>>128127660First time I see "Spirit they're gone" in the /mu/core list. Usually "Merriweather Post Pavilion" occupies that place.
>>128127660ITCOTCK is so bad compared to basically every other KC release, no idea why it's the only one people seem to care about.
>>128128579Because you are historically illiterate. ITCOTCK was their most impactful
>>128127660>>128127718>>128127744>>128128491>>128128518>>128128579>>128128745Imagine if /lit/s most acclaimed books were genre fiction from the mid to late 20th century and nothing else. That is what /mu/core is but for music. Any serious place for music discussion would have works by Mozart, Sweelinck, Bach, Monteverdi, Beethoven, William Byrd, John Bull and other greats who defined later periods of music as their essentials. The fact that the people of this board will read this post and only recognize the names they've heard in movies should say enough.It's funny that the board most dedicated to hating those younger than them also are unable to listen to anything older than their parents.
>>128127660>No Jacob CollierWhat shit is that
>>128128766there's really not that many books in the /lit/ top 100 that were written before the 1800s
>>128128874There at least ARE books written before that time. /mu/core has not even an album from before 1960 for Christs sake
>>128128766>Mozart, Sweelinck, Bach, Monteverdi, Beethoven, William Byrd, John Bull>Sweelinck, Byrd, BullYou have to be English or something to think that these are anywhere near as essential as the other composers you mentioned.
>>128128968Good job on being retarded
>>128128987Because Sweelinck was Dutch? Still reads as English because nobody else would regard the Virginalists as being on the same tier as Monteverdi, let alone Bach.
>>128128766>It's funny that the board most dedicated to hating those younger than them also are unable to listen to anything older than their parents.Based.
>>128129033Being a soulless low IQ retard is not based
>>128127660That's basically the key to making a good album. Now go make one.
>>128127660It's easy to hate on /mu/core now that it's mainstream and the captain of the cheer team at your school listens to Loveless. Must suck to be a zoomer, not getting to have anything cool.
>>128128901Maybe that's because albums only appeared in the 50s ?, and before that there were only singles ?, and before the 20th century there were only music boxes ? ever thought of that ?. Also, classic music has no vocals, or many of the elements that form the modern understanding of a song, it's like edm, but without all the effects, and way less cool.
>>128129145Baiting is not funny when retards actually believe what you wrote
>>128127660i dont think you understand the point of mu core. its a platform with which a normie builds off to discover more interesting music. all these albums are like bottle openers for new genres to people.
>>128127660desu untrue and exmilitary are quite the acquired tastes, one sounds of pace and badly mixed the first time you listen to it, and the other... sounds scary D:
>>128129805>albums are like bottle openers for new genres to people.Best analogy I've seen in a while.
>>128130451>>128129805None of the genres it introduces are in any way interesting to listen to, so its moot either way you look at it
>>128129805>all these albums are like bottle openers for new genres to peoplethat's the claim, but in reality it only opens one bottle that contains more of the same. what if someone really likes bluegrass and they don't know it yet? tough shit, we only allow sad nerd music here.
>>128128766>thinks he can directly compare music with literature >claims older is better and>doesn’t understand eitherYour funny
>>128130575>>thinks he can directly compare music with literatureIn what regard is it less fair to compare literature to music on this front? I am talking about the respect for the medium's most important works here, it's not some magical thing that exclusively exists in one medium, retard.>>claims older is better andWhere the fuck did I claim older is better you sanctimonious shitstain? I'm not asking you to listen to fucking greek or tribal melodies, now am I?>>doesn’t understand eitherClearly better than you do, you cannot even understand a simple post on a Mongolian basket weaving forum. Let alone a whole artform. You should probably get a different hobby.>Your funny*you'reYou cannot even write properly either.
When thinking of the past we can remember some better times and this can make us sad for the current situation, we should’ve been more aware and thankful of those good times and we should be more thankful now and grateful not that things aren’t worse but that we can find something good in any circumstance
>>128130601see >>128129255I saw a dream during my nap
>>128130621this isn't as universal as you think
>>128130635I accept your consession, please stop browsing this board and get a different hobby. You clearly do not understand art, /v/ might be the right place for you
>>128128766Classical music has no percussion or rhythm. It’s an outdated, inferior form of music.
>>128130659>No percussionBass drum, snare drum, tenor drum, field drum, tambourine, triangle, cymbals, castanets, tam-tam, whip (or slapstick), ratchet, anvil, sleigh bells, wood block, gong, rattle, thunder sheet, wind machine, bell tree.>rhythmClassical music has more rhythmic variety and complexity than any music from /mu/core, what is your retarded ass even talking about lmfao
>>128130725>Bass drum, snare drum, tenor drum, field drum, tambourine, triangle, cymbals, castanets, tam-tam, whip (or slapstick), ratchet, anvil, sleigh bells, wood block, gong, rattle, thunder sheet, wind machine, bell tree.Thank you for the good list of instruments never included in classical music
>>128130741So you just don't listen to it? Plenty use it quite liberally. Regardless, percussive instruments are not musical and should only be used for effect. The only one that has any value is timpani.It's clear you don't actually like music if you need non-musical sounds to make it enjoyable for you. Listen to ASMR at that point, or get a different hobby.
>in this episode a /lit/izen arrives to tell the gang they need to start with their own greeks
>>128128518i found out about it off of older versions of those charts, i think it used to be the representative anco album on mu before mppcaptcha: D0XX4
>>128127660All but ONE are good albums
>>128127660>acquired tasteno such thing in musiconly posers force themselves to like things
>>128131500Get a different hobby, you clearly do not understand this one.
>>128127660Jesus this was legitimately embarrassing to read
>>128128766maybe more like if /lit/'s acclaimed stuff was mostly science fiction and dystopian futures.now that i typed it out...is it mostly science fiction and dystopian futures?
Loveless > Kid A > OKC > ITAOTS > ITCOTCK > MBDTF > MPPI don't acknowledge /mu/core past this point.
>did i miss anything?The psy op part
>>128129145So you admit you only care about albums in music.
>>128130655>implying video games can't be art
>>128133260Yes
>>128127799VdGG is better than both of them.
>>128129805That's how it should be, but most people never go beyond those albums and then go on to argue that those the "best", as if they've somehow found a secret endgame of their musical journey by which they can now gloat over their "superior" musical taste. Really they're only just begun scratching the surface.
>>128127660Alright anons I fixed /mu/ core for you guys.>removed the ones that weren't music >replaced the others with better albumsYour welcome.
>>128136989Almost perfect but put boces and squarepusher in there and then I'll be happy
>>128128766Classical music was more like an event, not something that you could listen to at any time anywhere, like going to see a play but it's music, the music made in the last 70 or so years is music you can listen to anywhere or any time in any place which causes some seperation from the music before it, its not really comparable to books that could have always been read at any place at will
>>128138601>Classical music was more like an event, not something that you could listen to at any time anywhereBut not really? Maybe big orchestral works, but even then those had chamber renditions or piano reductions. Most people back then either knew a musician who could play for social gatherings or were ones themselves. Just because most people didn't hear Beethoven's fifth in it's original orchestral version doesn't mean they weren't familiar with it either through Czerny's piano reductions or the hundreds of other chamber versions of that work. And depending on the instrument, you absolutely could listen at any place at any time as instruments like Violin and Flute had plenty of pieces written solo for them. Bach's Chaconne could be listened to either in a concert hall, the home, or the top of the mountain.>the music made in the last 70 or so years is music you can listen to anywhere or any time in any place which causes some seperation from the music before it, its not really comparable to books that could have always been read at any place at willMusic was literally published as literature, you can read the score at any place and any time. If you couldn't, you wouldn't (and still dont) have any business discussing music in the first place.
>>128140041not him but I’ve an idea it’s more like comparing modern film with theatre, like you don’t compare a Shakespeare play with a James Cameron film because they aren’t the same medium and written music isn’t the same as a recorded album
>>128140801Except film and theatre are fundamentally different in a way that music isn't
