what the fuck does that mean

Let's try some name-association: First word: Björk
>>61554162
That the mentioning of certain facts is arbitrary and doesn't really matter anyway
>>61554170
Pop artist who got her ideas from classical music.

>it doesn't matter that an artform has produced nothing of worth
That's not what I was saying. I'd say the fact that a lot of people enjoy that style of music is worth quite a lot. I don't like it (maybe except talking heads and a few others) but then again, I'm not forced to listen to it so I move on with my life and listen to the stuff I genuinely enjoy.

Studio technology was done for decades before popular music discovered it.
Programmed beats
the beatles were the first artists to have tracks that bled into each other on an album, correct?
>>61554228
Ostinatos have been around for centuries.
>>61554219
Is this bait?
>>61554237
And symphonies/similar programmatic works that had movements that blend together have existed since the 19th century.
>>61554240
Because it proves you wrong? No, it's a fact.
>>61554219
Anything recorded in a studio is popular music you nit
>>61554237
That was pet sounds you pleb
>>61554256
Oh I guess the St Matthew Passion is popular music then.
>>61554265
Well, it entirely depends on what you define as popular. Personally, I'd say yes not in the sense that most people listen to it on a regular basis, rather in the sense that everybody has heard of it and most people have listened to pieces from it at some point
>>61554265
Bach is pretty popular so yeah
>>61554276
>rather in the sense that everybody has heard of it and most people have listened to pieces from it at some point
Name a part of the St Matthew Passion you have heard.
Protip: you can't.
>>61554278
>he doesn't know what popular music is
embarrassing.

Automatic Double Tracking
CHEW YOUR HAVISFACTION
>>61554237
I don't know if that's true but I'm having a hard time believing it.
>>61554238
Not the same thing.
>>61554095
Reverb you fucking idiots
Playing with distortion
>>61554324
Yes they are.
A programmed beat is just a musical unit that is repeated over the duration of a track.
AKA the definition of an ostinato.
>>61554336
Done in the 50's you fucking idiot.
>>61554337
Noise music was done in the 1910's by the Futurists.

With instruments they created themselves, not modified already existing instruments.

>not modified already existing instruments.
Instruments were continually modified by composers in multitudes of ways, and if they weren't then they had a new instrument commissioned a la Wagner.
>>61554392
Do you know what a fucking theme and variations is, kid?
>>61554095
I'm having a hard time figuring out what you define as popular music.
>>61554406
Rock, Pop, Hip Hop, etc.
The things that this board exclusively discusses.
(/classical/ and /jazz/ and similar generals are not part of /mu/)
Dank beats. Hip hop invented those
Shredding

Stravinsky - The Augurs of Spring
>>61554424
Bartok and Shostakovich string quartets
>>61554351
Pop music existed in the '50s, yeah
The Futurists used purpose-built noisemakers, and didn't distort the amplified/pre-recorded signals from their instruments.
I know this is a shitty bait thread made by a high schooler but come on senpai this is just weak
>>61554405
And what the fuck do these two have in common?
>>61554431
That's not even fucking close to shredding and I am offended you would even try to justify your shitty argument with it.

Did you just ignore my points disproving both of those?

Shredding was first done by guitarists such as Jimmy Page and Ritchie Blackmore you dipshit. It's impossible to shred on a violin or cello.

I posted before you posted those. I'll cede Stockhausen, but your response to the Futurism thing doesn't disprove anything, or even have anything to do with distortion.

there have been no innovations in popular music hence popular music has no identifiable qualities
except obviously it does, so there are innovations in popular music
Didn't Merzbow have some car he sold as the 'Merzcar' or something that constantly played a one of a kind album? And like that was the physical medium for that album
>>61554379

If you consider jazz as popular music, it introduced a shitton of innovations in instrumental playing. The trumpet for example, while in classical music it's only used for making the same boring fanfare noises, it was completely reinvented on jazz.

Are you autistic? It is entry level classical music.
classical is for nerds lol

Allais did it in 1897, Funeral March for the Obsequies of a Deaf Man. Pretty much the same thing.
