Can you make good music without knowing what you're doing?
Like if you don't know chords or notes or scales, is it possible to play things by ear and make something sound good?
Could it be a benefit?

Yes. Math doesn't make music sound good on it's own.
>>
It's possible to perform a sequence of completely random movements in order to make a set of sounds that when combined form music
>>
yes, but i'd take ages to do.
>Extended note from 2010. The Beatles were not a terribly interesting band, but their fans were and still are an interesting phenomenon. I can only name religious fundamentalists as annoying (and as threatening) as Beatles fans, and as persevering in sabotaging anyone who dares express an alternate opinion of their faith. They have turned me into some kind of Internet celebrity not because of the 6,000 bios that i have written, not because of the 800-page book that i published, not because of the 30 years of cultural events that i organized, but simply because i downplayed the artistic merits of the Beatles, an action that they consider as disgraceful as the 2001 terrorist attacks.

I agree that the Beatles are significantly overrated, but damn... I don't think they're as mediocre as Scaruffi claims.

Why hasn't Doom spawned more copycats in terms of style? He's pretty much on the mount rushmore of indie rap but no one else even attempts his style. Why aren't there more people trying to rap like him? Even his production has become pretty influential but his rapping is kind of off in its own bubble.

Guess he's not good enough as you think he is.
That or people just don't know about him.

Earl.

To say that no one imitates him is a pretty broad exaggeration. I mean, Earl Sweatshirt is one of the more popular rappers out right now and the Doom influence in his music is extremely obvious.

/mu/, the world is coming to an end.
An ethereal being approaches you, and tells you that any album of your choice will be played from the heavens beforehand.
What do you pick, /mu/? What should be the last album that everyone on the planet hears before they die?

This movie sugarcoats Toronto music way too much. It likes to pretend it's a hipster's dream with all these experimental rock acts, but totally leaves out that realistically 80% of these bands would have been post-grunge cock rock.
Are you seriously telling me we wouldn't see ANY bands like
>Nickelback
>Three Days Grace
>Our Lady Peace
>Thousand Foot Krutch
>Theory of a Dead Man
>USO
>Finger 11
>My Darkest Days
>Barenaked Ladies
>Protest the Hero
You mean to tell me that there isn't a single hard rock band begging for Ramona or Knives to show their tits while they drink Natty Ice on stage? Yeah fucking right. Fuck you Canada.

So I really enjoy listening to ambient music erring on the electronic side of things as well as field recordings because they're super relaxing and I like being lost in the soundscapes.
Although I don't pay too much attention to this kind of thing, Fantano's recent review of Narkopop got me thinking: what defines ambient music as being good or bad in your mind?
Is it really a matter of taste, or are there specific traits that define an ambient album as being "good".
Also rec good ambient music because I'm never not going to want more albums to listen to.

If you enjoy it, it's good. If you don't enjoy it, it's bad.

>>72485154
i think theres two kinds of ambient. ones not necessarily good or better than the other.
>backpambient
chill, slow moving, pretty, and/or relaxing music. stuff for indie rock and pop music fans to chill out to and not seriously engage with in an intellectual or spiritual capacity.
>ambient
music that examines the effects of drones and repeting tones on the human psyche. traditional drone musics have historically induced trance or connect with god or higher powers in serious ways.
>>
>>72485302
This is a pretty good start. I would add that "good ambient" is written and recorded so that it can be just as engaging as it is ignorable, like Brian Eno once said. So the good stuff I find is just as layered and well-composed as any other genre of music. The "bad" ambient I've heard is simply ignorable and not engaging--for instance, it is more concerned with slow loops and reverb than finding interesting timbres, building on repetitions, and using effective drones.

Daily reminder that rock is the most fedora genre, because if there was no rock, metal and prog wouldn't exist.

>>72485014
basically music in general is fedora as fuck besides pop. every person who takes time to listen and think about music thinks they are superior for it and they are. people who just listen to whatevers on or like to listen at parties and not think at all about it are the least fedora genres.
