I wonder who would get riled up if I said "slow jam R & B tracks" suck ass too.

people get so worked over opinion. get a fucking grip.

so I find autechre to be dull background music. so what?

personal opinion.

atsonicpark 08.11.2010 11:21 AM

I don't give a shit about your opinion, you're just close minded in general.

Did you ever read your own posts or threads? 90% are all about how much you despise this forum or certain people who post on here. Which leaves the other 10% for how much you hate someone in real life. Who's sad? MIAOW!

The difference is that slow jam R&B is a very limited corpus, as opposed to a blanket prejudice which seemingly includes the majority of non-guitar-based rock music since about 1981. No-one really gets annoyed, you're just missing out on some ROCKING SKRONK.

Rob, how can you not like this song?

skronk is so delicious. I will start a skronk thread


skrchhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh *crash crash crash* (repeat 355 times, YOU HAVE A HIT SKRONKY SONG!)


don't get me wrong. i love noise music. but dissing a whole genre like this is totally stupid. totally stupid. because it shows your total lack of knowledge of the actual genre (no, not all techno is 4/4 four to the floor beats, sorry - and actually, most of the electronic music discussed here avoids those rhythms 99% of the time), because "bleeps" are only present in a part of electronic music, and especially because it shows you can't understand some people might like this as much as you love skronk - and some people may like both, and more. why the fuck should it be forbidden to talk about techno on a Sonic Youth board? Why the fuck? It's a fucking board? If you don't like a thread about a techno artist, why don't you just ignore it? It's not like if it was a newspaper with limited space and techno music took rock music's space? I fail to see how a few people talking about techno music could put a board to shit.

Sorry Rob, I like you, but that was probably the most ridiculous message I've ever read on any message board (and I've read a whole lot of "electronic music is inferior", "electronic music is cold and inhuman", "hip hop music is shit", etc on french boards), and indeed really, really close minded. And definitely something I didn't think I'd ever read on here, since, actually, I always thought what made this board special is specifically the fact that you can talk about seemingly any style of music.

Threads on here can be boring, dramatic, funny, disgusting, intense, and stoopid. Threads are born and then they die. Just like in real life.

SYRFox 08.11.2010 12:23 PM

Also, Rob, you must have pretty mad background songs if you consider this as background music: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nwtVJ6OFlR8
Or maybe you just don't know what the fuck you're talking about.

!@#$%! 08.11.2010 12:28 PM

so this has gone from being porky vs. the board to being robinstigator vs. fans of techno.

 

it's aliiiiiiiiive!

!@#$%! 08.11.2010 12:36 PM

ha ha, anyway...

porky:

imagine this "demotivation" style poster:


 

THE SKY
falling continuously on the internet since 1993

--

yes, things fall apart and will never stop doing that.

funny thing, you've managed to stir some controversy & get more people to post. good strategy! i'd rep you if i could, but it appears i'm out of ammunition.

some of the things you say i think are right, but i don't get your hate for satana-- you may not like how she demands attention (who here doesn't, in one way or another, for their own reasons), but she hasn't done you any harm, has she? i like the brat for her shitkicking attitude, that's why i ask.

and amerikangod, ok, he says the same things over and over, and his humor might not be agreeable to all, but even in his repetitive gimmick he can be funny because of his rhethorical skills. and yes, flotters tends to repeat things that make you impatient-- but if people are not harming you, why not skip ahead and let them live?

then again, people took offense at your thread and that got them posting-- good job! 100+ posts less than 24 hours? that hasn't happened here in ages.

nicfit 08.11.2010 12:42 PM

OSLO!

SYRFox 08.11.2010 12:46 PM

Rob, you're acting just like the "shit-smeared ayatollah of Iran", except that it's in a smaller scale, that you don't rule a country and ain't got any power on here. Wishing to ban a whole culture on the basis that you don't like it.

loubarret 08.11.2010 12:51 PM

I like this forum for all the drama there is on it.

Alright, but that does not mean everyone should enjoy every musical genre, or does it?

Techno, I think it sucks, and it's not music designed to be listened to, but to make people dance, so they can focus on what happens on the dance floor without being distracted by the music. (Autechre doesn't fit in the category imo)

I didn't say everyone should enjoy every musical genre. But to diss up a whole genre (in that case, any music created with electronic instruments!), say your favorite music is superior, and saying a board has gone to shit because some people talk about music you don't like is plain ridiculous and sheer stupidity.

I totally disagree with your point of view on techno music - I can listen to 4 to the floor EQ'd techno without dancing to it -, but at least you admit it's subjective and don't pretend everyone should stop talking about techno because of this.
