Life and the World

Defective Music

Defective Music

May 26, 2021

Two street performers stood amidst the chaos that was the nighttime street, lit only by the bright lights of the skyscrapers and casinos.

Vinio and Vick sang, but the music fell upon deaf ears at first, nobody bat an eye, but soon, a small crowd gathered.

Vick, the younger of the two one sang erratically, and Vinio, the older one sang in a muffled,  yet touching way.

The two could not perform by themselves, but together, the music managed to make sense out of the chaos.

The commotion only increased, and some even started to dance and whistle.

Vinio started singing in the background, giving way for Vick to sing in his erratic, yet beautiful way. The combination of sounds produced was unique, and you’d never see this in another duo, it raised hairs and captured people’s attention.

Vick would raise his voice, little by little, Vinio would do the opposite, the two singing together in harmony. Capturing more and more people’s attention, the two soon were at the center of the city’s largest party, the bright casinos fading into the background, and the various lights dancing around the crowd.

The audience wished for more and more, but the two sides knew that it had to end. The two brothers dropped their voices, signaling the end of the festivities.

The two bowed their heads to thank everyone, quietly slipping off stage as soon as they did.
