Eh...
Pretty sure the dark ages came *before* the Renaissance, when the majority of the classical music we listen to was produced.

I'll generally just listen to this week's Trance Around the World. Above & Beyond is good shit, and trance with some headphones can make boring parts of videogames (Mass Effect 1 sidequests or MMO grindan) awesome.

>>43898516
plus you can't shrug off music produced through a real understanding of musical theory, unlike most of what is produced today

>>43898516

IS IT THEN, YOUR CLAIM, THAT THE DARK AGES HAPPENED BEFORE THE REINEISSANCE?

Fuck yeah OP, this motherfucker right here was the most hardcore composer in the history of mankind. I could've been arsed to list some of his more impressive achievements, but I'll settle with pointing out dat hair and fashion sense.

Also, Sonata 18 in C-Minor, OP 13, Pathétique.

I listen to all my favorite music. Classical music that makes me go "fuck yeah, I'm a badass" is definitely played.
And jazz.
It seems all of /v/ likes metal, jazz, classical, techno, and/or rock.

Beethoven is overrated. Ravel, Rachmaninoff, Prokofiev, Debussy - all better.

If it's not the game soundtrack, it's from a badass movie soundtrack.

>OP posts generic, overused, overrated baroque composition

>They're all calling it "classical"

Listen up motherfuckers. Beethoven is extremely overrated and hasn't really done anything as astonishing as other composers. Never call music of this genre "classical". You too would rage if someone said they loved listening to rock when in fact there are so many different kinds that the term rock gives no indication as to what they're talking about. You people sicken me trying to act elitist about something you are all obviously completely unlearned on.

THAT COMPOSER IS FAMOUS AND LIKED BY MOST PEOPLE, THEREFOR HE IS BAD, do you even hear yourself? just shut the fuck up you stupid faggot

coltrane all up in this bitch

>>43900206
No! People merely know him from Ode to Joy and almost nothing else! People say that they like Beethoven but I can almost guarantee that they couldn't name a single composer from that era who is Russian. Some people may be not-stupid-enough to know Bach and Handel but I'm sure nothing else. They talk like experts when they truly know nothing.

Also, since we were talking classical

>>43900342

Listen nigger, noone here is claiming to be an expert on your so called "classical music", we're just enjoying GOOD music. Also, are you fucking Russian, the fuck do you care where the composers are from? If Russians wrote good music they might be as famous as Beethoven, eh?

Seeing as I enjoy classical music, I'll just say Little King's Story was a very pleasant experience for me. Public domain soundtrack, fuck yes.

>>43900088
Listen here son, just because you listen to the bits and whistles of most 20th century classical composers, Beethoven set that shit down. That nigga had to come with a brand new work of art every other day or he would've quickly lost his good graces and been some other nobody parlor player

>>43900342
Spoiler warning: most "classical" composers are known in modern times for one piece of music. It's sad, but the same thing you said of Beethoven could be said of Mozart (Fur Elise), Grieg (Hall of the Mountain King), Prokofiev (Peter and the Wolf), and countless others.
Some have so permeated modern culture that they have lost their creators along the way, and everyone knows the piece but no one knows who wrote it. Strauss, I would say, is the definitive example of this with Also Sprach Zarathustra

>>43900532

Speaking of which, Russian communist music is just about the most epic thing ever concieved on paper. The USSR National Anthem is so pompous and straight up orgasmic I couldn't even concentrate properly the first times I heard it in Painkiller.

Massive brain fart. What I meant to type was that Beethoven has more than one well-known piece AND one could say the same about Mozart. Somehow I combined the two.

Feel free to lay down the law and educate us on what the pinnacle of classical musicianship is in your learned opinion, faggot. Go ahead, provide a link, this is how they did it back then, proof or apology, don't say you know the hottest artist in theatre if you can't show up. Let's hear some fucking compositions, bitch.

Fine. Let's call it Romantic. Hope that clarifies things to your liking. Chopin isn't classical either, is he? What the fuck is Stravinsky? Let's not bother calling Phillip Glass ANYTHING AT ALL. Bitch, you are the pretentious elitist one here. Not everyone insists that other people refer to the music they enjoy as post-rock sludgecore, because that isn't a genre, that is a cluster of buzzwords that we make the fuck up. You're a faggot if you think that you have anything on people who like Beethoven. I don't give a fuck if he is "overrated" or what have you, we like it.

You're a tremendous music snob, and nobody likes your bands, so kill yourself.

Unless you have any solid recommendations on REAL classical music from the three or so decades between Baroque and Romantic, you cunt.
