...yeah, I guess you could say I am something of an intellectual.
All, unlistenable crap. You're a try-hard pseudo intellectual. You don't earn anything if you force yourself to listen to that shit.

Yet when talking to actual people you get maybe 2 or 3 of these out, realize everyone's looking at you like you're a fucking retard, you start stammering and losing your place, after a couple more brutally mispronounced names that you already forgot after reading about them on Wikipedia that one time for that slick Sup Forums thread you made you sit back, mutter "y-yeah guess I just have weird taste in music haha" under your breath, and everyone goes back to listening to whatevers on the radio at the time, finally understanding why you never say much.
Colton Green
Brutal. Imagine the pain of the hipsters when they can't really brag about their favorite artists because everyone is like "who the fuck are these artists?". It's all so vain. What is more pathetic than a hipster trying to elevate himself above the masses through the work of his favorite artists? It's like bragging with someone else's work.

this is the problem with treating artists like pokemon cards
90% of those are legitimately strange and experimental and just because they're slightly popular in a fleeting moment on an imageboard doesn't change that
Cooper Nguyen
>this is the problem with treating artists like pokemon cards
i seriously hope you haven't criticized this sort of mentality while also posting in /daily/ or using RYM or last.fm or participating in chart threads
Levi Long
all of them are good
Alexander Martin
/daily/ sucks but rym and last.fm are fine for keeping track of what you listen to. chart threads are terrible but there's occasionally a nice person who isn't just out to impress people with their music tastes.
Michael Wood
nah you're full of shit kys
Kayden Garcia
nobody actually does this lmao
Lucas Lopez
t. someone who does it
Kayden Barnes
>i have everybody figured out, down to their motives for doing things. i need this sense of control, badly.
kill *your*self, little kid.
Dylan Lopez
i used to use last.fm because i enjoy talking to people that are interested in the same kind of music as me, and occasionally it would provide decent recommendations before i learned how to look for things myself. the only reason why i don't use it anymore is because they ruined the site
i also enjoy reading rym because i am curious in other people's opinions in music, but it doesn't really affect what i listen to in any way
and i'd just like to let you know that none of those things are inherently bad, and just because you can use them to make yourself more eclectic doesn't mean that you have to like everything, know about everything, or feel any kind of superiority for being aware of it. the notion is retarded, and based on your subsequent posts so are you

if anyone on this board actually listened to Loren Mazzacane Connors, Gong, Lou Harrison, or Ornette Coleman seriously on this board, maybe it wouldn't be such a shithole
Brandon Rodriguez
These people, despite their fascination with far right aesthetics, are still very liberal, and pretending to be suicidal also gets them some "depressive aesthetic" points for their blog.

the guy who made that pasta is a reactionary child
William Mitchell
do tell me how people who are the same age as you +3 and who treat quality in music purely on aesthetic levels are knowledgeable please
Adam Anderson
follow the conversation, save your half-baked observations for later.
no, user, that's not what a straw man argument is. back to the drawing board.
Christopher Scott
they aren't necessarily the same age as me. i've read extended reviews that were written in the past decade on that site, and even if they were the same age as me at the time of writing them they are certainly older than me now. some were retrospectives on albums that were released when they were of age in the 80s and 90s, which i wasn't.
also, this might be hard for an autistic person to understand, but people have lived different lives from you. so someone can easily be knowledgeable on hip hop at a young age and be deficient in jazz or shoegaze or whatever. and i don't see anything wrong rym focusing mostly on the aesthetic qualities of music. if i want to focus on the production or composition qualities of the music i can learn that in my own time because i like doing that anyway
if you don't get an argument that's not a strawman i can just stop posting, you're really boring
Cameron Miller
how do people like you even manage to breathe
Kayden Hill
name me 1 avant-teen that is remotely knowledgeable because protip people who don't share their knowledge or who share their knowledge in obfuscated ways are as good as people without any knowledge
Austin Lee
>are as good
Why are you the arbiter of this exactly? Who are you?
Jace Jenkins
hmmm
Tyler Ortiz
>purely on aesthetic levels Excuse if I'm just no entirely grasping what you're saying but isn't an aesthetic appreciation the basis for any kind of enjoyment of art
Nobody except lv.99 music nerds is like "ah yes this enharmonic seventh chord modulation to the subtonic key coupled with the earlier tritone substitutions has me left me with my loins feeling moist"
Jack Sanders
People who admit their lack of knowledge are better than avant-teens who obfuscate their knowledge because the latter are open enough to allow for some sort of discussion which can enrich one's knowledge or general worldview. Avant-teens on the other hand are walking North Koreas in that you hear rumors about them but once you enter their personal realm you realize they're not really worth it.
Xavier Myers
No, you just want them to be very liberal because you are a rightist who hates it when other rightists do things you think are stupid.

Nigga, that "music" sounds like shit, nobody with a decent taste likes it. Just some pretentious crap to impress naive idiots like you. You fell for the patrician / pleb meme invented by CLT. You're stupid.
Joseph Morgan
Using rym and lastfm (before the update) for music listening and discovery alone is probably a bit helpful if you're not treating them like actual pokemon cards here hoping someone would respect you when you pull the old pot of greed and expecting some black lotus recc.
Gabriel Jackson
Yea i like le queen too

All memes and shitposting aside, can anyone recommend great (known and obscure) experimental artists?
