into a foster carer’s. you might not say it was foster care because it was my dad’s biological father (he also has a step father) but it still counts. plus it felt like it because we were not close. i ended up getting emotionally abused and gaslit there. i just wanted to hurry up and move to my nan’s. i had many pain’s, all this abuse, and i had a very loved cat of mine called Jellybean. he still means the world to me and i’d do anything for him back if he’s still alive under my dad’s care. i got him when i was 13 and loved him so much he got me through nights where i felt like i couldn’t do it anymore.
    so anyways i moved i’m turning 14 this month and i feel so empty. the system is corrupted. most of my stuff i couldn’t move because my dad wouldn’t give it to me. he stole heaps of my money. all my future savings that had enough for uni is gone. i feel like i’m going to drop out and my life is ruined. even if i left him he’s still stuck in my head tormenting me. the traumablock being lift and realising he not only emotionally and physically abused me but also, let’s put it in a way that a father should not love his daughter in such a way. he would ask me weird questions, touch me, stare at me when i was in the shower or sleeping. i haven’t told anybody about that part. cps hasn’t gotten in touch with me after saying they’ll try get back heaps of my stuff he stole, it’s been more than 4 months…
    no child should grow up like this just to soon be in a world of injustice. im scared of men after being chased and harassed. keep in mind i’m still 13. all of this other stress is too much detail to go in.
    the system is so corrupted that no matter what you do your actions will have been influenced by the government. you cannot escape their presence even if we fall into anarchy. this was bound to happen if we look into the animal kingdom with their behaviour and then include our way of thinking there was always going to be an oppressive hierarchy that won’t let you climb up if you experience any type of discrimination.
    most of this is just rambling but this world is not something we can change and it’s a hard fact to bare with.

    In front of my eyes, the image of a large room with golden walls and a domed roof appears blurry. I feel like I've just woken up from a faint or a very deep sleep, my eyes are so clouded and my thoughts are so dizzy. Yet, I find myself standing, perfectly capable of holding myself up, fully strong. I've never felt like this. The body pervaded with energy, the mind drained of all of it. I try to move, but my body stays motionless. The view becomes clearer and I notice that the room is occupied by thousands of people, whose bodies, pressed together, prevent anyone from moving. I've seen this place before. A hand meets mine and holds it; I gasp when I hear a whisper in my ear. “Ophelia.” I recognize this voice, I recognize this name. It's mine. I turn around and, suddenly, I remember everything.
