Share thread, /mu/rmaids?http://www.megaupload.com/?d=GMVTTB9AJefrey Lewis - The Last Time I Did Acid I Went InsaneI really really like this album. It's fairly standard anti-folk really, but he pulls it off so well, and his voice is kinda really cool. He sprung up in the NY anti-folk scene in the '90s and was popular on the live circuit but this was his first 'real' full length album release. A couple of the songs suck actually, but all the others are fantastic. Oh also it's lo-fi as fuck so don't expect clean production.http://www.megaupload.com/?d=jhnrkew8Jeffrey Lewis - City & Eastern Songs

What in the fuck is anti-folk?
It wont let me share, it keeps saying no NON-ASCII text permitted.I have no idea what that means. I'll just contribute koala.

>>5548416thanks I'll download it right away
>>5548353Europe lost the last decent musicians they had when The Beatles and pals migrated to USA to study real good music. All the music of the 20th Century that was any good came from the Americas.All Europe has now is Brunos queer DJ music and screamer parody metal from Finland. It is really pathetic.

>>5548453>I don't know anything about modern music
>modern... music>implying there is anything to know about modern music other than it is complete shit
>>5548453you see i really like the beatles but im talking SHOSTAKOVICH here, not comparatively banal pop
>>5548345>>5548345I've always wanted to meet my fans as well. I'll be on /mu/ for quite some time, I think, so you can reach me there.I have a birthday coming up and movie premiere coming up, (Zombieland) so I might not be on so much this week.
>>5548555BILL MURRAY FUCKING OWNSim writing a movie right now. bill murray as a serial killer and scarlett johanssen as a prostitutegonna own so bad
>>5548559A prostitute, you say?Be sure to write me in a sex scene.
>>5548545>pop>has never heard a Beatles track other than what's on the A side of Help
>>5548565actually, the first scence will be bill murray hiring herand shes really bad at it, and he says something incredibly funny while shes (badly) blowing himlike"damn, if i hated wanted someone totally incompetent to suck my dick, i couldve asked my wife. or, well, that gay hooker from last week. takes less for anal as well"and scarlett is like"ewwwww"or something. basically, my idea was to not actually write dialogue for bill murray cause HE is funny, I am not, i would simply let him improvise funny stuff. and scarlett wouldnt talk neither, she would simply look incredible sexy and say ewwww and erm ever so oftenmovie will owbn so bad
>>5548567i can play blackbird on the guitar fyibealtes are good, but pop is like ... pop. and REAL music is on a completely different level. just cant argue with that if youve ever listened, really LISTENED to the st. johns passion or shostakovichs cello concertos
Yeah i'll share. Go down to a music shop and take some cash. PIRATING FAGGOT
>>5548588God I hope I'm being trolled
>>5548580Speedy West skullfucks your cellofag hero.But you have no clue who that is so what's the point.
>>5548580Oh, I can play Blackbird too. I can also play Buckaroo and Ride The Lightning.wanna fight?
>>5548611i have no idea who that is but i bet you a night with my sister that hes never leaving the tonal system established by bach 300 years ago and left behind by serious music approx. 1890, if not earlier.
>>5548598what ALWAYS fucking gets me is that his father's name is BORTOGO.FUCK.
>>5548616i dont know buckaroo, but ride the lightning is pretty easy isnt it? most metallica stuff isi can play, uhm ... actually, i cant play that well. i can play bachs partitia in e (bwv 1006), the preldue? though not especially fast
>>5548619He plays music that would make Mozart shit a Buick.Not even joking.Back could not even hang with his shit. Pros today still cannot duplicate his sound because people still do not know what he was doing to get his sound.He made Toucan calls with a 10 string guitar.
>>5548631Jimmy Bryants swinging guitar is much more complex.I doubt you could play half his stuff.
>>5548641>Back could not even hang with his shit. Pros today still cannot duplicate his sound because people still do not know what he was doing to get his sound.sound is paraphernalia. i am talking about MUSIC. sound is what engineers do in the studio, its a craft, you can teach anybody to do sound, even a computer.im not talking sound. im talking music. so were not really having a discussion, youre simply not up to the standards.
>>5548647Jazz is more complex than your minor scale classicfag. l2progress
>>5548668classical music was using scales. since wagner, not so much.and shostakovich has eaten up jazz and shat it out again
>>5548694Sorry bruder, but Pedal Steel is the most complex instrument made by man. Your cello and viola fags can suck a fat cock and marvel at 20 strings on 2 necks with 12 pedals and 6 knee levers.
>>5548705yeah but "complexity" only interests people who like heavy metal more than their parents. sorry for your bad childhood :(
This is what I see when I look at your picture.
>>5548718Jazz and swing does not have to be shredder fast. It is about the structure. And it is undeniably more complex than classical.
>>5548718This, fucking this. I can find death metal that has a more complex sound than anything Bach ever wrote, but you'd probably have to tie me down to make me listen to it over Bach. Complexity is cool if it's your thing, but it does nae guarantee better music. Speedy West is a favorite guitarist of mine, but he's not god, and there are better than him. Hell, Arturo Sandoval on trumpet is vastly better, if you ask me.
>>5548751TECHNICAL SKILL =/= MUSICAL COMPLEXITY
>>5548737who the fuck is even talking about classical music? i have used the names bach (not clas.), shostakovich (either), wagner (neither), sibelius (neither) ...jesus do you knwo ANYTHING about music
>>5548776and neither is actually that related to musical QUALITY.
>>5548751Speedy West does not play the guitar, bro.I do not believe you have ever heard him before.
>>5548790Well in that case, yeah, The Beatles > BachThanks for proving my original point with add homonym.
>>5547745Anti-folk? I've heard his song "Roll Bus Roll". What's anti-folk? I just thought he was indie, and Roll Bus Roll was cool.
>>5548705I want to play Pedal Steel. I want to play it so fucking bad. I'd play Pedal Steel on every album ever if I could play it well.
>>5548806but bach is of higher quality than the beatles :("mache dich, mein herze, rein" is one of the most touching pieces of music ever written. i mean, i LOVE girl, or hide your love, or ticket to ride, but its not the passion of st. matthew.
Several gigabytes of classical music in V0:http://lolyesyoudo.blogspot.com/2009/09/megapost.htmlIf you have trouble deciding what to download first, I'd be glad to give you recommendations.
>>5548852Blackbird > Yourshit
>>5548838I play lap steel. There are 3 pedal steels in my house because my dad is pro.I am afraid of his pedal steels. And he can play better organ music than St.Ramstiens.
>>5548916Strip away the lyrics, see if the music expresses something, a change of mood or emotion. It doesn't, does it? It just drones along with little contrast or musical development, it's simplistic from a structural viewpoint. Every minor Bach aria is more sophisticated, more expressive, more complex than this.
>>5548957>>5548718samechap
Perfect example of what /mu/ is like, for those who don't feel like going there when it's up.Serious thread ----> greentext 'implying' -----. trolling and arguing -----> moar greentext -----> cycle repeats
>>5548957Blackbird... not complex... not emotional
>>5548619Your "modern" tonal system is obsolete. William Sethares has developed a generalized theory of consonance and dissonance that can be used to construct any tuning system you want. This is the biggest breakthrough in music theory of all time, and if you think innovation in music is important you should study it.Theory:http://eceserv0.ece.wisc.edu/~sethares/consemi.htmlExamples:http://eceserv0.ece.wisc.edu/~sethares/otherperson/all_mp3s.html
>>5548990i'm feeling like home already :)
>>5548991I guess it's fairly complex by pop standards, but there's still no real musical development, no counterpoint, no expressive modulation, etc. Now this is a simple, yet expressive song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cv877FV16xY&fmt=18

>>5549031Sorry brah. Opera is faggot shit. Patsy Cline expressed more emotion in a 3 minute cut of Crazy or Sweet Dreams than your gay I-talian uncle.
this is some high class trolling right here
>>5549043Listen to the examples before you criticize it. It can be used to produce unlistenable dissonant crap, or music that is actually more consonant that anything possible in traditional systems, eg:http://eceserv0.ece.wisc.edu/~sethares/mp3s/Three_Ears.mp3Dissonance can now be mathematically calculated in a way that very closely matches human perception. This means we can create microtonal music that doesn't sound like shit, which greatly expands the possibilities for good innovative music.
>>5549031Peter Rowan has a better voice with a wider range.
>>5549089>a Schubert Lied>operaTeehee, I sure love conversing with the musically illiterate! Nice arguments, bro.
Music share thread eh?Does anyone have Europe - The Final Countdown? I want to make a G.O.B.-esque ringtone from it, but haven't bothered downloading the whole album just for that one track.
>>5549124I got the entire album bro.>>5549126It does not make it any less awful music. Seriously that is the worst shit since rap.
>>5549106Too bad his timbre is smoky, his volume pathetic and his intonation questionable. You obviously have no idea what you're talking about, bro. Wunderlich is widely considered the greatest German lyric tenor of the last century.
>>5549158Wunderlich is a power-bottom and his music is crap.
Hatsune Miku is the best singer of all time. I'd rather listen to her than any of those opera fags.
>>5549140It's not about it being good music. If anything, it's about it being comically bad music.
>>5549126You can download individual files from torrents brah, so fucking google it you lazy cunt./mu/ angers me so much with its OH PLZZ SOMEONE UPLOAD X why are they all so incapable of finding torrents/rapidshares on their own.
>>5549158>Wunderlich is widely considered the greatest German lyric tenor of the last century.Yeah, by you and the 3 other people on that planet that actually buy and listen to that atrocious music.But hey, at least it ain't techno...
>>5549176You seem to run out of arguments, bro.
>>5549014>Your "modern" tonal system is obsolete.but nobody ive been talking about but for bach (who invented it 300 years ago, not exactly modern) is using the tonal system. you know nothing about music.
>>5549031I could not make it 30 seconds before I had to turn that shit off.Why do people like shitty music /mu/?
>>5549241You're still using 12 divisions of the octave (equal or just or tempered), and still using harmonic series based instruments. That is exactly the obsolete tonal system I am talking about. And people have tried various microtonal systems, but other than a few that were good by luck (eg. 19EDO), they all sounded bad because they were lacking the theoretically grounding of how humans perceive consonance. Now that Sethares has solved this you can start making good microtonal music.
>>5549257>Why do people like shitty music /mu/?see, its just like with homoseuxality. some people just dont like schubert/woman. we call them faggots/faggots.
>>5549257What exactly bothered you about it? I'm curious.
>>5549263you just made the musical equivalent of RON PAUL 2012
Even if you stubbornly stick with traditional scale/timbre/harmony, Sethare's theory is still valuable as an analysis tool:http://eceserv0.ece.wisc.edu/~sethares/banuelos/banuelos.htm(here it is applied to Berg's violin concerto, which is widely considered one of the best "modern" uses of traditional tuning).

>>5549318Bad singing? In what way?
>>5549324No, Pythagoras's theory was only a very limited special case of Sethares's theory. Additionally Pythagoras was wrong about very many things. Just intonation is not automatically better than equal temperament. Sethares's theory can be applied to any sound possible, even sounds that can't be generated by acoustic instruments.
>>5549326nolookpure intervalls are OCD bullshit.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=44NIhuwWciYif this does not make you cry a bit you are pretty much a monkeynothing against monkeys monkeys are cute and all but youre just not made for this "appreciating art" thing
Why does this thread piss me off so much?
>>5549324http://eceserv0.ece.wisc.edu/~sethares/mp3s/circleofthirds.htmlThis is not just quibbling over a few cents, this is something that is literally impossible with traditional instruments. Have you ever heard 10EDO tuning on traditional instruments?
>>5549356back then they noticed that any given (non retarded) solution of setting up your intervalls was impurenobody but a few freaks cared, they made music insteadnowadays, nobody cares, everyone is too busy listening and making music to worry about irrelevant stupidyou can point out how their formulation of "the scales arent perfect" wasnt perfect, but still, its this: the scales arent perfect.the goldberg variations own everything ever made up for alternative setups, hell, blackbird and yesterday do. you get your own bach, your own chopin, your own, hell, your own lennon. then well talk. you got your own calculator. thats sweet. teach him to touch people.
>>5549363Read the fucking theory, moron. It's nothing to do with OCD interval purity or those fucking just intonation mystical faggots. It's a generalization of traditional music theory to apply to ANY SOUND IMAGINABLE. You're stuck in your harmonic series mindset and you're refusing to consider that it's not some magical perfect music, but only a coincidence that physical instruments happen to make those sounds.
>>5549342Bad as in it is the opposite of good.I would rather listen to two cats fighting than that unpalatable guff.
>>5549373no im too busy to jerk off over that youtube i linked to care about tuningsyou know how us guitarists handle tuning? we turn up the distortion
>>5549391do you use gold plated 2000$ cables for your sound system, tooyou know how people play bach on historical isntruments even? thats the same retard that is you, but coming from the other sidewhocares
Music that is machine like in perfect pitch and time has no soul.
>>5549393But how is it bad? His diction is impeccable, his timbre, beautiful, his intonation flawless. You just have no idea what constitutes good singing I'm afraid.What would you call good singing?
>>5549380You are showing no evidence of understanding that traditional tuning is only a consequence of the physical properties of string/standing wave oscillators, and there is absolutely no need to continue using it now that we can synthesize any sound without physical limitations. Sethares's system is a kind of musical meta-theory, for generating any type of musical theory possible. You seem to know just enough music theory/physics/psychoacoustics to think you understand everything, when actually you only understand a tiny fraction of what is possible.YOU ARE THE REASON WHY MUSIC IS DEAD. FUCK ALL YOU PROGRESS HATING MUSICIANS.
I can fart in F#
>>5549405This has nothing to do with audiophiles or sound quality. There is nothing subtle about it, unless you deliberately make it subtle. Listen to the examples and hear the innovation even on the shittiest possible sound system.
>>5549031I have no idea how can you consider this 'expressive'. Sure, it's sung very good, but it's... sterile. Emotionally dead. Not moving in any way. What is wrong with you?
>>5549427He could sing Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head in perfect pitch, and nuance... it is still shitty music.>>5549429Steel Guitar is the only instrument they cannot synthesize... and synths sound like shit anyway. Go back to Europe with your electronic fail music.
>>5549448What do you consider moving then?
>>5549406this is a stupid reflection of your young age or limited intellect .. do you play the guitar?
>>5549448I agree. It is trite bullshit. Only a pseudo-intellectual hipster faggot could muster the gumption to sit through a recording of that tin-ear shit music.
>>5549451You have failed to understand the purpose of synthesis. If you're trying to duplicate real instruments you might as well use real instruments. If you ignore real instruments you can create things like a real "circle of thirds", which is not possible with any real instrument.
jesus christ im sold this is the best music ever nobody should listen to anything but thishttp://eceserv0.ece.wisc.edu/~sethares/mp3s/Circle_of_Thirds.mp3ever, ever againalso, pron haul two oh twelve...seriously, this whole discussion was just an elaborate troll to make me waste 4 (well, 2) minutes of my life to listen to that piece of crap yes?
>>5549490Don't listen to the composition, or "soul" or anything like that, listen to the harmonies. It's a demonstration of something that is truly new, so it doesn't matter whether it's a great composition or not. Sethares is primarily a scientist, music is only a hobby for him. But he's creating the tools that better musicians can use to create truly great and innovative works.
ITTa lot of ignorant fucks who took music appreciation at community college. go eat a bag of dicks and shut up. who cares what other people like to listen to and who gives a shit about their stupid opinion. listen to music that you like and keep your nigger mouth shut. fucken-A, i swear...
>>5549482Enjoy your soulless shit music.I will stick to my rag-time and blues... thay have soul.
>>5549490That was pretty interesting thank you for sharing.
Have some /mu/core.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vtnG6EHh1N4
I was going to go to mutant-sounds.blogspot or officenaps or smoothassailing but then i saw this threadthanks r9gay
>>5549490The guy who made those sounds needs to burn in The Lake of Fire.Awful awful whiskey shits.
>>5549554That example was chosen for clarity of unusual harmonies, not enjoyment. There are many other examples:http://eceserv0.ece.wisc.edu/~sethares/otherperson/all_mp3s.html
>>5549531I actually thought something was wrong with my fridge for a moment there.
>>5549596There was no discernible harmony in that entire horrid mp3, you tone-deaf motherfucker.
Camille Saint-Saens - Danse Macabrehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YyknBTm_YyM
>>5549596>>5549498it is really, really bad music nobody should ever have to listen to. the other pieces on that page suck, too. its shit music. its really, really bad. i dont care how optimized the harmonies are, it is bad.
>>5549666Then compose some non-harmonic series based music yourself. Even if it's bad at least it will be new, which makes it better than all music written with traditional timbres and tuning.
>>5549687whyalso, if you think that klingon war song you linked to, and that thing composed accordingly to fourier transformations, and that other idiocy on that page are good music, you should pray they develope a pill for aspergers soon, cause you, my friend, have it.aspergers.and no idea what good music is.
OH GOD WHAT HAVE I DONEBLAWMS
>>5549704also, i bet you 3 internets that you could not tell any of your proposed tuning systems from each other in an AB blind test significantly above chance level, and nobody else can, neither
>>5549658Thanks for this. Had never head of Saint Saens. Already downloading some concertos.
>>5549687>Even if it's bad at least it will be new, which makes it better than all music written with traditional timbres and tuning.Complete and utter moron, detected.Go back to math club you habitual virgin freak.
>>5549704I probably do, but I'm still right.
>>5548016mu is as shitty as always, but its cool enough, you know. whatever. its 4chan for christs sake, what do you guys expect?
>>5549715yeah, thanks to you i listened to a "klingon war chant" perfectly tuned to 60 tones per octave or whatever that shit was.and it still hurts.>>5549727your band sucks
>>5549720It's not a "tuning system" like just vs equal temperament! It can be differences of hundreds of cents, not only a few!
>>5549760and i bet you couldnt tell it apart from regular tunings with more than 66% of the time in a controlled study
>>5549666Are you a fucking retard? The point of the matter isn't that what he's linked to is actually good quality music (it frankly sucks). The linked music is simply proof of concept of a method which musicians who actually have talent can then use to produce good music.This Sethares guy is like the first dude who figured out oil paint. That guy probably was a terrible artist, but later on, artistic geniuses took his innovation and used it to make beautiful art.
>>5549826yes but lookwe are talking pictures here, not paint. i say "the mona lisa is beautiful", he says "no it isnt, it wasnt done in 128 dpi!"
>>5549826No one will ever use his shitty wasted life of a discovery to make music.So because one faggot figured out 1 scale that makes him hot shit?Sorry, but Sgt.Pepper is over 9000 times more important to music history and evolution than your gay uncles awful scale.
