I'm moving to London in 6 months. What's the music

who cares. It's probably a bunch of rich unemployed millenials talking about things they don't understand or have no experience with.

>>69618185
So no different from Manhattan.

>>69618204
Can't say, I've never been. Last time I went to London it was literally just rich white millenials either out clubbing or protesting something.

grime, indie shite, drum and bass, bhangra, depends where exactly youll end up

>>69618141

No memerap or outdated geetah muzak, its like Mecca (bingo)

All the decent clubs in London are closing
If you want a good time you're better off in a real city like Manchester

>>69618284

>>69618277
>bleep bloops

>>69618364
Yes, the superior music since 1992 Dad.

>>69618335
well there's also fire, xoyo, shitloads of crazy little venues around brixton and peckham, what does manchester have? haçienda? oh yeah, about that.. certainly didn't set an example

That's too much, man

>>69618382
more like 82

>>69618385
Too many to list

>>69618399
We're talking about dance music here though

>>69618425
yeah, I'm saying most good dance music was almost entirely electronic or at least electronically driven by 1982

>>69618450
Yeah, but it wasn't proper good until house and techno came along and then the uk turned it into rave and hardcore and so forth

>>69618425
>electro
>synthpop
>Chigago house

>>69618460
The uk were into electro way before house arrived

>>69618460
fair i just jumped into this thread without reading it just to reply to that post

>>69618461
Electro and synthpop yeah but house was not a thing in '82

>>69618382
>since 1992
So, outdated.

>>69618521
I don't know rock had a long run

I am looking forward to whatever comes next tho, whatever that might be

>>69618537
>I don't know rock had a long run
Do you think all rock just sounds like AC/DC?

>I am looking forward to whatever comes next tho, whatever that might be
Why not just enjoy what you have?

>>69618521
not really. House and Techno were probably the most recent and significant musical progressions/innovations of the past 40 years and the UK continued to push that sound forward well into the present day.

>>69618561
>Do you think all rock just sounds like AC/DC?
No, but how can you think that dance music is outdated but rock isn't? Like what are you on mate?

>>69618561
>Under no circumstances listen to new music

>>69618570
It's all just bleep bloops.
>>69618582
If it's been around since the 70s, it's outdated
>>69618588
>Under no circumstances listen to music made before you were born

>>69618613
How is rock music not outddated?

>>69618619
How is it outdated?

O SOOOOOOOOOLE MIO
STANFRONTE AAAAA TE

>>69618663
The claim here >>69618643
is that if it's been around since the 70s (or prior) it's not dated

Which describes many subgenres of rock.

Is this something you believe?

>Which describes many subgenres of rock.
What about many subgenres of electronic music, then to emerge in the past 30 years?

>>69618690
>new subgenres of electronic music make it fresh
>new subgenres of rock music don't
Nice double standard

>>69618688
>All electronic just sounds like Kraftwerk
Is this something you believe?

>>69618690
this is precisely the flaw in logic the person you're responding to is pointing out

>>69618697
Quote me where I said it did

>>69618696
Except you were the one claiming that while rock music wasn't, electronic music WAS in fact outdated because it had been around since the 70s, without any consideration for the numerous subgenres that have sprung up since then.

>>69618717

You implied it mate. I'm willing to agree that more modern subgenres of rock aren't outdated, but surely you should do the same for electronic music.

>>69618736
>I'm willing to agree that more modern subgenres of rock aren't outdated

Where can I move where >>69618185 isn't the case? Minus the white/millennial part.

>>69618757
Electronic "music" has been around since the 70s, so it is outdated. There have been no legitimate subgenres to emerge since then because it's all just bleep bloops anyway. Rock music on the otherhand is still fresh and evolving.

>>69618836
better than america where they do the same thing with arguably way more shite music. "EDM" or whatever they call that nonsense.

>>69618450
Disco is still good shit, obviously not happening any more but still good shit

>>69618846
Except most modern rock music has electronic elements to it.

Nice strawman though.

Can and Guns N Roses sound the same because they're both just twangs?

This is some nice bait btw

Twing twang musicians will never produce artistic music because all they care about is making music for feels or geetah wankery, they just don't have the musicianship and compositional ability required to do so. Vid related - this is what you should be doing with the latest technology, using it as an extension of your musical virtuosity. Using "chords" in an intelligent way, conscious of Guitar Hero and the avant garde minimalists, conscious of the Asian roots of string music. Being able to make good muse perfectly in real time. Using your own vocal pitchshifting instead of shitty "feels", reverbed guitar sounds with boring melodies. Combining the endless digital keyboard/laptop tones with the dynamic timbres of the guitar to increase the extent that the same melodies or even notes can play off of each other.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rYS8edMRgBg

Is there contemporary patrician twing twang music? In a word, absolutely. But it's represented by cutting edge electronic producers and experimental developments using bass, drums and brass instruments with the latest technology like Squarepusher, not by 4 or 5 hacks in a bar blasting an endless verse-chorus-verse progression over a generic drum beat.

Rockplebs are some of the most solipsistic in the world because they don't seem to realize that even the most "cutting-edge strummers" they can think of are 20-30 years behind the curve of _actual_ good music development.

Honestly, to hear the way some of you get indignant when I bring this up. You don't realize that you're listening to the most populist, retrogressive, kindergarten exponent of the "style" you pretend to champion, and the worst part is the irony is completely lost on you. Classical, jazz/improv and electronic composers are paving the way in music. Instead you champion the niche retard movement which is equivalent to classical *muzak*, smooth jazz, and country as a genre/movement.

>>69618935
Its all just twing twangs

>>69618942
Like I'm actually taking your ''trolling'' seriously.

>What's the music scene like these days?

Mostly consists of some kind of electropop that gays who shop at Topman listen to

>>69618975
Wow you actually believe rock music is stagnant and electronic music isnt?

Oh look, its the ''I'm superior for listening to slightly different pop music to you'' thread.

When you MC over a beat it becomes hip-hop. Grime literally sounds like a British trap version of Death Grips.

It's just a mundane scene

''no''

hip hop didn't invent rapping to a beat

Anyone in London wanna go to some shows following months? I got in touch with some dudes who do shoegaze, noise and free jazz gigs, had a lot of fun with my friends - there was a 5 day free/noise fest

I'm SW
drop a reply with your skype and I'll add you

>>69619140
Ok, but either way, Grime is the British trap version of Death Grips.

>>69619153
dude, stop

>>69619153

Grime is closer to garage and jungle than hip-hop. The hip-hop influence is there, especially in newer grime but grime takes way more influence from Jamaica than the USA

~~the more you know~~

>>69619002
Pity that the LSO is now going to have Rattle back and making it even more boring.
Philharmonia are doing well, and the London Phil aren't bad either.
Convent Garden is continuing to produce pretty good things when it's not caught up in some controversy (which it usually is)

>>69619200

it's been around since at least the 1930s
which makes it a lot older than rock and roll

>>69619153
The only death grips album that sounds a bit like grime is NLDW and that's only because of the kinds of synths they use

>>69619324

Not to mention Death Grips started around a decade after grime came about
