You being the sole picked upon party here is honestly fake news. I think I've been pretty reasonable in the last few pages, but got lumped in with your brain damage quip anyway. All you really have to do is acknowledge that the sounds are different etc. (or just disengage for real), but like with the Chernobyl argument it's now a matter of pride for you.

I wouldn't take Dilbert's threat lightly. He may not show up on your doorstep to beat you up like Jay, but he will certainly be flatulent company.
I find it curious you would ask me to 'disengage' or admit some fault when in doing so you're covering for a person who has in his many many years in this place never done either of these things. He will rage, wildly insult, make overly dramatic assertions and in the best case just not post again if called on BS, or zoom in and drive on the one perceived sticking point he can push. I don't care to play nice with others who are mostly incapable of that, and your interjections here to back him up won't help much. All it's telling me is that it's either enabled behaviour or he's really like some meme frog who can't help himself who others are 'supposed' to accomodate.

I haven't engaged his arguments in over 2 pages and opted to humour myself and hopefully others with some obvious jokes instead. On the other hand he'll keep writing essays on electro production littered with overt insults and insist that I'm 'sad' and 'look silly'. He can't help but try and drag the discussion back to areas of his personal interest to hammer the argument - not to just simply make a point, but predictably because he takes tremendous glee in shaming others or to in his mind make someone else look like a fool, an idiot, etc. That's all it really is.

'But you could've just said nicely you didn't like it! You'll argue again. See what happens here:

I'm sure I don't get it because I've always sat through the songs posted and am somehow not in the proper mindset to listen to them. I don't doubt there's things going on I am unaware of and not appreciating, but it always seems to me I wait for it the song to "start" all the way through the end.
imagine not being familiar with an electronic track in 2020. ‘where’s the chorus? lol this isn’t a song!’

do you have a KISS tattoo or something?

music based on loops and repetition/permutation has been mainstream since the 1980s. ffs. ‘when does the song start’. 

the criticism you guys come up with is honestly just funny. you’re like kids who have to put their hands over their ears when they hear expletives on the radio because they were raised amish or something. WoAH this one is just WeIrD NoIseS!
Such a measured calm demeanor, such openness to discussion, so much tact. Now I know most of you don't have professions that require a lot of people interaction, probably for obvious reasons, but if anyone were to talk to others in daily life as uzique routinely writes you'd be involved in shouting matches or fistfights day in day out.

The very reason I was harsh from the getgo was precisely to put a finger on this behaviour as well - how would he react if someone else were as dismissive and insulting to him as he is to others? Well here's an answer. The man is completely oblivious to his own severe shortcomings and will only receive it as a challenge to double down, even worse than usual.
First, I don't care if you disengage or not. I'm just pointing out the ridiculousness of going "oh, I don't really care about this argument" and then circling back to it time and time again. And no, you haven't stopped engaging with him. I'm sorry but posting "dank memes" in hopes of getting the last word still counts …

Second, uzique doesn't need to be covered for. That's not what I'm doing here. I'm not his white knight. I've butted heads with him in the past over things I didn't really think needed argument over. I'm making my own observations here on what's going down between you two, not uzique and desertfurry, and I don't think any of them had a palpable impact on duration. So don't go passing the blame to me.

In the end I'd like to underline I'm not at all affected by any of this and do find some entertainment in these sorts of exchanges during a dreary pandemic winter. 'But u r still posting tho so u must care!!' - truly, no.
(But really yes). And no shit both of you went at it out of boredom.

Ps: I still think the music is shit, fite me nerd
I literally don't care. It's just your arguments why that don't make sense to me.

How the fuck did I get dragged into this shit again? I said that particular music was very samey and uninteresting to me as a result, and because I foresaw the potential defensiveness, put in the part about acknowledging there's things I don't know about the style. I got some weird off-mark reply about hair metal, then. I didn't dismiss the genre out of hand. I've liked some things of that sort that have been posted before; there's probably karmas for it.

i love instrumental music. i listen to lots of bands, instrumentalists, and singers.

there is just nothing to recommend about that particular wave of MTV emo music. there was a generation of emo music before it, in the 1990s, which maybe has a few redeeming elements, and a few good bands. there was a hardcore scene in d.c. and boston that would wipe the floor with emo.

why would a grown man want to listen to some men in drummer-boy soldier outfits wailing about 'not being okay'? it's asinine.

do you have a panic at the disco tattoo? it's stuff for 14 year old girls.

Yeh it gets the blood pumping pretty good honestly. It's some experimental folk band that uses actual bones, primitive drums & horns to make music. Texts are proto germanic, old norse etc. It's cool, I'm sure they'd make a good background soundtrack to a TV show or game series.

That said the actual scene is cringe if you ask me. The crowd at these sort of things is like this mishmash of (death)metal and folk enthusiasts who probably write fantasy fanfic on tumblr or something. That, and Breivik types.

this is well-produced dark music. your neo-folk old norse bone-rattling stuff is rubbish. it sounds like rubbish.

Pls we already agreed in the past that johann johannsson was very good. I'd pick him or maybe some of alexandre desplat's work if it's about moody dark music.

These folk guys are fine in the context of what they're trying to do. If the idea is to give a soundtrack inspired by Europe 5000 BCE I reckon they're not doing a bad job.

old norse was 600 AD not the last ice age. cool that they produce music 'using actual bones'. you must be very new to sound design. people sample and field record things all the time. it's perfectly quaint how you're impressed by these things. WoaH robert glasper incorporates BEAT-MAKING techniques! these people use OLD NORSE TEXTS!!!!

i don't know how you can listen to such poorly produced rubbish. do you have good headphones or even half-decent speakers or what? that track you linked sounds like amateurish, poorly mixed, barely mastered rubbish. it's aural mud.

A/B that song with the Raime or Haxan Cloak track. if you can't tell the difference in production standards and quality then you are out of your fucking little bird-brained head. cheeep cheeep cheeep

Fascination with Norse and Viking iconography is a big red flag. That stuff is weirdly more wrapped up with modern Nazism than literal Nazism. If some German started to talk to me with the accomplishments of the Wehrmacht on the Eastern Front I am going to really dig talking to them about that stuff. If some guy from NJ showed up to the PTA meeting with a viking beard and rune tattoos I am going to assume he is into that stuff for other reasons than fascination with the Kievan Rus.

yeah the neo-folk scene is basically 60% neo-nazis. lots of bands flirt with nazi iconography, like the SS runes, etc. nobody calls them out on it. it's like LARPer sub-warhammer fascist-flirting nonce-sense.

neo-folk is a genre that flirts with fascist and nazi imagery a lot.

just like how in lots of fantasy lit you get edgelord fascists. donald trump as the warhammer emperor. there's a big crossover. all these people are basically roleplaying when they make their cringe as fuck 'celtic' music or 'old norse epics' or whatever. it's always tied into infantile reactionary fantasies about 'ein volk' or 'the motherland' or something.

^ this is true. Among the fanbase there's an enormous draw to people who fetishize 'authentic' histories which usually quite easily blends in with ethnonationalism.

e.g.



coincidentally also produced and mixed/mastered like absolute pure shit. i guess not many talented producers or mastering engineers work with the neo-folk scene. all their recorded music sounds like hot garbage.
