Explain to me what the “Chicago School” genre/scene was please
It was a school of music based out of Chicago
>>128272833It’s an economics school ya dingus
>>128272852Not true btw
>>>/biz/ is over there my man.
>>128272833just some bullshit people make up to make their group of friends seem special
>>128272833Mogged by the Louisville Sound
Stupid shit that only exist on RYM for autistic trannys on the internet.
>>128273550you should kill yourself
>>128273587What the fuck? What’s your problem, asshole?
>>128273597you should kill yourself
>>128273587Go to bed, Sabrina the Teenage DJ. Nobody books you IRL, your music is a shitty version of The Avalanches and your fans are trannys with zero friends
>>128272833This is a made up genre by the people from RYM. It's arguably less helpful than calling it Scribblopop, which is a genre I just made up that encompasses all of Jim's big works.
Nigga think he Ben Folds
>>128273645you should kill yourself
>>128273650rym doesn't consider it to be a genre you retard
>>128272833haha OP I love froggo XD
>>128272833Subgenre of post-rock.
>>128273550Is the tranny in the room with you right now, anon.
here you go OP not sure why the other posters are being so weird https://youtu.be/EanuiNxcVHk
>>128275064frankie has nothing to do with the chicago school retard
>>128275292nobody does because it’s a made up bullshit
>>128275307Wrong. Just checked RYM. It’s a real genre.
>>128275647it's not a genre on rym you retard
>>128272833>>128275647RYM bullshit term that nobody outside of the internet uses or cares about. because no one has gave a clear answer, it's specifically all the post rock-y jazzy stuff like tortoise, sea and cake or jim o rourke's pop work. but even that's a shitty way of describing their music and it's really only a few bands in chicago who were all friends doing that sound. RYM is retarded and halfway to a threeway had math rock as a label for the longest time
Cake is nice
>>128275704How is it not math rock?Didn't the scene pretty much start with Slint?
>>128272833>LOOKA ME! I'M FROM CHICAGO WITH THE DEEP DISH PIZZA HEHEH YA KNOW CHICAGO WHERE THE ORIGINAL GREASE STAGE PLAY TAKES PLACE BAYBEH!did i do it right?
>>128272833Slint ripoffs.
>>128278942Chicago is the Greatest City on Earth.
>>128272833Best music ever: https://youtu.be/OR7szKcx4lM
>>128277886>How is it not math rock?do you think halfway to a threeway is a math rock EP? it has elements of it, but it doesn't really sound like the big albums in the genre. but what do i know, i think it's a dumb term to begin with>Didn't the scene pretty much start with Slint?that's debatable if you're talking about math rock. if you're talking about chicago sound, they're from kentucky.>>128281541this is the tightest band jim's ever played with i think, probably cause they're all friends, but i wish he gave more shows like this when he was playing his rock/pop stuff in the 00s. there's some real stinker recordings of his fingerpicked/band stuff, the meltdown bootleg kinda sucks imo
this is a good excuse to post my long-running chart. what teh FUCK is this hcaptcha shit, haven't posted in a while. 10 letter captchas I'm fucking mad>>128273550this is the real answer of why we're talking about this now>>128275704>it's specifically all the post rock-y jazzy stuff like tortoise, sea and cake or jim o rourke's pop workyep. the only reason people think the sound exists is because these musicians were extremely prolific, making a lot of music under different projects and collabs. chicago (and tortoise members alone), still put out an overwhelming amount of music to this day>>128277886>>128280539lol
haven't used this trip in a while. post-rock is such a vague blanket genre that anything slightly mathy usually gets referred to chicago. britain had a scene around the same time. I think chicago school, I term I hate, should only specifically apply to the immediate scene there in the 90s, and with projects that followed those specific musicians. british stuff that's cool and gets lumped in with thishttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hslxfIQvN9Yhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BjBsUm6oCnIhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AnPbXOWzG1ghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AugGqztiEzUhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zOvDaQc3Ltw
>>128281709Have to add every single one to my playlist. Pure gems.
>>128272833Fake music
>>128272833do you mean the "chicago house" scene?
