Where do people get new music that doesn't suck these days?

try asking /mu/

Bandcamp, you fuck. And ask /mu/ next time. Install Gentoo or gtfo.

It seems like everything coming out is electronic noise, "ironic" rock/metal or nig beats

I know the struggle man. As all music started to sound the same it was harder and harder to find something that stood out. So as I went on my tastes got more and more avant-garde. But soon even the most obscure sounds of static-reverb high tones couldn't do it for me and the chase for the white rabbit brought me deeper and deeper. I started bringing a zoom recorder with me everywhere. I would play back and entire days worth of audio in 3 minutes with modulating reverb just to get my fix. I waited on every sound like it was an opportunity I started searching for noises no one had ever heard before. But still i felt I had to go deeper, the old thrills grew tedious and my craving for the next sound became insatiable.

Anyway I went full circle and now i just listen to pop music. Beyonce's new album is pretty good.

>>55535965
go back in time instead of listening to the latest

Underrated

>>55535965
Check other artists out of the genres you like? Ask ... f-friends?

I never ever actively looked for music and got about 30k songs now; and about 10k more I'd like to download but can't be assed with tag editing.

>>55535965
Listen to Soft Pop and never be bored of music ever again.

Mainstream music seem to have gone up in quality since around 2012.

good taste

I used to worry about what music to listen to, but then I went full classical and have never looked back. Hundreds of years of history of western music, and it still only keeps improving as modern performances keep improving in skill and sound quality over older ones.

The only problem (for some) may be the length of the pieces themselves--it may seem boring until you have listened to enough classical to know what you like. Also, understanding some basic music theory can really help when getting into classical.

>>55535965
Look the ${CURRENT_YEAR} charts on rateyourmusic or try random stuff on Bandcamp.

Somehow, Beethoven managed to revolutionize the sound of music in his age without resorting to the musical equivalent of smearing shit on a canvas and calling it a painting.

>New World Symphony
I recently had an opportunity to experience a symphonic orchestra performing this. It was a wonderful experience.

I don't listen to music anymore besides when I'm lifting. Instead I just listen to podcasts or have ear plugs in. I have a couple private tracker accounts for music though.

Maybe you're too retarded to think that that's bad music. This is what's wrong with the new generation (millenials, and the next gen). There is no limit between good and bad music.
Yeah, enjoy your "music" there.
You contemporary garbage retards.

If music is ever posted on 4chan and it sounds good I'll listen to it and if I like it enough I'll listen to more of it

I also look at whosampled to see what the bands I like sampled and broaden my horizons a bit

Just listen to whatever you like, anon

>>55543627
>a professional clarinetist

Uhh,

>>55543650
I'm not a milenial :) in fact, I study music since 9 years old and I have a master's degree in music.

>>55543670
did you ever went to some music university or conservatory? any professional musician can play music from any century and if you don't know how to play extended techniques you're just out of the field

>>55535965
Pick generic music genre you like
Pick generic song you like from that genre
Search on youtube and start going through the reccomandations

>>55543689
I'm not talking about techniques, I'm talking about THE RIGHT NOTES.

>>55541513
I'd hope the radio station isn't playing noise

>I study music since 9 years old
Well, you produce a very bad music
>did you ever went to some music university or conservatory
Nope, at least I ain't hearing that nonsense

>>55543740
what's the right tone? are you talking about a tempered tonal perspective? depending on the culture, the "right' tones changes a lot.

with technology(recording, sound manipulation, spectral analysis, psychoacoustics, synthesis) we learned a lot about the possibilities of instruments and tonal music is pretty limited.

for example, in tonal music the shortest interval between tones are demi-tones(100 cents). between 100 cents humans can hear a lot of different tones.

>>55543787
you're just ignorant. peace and take care of yourself

>>55543813
>ignorant
at least I don't like music that I don't like.
You're just pushing me to like music that I don't like, well good by sir

>>55543835
I'm not pushing at all. I just can't stand the bullshit of comparing serious contemporary music to some kind of "whatever" visual crap art.

normally if you don't know what's going on, you think it's bad and did without knowledge and elaborated techniques.

>>55543880
cool
> peace and take care of yourself

nice,
>you think it's bad and did without knowledge and elaborated techniques
Music is subjective, you can't be seriously blowing up smoke dude. Good luck with "con""temporary" music.

>>55543918
>>55543880
Also,
con meaning,
Temporary meaning,
All those knowledge without learning what's con temporary art.
can't deceive me with your garbage art

>>55535965
You have to look to find good, new music. There is plenty of it. The popular is, obviously, shit.

I do that too. Looking up original records that were sampled helped me discover so much greater music that wasn't very popular when it came out.

Are these baseless questions?
