[Advertise on 4chan]


I don't think I even like music anymore. I've just spent so much of my life obsessed with it that it's the only thing I have any real knowledge of or experience with.
>>
>>130464993
how many instruments can you play proficiently?
>>
>>130465006
3 if you count guitar and bass guitar as separate instruments, but otherwise just guitar and drums. I guess I could spend some time to really learn keyboards one of these days but I don't know if I care enough anymore.
>>
>>130465017
ok how many albums have you made?
>>
>>130465023
None. I don't understand DAWs, never bothered to learn. In any case, the thread was more about being disinterested in listening to music than making it.
>>
>>130465043
listening to music isn't a hobby, it's something you do while you do life lmao
what kind of quantifiable knowledge, wisdom or skills does LISTENING to music require?
how can sitting, letting air hit your ears be a hobby
>>
>>130465161
Learning about music history, influences, trends, using concepts from the music I listen to in my own playing, etc. At what point did I describe listening to music as a hobby?
>>
>>130465236
>Learning about music history, influences, trends, using concepts from the music I listen to in my own playing,
yeah like i said, that shit is supposed to go along with actual life lmao
how do you make THAT your life
also what would you call it if not a hobby?
a waste of time? i guess
>>
>>130465505
Are you saying you don't listen to music? Or that you only listen to music as background noise and never actively listen to the construction of the songs?What is even your point besides being a huge fag?
>>
>>130465524
nah im not the one claiming to not like music anymore just cause i fried my dopamine receptors chasing the most retarded dragon lmao
>>
>>130464993
>it's the only thing I have any real knowledge of or experience with
grim but unless you're over 25, you're gonna be fine

>>130465043
>None.

XD
>>
>>130464993
how much of your knowledge did you put to use in the real life? can you teach musicology to someone? can you organize a movement?
oh you can tell me who influenced who
cool
/mu/ has killed so many souls it's fucking hilarious
>>
>>130464993
if you're gonna make a thread to bitch and whine, here you fucking go retard
>>
There is nothing more plebeian than listening to music for pleasure.
>>
zamn OP got wrecked. im glad i only listen to my own music
>>

>>130466329
Nuh huh
>>130466635
Cant find it on wikipedia
>>
>>130465043
>>130465043
The nazis were right about Useless Eaters. Consuming all the time but creating nothing is poisonous to your soul.
>>
>>130466635
it's only a hobby if it's active listening- i.e. if you know theory to the point where you are able to dissect every part of the track as you're listening.
of course, getting to that point is hard, but if that is not your main goal, you cant call LISTENING to music your hobby. if you are not thoroughly, actively listening and engaging your brain fully with the music, it's just consooming
>>
>>130466635
>i need air in my ears cause my feefees are too much
that's most of you retards here
>>
>>130466635
man i would feel fucking dumb if a girl asked me what my hobbies are and i say 'i listen to music'
>>
>>130466223
i know, right? it's great
>>
>>130466201
the board is dead, get used to it.

if you're a real person, you should feel bad
>>
>>130466973
yeah threads like this have no shill incentive so they remain open for random retards to just spew bullshit
meanwhile the BoC threads and all the other shill generals are getting bumps like crazy. strange...
>>
>>130464993
i wish someone paid me to call people tards
>>
Damn, didn't realize 4chan was so full of creatively fulfilled, successful, and well-adjusted people.
>>
>>130467327
Bro do you see the constant spam of utter slop on this board? Theres like 5 real people here, everybody else is pushing an agenda
>>
>>130467327
Look at the 'punk' thread up right now and tell me it's not just a /pol/shill thread
Look at the /wpop/ garbage, the BoC trash, all the random frogthreads with not a single OP actually posting in the thread. And so many more things.
The board is slopified to the fullest and you retards are blind and fine with it
>>
>>130467232
>>130467490

Truth
>>
>>130467232
True, just a single screenshot full of meaningless pointless threads.
>>130464993
This is what you wasted your life on
>>
>>130467618
Oh look i just scrolled down slightly and found more meaningless, pointless threads
>>
>>130467651
>>130467618
HEY LOOK EVEN MORE
also the jazz one and the sludge one are full of mostly bots posting either jazz charts or sludge metal album links
Epic engagement

Fuck all of you
>>
>>130467680
Forgot the image, gotta post it or nobody will believe it lmao
Fuck this shit board and fuck your weak brains

It was a sarcastic post, brother.
>>
>>130467715
Fuck your sarcasm, fuck you
>>
>>130465594
No one gives a fuck about your fl studio noob albums. It's amazing how easily misunderstood OP was.
>>
>>130467764
Fuck fl studio. Just get reaper.play your instruments into the mic, arrange the recordings, mix, master, release, not hard.
The fact that OP is bitching about being bored of music but has not given making music a shot is all i need to call him a retard
>>
>>130467787
>Just get reaper.play your instruments into the mic, arrange the recordings, mix, master, release
Why though? Why not just play music for your own amusement and enjoyment? Why does it need to be published on the internet?
>>
>>130467892
Okay do that. Im fine with that.
But dont fucking say you're bored of music when you havent done anything
>>
>>130467904
>In any case, the thread was more about being disinterested in listening to music than making it.
>>
>i'm bored of watching TV shows
>oh yeah??? well have you even created a tv show of your own yet???? checkmate :)
>>
>>130467917
Okay what did you want with this thread then?
What kind of discussion did you hope to start
>>
>>130467931
Watching tv shows isnt a hobby, just like listening to music, good work
>>
>>130467940
I'm very happy with the thread and the people posting in it. Your contributions were thought-provoking and well-reasoned. Great stuff. Awesome thread.
>>
>>130467957
>just like
so you admit the analogy was accurate lmao
>>
Maybe you're just stuck in a stagnant state.
I'm assuming you're not looking for NEW music to listen to(whether its current or older music).
What were your favorite genres/artists?
Often times we play music that fits/suits a purpose for a particular phase of our lives.
I'm guessing the music you regularly listened to no longer serves the same purpose anymore.
I'd suggest stepping off until you're in a new mental state/phase to step back into music.

rangebanning a part of the planet would be a good solution as well

why are you here then
>>
>>130464993
I've had this kind of burnout and it passed. Get into power electronics or onkyokei or something.
>>
>>130468438
Heh
>>
>>130465017
You cant play bass if you think it's the same as guitar
>>
>>130470521
Did I say it was the same as guitar? No. But they are similar enoigh in terms of the basic elements in playing the instrument that it is not as drastic as the difference between guitar and saxophone or something like that.
>>
>>130471517
The fuck are you doing here i thought you gave up
>>
>>130465161
What qualifies something as a hobby to you?
>>
everyone in thread needs to commit suicide right now
>>
>>130474126
If it's on the wikipedia page for 'hobby'
>>
>>130474436
don't you know wikipedia isn't good, use a better source of information
>>
>>130474446
Like what? Random intenet blogs that claim making playlists is a hobby and then accidentally seeing they're sponsored by spotify?
>>
>>130474436
Ok well what's the qualifier for something to make that page? It was just written by somebody based on some qualifier
>>
>>130474463
Yeah and you can see who, why and inquire about it
>>
>>130474471
watching movies is a hobby, so is listening to music
>>
>>130474471
no shit, the point I'm trying to make is that that's a shitty way to conclude something
>A hobby is a regular activity that is done for enjoyment, typically during one's leisure time
is the first line on that wiki, but this clearly isn't the definition you go by since that covers music
>>
>>130474498
Fuck is active about listening to music.
If you said going to shows or collecting physical media i would have no problem
>>
>>130474504
are you getting fucked up by the definition of "activity"? An activity doesn't have to be something that exerts physical effort. It's just something you spend time doing, and listening is doing something.
From Cambridge:
>something that is done for enjoyment, especially an organized event:
Also listening to music is an "active" experience either way, you engage with somebody's creative choices and work with them mentally through your own taste.
From Merriam-Webster:
Thinking
>the action of using one's mind to produce thoughts
If thinking is an action than so is listening.

Maybe you personally just let music passively enter your ears and don't have the capacity to do anything with what you're hearing, but for people where music is their hobby there is a lot to work with and think about
>>
>>130474603
ok looking at advertisements on the freeway is my hobby then cause i actively see them on my way to fuck your mom
>>
>>130474777
if you're /into/ advertisements for whatever reason and get something out of spotting them or whatever then sure, that's can be a hobby.
but if you can't see the difference between those two things then you're retarded and I can't help you. It ultimately just sounds like you don't know how to listen to shit if you're making that comparison
>>
>>130474811
Are you OP?
>>
>>130474923
naw
>>130474126
was my first post here
>>
>>130474972
Then i dont care cause you're not claiming you're bored of music
>>
>>130474979
for sure, I just came in to tell you you're retarded for thinking music isn't a hobby and I got your ass cuz you ended it with a "your mom" joke and then just straight up "i don't care" so I'm out too my work is done
appreciate you though, good little quibble
>>
>>130475133
>he thinks it's my actual opinion
epic dude
>>
>>130475157
>ok well ur mom
>i dont care
>not actually my opinion
cop out king over here
its all good though, we all like to take bait and argue for the fuck of it. You win some, you lose some. Better luck next time toots
>>

>>130466880
>>130466912
>what kind of quantifiable knowledge, wisdom or skills does LISTENING to music require?
a hobby it's what you do on your free time, that's all it is. Just say you dislike dilettantes
>>
>>130468438
Absolutely it would be very enlightening for everyone to see that chuds spam the most and then reply spam in their own threads pretending to be angry jeets and troons it’s an insane mental illness.
>>
>>130467509
So why are you still here?
>>
>>130464993
t. Christgau
>>
>>130473953
The fuck are you doing here you said you were leaving the board like 20 posts ago?
>>
>>130465161
5 IQ post
>>
>>130464993
almost thought you said "I don't know music, I can only experience music"
sounds like Immanuel Kant verbatim.
