Underrated.

would u eat a hotdog right now if i gav u one

there is a lot of experimental stuff but a lot of it is frick

last year's Liturgy

who cares

my albums pretty groundbreaking and original

Death Grips
The Knife - Shaking the Habitual
The Avalanches - Wildflower
Frank Ocean - Blonde
TPaB
Flying Lotus


All these listed above are popular releases that either transport their respective genres to new dimensional heights, or have enough uniqueness that time hasn't allowed it's influence to sector into new genres yet.

I'd say all of oneohtrix point never's albums from the 2010's have gotten progressively more boundary pushing, with GoD being incredibly unique and distinctive.

>>69284915
Death Grips is a great example of boundary pushing, I just don't know how influential they are/will be. It's been about 4 years since Exmilitary and not many people are hopping on this noise rap thing. It's like clipping and that's it.

>>69285056
i make good noise rap and nobody pays attention to me because zach hill isnt in my band

you can't be serious if you think hip hop peaked in previous decades, call me a memester or pleb but you can't deny that death grips or lil ugly mane aren't pushing the boundaries of the genre

i was pretty groundbreaking

>>69284971
yeah even meme ferraro is making interesting albums conceptually

>>69284941
Lmaoing at your life rn

Black Messiah by D'Angelo. His groove is groundbreaking in its own respect.

St vincent in general is pretty unique.

Ive still yet to hear anything that resembles it. Short of loose stuff she got inspiration from (kate bush).

>>69285032
I'm taking the bait. name me one album that sounds similar to Shaking the Habitual, Wildflower or Blonde? Ya can't

>>69285056
El-P
Lil Ugly Mane
Danny Brown

All at least a bit influenced by Grips. I'd say more so than Clipping. Clipping doesn't have the abrasiveness that Death Grips has, and they definitely don't try to. Also A lot of independent noise-rappers take influence from Death Grips.

>>69285160

>>69285348
>Funcrusher Plus
That is some pleb shit you neandrathal

Go listen to The Cold Vein, That's much much better than that Funcrusher bullshit

are examples of something pushing the genres they are in further, into weirder territory.

>>69285470
go listen to high water then come back and we can talk.

The last truly original album made was Drums Not Dead by Liars in 2005 or 2006.

It's a shame that everything they have done since was trash. They seemed to have so much potential at the time.

>>69285171

100% agree with both of these.

>>69285488
Also Aphex's ep last year?

>>69285423
Blonde is R&B that dabbles in various other genres including Ambient. It's closer to somebody like Marvin Gaye or Terry Callier, but produced by Eno. Yet you compare him to James Blake and King Ginger Krule.

What a damn shame this board can be

>>69285552
meh that felt more like classic aphex to me.

syro seemed like him taking all the elements of dumb stupid edm and turning them into the glorious fucked up perfect mess of an album

>>69285488
how is syro groundbreaking in any way? it's basically a retrospective album

god you guys are fucking delusional

>>69285569
James Blake is an r&b singer that have dabbled with ambient and many others. he's literally worked with eno in his second album. are you retarded?

When does Royksopp use acoustic drum timbres and extensive ambient interludes? or 10 minute drum loops than build on the same repetition? C'mon dude

By the Way, I didn't say KK doesn't sample, he just can't touch the Avalanches. KK has never put out anything nearly as ambitious as Wildflower

Their music is completely different. James seems to have nitched his role in alt. R&B. Blonde is somewhat of a singer-songwriter album that really goes in and out of different genres but stays based in old school R&B.

any of you elitists want to let me know if my work is groundbreaking, or at least on its way?

https://kylelandon.bandcamp.com/track/fall-leaves-you-behind

be rough

>>69284915
Blonde wasn't groundbreaking at all. It was a good album and nothing more.

>>69285761
James is also a singer-songwriter. Hell, he even uses many of the same literary devices Ocean does. His albums also merge different styles: dubstep, soul, folk, the voice sampling inherited from Burial...His latest album is basically a bunch of lieder set to modern beats. Blonde isn't innovative at all. It's also no coincidence that Ocean and Blake have collabed, they're operating on a similar spectrum

>>69285171
How do you think El-P has been influenced by Death Grips? His last album came out the year after ex-military, giving the influence a small window, and I don't see any grips influence on any of the RTJ stuff

>>69285056
>>69285171
Clipping kinda set noise rap back IMO.

The concept of "industrial+rap" (remember, we had noise rap decades before Death Grips) is something that NEEDS to be tempered with a sense of humor/fun or else it's just exasperatingly over-serious.

Look at Saul Williams, with Niggy Tardust. Sounds super-similar to DG and you can tell they took some inspiration from it even if it's uncool for them to say so. Both Saul and Ride are extremely emotive, and in the case of TIRALONT he was rapping/singing/reciting poetry over really colorful, dense, layered, and FUN production - just like Death Grips would do later. No two songs shared the same mood or subject matter.

Everyone else thinks that all you need is a deathly-serious guy rapping generic horrorcore crap over churning Silent Hill loops - i.e., simply noise+rap like the name implies. And it's so gray and dry it's a chore to listen to. Clipping sounded from day 1 like a quick attempt to hop on a lucrative gravy train - "hey guys, all we have to do is rap over KSSHHKSK noises and as long as it's a black dude doing it p4k will give us free publicity".

>>69284915
Blonde is one of the most unambitious & safe albums ive heard this year

>>69285687
>When does Royksopp use acoustic drum timbres and extensive ambient interludes?
Most of their albums?

>or 10 minute drum loops than build on the same repetition?
so this is the extent of their innovation? 10 minute drum loops?

>he just can't touch the Avalanches. KK has never put out anything nearly as ambitious as Wildflower
that's just subjective and doesn't concern the question at hand: whether they're similar. and the answer is yes, they are

>>69285873
>>69285846
Ideas are only as good as the quality, and the quality of Blonde is 10x that of Anything James released.

I'm done now, i admire you're trolling efforts though

>>69285932
quality is a matter of opinion. the similarity between their works is, on the other hand, something easily detectable. I'm not trolling, you've just conceded arguing by this point

There is simply no definition.....of you're idiocy

>>69285932

>>69285963
lyrics on queer theory, class warfare, etc
influences of ambient music, house, techno
experimentation within genre tropes...
it's all there. i bet you're the one who hasn't paid attention to Royksopp, Silver Swans or Scissor Sisters (or didn't care, since they aren't p4k-approved artists :^) )

>>69286038

I'd put Live Love ASAP and Danny Brown XXX but I agree with OP. Pretty thin selection.

Personally I didn't think Blond was very innovative musically but the entire structure of the album and the rollout were quite innovative.

I feel like that album pushed some limits as far as how people actually perceive the concept of an album and what they usually expect. The skits and interviews and short songs make it feel disjointed but it's still consistent in tone.

That bitch Jasmine broke my heart

>>69284587

>>69285125
>conceptually
This is why I like artists like OPN and Ferraro because their music is artistic and they, accurately, can be called artists as well as musicians.
I feel like this is what prevents musicians from being innovative, experimental, long lasting or inspiring. People are more concentrated on making music that only SOUNDS good without exploring ideas, concepts, and meaning in the music they make, which can in turn develop a result that's beyond the original idea, but stop at a surface level of what they know to be music.

Danny Brown broke ground with Atrocity Exhibition.
And Tribes, however safe the sound was, solidified the sound that has been rarely appearing within the hip hop scene. Kendrick introduced the sound to a lot of newer fans, but Tribes utilised there own sound to solidify the fact that it will stay relevant within coming years.

Nice try pseud, post an album or artist instead of providing nothing of worth to the thread to make yourself seem intellectually superior to nobody. Next you'll respond with "Oh, so you want me to spoonfeed you" to further avoid any meaningful discussion of music or forming any substantial opinion of your own.

This thread is further proof that nobody on /mu/ can separate discussions of groundbreaking/influential artists and their own personal favorite artists.

Yo Check it out y'all let me know what y'all think..

I think Matt Elliott is great for folk, even if he is kinda hit and miss he has some great sorta minimalist folk and folk-electronic stuff.

IMO, one of the most groundbreaking projects to be released in recent memory is Julian Casablancas + The Voidz album. For rock music, that shit was just on an entirely different level in terms of composition and production. Hopefully that project will be a model for rock music to come because it was very interesting.

It was the start of taking electronic music production on whole another level.
And it took another artists almost 5 years to achieve the comparable skill

Groundbreaking in what sense? You need to be careful about what you consider to be groundbreaking or not groundbreaking considering music is a very subjective art form. Also don't confuse the question, 'do I like it?' with 'is it good?'

>>69290590
I don't understand how groundbreaking music and getting a good score on pitchfork are mutually exclusive things. that's not an argument you're just venting your frustration about pitchfork. don't take what could be quality music out on some shitty music journalists.
