>muh per capita
>"""huge""" influence
stay irrelevant small zealand
nice refutal you have me convinced
fresh meme my man
>any of those artists
>influential
The dunedin sound had a vague passing influence on one or two jangle pop artists. If that's a "huge influence" on "popular music" then fuck me the bee gees are the most influential artist of all time.
Show me a better track in these genres: (or in salmonella dubs case, a better album)

Without New Zealand's world class indie rock scene in the 80's, we wouldn't have bands like Pavement, DIIV, Wild Nothing, Beach Fossils..
Reminder that the ONLY think that Poo Peeland has contributed to global music is Slice of Heaven.
Reminder that Poo Peelanders will unironically use a small off-hand mention of their """revolutionary scene""" on REM's wikipedia page as being a "huge influence".
Reminder that outside of this one mention, not a single artist from another country has taken influence from a Poo Peeland artist.
+ REM
influence =/= devoid of talent.
Might need to reword OP next time
"How does one country with a very small population manage to produce such a large amount of high quality music in so many varied genres?"
This.
Very small, very isolated. To think of the enormous amount of quality releases that came outta NZ in the 80's is pretty mind blowing really.
>very small population
>large amount
>high quality music
>varied genres
Let me fix that for you
>quite a large population, all very well educated
>fuck all
>derivative garbage
>dub, "reggae" and jangly indie rock. Oh, and some lame thrash metal.
>poo peeland
New Zealand did nothing wrong.
Now look at the contemporary classical composers from NZ. Very talented bunch.
Find me a better saxophone concerto

Nice one man. Sure going to take your opinions seriously.

For those who like jangle pop/psych/shoegaze/noise pop/outsider folk, 80's NZ is fucking GOAT
I can't believe it! A thread about nz music and nobody is mentioning fat freddy's drop
>LE FUGGGG LE ESSS PEEE XDXDXDDXDXX FUGG LE ZPORRTTSSSZZZZ
kys
That's because they're shit.
Reminder this is an 18+ board, adding LE FUGG XD XD to what somebody else said is not contributing to the discussion in any way
Yes this is an 18+ board, and I would like to remind you that irrationally hating sports is characteristic of edgy 15 year olds, and irrationally hating fun is characteristic of bullied edgy 15 year olds. Maybe it is YOU who is underage?

SPRAY AND WALK AWAY
This
Literally nothing from nz is actually globally relevant so the closest thing to it gets overrated by an impossibly large amount as a form of damage control over the fact that our most influential musician is some literally who bedroom band from the 80s
Smith's City!
Has it all!
name a better indie/diy scene from the 80's that isn't in the UK or US
Sup Forums post yfw you will never fuck Suzy Cato

Question to non New Zealanders:
Does it feel good to live in a culturally important country, or do you just take it for granted?
Goat
goddamn don't listen to those guys. NZ is a culturally important country. There was a lot of substance to your music scene which is a lot more than can be said for most countries.
Anyone here heard/like Soda Boyz? pretty cool Palmy band I'm going to see on Saturday

>tfw becuase of this thread you listen to Scribe: Dreaming for the first time in 9 years
holy fuck it makes me sad man. I remember a time during 2003-2006 you couldn't go anywhere in NZ without hearing Scribe. This song was special because it was about him struggling for years with drugs and other shit and finally making it. Cue to 2016 and he doesn't even make music anymore and apparently he was back addicted to meth. Apparently he sold all his NZ Music Awards to pay for it. That shit fucks me up man i thought he had made it out. RIP Scribe
