This website is to show people new music and bring to them a whole
new side of music. In the Matrix Neo was presented with a choice, red
pill or blue pill. The question then is not about pills, but what they
stand for. The question is asking us whether reality, truth, is worth
pursuing.
The blue pill will leave us as we are, in a life consisting of
habit, of things we believe we know, the music that “everyone” knows,
pop culture. We are comfortable, we do not need truth to live. The blue
pill symbolizes commuting to work every day, or brushing your teeth.
The red pill is an unknown quantity. We are told that it can help us
to find the truth. We don’t know what that truth is, or even that the
pill will help us to find it. The red pill symbolises risk, doubt and
questioning. In order to answer the question, you can gamble your whole
life and world on a reality you have never experienced.
Here you are presented with the red pill, go ahead, take it.

Interesting comments about the different colors of the pills. I'd never heard of that before so it was kinna cool.
