Is there a music discussion thread?

[JinSun]

Or perhaps what I'm looking for is a sub thread of a music thread. Anywhere to discuss certain genres of music? Seems like we're lacking.

I could've missed it though. Haven't looked very hard.

 

[Mr Noone]

There is now.

 

[JinSun]

There is now.

Is it too late to turn this into a progressive house/future bass thread?

No? Excellent.

Here's a few I recommend listening to. Quality headphones are a must. Audiophiles gather.

Ascension - Blaze Luminous
Don't Give Me - Heartfelt
Ashes - R.O.

 

[Mr Noone]

I'm listening to "O Mio, Babbino Caro" from "Gianni Schicchi".

There's a " What are you listening to?" thread.

What would you like to discuss?

Mostly I'm curious about nitpicky things. Like, with modern genres of music centered around big bass and lots of "hi-hats," do you find yourself feeling suffocated by all the booming, or are you more inclined to say you enjoy this transformation in music?

Personally, I couldn't be happier with where underground music is headed. With the mass integration of remixes and computer generated songs, new sounds can be made, and beats thought impossible can be played smoothly. It's amazing. Thoughts?

I'm a player and engineer and producer. That stuff bores me to tears.

Do you think there's a specific reason why, or is it simply not your taste? You're not the first I've met who's said this.

Because interaction and development of a song, or a record are what I'm interested in. There is a life factor, a human factor that doesn't translate the same way. Plus, a lot of the actual sounds used are just unpleasing to me.

From a profession point of view, I can't imagine spending time making music like that. I'd want to rip my hair out, and jam things into my ears.

See, it iis not about reproducing the notes. There are subtleties and nuances that are lost behind the code. The human element iis what makes my woofers tweet.

So would your opinion on computer altered vocal songs be any different? For example, Hide and Seek or Global Concepts.

The human element is there, it's just different.

Those are both interesting, and I have that Impgen Heap record. Honestly, I don't listen to it often. I was in Chicago when the Industrial thing was HUGE and that stuff was just annoying. Then Trent Rezner showed up. All of the sudden Industrial had song structure and an interesting sense of melody. I think Imogen Heap has a similar addition to electronic music in that respect.

Unfortunately, only one of her songs became even widely notable. It's not a genre people listen to often enough, so no one would ever say, "Oh, that's Imogen Heap!" It's too obscure at this point, save Hide and Seek.

Once upon a time techno was all the rage. Every club played it, every seedy backstreet strip club had some form of it playing. What's seemed to replace those genres are things like trap and "gangsta" rap.

It saddens me to see these massive shifts in music take place without a second thought. Some genres I feel are untouched. There could be so much done with progressive house, yet it lies on the industry's back burners because that's not what sells. Nicki Minaj singing about getting fucked by 12 black men in the back of her Benz is what sells.

I love the new retro wave stuff....Com Truise, Miami Nights 1984, Power Glove etc.

Hell even new metal is fuckin' murdering it right now...

Thrashy Djenty 7 string chunk....and they made a banjo metal as fuck while they were at it. You can't even fuck with that shit....

The human element is in electronic music too, I can tell you a Deadmou5 track from Armin Van Buuren from MegaDrive and I can ID an unheard before Daft Punk track 3 seconds in.

Kinda like I can tell EVH from Martin Hagstrom from Mark Morton from David Gilmour even if they were all playing the same guitar.

You just don't like the shit, in reality a computer is no different than a Sax or any other instrument.
