Music thread

[philstar22]

Talk about music. Anything about music. What are you currently listening to? What music to you really love or really hate? Is there a song stuck in your head that you can't forget? Is there a song you are really sick of?

Whatever you want to talk about with music.

If I ever win big at the scratchcards, the only thing I particularly want to buy is an alto clarinet.

What anime is your icon? I can't place it!

I have been listening to A LOT of 60's music recently, especially the Beatles and the Who and garage bands.

Been listening to a bunch of opera recently. Really loving Richard Strauss, Rosenkavalier is fucking amazing. It's really cool to get a sense for what I do and don't like.

I don’t get the viola hate on the two set violin channel tbh

Re: Music thread

[(Anonymous)]

The viola is my favourite instrument, I am appalled!

I don't like Shania Twain (excluding "You're still the one"), Beyoncé, Cardi B., M.I.A., or Nicki Minaj.

Bless your heart

Re: Music thread

me neither.

Re: Music thread

[(Anonymous)]

Agreed. I especially don't get the Beyonce love. She's standard pop, none of her songs are musically or lyrically interesting. I find her music dull at best.

Re: Music thread

I find some of Shania Twain's old stuff catchy, but I don't think I've ever chosen to play her music of my own volition. I had a friend in high school who really liked her and would play her stuff, and I definitely wouldn't mind if a couple of her big hits came on at a party. But that's about it.

When it comes to Beyonce, I kind of like Crazy In Love I guess, as a party track or maybe to work out to? And Sorry isn't really my thing, but the part towards the end where there's a tone shift and it gets kind of sad and creepy sounding is really good IMO. Plus the music video is really good.

I actively dislike Cardi B. and Nicki Minaj, and I know nothing about M.I.A.

I'm glad they're happier now, but wow do I not really like the new music by Marina + Lana Del Rey.

I miss the old Americana Gloom of LDR and the synth-scared pop of MATD.

Re: Music thread

That Sublime cover was awesome though

Re: Music thread

[morieris]

Also I wish Janelle Monae was still in the Archandroid era. Violet Stars is still my favorite song of hers.

Re: Music thread

i love the song Sir Greendown!

Re: Music thread

[philstar22]

For some reason, I've been listening to a lot of Nordic and Viking music. Wadruna, Aurora, Hedningarna, Garmarna, and a few others.

Love~!

It's weird. There's a whole lot of music i really like (Alice Cooper, Styx, Rush, Jethro Tull, Fleetwood Mac, Heart, Eagles, CCR, etc...) But I rarely, if ever, listen. Music is great but sometimes it's just so much *noise*, and I can't deal.

My daughter sometimes plays me something, or like someone here rec'd a vid and I watched and enjoyed (that new Taylor Swift song), but in general...I just don't listen to music hardly ever.

Squeenix just put a ton of Final Fantasy soundtracks up onto Spotify, and I've been going bananas making mood playlists out of my favorite tracks from each of them.

As I'm listening through them again, I'm realizing that I talk a little bit of shit on Uematsu for leaning too hard on certain musical motifs, but I have to respect that he's made this many really strong tracks over this many years. He does really well in utilizing the musical software of the system, and he makes a lot of really memorable individual songs. I do still think his overall sound suffers. He's not as good at making an overall picture with his music like some of his contemporaries (Yoko Shimomura comes to mind), but I really respect that he's made these tunes that really endure.

I actually really love new age. :( I get a lot of crap for it, but so much of it is so nice! I really love the focus on melody and the "softness" of it; even when I'm not actively relaxing or something I like to listen to it just because it activates my imagination so well. It's so easy to imagine soft/emotional/wonderous/fantastical sorts of scenes, which are my favorites. And there's so much variety! Idk, I think it gets a bad rap as a genre because everyone just associates it with either "spa" drones or Enya (who I also love, but I understand not enjoying her).

I really wish more musicals would release their filmed recordings post closing date, like it's the only way a lot of people will ever see them. I don't see any downside to this for the people making the musicals either. Disney did it for Newsis, and it got a lot more people interested in both the original movie, and the show. Buying the cast recordings is not the same since you don't get to see/hear a good portion of the storytelling, and even catching a show on tour can be really hard.

The Classic station of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (writing the name in full because of the other ABC) has a Classic 100 survey every other year or so, covering different top 100s - piano pieces, bits from operas, chamber music, Baroque music, a bunch of things. This year was composers, and most of the winners were composers I like - even a lot of composers I love! I am still sad, though, that Joe Hisaishi didn't make the cut.
Let me be clear - I'm not surprised he didn't: modern composers are at a disadvantage in this sort of thing, film composers don't get a lot of name recognition unless they're *huge* names like John Williams (who came in at #15) or Hans Zimmer (#59), and he's a non-Western composer too.
I just want more people to hear his work, because I think it's amazing <3

(The whole list, if you're curious, is available here:
https://www.abc.net.au/classic/classic100/archive/search/?year=2019-composers )

Also Fanny Mendelssohn was #83 and Felix Mendelssohn was #12 and I think they should be the other way around >:(

Still listening to Die Ärzte as usual. Also Farin Urlaub Racing Team. Now and then other German rock. Occasionally the Beatles or 80s music.

I almost never listen to the radio. I don't mean there's nothing good on it. I'm sure there is. I just hardly ever do it. That means I don't usually get sick of songs, though I could live without hearing "Shape of You" again.
