Is he?
Do you really care what fantano has to sayBe honest op
>>130913952Worse, he's Jewish
i think people misunderstand what cringe actually is... somewhere along the way we decided the worst possible thing a person could be was visibly sincere. like its somehow more respectable to be permanently detached than to care about something enough to embarrass yourself over it. i dont really buy that anymore. i think feeling cringe is just your social instincts reminding you that other people exist... and posting something cringe usually just means you valued self expression more than perfect image management for five minutes.maybe the internet accidentally trained everyone into becoming their own public relations manager. every sentence gets focus tested in your head before you press send until eventually theres nothing left but irony and plausible deniability. idk... i think i'd rather read something painfully earnest than something flawlessly curated. at least one of those feels like it came from a real person. maybe cringe isnt the opposite of cool... maybe its just what authenticity looks like before enough people agree to imitate it.
>>130914015Rick Rubin is not someone I would describe as painfully earnest however. Performative and eager maybe
>>130914038i dont know him
>>130913952I hate when this bald, broken clock happens to be right
Its the other way around
>>130914015I agree.
>>130913952>Ewwwww old guy is cringe, fellow kidsVery good take from the 40 yo zoomer.
>>130913952there must be a reason it's Fantano calling Rick Rubin cringe rather than the other way aroundi wonder what it is
>>130913952>shows up at the studio>sits on computer desk>open project>turns up +20dB>save as...That would be $10M please
>>130913957This thread is engagement bait advertising just like every fantano thread
>>130913952Liberals are so anti-technology its beginning to piss me off. I don't like streaming music, prediction gambling, data centers that much BUT also I don't think we should ban it and it all has uses that are great for their time. Most people need Spotify etc. just to hear music, most need data centers to stream content not only for AI and Prediction Markets are damn fun to some people, saying "I think Labour will win again" and being right is fun.We don't need to encounter every new thing and shit on it using the excuse that people are getting too rich from it or maybe it benefits some right wing media mogul. Liberals are taking us down a disturbing, potentially destructive road of eschewing all technology just to hurt the wealthy people. rant over
>>130915031>ai and data centersohh, i was wondering which of fantano's many derangement syndromes and pathological need to virtue signal led to the OP's video, now i know
>>130913952Fantano has stopped being a music critic long ago, he's become yet another argumentative breadtuber who uploads ten minutes of review every weekday to keep the lights on.
>takes artists with talent and turns them into radio rock with a brickwall limiterFagtano not liking him won't make me defend him because I'm not some underage retard who thinks contrarianism is a personality.
Well. He's better than Albini, so there's that.
The only genuine fans of Fantano are like brown teenagers who just discovered Swans and Death Grips
>>130915432wtf I thought they were the same person
>rick does nothing for a long time>has a right-wing billionaire on his podcast recently>Fantano feels the need to make a video bashing rick and how he's cringe all of a suddenlmao he's so insufferable
>>130915031they like streaming, their problem is how little artists are paid. They're mad they can't make a living wage uploading a song per month while getting a thousand plays. They want streaming to pay artists more but they're too dumb to realize that the money has to come from somewhere to pay them and they're not gonna pay 30 bucks a month for streaming.
If fantano is saying this maybe he is based
>>130915434bad news, anon: it's not 2013 anymore
>>130915740Good. If you're connected to Peter Thiel you should be publicly bashed.
>>130914015Cringe is anything that makes me cringe.
>>130914015Cringe post ngl
>>130915848Okay Jane Remover and Underscores then
>>130913952>le quirky music man
>>130913952hate to agree with fagtano, but yes
>>130913952Not only is he a cringe pseudo intellectual jew he is also a fraud, hate to agree with fagtano but Rick Rubin's hate is always justified
>>130913952>turns down the reverb on Reign in Blood>keeps the dynamic range highThis alone is enough to qualify him as a great producer.
Yes.He is a conman who pretends he's some mystical guru where merely being in his presence makes your music better via esoteric means.He's what the song 'Cosmic Debris' is about.
>>130913952Yeah but making youtube videos like this is ever gayer these days
Fantano is cringe
Pat Finnerty was hating on Rick Rubin years ago
>>130915031>Prediction Markets are damn fun to some peopleare you underage?
Yes Rick Rubin thinks AI is cool. He's also an out of touch late-boomer and just sees it as yet another cool new technology like most of them. The older perspective on AI is different because they grew up with lots of emerging technologies they saw as general net positives. Because they're on their way out of the workforce they're not really as attuned to the economic consequences, because they're on their way out of life they're not worried about its effects on the environment, and because they are old and largely incurious they're not worried about its impact on culture. He is also rich so whatever consequences it does have, he is insulated from anyway. Rick Rubin is no different than most of his generation and social class in this.Anthony Fantano singles out Rick Rubin for this not because Rubin is especially dumber than his generational cohorts on AI, but because Fantano has become an arrogant argumentative faggot addicted to picking fights. At the end of the day, whatever shortcomings he has, Rubin helped give the world Reign in Blood. Fantano's contribution to the culture is flannel color speculation.
>>130914180got dayum
people who like rick rubin are people who think they know more about music than most but not enough to realize he doesn't serve any practical function that improves music in any way.
must suck to be fantano knowing rick has actually contributed something to the music world while all he'll be known for is making bad reviews in his house and feeling regret over interviewing sam hyde.
Why does this board obsess so much about what fantano says, every day there is a new thread
>>130918654AI is easily a trillion times cooler than you or anything you'll ever make. Real artists (i.e. not you) are already using it to great effect.
>>130913952Rick Rubin seems like a pseud nowadays, but Fantano has never been in the room while great records were being made so I think he should pipe down.
>>130914240this. most fantano threads are made by fagboy himself. i remember multiple threads where i replied "my first year bass students (age 9-13) could play circles around fantano" and he replied like 20 times demanding i upload videos of other peoples kids playing bass to "prove it" fucking creep status. doesn't he have some alimony to pay to a nigger?
>>130915432this board is even worse than fantano
>>130913952This video is just Fantano doing light political commentary through a musical lens. He should just quit music reviews and join the full grift of being a political influencer, it's what he spend most of his time thinking about. Also, like in his Halsey video he tries to float an idea out there (calling Halsey a pdf and now calling Rubin alt-right) then just walks it back after all but saying the words directly. This dude is a wiener.
>>130913957>6 minutes agohe's got the bell on
>>130914038You should read his book The Creative ActIt’s magical
>hey rick, i'm not sure what to do after this part. let me play it for you>well, what does that part tell you?>well, i thought it needs a guitar solo but i'm not sure>if it feels like it needs a solo, play a solo>so i do what i already thought i had to do?>yeah. that'll be $800
>>130913952That's Karl Marx
>>130913952all kikes are cringe, no exceptionAKAC
I was 2 minutes into the video and then started wondering what I was doing with my life, can I just get a tldr
>>130915031>>130915058Good morning saar
>>130913952buddha rick rubin algorithm
>>130914015real
>it's another "people pretending to know the entire life story and full scope of someone's business off a vibe" episode
>>130923152okay Rick
>>130914015fantano is the definition of cringe
>>130913952Not as cringe as Fagtano
>>130915113>>130920773This, Anthony knows the clips of him saying the nigger word (among other un-PC things) are making the rounds again so he's trying to take the heat off by starting a political beef with Rick. Fantano and his fanbase need to admit they don't care about music anymore it's all about clout and political posturing now
>>130914200>smug 83let's see smug 59
>>130915031who are you talking about? no one said anything about banning technology you dumb fucking rightoid. goddamn all it took was 4 words for you to have a meltdown about shit completely unrelated to said 4 words
>>130923961okay but you can ask for one more smug and one smug only because i can't post all of them
>>130913952Who fucking cares, he is a great producer. He keeps artists focused, creative, and keeps them on the fucking grind and doesn't stop until they are 100 percent happy with the song. That's how you make good music period.
>>130920667Imagine giving a fuck about a singular instrument being a great bass player means fucking nothing. What's your greatest achievement fucking slapping bass in a death grips song rofl. That's peak. Learn to produce fuck nigga
>>130924495fantano can neither produce nor play so what's your point?
>>130913952Probably, but I wouldn't take it from that source. Fantano is a loudmouth agitator who's somehow convinced a gaggle of retards that his personal opinions on music have more weight than those of others. He also can't keep his politics separated from his enjoyment of music, which is not only unprofessional but childish in general.
>>130924660My point is he is a bitch with good exposure to music but terrible
He’s pure evil.
>>130913952ps2 rock band guitar hero algorithm
>>130924495shit, calm down anthony. you still mad that i didn't send you videos of my underage bass students for you to jack off to? fucking weirdo.
the transcendental meditation thing is kind of a whack vibe and turns you into a pseud but apart from that he's like a standard template 60 year old guy. who gives a shit genuinely
