why do people hate video game music?

Because only Tyrone music is real music

Video game music is better than non-video game music.
The thing about the music industry, is it's just as much about crafting images, as it is about actual music.
Video game music is just music. It's produced by craftsmen, and it's supposed to sound good. There's no idolatry or dream of stardom associated with it though, which is what makes it "uncool", if you're someone who is fully plugged into the product that is the music industry.

Most of the time it's just that subtle anti-Japan racism a lot of smug liberals have but that they dress up as something else. Because every time I see someone shit on "video game music" it's almost always from a JRPG or an action game from Japan. The rest of the time it's just retards who consume media to look more intelligent than they actually are. Video games don't have that tangential effect of making you look more worldly or intelligent so they shit on it just because there's nothing to be gained by praising it and clout to be gained by laughing at it. I assure you if you had them blind listen to a track and lied to them about where the track came from they would give you a different response.

Do you like Nobuo Uematsu? I've been a big Uematsu fan ever since the release of his 2006 video game, Blue Dragon. Before that, I really didn't understand any of his work. Too progressive-rock, too intellectual. It was on Blue Dragon where Uematsu's presence became more apparent. I think Mysterious Village was the game's undisputed masterpiece. It's an epic meditation on intangibility. At the same time, it deepens and enriches the meaning of the preceding three tracks. Listen to the brilliant ensemble playing of Horns, Percussion and Keys. You can practically hear every nuance of every instrument. In terms of lyrical craftsmanship, the sheer songwriting, this album hits a new peak of professionalism. Take the lyrics to Happy Birthday. In this song, Uematsu addresses the problems of abusive political authority. Watashi no Mizu to Sora is the most moving video game track of the 2000s, about monogamy and commitment. The song is extremely uplifting. Their lyrics are as positive and affirmative as anything I've heard in fantasy video game soundtracks. Uematsu's prior career seems to be more commercial and therefore more satisfying, in a narrower way. Especially songs like Dancing Mad and One Winged Angel. But I also think Uematsu works best outside the confines of Squaresoft, than composing for Final Fantasy, and I stress the word Squaresoft. This is Eternity, a great, great song, a personal favorite.

Because people hate "being out of the loop" with music. So it's easier to just dismiss it rather than listen to it. Like music has to be the absolute most smug and elitest thing out there. More than games or movies

>>681523678
It depends on the genre and type of music. For example most rhythm game tracks are fun mainly while playing the game because they are made for short bursts and go with the gameplay.
On the other hand some tracks are made as regular songs with longer sections and build ups.

If you rate an OST but have only listened while NOT playing the game, you didn't experience the original intent of the piece and are therefore discredited.

You buy an album to listen to the music.
You do not buy a game to listen to the music.
These are fundamentally different and you are a retard if you can't see it.

>>681531160
Wouldn't that make the video game music less of a cynical product? It's not composed solely to sell copies, because it's mostly screeshots of the game that will be doing that.
>>
>>681531160
>You do not buy a game to listen to the music.
Says who? If the game has good music, I'm more likely to buy it, and continue listening to the soundtrack after I beat it.
>>
>>681523678
Because video games rely on them, so it feels like paying $60 for an album. Subconsciously, this is what I imagine.
Lookin' at you, Squaresoft. Remove the music from any title, even FFVII, and who the fuck's playing/watching it? Jerking off to Tifa while listening to Whitney Houston, sure, but the game itself? Eat my ass.

You are avoiding the point. Not taking care to find any music you might like other than what you heard while doing something else despite the unfathomable amount of bredth to the medium is soulless. While this doesn't exclude OSTs from being good, it's the same for movies. If someone only listens to John Williams because it's what he heard in star wars and doesn't once try to expand their tastes I'm going to think he's soulless too.

This is a retarded opinion.
OSTs are literally designed to fit with whatever is happening on the game/movie/show and sinergize/amplify whatever emotion the game is trying to evoke. Rating them as an """""album""""" is something only pretentious fart sniffers do to try and justify how l-l-l-le video game music is LE REAL MUSIC! when you should just listen to whatever the fuck you want.

He never wanted credit for it, but Michael Jackson produced music for a Sonic game. Eat a dick, music elitists. Video game music is produced by real musicians, therefore video game music is real music. Anyone who claims otherwise is ignorant and talking out their ass. To truly appreciate music, you have to appreciate video game music. No, your nigger babble is not good music and I will never acknowledge it as good. Hoyoverse is taking steps forward with this because they already use real musicians to produce their special boss soundtracks and if it's good they release the music like you would release an album. The best part is it's free by default on their youtube channel. They produce music because it's sounds good. Not because they are directly selling it for money. It's to enhance the experience of the game so people that will be brought into it with the predatory gacha system anyway get a fanstastic soundtrack on top of it.

Looking at /mu/ for any sign of actual expert opinion, even something of a hobbyist opinion when all they do is rage-bait post and actively do nothing but post the same 2010 memes over and over again is a fool's game.

They're by far one of the worst boards on this site. They'd be /mlp/-tier speed as a board if it weren't for the KPOP barely SFW waifufagging threads that have been left to run rampant because the board has no moderation.
There are whole music-focused groups from /a/ and /v/ and other areas that hate /mu/. When people say "/v/ discusses every other board topic better than it does the actual board topic" it's usually overstated and not true, but it IS true for /mu/. Any board could discuss music better.

A ton of music in the vidya industry is literal high art.
Shame that most people are herd animals, so they flock to herd animal music obviously, stigmatizing anything outside that (such as vidya osts), no matter if said herd slop is simply bad. That is their level of quality and that is what they can associate and resonate with. This is definitive answer to OP's question.
We don't have to care about the opinions of such lesser beings, let them bathe in their mud and filth like the pigs they are.
That said, there is objectively garbage video game music too. Those pieces can be rightfully shunned, such as chiptunes and tinkly winkly moe idol shit.

Don't get me wrong, /v/'s bad but you can get discussion about a niche series from time to time (even if half the thread devolves into waifuspamming or something). It's about the same as /a/ but instead of rage-bait derail or straight-borderline NSFW it's more saturation of discussion with increasingly distantly related topics. /mu/ feels like you'll only ever get a basic sentence response of indifference or death. You REALLY have to pander to the braindead memespamming-base to get a thread beyond 20 posts.
Even recommendation threads or shit like "best of [insert year] so far" threads barely even archive. The secret being that most people on /mu/ do not actively listen to much music and are only there for the "greatest hits" of /mu/ memes and usual talking points.
On /v/ I could actually talk about a new game release, maybe even ones which are relatively obscure. Someone might even ask me about it if they've never played it, or I could make a general thread about a genre.
On /mu/, I really can't do it. And it's not even like I'm talking about obscure shit because music is massively saturated. You can barely EVER talk about electronic music on /mu/. If it isn't DP then no one is going to come to the thread or act relatively interested. It's like the board's posters are just programmed to like what /mu/ likes already.
You could spend 1 month just listening to music via everynoise or rym or anything and just seeing what's out there and you'd have a deeper understanding than 90% of /mu/.

At least /v/ fucking PLAYS video games that come out that year. /v/ actually has events and shit that vote on it. They make the effort to try and coordinate some kind of community effort or they share and discuss for multiple threads.
No one does that. On a fucking music board, that has more history and accessibly than fucking video games.

Modern lyrics are garbage, they have no meaning and tell no stories like older music, as boomer as that sounds. It's just non-sense meant to rhyme and every song feels like some retard incoherent rambling to me
I don't mind some of the rhythms of modern rap or pop, so ill usually just look up the instrumentals if it's got a good beat to it
As I type this though I'm listening to this

Long story short- Instrumentals and vidya music good. Shit lyrics bad

In a similar case, Roundabout is 10 BILLION TIMES more well known as the jojo's bizarre adventure ending than the Yes prog rock song from 1971, therefore does being mostly associated with another form of art makes Roundabout any less valuable as standalone music ? What about Stanley Kubrick using mainly classical musical throughout his entire filmography, can the Trio op100 from Schubert be considered real music if it has become simply the Barry Lyndon theme. If tomorrow I make a rythm game only using Pink Floyd's the wall or Kanye's college dropout, can these albums be considered "real music". Simple to say, /mu/fags are absolutely fucking retarded, music is music doesn't matter the fuck it comes from so soundtrack is music, the same way abstract is still art as it involves a process of craftsmanship.

The biggest problem with vidya music is that it can never compete with the greats especially when it's classical. You cannot ever convince me that a looping game track can compare with something like https://youtu.be/YzJrg66FwO0?feature=shared&t=291 or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W63NK_ZrJnk or one of the countless amounts of timeless classical literature. Like it's just not close. I don't dislike video game music either and will listen to it on its own from time to time but come on now.

Mainstream music is all the same recycled shit beat for normie fags to dance, twerk, and whoop to.

Video game music at least sometimes tries to do new things. For example this music is from a techno scifi series but uses a non-existent language created specifically for this series and a didgeridoo.

This. More artists need to understand that idea. So much awful music gets a pass because the lyrics talk about "muh feelings" and it tricks people into thinking it's good. Vidya music avoids that completely and you can truly measure its worth.

If you only listen to american pop music you also have absolute dogshit taste, several hundred times more than someone that would listen to Nier or Zelda's OST on a daily basis.
The only genre of music which isn't deserving of getting clowned on if you only listen to it is classical music, has it objectively the peak of music has an art form. Don't try to run away like the bitch you are rockfags, because only listening to alt rock or emo is also dogshit taste and everyone will find you as weird as metalheads or kpop fags.

Part of my job involves me getting into people's cars and I've noticed that normies literally don't have any taste in music. I don't mean "haha what they listen to is bad", it is, but that's beside the point. I mean they literally treat music as background noise and don't enjoy music for what it is. They just put whatever is popular on the radio on and leave it at that. Very few people seemingly have music on because they genuinely like it.

Nier's OST is great in-game but it's so heavy on emi evans' voice for like every track and just blurs together with a few exceptions. Doesn't help that since you play the game like 4 times doing monotonous tasks that the music just becomes white noise too.

If there is one thing I hate more than anything is complete failures who never created anything worth of value in their entire miserable life who dare to pose themselves as some sorts of intellectuals and devaluate some forms of art by the basis of arbituary opinions and tastes trying to define what is "high art" and what is "low art".
Spoiler you complete piece of shit, every fucking alternative rock albums from the 70s you adore like the faggot you are were considered complete dogshit unhearable noises during their time, the best jazz songs ever from the likes of Miles David were quite literally NIGGER music at some point and no better than a dog barking. Every single form of art at some point was denied and criticized by so-called "specialists and elitists" during their birth, the video game music you think is dogshit right now will be considered for some tracks to be the greatest music to ever be created in a couple dozen of years.

Because the vast majority of it is the equivalent of a commercial jingle, meant to be short, catchy, and highly repeatable. Actually good video game music is usually licensed out to actual musical acts that create tracks for the game, or the rare composer who is capable of making quality, memorable, music.

Even the "classic" soundtracks from the retro era for games like Mario and Sonic ripped their music off of people like Michael Jackson. Koji Kondo is also a notorious plagiarizer.

>Have you tried?
Modern orchestral is complete asshole and is just as sloppy as other genres like pop that the entire thread has been shitting on. Most VG music is better by the sole fact it is often composed with intention, most of modern orchestral is aping already over-utilized works, in combination with the freedom most VG composers are given on influence and genre that is never expressed in modern orchestral. You might as well go and listen to your average Hollywood film score, because that is essentially what modern orchestral is. If you like orchestral in (((current year))), your objectively best outlet is VG music for the sole fact that the rest of the equivalent genre has been overtaken by passionless hacks like Really Slow Motion.

I do listen to other genres of music fucking retard.
My favorite genre of music is japanese noise rock from the early 2000s like Sheena Ringo or Tricot, I also love 90s french rap because of insane lyricist like MC Solaar and listens to a lot of bebop and swing.
YOU on the other hand fucking faggot, ONLY LISTEN to what you consider GOOD MUSIC to your faggot elistist ears. The fact video game music could be considered GOOD doesn't even grasp your reptilian brain and you probably haven't even clicked any link posted in this thread, something which I did for every link (thanks the guy who posted that Wild arms op) because UNLIKE YOU I explore other genres and artists and do not have any preleminary opinions on music because of where it comes from.

If your main argument for opposing music to video game music is saying people who listens to video game do not look further to expand their taste you have be proven wrong twice already in this thread and it is the most baffling statement ever thought because you base it on absolute nothing whatsoever. Now give us a real argument that "real good music" has over both pop music and/or video game music which isn't "just go look for it and if you cant its your fault".

>>681534452
I'm not a music guy, but I've always found that the best vidya scores always evoke more sense of wonder and adventure than actually playing the game. The best boss battle tracks are more exciting than actually fighting the boss. The best anime OPs are better than any scene in that anime.
Therefore I can only conclude that music is actually the truest art form. It's the only medium where even if you have 0 context, a good work of music can still elicit an emotional response. Literature, movies, and games require you to have additional context like reading the whole story to get to a moving scene. Music doesn't even need words to make you feel.

Good point but video game music is made to accompany gameplay or story while regular music is made to be listened to and also not all music is made by super famous artists worshipped by millions so your argument doesn't hold water beyond the normies of pop songs
>>
>>681550747
Not him but there's a large contingency of /mu/ fags that are open to anime music actually, because anime soundtracks and video game soundtracks aren't composed with the same purpose. There's generally more artistic value to be found in a movie or television score than in a video game score, and that translates to both live-action stuff and anime as well.

Fucking anime soundtrack from 1982 runs circles around the entire video game industry.

Asking what kind of music you like is some weird kind of 'catch' or normie judge of character. I have an older brother who's addicted to drugs and has ruined his body and got married way too early (and with potentially the wrong woman), but he always tries to catch me with this question.

I am not sure why they put so much weight on it as an assessment of character or overall taste. At worst it's somewhat immature, or short-reaching in terms of taste I guess.

I love video game music, it's the best background music while doing work that involves thinking. No lyrics means it's not distracting the words part of my brain, and on top of that, unlike a lot of other lyricless music, vidya music is designed to keep you alert, active, and focused.
I know it's especially good music when it's music from a game I've never played but I still want to regularly relisten to it anyway.

>The original name for "progressive rock" was "progressive pop"
Progressive rock and progressive pop are two distinct genres, the latter growing from the former you fucking idiot. Progressive rock emerged from progressive pop with the intention of splitting off from rock's former pop influences since rock was considered lowbrow pop music in the 1960s by jazz and classical snobs and people wanted to prove that rock could be held to a higher standard.

Where the fuck do you people even come from?

This is progressive pop.

Prog-rock evolved literally directly from prog-pop, you dumbass. They were synonymous.

I realized the typo in my post (I mixed prog rock and prog pop when saying former and latter) and I know I'll get shat on for mocking your English when I fucked up myself
But my point still stands that progressive rock GREW from progressive pop. They're not the same genre. They're not remotely same the genre, in the same way that heavy metal is not heavy psych even though heavy metal grew out of heavy psych.

The entire point of progressive rock was taking inspiration from progressive pop but removing the pop structures altogether because musicians wanted to prove that rock music had potential as a "serious" genre, since up to that point rock music hardly had any mainstream "art music" compared to jazz music, electronic music and classical music and the like.

People shit on people who only listen to Vidya OSTs because people who proudly proclaim this are all the fat neckbeard in the cargo shorts and Zelda shirt. Seriously you have people unironically saying non-vidya music is shit because the music that is played on the radio or their friends and family listen to are bad and they act like this is somehow a genius take or a serious critique of a medium. All good video game music is made by people inspired and ripping off actual musical artists so it pisses people off when people only listen to vidya music because it just shows ignorance willful or not. All the JRPG soundtracks you love are just ripping off prog rock and jazz fusion. Doom was ripping off speed and thrash metal. You can like these but it's the equivalent of liking a song because it was used in a pepsi commercial.

It's very hard to articulate but to me most video game music sounds so caged in and uninspired.

Theres just too many other forms of art that need to come together to make a game. Music needs to be the focus or it just doesn't hit right.

I'm not a Black Sabbath fan, but I will wholly admit that Paranoid is one of the top 10 albums of the 70's, and pretending it's shit by posting reactionary images is just obtuse and childish.

retarded statement honestly
if you listen to an album with the lyrics then you're not rating it on the music as an album so it doesn't count
same kind of statement.
music is not entirely about the sound all the time, the scene, characters, setting or lyrics it's attached to do play a reasonable role in its quality
these secondary things will heighten the music or in cases make you actually listen to something you would have otherwise disregarded
personal example i can think of is the hounds from protomen act 2, a song i think is decent but which without the context of the overall story they're telling i would not have given a fuck about because that particular music that song goes for is not my jam
secondly you cannot un-associate things
it doesn't matter if you play a game then listen to the ost on cd by itself, your brain is still associating the songs with whatever was happening at the time you first heard them, it's unavoidable
and that applies to all music ever. i can create an exact image in my head of when i first heard blue by eiffel whoever the fuck all those years ago, the songs enjoyment is very much affected by the scenario it was heard in video game or otherwise
