Why does no one talk about them anymore? Has the old userbase been completely replaced?

>>128111535 (OP)
Why would they still be talked about? There's no reason to do so.

>>128111933
Because they're mostly good, timeless albums?

>>128111535 (OP)
>Has the old userbase been completely replaced?
Yes
>Why does no one talk about them anymore?
They do. But people prefer to talk about how kpop artists are and how they find women hot

>>128111535 (OP)
there are still plenty of oldfags on /mu/ but the sad reality is that /mu/ is a zoomer and advertiser shill board now that's better for shitposting than actual music discussion. despite this id argue that the overall quality of the board is much better now than it has been in quite a few years

>>128111949
>Because they're mostly good, timeless albums?
they're not
most of it is low test and boring, with few exceptions here like Nevermind

>>128112048
Bad bait

>>128111535 (OP)
>Has the old userbase been completely replaced?
yes been that way for quite a while

>>128112056
I told you the truth as to why people who weren't here when the hivemind was in full force are now completely nonplussed by what you'd been indoctrinated to worship.

>>128112138
I think you listened to beefhart didn't like it listened to MWPP didn't like it and then decided that the rest must also be albums you don't like. Go back to /b/

Psy op

>>128112190
now take that and let's say a dozen more random albums from that list and you will have the average experience of a newer /mu/ user who's come to realize this conception of /mu/core ought to be disregarded

if you want /mu/core cultists you're more likely to find them on RYM

these albums are from a certain period in time, i think a lot are still good but it's very 2010s coded
i don't see a 2020s /mu/core being very good but it'd be interesting to see, i still think a lot of these are decent but don't know what i'd put in a new /mu/core, plus if anyone sincerely tried it'd be shred into a million pieces upon first contact

>>128112248
>it's very 2010s coded
Well it was made in 2015

>>128112284
well it's been 10 years, i'm not saying throw the baby out with the bathwater, i don't think there's consensus as to what's good, more like just people know what's popular and talk about it, no muh epic deep indie cuts like used to be the 'vibe' but maybe board is just so populated it can't be anything but le epic shitpost
obscure just to be obscure is obnoxious but just liking what's popular isn't very adventurous either, dunno how you'd make a new list

>>128111535 (OP)
As much as I respect this chart /jazz/ doesn't even come close to being good chart

>>128112372
While a new list would be cool I agree with you that it would be an almost impossible task in our modern day and age. But maybe some anons could work together to make a awesome new chart this thread?

if someone decided to be an asshole they could make a fake new /mu/core and just spam it until it's the real new /mu/core and put le epic troll whatever they want on there to influence masses of people, very villainous but possible

>>128112248
>coded
You need to go back

>>128112408
Just a starting point I think these are all albums the /mu/core chart doesn't have but /mu/tants like

>>128112515
i can tear this into shreds in 5 seconds
>muh nig rap
>muh edgy nirvana omg so good!11!!!
>they might be giants - nothing more needs to be said
>unwound gay edgy crap
>two literally whos
i don't actually care but be prepared for lots of that

>>128112515
>>128112408
if you're going to try, more power to you maybe others will try and join in instead of just tear it down

>>128112515
I don't like any of these albums.

>>128112515
Anons this is starting to come together

>>128112587
What albums do you like then?

>>128112594
this just looks like your own personal preferences

>>128112597
Old /mu/core albums

>>128112547
I think one problem with trying to make these charts is everyone will disagree for example:
>>128112587
>>128112048

we could try starting from fresh, refreshing our ears, and mass voting on individual albums, or make a committee or something (probably bad idea as that 'committee' would greatly shape the chart from their own biases)
issues: can easily be manipulated, probably a lot more
and personally i have some sacred cows I don't want gone if tastes have shifted

>>128112605
I don't like Nirvana, Drive Like Jehu, Unwound, and I think while Getting Killed is overrated right now /mu/ has been talking about it and praising it for enough to deserve being on a /mu/core chart. The jazz stuff is based on history and what listening to what fellow jazz listeners and players have said for years. Ride Nowhere is a must listen and The New Sound is some /mu/ jazz fusion

>>128112668
well, more power to you for at least trying maybe it's worth a shot

>>128112652
>(probably bad idea as that 'committee' would greatly shape the chart from their own biases
While true I think if you an open enough "committee" you can get some real music discussion

>>128112706
Also I have only heard so much music so I need others to be able to make a "real" chart

>>128112720
i just know other boards have been shitted up by tranny discords planning/coordinating how to fuck it up so i'd be sad if that happened to /mu/ too, although i suppose there's no guarantee of that happening

>>128112735
for what it's worth I believe other boards in the past did it by just making threads with a 'theme' then voting repeatedly, I believe /lit/ has done that to pick the best books by consensus

Unfortunately a new /mu/core chart would be inevitably worse than the classic one(s) because /mu/'s taste is significantly worse now.

>>128112594
Fixed the albums that were already on the old chart turns out I'm blind. I think I'll go till 5x5 but what do you anons think of this

>>128112817
Also just to be clear this chart isn't to replace but to be an extension of the old /mu/ chart

>>128111535 (OP)
ITAOS sucks major ass. Terrible album.

>>128112211
This

>>128112817
Anons what do you all think of this?

I miss old /mu/.
Where is the ITAOTS spam? Where are Last.fm and share threads?

>>128113130
>Where are Last.fm and share threads?
>>128097617
Anons make a new one every day or so. While /mu/ is a terrible right now from all the celebfag threads there are still plenty of good threads

Damn I really made it. I remember being 14 seeing the essentials chart for the first time and being daunted by it. I haven't looked at it in years but now at almost 30 I think I've listened to almost every single album on here just naturally from exploring on my own. 14 year old me would think that was so cool if he didn't know I'm also a broke loser now.

>>128113200
It took you 15-17 years to listen to like 300 albums?

>>128113066
i see a lot of ariel pink spam sometimes. there's always people saying its him making the thread but i have no idea. idk maybe he should count

>>128111535 (OP)
because it's 90% garbage

>>128113266
I don't know enough about him to put him in. Do you have any examples of ariel pink spam?

>>128113216
No dumbass I mean I've listened to 1000s of albums over that time and now when I see this chart I see a bunch of albums I've listened to, unlike when I first saw it and it was unfamiliar.

>>128113335
Tell us the 10%

Well would you look at that people like it might as well put it in thank you anon

ariel pink is great

I forgot about some more albums /mu/ talks about

>>128113685
>talk about =/= /mu/core
but if im just sitting here criticizing you
i suppose it's not a bad start if we're 10 years behind

>>128113685
replace Brat with something else that bitch made i'm so mad at her for selling out

>>128113066
Fuck this crap chart, 6 jazz albums, but zero representation for my favorite genres.
>>128113335
True, if /mu/ core were the only music that exists, I'd rather read a book or play videogame.

>>128113704
As much as I want this be kino since I'm the only person I need to rely on what I've seen people on /mu/ think are good albums

>>128113717
>Fuck this crap chart, 6 jazz albums, but zero representation for my favorite genres.
Go on...
>>128113711
Yeah the more I think about it brat is a shitty pick got any ideas what to replace it with?

>>128113735
im biased towards charli so i'd say pop 2 but if you'd rather have some other album thats fine. fags do get hostile sometimes

>>128112495
To?

>>128113778
Good with pop 2

>>128113685
Missing this.

>>128113796
Agree

>>128112817
Getting killed is despised on the board

>>128113838
Half loved half despised that's true for some stuff on the /mu/core board today anyway

>>128113130
I stopped making sharethreads myself because they became useless. I'll post stuff if other people start one

More and also a bit less shitty then prev version

>>128113894
This is an obvious one.

>>128111535 (OP)
what needs to be said has already been said so theres nothing left

>>128111535 (OP)
i hope so

>>128113796
had tried this because the cover was cool and thought it was trash

this shit ain't /mu/core but it FUCKING should be
RIP lee perry man. that was one of the worst days in recent memory

>>128111535 (OP)
>Master of Puppets
Needs to be replaced with St Anger
>Saturday Night Wrist
Needs to be replaced with White Pony or Around The Fur
>Korn
Needs to be replaced with Take A Look In The Mirror

>>128113348
riff abundant albums = good
riff lacking albums = bad

Alright anons I think this is starting to look good

>>128114367
Looks as good as Pissgrave covers, you're lucky there's no downvote button on 4chan.

>>128114529
Name one album

>>128114367
we have new /mu/ core
now what

>>128114556
Manually add it to the /mu/core chart and make it the new /mu/core chart on the wiki I guess

>>128114556
Not new /mu/core yet right now it's just the chart of one guy and a couple of anons suggestions

>>128114586
thats the definition of /mu/core
old /mu/core was that too

>>128114594
I guess but I've got a sense that my chart could be better

>>128114586
once it gets really big we should do a series of polls to trim fat. like simple yes or no "do you like this" stuff. i know modern /mu/ is mostly dead but i remember at least one of those bracket threads happening like a year or two ago so there's a chance!

>>128114616
I would love to see that video do you have the link?

>>128114628
i broke the bot guys

where's the bot

>>128114367
I know there's already a sizable jazz representation, but I'm surprised there's no Wes Montgomery in the original. We should add Smokin' At The Half Note

>>128115195
As good as that album is I don't think /mu/ even knows who Wes Montgomery is

>>128112831
Call it the ten year anniversary special deluxe edition

>>128113527
He’s a shill. Don’t fall for it
>>128113796
No
>>128113908
Fuck off

>>128115342
kek

>>128115372
Good albums that /mu/ likes

>>128115262
I feel like he gets mentioned often enough in jazz threads.

>>128115463
You know what since it has Grant Green Smokin' At The Half Note has to be in there too. Starting to worry this has become a /jazz/ chart with some /mu/core

>>128114628
https://desuarchive.org/mu/thread/92198450/#92202196 found it

>>128114367
You should add Jorge Ben. I feel like I see him in pretty much every chart thread now.

>>128115507
You could replace Miles Davis' Relaxin' or Workin'. No need to have both I would think.

>>128115627
I have to resist to put in the entire prodigy record series. The problem is that each jazz record has it's own sound, tunes, and mood making it where jazz chart either has too little or to much of the same artists over and over again

This is the last one for today. Think I'm gonna make a thread for this tommorow here's the topsters.org file make your changes anons

Garbage chart, all it did was add 4 recent acclaimed albums, while filling 1/4 of it with jazz, leaving whole genres with no representation. On the positive side, at least there's only 1 rap album, instead of the sea of crap OP originally posted.

>>128115957
The /mu/core charts jazz list is missing some of the most essential must listen to jazz albums of all time. Do you expect me to not remedy such a disgusting action? In regards to the whole genres with no rep thing that old chart has bleeps and covered and I don't listen to enough metal to feel like I'm worthy to put any in the chart. If you want more fusion or some shit like that complain to /mu/ not me

>>128115706
Why isn't there more hip-hop? There's only MF DOOM and Death Grips who both have a plenty of representation on the original chart. Why not put something more recent or some artists that aren't on the original chart(I think JPEGMAFIA would be fine). F#A# is already on the 2015 one. I wouldn't put the new Ariel Pibk album on there since it's fairly recent(couple of weeks) and I haven't seen much discussion about it unlike Getting Killes. I think putting Brat on the chart wouldn't really be a bad idea. I feel like either BC,NR or Black Midi should be there

>>128116248
Brat was on it before but it got replaced with pop 2 from an anon who likes charlie 10x more then I do. As for hi pop /mu/ isn't really talking about hip hop enough to know what albums they like from what I've seen (other then MF DOOM and how black people music sucks). >I feel like either BC,NR or Black Midi should be there
Agree should have both

Ok for real now done for the day goodnight 4chan

One of the most watered-down rym/aoty users/retards chart I've seen, and it's getting worse with every new edit, it's either a wigger, or the ID is from a prison. All that's lacking now is kendrick cRap, but I'm surprised there's still no Beatles/Radiohead/Pink Floyd though.

And for all you jazz hating losers here you go

this is a Fool's Errand but if you're going to try you're going to try good luck to you!

Your bias about jazz is showing
I don't give a fuck about jazz
Hence why no single individual should be the sole chart maker
Better some schmuck than no schmuck I suppose

Just some suggestions

lets make this a reality
i don't care if its fucking dog shit
a 2020s /mu/core
if it's fucking shit someone will show up and make it better
better than nothing

>>128116003
>The /mu/core charts jazz list is missing some of the most essential must listen to jazz albums of all time. Do you expect me to not remedy such a disgusting action?
You have a fundamental misunderstanding of what /mu/core was, is, and should be. That's why your shitty list won't be taken seriously.

>>128118088
what is the fundamental understanding of what /mu/core is?

>>128111535 (OP)
/む/core

>>128118136
meme albums

>>128118136
/mu/core sucks. If we want this to really be /mu/core, it needs to have a bunch of redundant k-pop albums that take over the whole chart

you need real ears to hear /mu/core people say it sucks now, but they're just dismissing it from surface level noise, they don't actually analyze it
an anon said /mu/core would be dead because taste is bad today
people will just listen to the surface level noise and not the deeper meaning, most of /mu/core has a deeper meaning to it besides what your ear first hears, but you need to pay actual attention to hear it, something lost in our tiktok smartphone era.

Just thought of a new meme: nu/mu/core, sucks

>>128117726
100% agree with Boces

>>128118088

bump

>>128111535 (OP)
>Has the old userbase been completely replaced?
yes
once zoomers reach critical mass in a discussion forum, everyone else leaves
they're so retarded that they're not even fun to shitpost with

>>128117726
Squarepusher is definitely /mu/core.

>>128111535 (OP)
They moved on for good reasons, you should probably too.

Past a point, an infection gets bad enough where theres not much you can do, if anything.
Look into the "indie websphere" or whatever. Nearly all /mu/core has it's respect in the albums' niche or circles, so be aware of what you like and try to get involved in those scenes.
They still and will always exist...

I’ll do a zoomer approved /mu/core mixtape.
Has to be <90minutes
