https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ofneAwuXHeQThis is so true, I hate how people listen to music on Spotify through one AirPod as just a source of dopamine when they’re bored. I’ve recently changed my habits to downloading all my music (as well as buying physical copies of my favorite albums) and also only listening when I'm at home and can fully give it my time and attention.What do you think? Are people listening to music wrong?
>>132096493Didn't watch the video but I would say that most media is engaged with in a shallow and ephemeral way post-streaming.
>heh, actually I consume media the correct way, unlike youand then everyone clapped
>>132096616This but without a hint of irony
>>132096493>listening to rhythmic music rhythmically is wrong
>>132096493>>132096672Ok in fairness he does specify that he's talking about extreme metal, and he's right. Extreme metal is largely riffless garbage, so not moving while listening to it is the right thing to do. For people that like real music none of this applies.
>>132096493There are specific albums I will only listen to when I can give it my full attention, and other albums I will use as semi-background music. Not all music is made equally, forcing yourself to always "listen correctly" is tryhard and performative

>>132096493this. I respect music too much to listen it through some shitty Bluetooth earbuds.
>>132096920Jdawg is way dumber and more cringe than buffmetal. Buffmetal is a bit immature, but leagues more open minded and interesting than jdawgs closeted homo "trve" diatribes
>>132097087jdawg is playing a character
It really depends on the album. But generally, yes. I think if you are listening to an album for the first time you should be giving it your undivided attention. Afterwards, do whatever you like.
>>132096493Listening with just one bud in is very harmful to your ears, complex stereo recordings are also harmful. If possible I try to keep the music away from me or use open back headphones and bounce everything down to mono when possible. Using Spotify, or any streaming application for that matter is foolish. Digital music is best downloaded, even at lower bit rates, whatever depths you prefer. Sounds like you've chosen a great route though, one that is more purposeful and fulfilling.
>>132096672>One of the most treble forward genres in existenceOh it is so rhythmic!!
>>132096741Yes, this is true too. Different music for different occasions. However with this post I am mainly talking about what people usually consider their favorite genre, or the one they default to because they love it more than other music
>>132097970Only applies to shitty black metal
>>132096493The thing is most people don't really care about music, it is either just background noise, part of an image, or something that happens in place where people go to get drunk or pick up.Don't get angry about it, instead ask why you are obsessed with it, are you acting like an autismo and pissing people off around you by talking about it all the time,Is there better ways you could be spending your time, are you taking it all too seriously.
