yeah you're totally right T.I. is the shit and really validates my white existence

music like that ^ above is made by individuals in their bedrooms and it's all in fun and jest and casual head-nodding to previous tradition

you're basically taking it more seriously than the pretentious hipsters that earn a living reviewing it

funny how inane silly cunts like you will dance to 'rave' and throwback '80s' dance stuff for the laughs in clubs

but then nostalgia-trips for shoegaze and early indie = the death of all that is properly man

it's probably best you avoid music and keep it marginalized as an accessory for picking up jersey shore cast members

It's amazing how you can figure out someones musical tastes from one poorly written sentence. I am stunned.

However, you're wrong sir. TI is horrendous, as is all mainstream rappers (exception of Kid Cudi)
Raves are in fact fun for laughs and with friends (you should get some, might help you out in life.)

You are a pretentious hipster who is taking it seriously, need i say more.

I can get a cracked version of FL studio and make the same shit you're listening to, and you would fucking praise it.

Real music is being overshadowed by this shitty electronic crap and that shit rap and pop that you think i worship.

that's kinda part of the DIY 'aesthetic'. you're either being obtuse or missing the point by a country mile.

bedroom production in diy-indie, the 'lo-fi' umbrella and bedroom electronica is all part of a 'movement'

creatively and industrially.

if you don't 'get' it then it's just lost on you and you never will. but it's not particularly profound.

I wouldn't want to get it, it sounds like shit.

I understand that they are doing it themselves in their bedrooms, that doesn't mean i have to like it. You seem to bash everyone Else's music choices, but you act like yours were sent here from god himself. When in reality, maybe a hand full of people on this forum even remotely like what you post.

im not saying my recommendations are gospel, not at all. i post what i want to share.

mainly because - i guess in part you are right - i don't think people would hear of it. exposure, more than anything.

'lo-fi' sounding like 'shit' is subjective, really. many people think that polished, over-produced and flattened/post-produced albums sound like 'shit'. some people enjoy some dissonance and disharmony in their music - some dynamism and genuine interaction and tangibility with the audience. polished studio gems are very... distant and hard to properly emotionally engage with. not sure if you get my point. but the division exists, anyway.

and that's not related to some 'elitist underground' sentiment, either. anyone can find this stuff if they want. it's not some exclusive club. i enjoy sharing relatively low-key stuff to the music aficionados here, just as i enjoy doing it for my friends in real-life. it's a nice gesture, you can't wrap it any other way. if people don't like it - i don't care. no loss, really.

Yeah I get what you are doing, a lot of these guys do go by word of mouth.
I shouldn't be discouraging you from posting it, it just seems like that's all the stuff you do post, and we all know that stuff isn't the only thing you listen to.

To be completely honest i started off trolling, now it's a decent discussion so oh well.

it was a very poor troll because my two consecutive posts linked two entirely different genres of music

and neither are particularly 'hip' or 'cool'. at least not where im from. and london is usually a pretty good benchmark in the hipster-scale.

I haven't had my morning coffee yet, so my artistic curve of trolling is at a lowpoint.

I get what you are saying though, properly produced music is pure and clean, but stuff created in a basement somewhere has impurities in it's sound quality, which gives it either a very homey feeling, or a feeling of poor quality. It's hard to distinguish from either.

to be honest one of my favourite song-writers/artists of all time is a guy called John Darnielle, or The Mountain Goats as his creative name

all of his early material was recorded on very simple boomboxes, straight to cassette-tape. it just creates this amazing, intimate and more personally 'emotive' tone to the entire thing. when it comes to a songwriter singing about certain subjects, i prefer the lo-fi aesthetic far more. john mayer and multi-million dollar produced stadium-anthems... can go swivel. this john darnielle guy used to sing his guts out at a piece of equipment anybody could pick up from a yard-sale; and it was better fucking music. all the writers, producers and creative whizz-kids in the industry couldn't alter the original, raw and 'of the moment' recordings to better them. lemme find you an example. im pretty sure this is more of a 'fair' representation, anyway, because you cant really construe or lump this style of music in with the all-so-trendy 'throwback' hipster stuff (although my original recommendation for that last artist REALLY does stand, it is fucking ace):

now that is real singer-songwriting, in my opinion. you can even hear the current shooting though the high-volume tube amps; the white noise and the natural distortion. one take, one recording, no vocal-layers or finely-honed 'parts'. it is what it is. that's lo-fi to me, and i think it has a very valid place in music.

Thoughts on Chris Clark? I heard Herzog a while back on Warp20 and can't get enough of it. Does the rest of his stuff sound similar? a faint touch of Philip Glass to it? (Now that I think of it, a lot of the IDM I love is the stuff seemingly inspired by Glass)

I'm surprised too I was like 'wtf why have I never listened to any of this before!?'. And tbh, I think the older 90s/early00s IDM is the best stuff for my style. I still have and listen to those old Artificial Intelligence compilations

i think it's the high-watermark for all electronic music, to be honest

and the finest 'modern' stuff being released, i.e. planet mu / rephlex records / n5md. tries its' best to imitate that golden era

aphex twin's drukqs was the point where the magnificent wave broke and began to recede back out to sea

LOVE this.

saw them live a few weeks back. Fantastic music but the band members were pricks.
They were arguing with the club owner about putting a sheet up for their visuals, except the sheet was near a bunch of outlets and other stuff that could spark.

ah bummer, gotta hate that

I don't think I would see them live given the chance - i dont think the music really suits it. I saw tiesto live and that was kind of pushing my limit as far as visual/audio/experience goes.

The live show was actually really good though. They're performers through and through.
