Welcome, my good sir.

Thanks for the welcome.

Sorry for the late response to all these posts, got a bit busy over the past week.

People talk about not having a solid new member, yet I've been here since May.

Maybe I'm not recognized because I don't really post at all outside the audio forum.

Because, let's face it, politics and general are huge HUGE piles of shit most of the time. If not all of the time.

Quoted for truth

Another thing I notice is that I often see more users around here with 20 posts or less than I do with users 300 posts or more. Hmm....

That's because they realize that the Audio forums are too awesome for them. And then they go to the General forums.

And talk about the latest hilarious lolcats image they saw.

Gosh I guess I must be bitter or something.

Small post about recommending a band:
So, does anyone around here listen to Black Moth Super Rainbow?
I've been listening to a bit of their stuff, and I gotta say, I am thoroughly impressed.
Look them up if you haven't, you won't regret it.

Yes, I hear that the meal they serve you contains up to 50% less "dry" and "suck" than usual.

Which still leaves 50% more "dry" and "suck" than you should ever consume.

Overly conservative musical taste

I really wonder sometimes why people get it into their head that music needs a melody in order for it to be music. I'm getting a little flak for that in my latest two songs, which do not have melodies in them.

I mean, as it stands, with the whole ambient thing, and all the musical progressions that have happened since the turn of last century, I don't think we can be stuck making music in the same way forever, because it stagnates. I love all the old 'classical' music, and would love to write some music like that as well, but I know that it's better usually if you can do more things than just make a bunch of copies of Beethoven and get respect . I love Beethoven dearly, but I'd rather be EmperorCharlemagne than Beethoven, see.

What are your thoughts on modern musical conventions, or holdovers of older musical conventions?

The only reason why anything is as it is in the music world is because someone centuries ago decided to begin dictating "order." Had things have gone differently, who knows. Everything would have changed. The only reason why people have standards when it comes to music is because they understand whatever it is they will. Regardless of what you think, there will always be other people to disagree with everything you have to say because they see the world differently. Had things of gone differently, music as we know it today could not even have come to exist. What you're starting to look at is a branch of quantum mechanics and any number of things could have, never have been, and might be on an infinite number of dimensions sitting right next to you.

When you start looking at it that way, everything starts looking a little more conservative doesn't it?

Ignorance: bliss. Get back to work ^_^

Sorry if that seemed a little off. I haven't slept in two days :P

Should I dod something about that?

Or Steve Reich or John Adams.
Or hell, most post-Webernian music for that matter.

On what you've said, EmperorChalemagne, I pretty much agree with Quarl. Someone along time ago decided music sounded best a certain way, so people are going to continue doing things that way as long as it sounds good to them, even though that person probably died along time ago.

I also think its a lack of understanding. Not everyone has a musical background, so they dont realize there is no real "correct" way to make music. And therefore, because they don't understand it, they don't like it. And with the very little kids are being taught about music in school nowadays unless they pursue it privately, I don't see that changing anytime soon unless someone who uses untraditional methods in music gets massively popular with a large portion of the public. Which again, I dont see happening anytime soon.

Me for example, I like use of melodys alot, I'm not going to lie, but I'm open to alot of things musically and I dont think something like not having a melody would interfere with my opinion unless I'm intentionally comparing it to other pieces. But again, thats because I have enough of a musical background as many here do, whether exploring it on their own level or on a scholarly level, to appreciate effort put into music despite differences from what I usually listen to.

So yeah, thats my opinion.

I don't think you have to become a mod for that

Mods
The thing I don't get is why some other people who should really get modded don't. It would probably make life a lot easier. And longer, as stress CAN in fact, kill you.
