Ive been listening to some ragtime and steel guitar country due to spongebob music, where to go from here?https://youtu.be/f5UKdCALCcE?si=CKvdbBAGBr6TtRs_https://youtu.be/KW6_V3jKKVs?si=A_9qi5v75ahoFp2t
>>131492915For ragtime: James Scott and Arthur Marshall if you like upbeat and lyrical melodies; Joseph Lamb if you like somber introspection and harmonic depth. Scott Joplin is somewhere in the middle. Jelly Roll Morton, Zez Confrey, Roy Bargy and Billy Mayerl bridge the gap between ragtime and jazz, to very interesting and often idiosyncratic effect. Highly recommend all.You might also like the Texas folk rag tradition (which Euday Bowman, composer of 12th Street Rag from SpongeBob, comes from):>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6gAeTkajpAA>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=44juphDTnEE (This one is kind of a meme but still good)>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F5Frq3DXp8c

>>131496344I have a theory that I've never seen shared before, but I think Spongebob was originally meant to be a more musically-focused TV show.My evidence for this are that all the earliest episodes contain a unique song. The pilot had Living in the Sunlight, then there was Ripped Pants, Wish I was Back in Texas, The F.U.N. Song etcThen Season Two had the Loop de Loop Song, which was apparently produced by Ween which is fucking wild to me because this was way before the movie Eventually though, production realized having a unique musical number per episode a la Scooby Doo chase songs just wasn't feasible so they pivoted to a more conventional cartoon format Anyone know if there are any interviews with the production team where they talk about this?
