It's downtempo, numbnuts. I never said it was both.

>>131397615
>wikipedia said it’s downtempo and they are really accurate about genre classification so i will circle it in reddi- i mean red and post it as a powerful retort hurr mmph got em
>>
>>131397632
Yeah, no genre classification will ever be correct enough for you. I know your stupid game, clown.
>>
>>131397648
strawman. wikipedia is wildly inaccurate and you’d know that if you knew shit
>>
>>131397663
It's not like Wikipedia is the only place calling it downtempo, but no matter what source I give you, it won't be good enough for you, because you get your rocks off on gatekeeping for gatekeeping's sake, not on having an earnest discussion. You're not even a person. You're just a stupid troll archetype. Thousands of trolls have down this before and thousands will after. You're a nameless, faceless loser in a crowd of dipshits.

>>131397165
not music

>>131397691
or you could just admit you don’t really know what the genre is and it doesn’t matter, but you need to be right and you’re projecting all that on me when in reality i was just nitpicking

>Moon Safari was far and away the very best downtempo, chill-out album of the decade. There is no debate. No comparison. This is the truth. And we all thought that Air were our saviors. They would elevate the genre into unforeseen realms. They would bring beauty and timelessness back into pop music. They were the saviors. And they let us down. And then they really and truly let us down with 10,000 Hz Legend. Ever since Moon Safari, I, and I suspect many others, have been waiting for a downtempo album of equal significance.

>Air and Moby, both heritage, downtempo electronic acts, return to Billboard‘s Top Dance/Electronic Albums chart (dated July 2).

Can't wait for you to move the goalposts, because the definition of the genre that exists entirely within the petrid soup you call a brain is the conveniently the only one that counts.
>>
>>131397712
You're not music.
>>
>>131397743
homie, i don’t need to move goalposts. you are citing popmatters and billboard. can you not see the problem? you can find media that’ll call anybody anything. that doesn’t mean you’ve got an accurate picture.
>>
>>131397769
>"don't need to move goalposts"
>moves goalposts
Every on Earth could call it downtempo and you'd still say we're all wrong because it doesn't match your special snowflake internal cannon of the definition. Because you're not arguing in good faith. You are arguing to gatekeep.
>>
>>131397787
i didn’t love a goalpost. you are citing the most nonsensical outlets that know zero about music as you did with wikipedia. i was never arguing with you, this is not an argument. it’s you losing your shit because you have to rely on popular media to tell you what genre moon safari is because you don’t know anything about air or music
>>
>>131397808
And you're LARPing being a pretentious cunt. You can't actually be one, because you don't know jack shit. You just know to gatekeep and move goalposts. Again, no source will ever be good enough for you. You'll always say that it's too mainstream, too out of touch, just plain wrong, or whatever, just to get your rocks off on gatekeeping. Anyway, jerk yourself off. I'm not gonna keep doing it for you.
>>
>>131397852
nah dude, you cited wikipedia, popmatters and billboard. you didn’t cite an electronic outlet or air in their own words because you don’t know shit. you’re being the pretentious cunt by pretending you know anything at all about air. you might as well ask ai

how this album remains so dummy underrated 30 years later is still so mystifying to me… people cry “Christcore” but it’s still one of the coolest CDs I own, literal human spine as the jewel case spine…
