If you are happy you don't need music or any other hobby to fill the void.

>normies are such plebs
>over half the threads on the board are normie as fuck

they pursue other interests.

BUT SURPRISE 100 YEARS OF DEPRESSION AND LONELINESS IS YOUR REWARD
ITS A FACT YOU CAN'T BE HAPPY AND HAVE GOOD TASTE

idiot

T.normie

it takes a lot of time to be able to analyze music, think about music culture, make conclusions as to what you like etc. "normies" typically don't have enough of a musical interest and/or they don't have a career in music. So it's basically physically impossible for them to make the time to analyze/educate themselves about music

>Why is it that Normies universally have a terrible taste in music?

As opposed to the Swans, Death Grips-listening connoisseur?

>normies
>better people
normie detected

but seriously, people who aren't fuckin' nerds usually listen to whatever is popular or whatever their friends like. which is usually bad.

...

They're mindless sheep who have no particularly unique qualities.

Inorite

Why don't these people delete all their music and download the general essentials and watch TheNeedleDrop like real patricians?

Unlike Sup Forumstants

Music taste is subjective. Your shitty music may be other people's gold and viceversa. The so called good music: just music that elitists liked it.

/thread

We're mindless in an esoteric way tho :^)

>Music taste is subjective.
no it's not thats just the lazy way to say. I like listening to shit

Because music is just a cultural interest like any other, they probably have other interests that they enjoy more and you don't.

I enjoy music like everyone in this board, but music just requires certain sensibility to really enjoy it , not inteligence. Cant understand how can you guys be that pretentious about it

>Music taste is subjective.

>Higher '''''''''Education''''''''''

Good goyim, spend your entire 20's in debt in a pro-entrepreneurial landscape! Remember, it's the only way you'll get a good job, it's practically mandatory!

This is all that my laptop can hold. I have another 300+ gigs on two separate external drives. Post yours, by the way. You won't though.

Yes, it's subjective. Could you objectively prove that your favorite music is good?

Certain genres are correlated to intelligence and I would say intelligence is an attribute to strive for.

High IQ = Classical
Low IQ = Hip Hop

But that's because poor people listen to hip hop. The image is interesting though.

Thats the whole point of taste dumbass
POOR PEOPLE MAKE BAD DECISIONS = BAD TASTE

>poor people make bad decisions

are you implying they don't?

Complete bullshit. Stop believing any crap you read and shitty chart you see on moo. They're made by pseudo-intellectual morons.

Not all poor people are poor because of bad choices

normies don't exist because they aren't robots and everybody has inner quirks and ideals. it's really that simple.

Befriend normies who play instruments

Not the pickup a guitar and learn three songs normies

The vast majority are.

>dissolution of the Greek state
What the fuck does this even fucking mean, which fucking state? Greece wasn't one monolithic culture, just a bunch of angry city-states that occasionally joined up to beat up foreigners or each other (usually the latter).

The only thing that garbage proves is that there's always been some guy bellyaching about how music was better back in the day. It's just today we have 18 year olds wishing they were born when Led Zeppelin was still touring instead of Plato wishing that these damn lyre players would get some taste and recognize that the kithara is the best instrument.

You fell for the bait, my dude.

Don't trust anything with Ame's name near it.

Maybe, but it's the result of a vicious cycle.
The thing is that if your parents are poor, they have a harder time when it comes to teaching you on how to make good decisions.
You tend to perpetrate the things your parents do, because, yeah, they are the ones who educate you.
Same for music, my mom used to listen to Nirvana and techno when I was a kid. My favorite artists now are Autechre, MBV and Sonic Youth, and it's not surprising at all.
Warren Buffet's father was a congressman and a businessman. His dad obviously taught him how to do business at a young age and could fund his ventures.
John Carmack's kid already know how to program better than 99% of Sup Forums.
Social determinism is a thing, stop thinking like an embarrassed millionaire. The best way to help poor people making better decisions and stop turning to petty crime would be to reduce economical inequalities.

Did the author realise that Plato's ideas about most things are not true from today's scientific viewpoint?

So, I'll take it that you agree with me.

Ok, listen up you fucking pleb.

I've got 3 terabytes of 60’s pre-ambient 800 gigs of live recordings of this local band called the fuckerfucks. They played only 2 shows before breaking up but I had 11 redundant recording rigs all recording flac which I then layered over one another for 25,000 kbps bitrate.

8 terabytes of the beatles. No not THOSE beatles, the new beatles. They haven’t recorded an album yet and technically they’re not really a band yet but they’re indie-gospel-post-funk-punk style is going to be huge when you guys hear their stuff in about 5 years.

4 petabytes of the Ethiopian Free Jazz wave that occurred in 1973 in a town called Wenji Gefersi.

18 terabytes of sound check recordings from the mid 90’s band LFO. They only scored a hit with “I like girls (who wear abercrombie and fitch)” but they were way ahead of their time.

And that’s just my C: drive. I have 41 drives.

Neither do you.

I'm happy and have good taste.
Most of Sup Forums is pretty pleb.

Not really.

When it comes to music tastes, you could argue that rich people prefer classical music because it's something good for your cultural capital.

Bourdieu showed that financial capital was not the only thing that perpetuates social status among the successive generations of a family, but that what he called social capital (i.e. the friends of your family members) and cultural capital also played a big part in this.

That's the reason why it's better for your social status to be have read Balzac and know a few Rembrandt paintings, you can connect with fellow richfags with that knowledge.

And that's why there are plenty of young richfags who know to how to play piano and like Chopin and Beethoven, but also like shitty EDM and pop, because deep inside they are plebs, and it's a way for them to show to the world they are educated, but also that they can fun with their normie friends.

Does these people have better music tastes ? I don't think so.
I think people who are passionate, have explored plenty of music genres and some understanding of music theory are those with the best tastes.

There is a big part of subjectivity in everyone judgment when it comes to art, but I trust more the judgment of some poorfag who is well read on the history of rock music when it comes to recommending me some rock music, than a richfag opinion on classical who only like entry-level classical because it's something you need to like in order to justify your place in society.

>but I trust more the judgment of some poorfag who is well read on the history of rock music when it comes to recommending me some rock music
You just admitted taste isn't subjective

I think the subjective vs objective argument when it comes to art is pretty stupid tbqh.
Music tastes are subjective, but it's better to trust people who are more educated on the matter.
At the end, some trends will emerge that you could qualify as objective.
Because, for example, someone who is very knowledgeable in classical music could for example hate Beethoven for some reason. But it's just one opinion among the other opinions and critiques of musical works among people who are also knowledgeable.
So, I don't know, it's both. Some kind of tastes are seen as better than some others because they are the mark of distinction of someone who has a high place in society, some kind of tastes are seen as better because it's approved by knowledgeable critics. These kind of tastes don't necessarily overlap.

shit I meant to quote

>screamo in type 0
>grindcore in type 1

who made this shit?

what if normies just know that other normies dont really give a fuck what obscure bands they listen to so they just say the least shitty popular artist they can think of on the spot to avoid judgment

Because, just like every other medium (Video games, movies etc.), they don't focus on it as much as we do.
They take the bare minimum of it and emphasise life on the social aspect.
Every medium they partake in is an extension of socialisation, rather than fully enjoying the medium itself.

For example: A film enthusiast would happily enjoy film by him/herself and fully take in the details. A normie would prefer to go to a cinema with friends and talk about the movie with them afterwards.

Look at that dudes bicep

>pleb pop vs pleb metal

cringe

The one on the left unironically

Most of those "top tier" genres are absolute unlistenable crap "liked" only by posers. Nobody with a sane mind could enjoy that audio vomit.

You clearly have no musical education.

Not the person you replied to, but metaphysics isn't really open to be scrutinized by the scientific method. That being said, I firmly believe that belief in metaphysical forces is a requisite for the fulfillment and grounding of the human experience, but I subscribe more to an Hegel's dialectics than Plato's forms.

>projecting

If a chart existed for television and movies anime would be at the very bottom of the pyramid

...

tell that to the classical composers who have studied the top tier composing techniques for years

Jesus it's about to explode

how do I at least save my little brother from becoming an 100% normie pleb? he's 13 i see him listening to like the top 40 hits pandora station and i worry, even just a bit under basic Sup Forumscore would be fine

>Saving anyone from anything
