>>122933032the decade when I was in high school and college.
>>122933032The 80s was by far the richest in every day: emergence of new genres, experimentation, huge and great output of mainstream music, it was peak era of pop, stardom etc.Maybe not the best era for rock but the most creative decade in which a lot of new things were tried, but there were few big classic names.

>>122933066The only correct answer.
>>122933208this, the 60s & 90s were both peaks for commercial viability & artistic experimentation/innovation in popular music, every other decade predominantly prioritized one at the expense of the other
>>122934264>The 80s was by far the richest in every day: emergence of new genres, experimentation, huge and great output of mainstream music, it was peak era of pop, stardom etc.this has been proven to be objectively false: https://www.pbs.org/newshour/science/computer-scientists-prove-80s-music-boringa lot of the 80s was defined specifically by reductionist reactions against the artistic excesses of the 70s

>>122936173>this program does not rely on preconceptions. Rather it allows patterns to emerge from [musical] data.”Fuck data crunchers. I don't listen to music for the sake of data patterns. Fucking moronic generalised autism civilisation. They break down all music using a couple of formulas: timbre, harmony, types of chords, etc. Then look for which decade was more diverse blablabla.Here's some news: I don't listen to music to tick some formulas. For me it's a lot more complex than whether it ticks some boxes. And their dataset training used mainstream shit only. They don't mention anything about Pixies or Husker Du or all the rich underground scenes. Yeah thanks, I already know the gated reverb drums recipe was overdone to death in the 80s. Thanks for confirming through "data" what we already knew.But that's not why the 80s stand out. There's no decade that spawned more new genres than the 80s.>“Rap and hip-hop saved the charts from being too bland” Just lmao. Rap and shithop are bland and non-musical by definition.
