Is scaruffi popular outside of /mu/?
>>127715734Outside of /mu/ he's more known for his groundbreaking work on AI but he holds high esteem for his erudite music criticism among those in-the-know
>>127715744>groundbreaking work on AIi haven't seen him mentioned a single time in any topic remotely related to AI, and he has 11 citations on researchgate.but i'm not surprised that someone who falls for his music grift also falls for his AI grift.
>>127715734I don't think there is a music critic that exists in contemporary public consciousness besides Anthony
fantano is the only one people know. nobody knows piero except mutards
>>127715734man's wikipedia page feels like it was written by the very nigga himself
>>127715734not popular but i would say several music nerds in italy know about him
>>127717821true, all the old head music nerds here like all the scaruffi stuffone time in a record shop i talked to a guy (maybe in his 50s) and he was recomending me all that stuff and when i pointed out the albums are the same in the top for scaruffi he got mad and left lamaoalso i think in internet music spaces know about him (which all came from mu culture like rym and some more niche subreddit)
>>127720438Fantano had to get dissed by Drake to be able to overtake Pepe.
>>127715846Which band that he shit on personally upset you? Radiohead or the Beatles
No.
>>127720694thanks for your input
>>127715734who?
>>127715734Nobody cares about the 'this is my opinion on music, listen to me!!' guys in general, not just him specifically. He's probably a nice dude though... when he's not shitting on musicians who are just trying to make a living.
>>127715734doubt it
>>127723218Yeah I never saw the appeal of listening to some guy talk about whether some music is good or not. Can't you just listen to it and decide for yourself?
>>127723229lester bangs
>calls journey heavy metal>says alien sex fiend was the at the forefront of rock>didn't bother reviewing the buggles' much more artistic 2nd album>calls mort garson's black mass album both an opera and a hodgepodge>apparently primus' wynona's big brown beaver is a "square dance" and de anza jig is for marching bands>half the "reviews" are one or two sentence summaries from a wikipedia page about band history>90% of the artists listed are surface level, puddle deep despite scaruffi being a boomer with decades of listeningThis pseud doesn't know his ass from his elbow.
