internet killed experimental music. everyone knows everything nothing matters. oh wow you know about les rallizes/fushitusha/gerogerigegege? SO DOES FUCKING EVERYONE NOW WHO CARE

The internet completely destroyed the concept of rarity or niche. Anyone can find anything if they put in even the barest amount of effort. That super underground 60s band that was only ever popular with a tiny niche community? Full discography on youtube with 1 million + views on every video. People say the internet killed the monoculture, but I think it's the exact opposite. Everything's just jumbled up in a giant bag now, and that IS the monoculture.

I have to admit it was more fun listening to LRD before boring music nerds found them but they're still my favorite band. Gerogerigege is still funny. I haven't listened to the comeback album that people jizzed over. Fushitsusha/ Keiji Haino is rewarding if you dig through crates of shit to find the gems

Everything is accessible but there's still stuff that gets overlooked. I find cool albums with only a few listeners all the time. Also, time still exists. No matter how much time someone spends discovering music they'll always have humongous blinds spots of vast swathes of artists and scenes they haven't explored.

you faggots just need to get out more. just the other day I walked by this synagogue and found a qr sticker, so I scanned it and found this awesome cryptocore band called pegasus.

I don't think so. Even on this board all everyone ever talks about is pop and hiphop. Even with the information at their fingertips the average normie will simply never decide to delve deeper into an interest.

>internet killed hipsterism because you can't flaunt your super sekrit obscure bands

wow, I used to hate the internet but your faggy post completely changed my mind

>>127161590
only thing this board is for now is pictures of korean girls

oh boo hoo the secret club complex in your brain got broken. how about you leave your ego aside and listen to the fucking music.

>>127161638
>>127161609
Yeah now its cooler to cut your dick off and tell your friends how many genders you have

>>127161587
archival record label that drops old bangers in widely accessible formats

The absolute state of modern music and this board only prove that gatekeeping was 100% correct and should only have been done harder

LRD and Fushitsusha are bad examples because they have one million releases (bootlegs for LRD) so if you just listen to one that isn't bolded on RYM it's probably still pretty good and you can feel superior to the average tourist fan. Seriously 99% of LRD and Fushitsusha fans just listen to 77 Live, the new remastered shows on Spotify, 1st and Pathetique. Even just listening to Double Heads puts you in top 10% of LRD fans.

The Kpop thread is the only continuous unbroken chain between this place and old /mu/. It was there when I arrived in 2010 and it never left.

>>127161503
I often listen to songs on YouTube that have like 100 views, and let me tell you, they are NOT good.

I have a huge thing for like 5/10 asian girls. I see them all the time when I'm out shopping or going to and from work but not when I go out to bars and shit. I don't think they would enjoy being approached at the grocery store or whatever. Is there a place that they congregate where I can mingle with them?

>>127161777
checked, how do you get over the flat pan face?

>>127161713
kpop general getting forced to move her from starcraft 2 general was the end of old /mu/

>>127162109
republicucks are the ones pushing laws that restrict internet access and privacy
Texas banned loli content, Florida forces people to give up their anonymity to access PornHub

>>127162128
pubes are normal, freak.

>>127161566
>scanning random qr codes of the streets

FUCK FUCK FUCK 1,000,000 PEOPLE ONLINE LISTENED TO MY FAVORITE OBSCURE EXPERIMENTAL BAND ONCE AND THEN NEVER LISTENED TO THEM EVER AGAIN

>>127161503
>if they put in even the barest amount of effort
but they don't and that's even more depressing

confusing "small or miiniscule audience" with "niche"
common mistake

also: nice of you to wish financial hardship on musicians you like.

you are stupid. this is not about being cool, this is about sustainability into the future of music. ubiquity is the death knell of inspiration, and sure enough, the few young people who do make music today make uninspired bullshit

>>127161474 (OP)
True

>>127161474 (OP)
>>127161503
>NOOOOOOOO MUSIC ONLY HAS VALUE IF *I* KNOW ABOUT THINGS THAT OTHER PEOPLE DON'T. ITS NOT FAIR THAT NOW EVERYONE KNOWS THE ENTRY LEVEL BANDS I USED TO TAUNT PEOPLE FOR NOT KNOWING!!!!
This is what you sound like anon. Easy access to all kinds of music is a boon.

>>127164770
name some non-entry level bands from these scenes right now you faggot

>>127164513
>ubiquity is the death knell of inspiration
only if you're a follower, true originals will always find away to do their own thing

>>127164770
>Easy access to all kinds of music is a boon.
Then why is /mu/ completely dead except for a few contrarian retards making low effort troll threads that get 0 replies when it was thriving here 15 years ago?

>>127164849
cause this is a korean girl posting board

>>127164513
>this is not about being cool
Yes it is, and that's fine. There's no need to pretend otherwise anymore.

>>127164849
Be realistic. There are many reasons for that. Music discussion is thriving elsewhere now.

>>127164513
True, it's a well known and documented fact that all the older talented artists never ever found or listened to any obscure experimental music, and that they were only inspired by mainstream music.
So of course when underground acts became more accessible, music went to complete shit!!!!!!

>>127161474 (OP)
>>127161503
You cannot convince me these are bad things or even matter. Because I'm not a hipster

>>127164849
>/mu/ sucks so music is dead
Anon this entire website has only gotten worse for years. except the history board. /mu/ is not a tastemaker anymore

>>127164513
>this is not about being cool
gatekeeping bands you like is only about being cool -- and depriving those bands of a bigger audience

I know that confuses the Ethan so put it this way:
those cool bands are made up of humans
humans who need to pay for food and rent and electricity and heat
and people like you who think of these bands like your own little hot house tomatoes you can stress to make them juicier are forcing them to have to abandon making music so they can eat, you uncreative arrogant middle-class angsty consoomer cunt

>>127165052
wtf where? reddit? RYM? lmao

>>127165358
I don't use those sites, so I wouldn't know about that. Maybe it is. All I know is I'm having lots of good music discussions online, but not on this board.

>>127165095
you fucking retard, i'm saying people used to have to go out of their way to find this shit and that made it special and imbued it with an actual experience instead of just sitting on the computer which is what everyone does now which is why nothing is special now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

>>127165345
>gatekeeping bands you like is only about being cool
nah. anything that gets too popular ultimately will begin catering to a wider audience and ultimately water down their art and make it more generic.

>>127161657

>>127166188
what about bands who died in obscurity before the 21st century and made popular by the internet postmortem
