Some Pictures of Langston

Dream Boogie

Theme

At the begging he said that the beat was a happy beat but later on he said it wasn't

Techniques

The theme is that people like something while they are young but when they are older they think it's bad. Therefore they change their state of consiousness.

Take rasicm, a young boy see's someone from another race and he thinks it is normal. An older man who knows about racism might say mean things to him because he is "different".
