I recommend that everyone gives this guy a listen to.

I've been getting into dubstep lately, and it's pretty sweet. Mt. Eden dubstep sucks now that I've listened to some real dubstep.

That seems about right.

Anyways, i'm not back properly. This is more of a goodbye/i'll be visiting on occasion.

Also, Electric Six up in this bitch.

Oh, and why is that?

I couldn't find a decent quality video for this, but please click on the link if you haven't heard of the Dirty Projectors before. Some of the craziest nerd rock ever.

and this:

If I told you, I'd have to kill you.

Real dubstep? Rusko? LOL

When I said "Now that I've listened to some real dubstep." I meant that I've listened to some dubstep artists rather than just Mt. Eden or whatever.

Also, I think Rusko is pretty good. Tell me some dubstep artists and I'll look 'em up, Leto.

So far I know at least Kode9, Burial, Rusko, The Widdler and few more.

You're getting married?

I'm sorry for sounding like an asshole, but for God's sake, why do so many of you have such shitty taste in music? The only people who I can agree on musical terms with here are Leto, OANST, Mr. Bungle, and Oddjob Abe. For real.

You can't define what's good music or not, everyone has their own opinions of good music.

You just have to live with it.

This post made me feel good. :)

I disagree. I have enjoyed quite a lot of pieces that I know are really bad pieces. I think that there's a line between silly enjoyable pieces and enjoyable pieces that are genuinely well-composed. I used to (and forgive me for this) enjoy some of Rolf Harris' pieces quite a lot, but I also loved Stravinsky and Schoenberg, and I would certainly not rank Harris in the same league as Stravinsky, even though I enjoyed some of his music to the same extent (but for entirely different reasons).

I agree with OddjobAbe on this one. I used to think the same way that you do, but not anymore.

Yadda yadda there cannot be any good or bad music it's all opinion, 90% of you just happen to listen to the shittiest entry level superficial crap that I have bitched and moaned about for far too long.

I have never met a musical elitist who was not a major prick.

Hating some bands doesn't mean you're not a nice person. ?

You've never met me WoF :D

I'm quite nice IRL, but for some reason I'm a huge diddle on the interwebs, particularly on OWF.

Fags.



the usual 'cut your dick off' sad steez i like. birdy numnums.

Okay, cut out the first part of my post, but I still stand by this sentence:

You can't go around telling everyone, that the music they listen to is crap, just because you don't like the artist or whatsoever. That's just being closeminded.

Like I said earlier, there is a definite difference between well-composed and badly-composed pieces. You don't have to dislike a piece to think it's a badly-composed piece. I hear a lot of people telling me about films they enjoyed, but knew they were actually shit films. If you ask me, it's the same thing with music (or any art form for that matter). It's because of this I believe that a person has every right to give their opinion on a piece of music, especially in a a discussion that pertains to the subject of music recommendation.

No. We can, however, listen to the music then tell you it's crap.

EDIT: Speedy shit, Oddjob.

In my experience it's pretty well correlated with being a shallow pretentious douche.

Well there are a lot of the so called hipsters. But I don't much like them; whether it be the scene kids, indie kids, metal kids, whatever. I try not to fit myself into any demographic like that, and am a really nice guy in real life. (Like Leto said) I try to get a long with people with different musical tastes even though I might not particularly like it, but some shit posted on here is just awful to me. Hipster used to be a title for a respectable person who was involved and knowledgeable in film, music, art and media. Now the word hipster is used more to define a poser, who pretends to like something so they can fit in the in crowd. I'm not shallow if that's what you're implying, and I really have a lot of confidence issues to be honest.

EDIT: and @ Phylum: what's the bass flute like? Does it play similar to a regular flute? I watched a video and it sounds really nice.

We could say the same about your very vocal dislike of Satanism. And music is much more important to our cultural identities than Satanism is.

I have met musical elitists who aren't shallow pretentious douches (Example: you), I have never met a satanist who isn't a shallow pretentious douche.

Like Ziggy said, being a musical elitist just seems to be some sort of stupid trend for most people. They'll grow out of it after college when obligations tie them down and they can't smoke pot regularly.

I only take umbrage with being called shallow. The rest of it I can live with.

You're definitely a major prick.
