>he has a socially acceptable playlist rather than a socially unacceptable playlist

depends on the crowd.

socioeconomic background, education, and ethnicity

just play some emorap

>tfw even your socially acceptable playlist is too obscure for normies

>>72343068
Mostly Indie stuff
Not that I lile most of the music that's in that playlist, but it gets me away from "c'mon, anon! You should be more eclectic!"

the patrish way to store music on your phone is to make a playlist with as many songs as will fit (that you like of course), and organizing it by mood/situation

normies love anything electronic or hip hop as long as it's danceable. they also love 4/4 indie as long as it's not too noisy or "emo" (fuck i hate that shit). just don't be autistic and you'll be fine

Hoping to provide a definitive breakdown here.

Oh, music and social situations... that old discussion. The contested space of the party ungoverned by a DJ... or even just a casual gathering with a few people, where greater attention is paid to the selections, and thus making them is a little more risky.

Generally I find that most people now are on that spotify wave - so often it's not limited by what people have on their phone memory, but I'll assume that I've had time to think this through and have stored some music for a variety of occasions on my phone in case I'm required to bang something on. (Right now all I have is experimental hip hop)

The problem with music + normies is that those with shitty music tastes, who like the top 40 etc, tend to be a lot more confident playing their music than those with patrician-tier tastes. It makes a bit of sense I guess, because the more obviously 'pop' music is more likely to unite crowds and get people dancing, even if its Bieber. Whereas Swans will just clear out the room. This 'lowest common denominator' idea is pretty central to the idea of pop music in general. I prefer to go 'highest common denominator', as I realise the sophistication of most peoples private music tastes will often surprise me. My main task is to unhinge the tacitly endorsed youtube DJ set of a wannabe ladbro playing armin van fuckboy and aviici.

Anyway, here are my picks for a number of different crowds:

>Total Normcore Top 40 Pop crowd:
luckily I'm not often exposed to this crowd, but I'd say my response is either a) - play them some fairly accesible hip hop/pop rap, hoping that they can enjoy it, so mid-2000s Kanye, Jay-Z, Pharrell, R.Kelly 'ignition' etc... or b) accepting that tacky pop is the motive, go back 10 years. I'd MUCH rather be listening to 2000s pop music than 2010s pop music, because its far enough back to be both nostalgic and palatable.

>>72343907

continued...

>Hippy/Dude crowd:
I'm talking the crowd who'll be playing classic rock, but kinda watered down and shitty (i.e. playing the most well-known and overrated song by an artist) - DESU I'm sadly denied a crowd of this nature, as I'd be happy to be listening to the Stones, Beatles, even Black Sabbath and AC/DC, a bit generic in terms of selections, but I rarely get this. I'd be looking to steer it slowly in the direction of Post-Rock via Punk and Hardcore - but I'd be testing the waters first with a bit of The Clash, Dead Kennedys, maybe a touch of Radiohead?

>Trap Rap/Gangsta crowd
Probably my favourite type of crowd anyway. Sometimes the worst of these mumble rap and autotune-R&B artists can get shit tho - I'd chuck on Denzel Curry, DRAM, maybe some old school Three 6 Mafia or whatever, but eventually I'd be trying to steer the show towards Death Grips and other industrial hip hop.

>Ambiguous crowd
The easiest to please in a lot of ways, but also possibly the most divided. This crowd is a mixed bag, often people who don't really think about music. My answer to this would be, good quality 60s-80s Soul, R&B, Funk, Jazz, with a touch of Rock&Roll and Blues. It's hard to go wrong with the likes of James Brown, Otis Redding, Prince, Miles Davis if its a chill vibe, also Chuck Berry, then perhaps cheesy but good 80s stuff too (Blondie, The Cure etc?)

>Good Taste Crowd
Peoples tastes are more specific, meaning its not exactly more a comfortable audience. Often you feel under pressure to 'impress' or to prove your eclectic knowledge. This one is hard to pin down therefore. I normally start with my favourite album from recent times that I think is dope (currently cuts from the new Kung-Fu Kenny, also Danny Brown, Kamaiyayh, Anderson .Paak, Blood Orange) - but if they ain't into that and can't even handle Kamasi Washington because too plebcore, then I am happy to go deeper or change genre away from hip-hop. But it entirely depends how they respond.

I have lots of Pac and Biggie on my phone, I'll be fine.

I have a pop playlist with stuff I like and would be acceptable to the general public. It has 50 Cent, Akon and other garbage on it, it's pretty great.

Filled with bestial black metal and harsh noise

>>72343068
Depends who I'm with;

Daft Punk and Gorillaz generally go down pretty well with everyone

With my parents, I'll usually put some jazz or downtempo. I can usually get away with Slowdive with them as well.

With my friends I'll put Rammstein or Iron Maiden on. Radiohead's less experimental stuff (OKC, The Bends) generally goes down okay with them as well.

I'd probably play Music for 18 Musicians, Another Green World, or narkopop, depending on the mood.

>sheet on her head
pretty sure it's a hipster

really depends on how corny they are. most ppl can handle stuff like a tribe called quest, or like de la soul, anderson paak, les sins, jessy lanza, leon vineyhall, macked demarco, gorillaz, kanyard west, fatima yamaha, joey badass, caribou, maybe a fourth tet song, neil ciciriega, the avalanches, funkadelic, crown heights affair, rick lamar-damn,

see? this is all just to build them up, get the party goin, have the drinks goin, everyone having a good time.

because of me

i watch from the corner and think, "hey, i did that. my friend's enjoy the music i played for them," and they think i'm a rockstar, i think i'm a rockstar. life hasn't been going so great lately, but this moment gives me hope that not everything is so bad. and then i notice one by one my friends are starting to get sleepy. so i lend them each a pair of pajamas and make a little bed for them on my living room floor.

"anon, you're music taste was so great, can you play us something to help us sleep?" says the cutest girl at the party

"yeah, sure," i say as i walk towards my cd binder, i take my copy of the soundtrack called minecraft and put it on. i then cuddle with each of my friends individually. we stare into the fireplace and reminisce over our friendships. some people have to look away cus i put their little bed near the fireplace. that's ok cus when we've all had cuddle time i put the fire out and go to my bedroom. i stare at the ceiling and think about my wonderful day with my friends before shutting my eyes and opening them to another wonderful day with my friends :)
