Disco was actually good. Boomers just had no taste.
>>
for me its italo disco

there was good disco, the issue was that it became an inescapable slop mill. radio stations playing landfill disco day in and day out, in an era where you didn't have streaming and instant access to music. imagine if your spotify playlist was 90% 2017 mumble rap
>>
>>129461773
boomers WERE disco. all of the normies.
>>
Boomers were told disco was le bad, and they followed suit, entirely because some "authority" said so
They had no free will
>>
>>129464638
it takes plenty of will to reject vapid hedonism and acting like a nigger. that's the easy thing to do.
>>
Disco was really heavily a chick thing; a lot of dudes who didn't like the stuff were forced to get into it and learn to dance to get laid because Uriah Heep concerts had absolutely no females anywhere to be found.
>>
>>129464661
>some (((radio dj))) was told to spread disco sucks
>boomer ate it up
>>
Reading up on it it just seems like the anti-disco movement was a chud reaction of their time. Literally culture war shit, time is a flat circle.
>>
>>129464688
yes, according to the leftists who get to write our cultural history it was just a bunch of reactionary white boomer chuds being mad about gays and blacks making music
>>
>>129464688
It was just everyday rock fans. Whether it was straight rock n roll crowds. Or even punks. Early punk scene ragged on Blondie for doing that Heart of Glass song.
>>
>>129464688
Based parroting NPC. Fuck Trump and fuck white people
>>
>>129464716
gays didn't listen to the same disco as straights anyway they had their own separate stuff
>>
>>129464688
The whole narrative always seemed really overblown. They pulled a stunt at a baseball game and some people put rude stickers on their car or something. Big fucking deal.
>>
>>129464730
Madleen Kane, now she was unabashed gaycore.
>>
>>129464716
Of course, modern day shitlibs always cry racism while conveniently omitting the fact that the biggest targets of the anti-Disco fad were white acts like The Bee Gees and Michael Zager Band.
>>
>>129464638
There's more of a case for zoomers lacking free will than boomers considering they're addicted to algorithms.
>>
>>129464716
A lot of it just wasn't terribly good. If you want disco but prefer something with more SOVL listen to funk.
>>
>>129464757
Exactly. Subject got covered in a documentary, doc is on youtube, all it takes for a narrative to dominate these days…
>>129466051
>michael zager band
hahahahaahahshshshahshshshahah it’s always funny when zoomers try to drop knowledge because you just have no ability to separate massive artists from nobodies. boomers and anyone barely fucking knows zager hahahahaha what fucking kneejerk reaction would zager get…

if anything the angry white reaction came from fans of major artists who were dipping their toes in. like here’s a great Warren zevon disco track that his fans bullied him into abandoning:

the chic guys and everything they were involved with in the late 70s-early 80s was great. i haven't found a disco group that rivals them yet
>>
>>129464688
Hating disco came from the hippies.

Songs about
>Scifi future
>World leaders
>Historic events
>Bible stories
>Literature
Eurodisco utterly mogs all the competition, pic very much related

>boomers and anyone barely fucking knows zager
Wrong Zoomer retard, this was huuuuge back then https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PmzxG9kdZhM
It was a worldwide hit then, especially in Europe where it was overplayed, no wonder some of the anti-Disco songs straight up mock it.
>>
for me it's when prog bands tried to abandon ship and jump onto the disco train
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCAFez6Kp48
>>
>>129466148
Chic were funk guys who played disco to get on the radio but they didn't especially like the stuff.
>>
disco was seen as a 1975-76 fad that was starting to fade out during 77 until SNF came out at the end of the year and massively resurrected it
>>
>>129464688
disco took over everything, it became overplayed on a level that no other music genre before or since has ever achieved. an actual counter reaction was inevitable
>>
>>129461773
boomers made disco
boomers loved disco
how did they how no taste?

they also made all the music of peak music decade 1970s
whine about booms all you want but they did infinitely more than you (Millennial, obviously).
Zoomers have alread surpassed Millennials in all the most important metrics, too.

someone convinced millennials did the exact same ---- but with rock.

that's 100% bullshit
i've written about what happened before but am too tired now.
it had nothing to do with that tho - that just serves someone's agenda
>>
>>129466051
>The Bee Gees
absolutely massive legends of the 60s,70s, and 80s
>Michael Zager Band
absolute whos no one has ever heard of

there were plenty of white disco bands, why in fuck would you choose Michael Zager Band? lol

>it became an inescapable slop mill
This. Once something popular has a clear template this will always happen, just like Sonic friends. Some disco was kino though.

>>129464638
Bingo.

>>129468621
People in the 1950s thought rock music was nigger music you stupid /pol/nigger
