ok, so there was a bug in the website that it was only displaying the title. Just fixed it this moment.

Now if you refresh your screen you should see the artist as well. That can help figure out what is playing if the track does not make sense.

Further point on the music, would be just to add that it's trying to cater to all without being sinful. Bass beats are not in themselves sinful, but combined with suggestive lyrics can be.

Anyway, when we do break out streams we can make it more relaxing.

oh, one more thing. 

There is another reason the music is a little different. It is because any copyright music gets flagged by streaming platforms. This applies even to classical pieces.

So the other day we were playing a talk with Schuberts Ave Maria, and it got kicked off Facebook.

The algorithms are just so stupid that they cannot tell the difference between the copyright of a performance, and the actual piece itself, which is not copyrighted. 

They err on the side of caution I guess.

So put up some nicer music fillers just now.

By the way, there are also short prayers added, which anyone listening over the last few days will notice is new. 

A way of teaching people essential prayers. 

Good propaganda :)

Bishop Williamson remarks that while bass beats are not sinful in themselves, they become so when it is over-emphasized. He explained in a conference on music that the point of a beat is to be at the service of the melody, in imitation of how our passions are to be in the service of our higher faculties. When this beat is not the servant but the master, the passions tend to rule in those listening and enjoying. The melody is also what elevates us to higher things, which is what true art is supposed to do.

This is a song where the bass beat seems to me, to be in it's proper place:
