Say, is there a "trolling too hard" section under "Secrets Not Posted"?

Ah, yes: judging (so hard).

An integral part of fandom since forever.

I want to get into fanmixes, but man do a lot people taste suck or heard everything a thousand times.
comradesmiler: (Default)

My own count (including WIPs)

[personal profile] comradesmiler 2014-06-16 11:39 pm (UTC)(link)
1 Florence and the machine and 2 Imagine Dragons. But then again I'm not making them for you OP.
fingalsanteater: (Default)

I was going to make this exact secret and now I don't have to. Thanks, OP.

[personal profile] fingalsanteater 2014-06-16 11:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Especially Marina and the Diamonds. I'll see fanmixes with 3 or 4 of their songs and I'm like "Jfc, OTHER ARTISTS EXIST." I've been compiling songs for a fanmix and none of them are from those artists because I'm so tired of seeing them too.

I don't pay attention to fanmixes most of the time. I only make them for challenges when I need to, and I imagine I end up using songs that are common. I just have no clue what's common.

[personal profile] ex_mek82 2014-06-16 11:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Eh, I'll take just about any performer/band on a Fanmix so long as it doesn't have current Top 40 flash-in-the-pan treacly/asinine pop shit on it (i.e. that stupid 'Green and yellow American Apparel underwear' song I hear every 3 minutes across 4 stations on my afternoon commute home).

Even then, I'd probably take the pop shit if the fanmix is intentionally tongue-in-cheek/satirical about the whole thing.

A song's popularity doesn't diminish its value, including its value as applied to a character.

It's ok for you to not want to listen to those fanmixes because they're not interesting to you, but don't judge people for putting together something that makes them happy.

rubbertea: fanart of lester nygaard from the fargo tv show (Default)

i like the idea of fanmixes in theory, but in practice most people just seem to throw a bunch of songs they like together without putting much thought in it beyond "part of the lyrics sort of applies to character x". sometimes every song in a fanmix is a different genre, and the music snob in me rears its ugly head to say "what the heck made you think putting daft punk and johnny cash in the same mix would be a good idea?".
idk, i just like it better when the genre fits the universe and/or the character. like, miles davis don draper fanmix? excellent. rap jesse pinkman fanmix? fuck yes. but florence and the machine and dean winchester? give me a break.

Feelings about fanmixes/ fanmix recs?

(Anonymous) 2014-06-16 11:50 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't judge a fanmix based on the artists or songs*. I judge a fanmix based on whether the fanmixer actually tried to choose songs that cohesively work together, with a tone that is actually reflective of the fanmixes subject matter. That being said, it doesn't have to be super serious or anything - a lot of my fave fanmixes have been humour or playful.

*Except 'My Immortal'. Sorry guys.

Especially, especially if it contains that one Imagine Dragons' song. Oh, you know the one I am talking about. Your mother knows the one I am talking about it. I have heard it used for not only so many fanmixes but for too many fanvids. Oh, so too many fanvids.

Honestly, I don't even care whether this is a troll.

I agree with you, OP.

I mean, I don't actually judge people for liking FOB or Panic! or whatever, people can like what they like. (I had a "friend" once who was super judgey about my music tastes, when I was just getting into music and literally didn't know anything other than the Top 40. They were a shitty friend.) But it gets awfully tiring when every. single. fanmix. has the same recycled songs that people heard on the radio.

GET SOME NEW MATERIAL, FANDOM. There's a brave new world of music out there on the internet, just waiting for your listening ears!

(Anonymous) 2014-06-17 12:03 am (UTC)(link)
I wish people would stop using Owl City in every fanmix.

OWL CITY SUCKS. THEY'RE SHIT, OKAY. THEIR SONGS ARE BLAND GARBAGE THAT SOUNDS LIKE THEY RECORD EXECS PUT "POP-INDIE-ROCK" INTO A BLENDER.

Also, if I never heard another "badass feminist" mix with Marina and the Diamonds, Lana Del Rey, Gwen Stefani/Britney Spears, and M.I.A. or Nicki Minjaj, I will be a happy woman.

I'm in total agreement, OP. There's plenty of stuff out there where fandom shouldn't have to rely on the same fucking songs every single fanmix.

I like fanmixes where the songs actually express what the fanmixer is trying to get across and not seeing how many angsty songs they can smash together.

(Anonymous) 2014-06-17 12:21 am (UTC)(link)
I love ALL of these bands
whoops

(Anonymous) 2014-06-17 12:36 am (UTC)(link)
God, I hate it when more than one person likes an artist or song and connects them to certain characters or shows or books. Don't they know Bubblegum Bitch is maxxed out?

I like a few of these artists, but...yeah, there's shit that's overused and overplayed, and it wouldn't kill people to broaden their horizons.

(Anonymous) 2014-06-17 12:45 am (UTC)(link)
My fanmixes (should I ever make one) would only contain old video game musics, Joe Satriani, Assemblage 23, possibly Virt, possibly The Wingless, and possibly songs from La Mulana.

Am I special snowflake enough for you, OP?

(Anonymous) 2014-06-17 12:46 am (UTC)(link)
My own opinions aside (cause the inclusion of these bands don't bug me as long as they fit), how is Bastille not on this list? I mean, if we're talking about bands that dominate fanmixes...

I don't hate it, but it is a little annoying to end up with five copies of the same song when you're downloading playlists. |D

Ah well, I'll survive. :3

[personal profile] cbrachyrhynchos 2014-06-17 12:59 am (UTC)(link)
Ohh, I judge you. Hard.

I'm about to get dinner. Hard.

And watch Deep Space Nine. Hard.

Then I might come back and check out page two. Hard.
