DUDE WEED and Bieber have not given it a great rec but anyone else here like music from Central America, Caribbean and South America?

Local styles, not just pop/rock.

King Selewa & His Calypsions - Back To Mi Home

It was the sound of my summer.

Eduardo Mateo - Mateo solo bien se lame

It's a really comfy album from Uruguay with a whole bunch of Brazilian influences but still really smooth and nice.

It's not a solo, there's fuckin random guitar chords and shit in the background. What melody it does manage to have is fuckin messy and rambling. If you like listening to random shit for forty minutes at a time, it's good for you. Giving droning noise a name like, "free jazz", doesn't elevate in anyway. I like something that I can actually remember two seconds later because it has some cohesion to it.

gotta say, i agree here. i like melodic stuff first and foremost. interesting harmonies are great, but they have to support a good melody. melody is king.

If you consider liking postmodern drivel that doesn't follow any of the established musical structural principles that have been developed over the course of hundreds of years and anybody with even a rudimentary undestanding of music can appreciate good taste, then all the more power to you.

A theory nerd and someone who at least admits they're talking about taste argue about taste. They are arguing about taste and as such are both wrong.

I'm enjoying this, even after noticing the story behind it, which reveals that the bassist was fucking around and intentionally trying to ruin the performance. So yeah, definitely goes against theory. Pretty curious what that really implies though. No one can deny the usefulness, historical importance and objectivity of music theory, but I'll let anyone invested expand on that their own as it relates to taste in a meaningful way if they can.

do you play in any alternate tunings?

I play in open G a lot. I find it extremely intuitive, but I can only really play in the key of G.

[musik]ian 06/05/18 (Tue) 04:21:40 No.32015

Piano. I've been playing it for years. It's versatility and, "cleaness", can't be beat. Piano is like music in its purest form, with no instrument characterization. Even when you listen to a harpsichord or organ, you feel like you're listening to the notes through a filter.

Wow, didn't think I would've got a response that quick, but yeah. I play in open D a lot. Didn't the stones use open G? I learned open D from playing Elliott Smith songs mainly, and maybe a couple Bob Dylan ones, like Corrina Corrina (his version of). Can't really say it's any easier, I'm probably just a shit musician.

yeah, the stones used open G, but I mostly play fingerstyle folk stuff

something like this

i have played in open G enough to really know the fretboard and my ear is attuned to what my hand should be doing. the only downfall is that i only play in the key of G.

Song Finding Challenge Anonymous 08/09/18 (Thu) 01:28:57 No.32084 [Reply]

I hope this is an ok place to post this, if not tell me.

I have a song I heard a long time ago, and only remember some of the lyrics, but can find them nowhere on the whole interweb, so perhaps the chan can help me out.

They are part of the chorous and go:

"…,
bring light to the darkness
sight/light to the blind, inspiration to the artist"

I might be mistaken, but I believe they are connected to an artist called "son of saturn" (or perhaps were just burned onto the same disc as his music (it was a long time ago)).

If anyone can help me out in any way, please do so.

Guitar recommendations for 700 or less?
Had a steel string acoustic and an electric but I own neither now.
Would be open to a classical guitar as well.

I recently bought a Taylor Gs mini mahogany for $420 new. Then I paid $80 to have it professionally setup. It plays extremely nicely. The small size means less bass and volume, but that’s not a concern for me.

You could also look at Taylor 114ce, or if you wanna go even cheaper, academy series.

Make sure you buy from Sweetwater and ask for a discount. They will give you around 20% off no problem.

Hey musik-anons, could everyone please dump their all of their downloaded music in a compressed file. I'm going to be offile for awhile and I'd like to have a shit-ton of music to listen to. All genres except rap are good.

[musik]ian 07/25/18 (Wed) 09:28:14 No.32075

Just look for whole discographies, or if you're not smart enough to pirate, get youtube-dl and download playlists.

Do you think Kavinsky is overrated? I feel that like 90% of the songs he makes is painfully average and extremely similar structurally, yet he seems to be praised as the go-to synthwave artist. Now I really don't know much about the genre but if you OP have an opinion on it then I'd love to hear your 2 cents.

I definitely agree that Kavinsky is overrated. I've yet to hear anything that really impresses me on a compositional level.

That, and he's not good at mixing either. Especially Odd Look sounds bad.

When one makes music, they face the choice to package it, present it- essentially objectify it- in an effort to assess its true value- or they could decide not to do that, retreat to their subjective relationship with their music, live in their fantasy, and, well, in a way, honor the music more because music ultimately exists to serve some subjective purpose anyway.

There are so many parallels here, too. Replace "makes music" with "listens to music" (consider last.fm, RYM). Hell, replace it with "relates to other people."

Help me musikchan with my slightly music related existential crisis- what is right? Is there a broad answer for all of this, or if not, how do you draw the lines?

[spoiler]a board called "chill" seems even less appropriate when taken literally, no?[/spoiler]

>music ultimately exists to serve some subjective purpose anyway
No. I refuse to believe that. You didn't actually ask a question. Make music because you enjoy it. Sell it if you want to make money on it. The monetary value of music is not an absolute judge of quality. It measures how much people want it. Lots of garbage music is in high demand. Don't draw any lines because lines are useless and restrictive. Drawing lines won't help you
