Remember when Mac made Chamber of Reflection and then after people

That's like what i would've done

dont bully the fogman

>>74342442
yeah mac is a hack no shit. his fans are gen-z where they don't have any morals besides "chill out dude its fun"

>>74342442
what song OP? im trying to compile an album of songs that sound like mac but by other artists.

>>74343220
>1mil views from people who would never even care to look for this kind of music if it wasnt spoonfed to them
>all these absolute faggots who don't even like music in the comments

Why do people ruin everything?

>>74342442

he got permission from the artist actually. are people so retarded they don't know what sampling is?

>>74343649
What are you gonna call it?

>>74343690
snack demarco - soup days

>>74342442
it was a joke, chill out dude its fun

I always found it really weird how chamber of reflection had such an interesting melody compared to the rest of that record. well well well...

>>74342442
>brainlets don't understand the concept of sampling

do you also accuse rappers of stealing their music too?

>>74344827
yes

>>74343649
Mac stole that japanese guy's album cover for 2. The font is even the same

>>74344907
nah he stole bruce springsteens

>>74342501
chill out dude, it's fun

>>74344827
>>do you also accuse rappers of stealing their music too?
That's literally what sampling is.

>>74343448
>>74344827
it's not sampling retards
sampling is when you literally sample the actual music, not just reproduce it yourself

>>74343690
i was thinking something lame like brother but i don't know if it fits. it would probably have to be something fun like >>74343726

>>74343649
Upload this shit to Youtube.

>>74343649
When did he steal from MJ?

>>74345090
probably something from another one.

>>74342442
Dammit, I wish I never stumbled upon this thread. Chamber of Reflection is my favorite Mac song, and I thought he came up with that melody on his own. Knowing it was stolen/sampled/remade kinda kills the magic of the song.

Fuck you, /mu/, why do you have to be such nerds?

>>74345219
chill out bro it's fun

>>74345219
Tyler the creator fanboys need to get out of this board

>>74345262

>All 3 are gay black men

White genocide is real.

>>74345335
chill out dude, its fun

>>74344967
Wrong. The term is used more generally to specify artists using an element from a pre-existing work, such as a melody, even if they reproduce it themselves.

Like when Beyonce used a melody from Animal Collective. They didn't sample the actual music, but they got a credit.

>>74342501
Solid morals desu

>>74344907
>>74344938
What album?

>>74345302
THAT MAKES ME HIT THE DESK

>>74345774
Hosono House

he didn't STEAL it, he said that he liked the font and the style, and wanted to do something like it.

and it's really similar to springsteen's the river

>>74342501
You described Gen z perfectly.

I remember in an interview before Salad Days was officially released he said he couldn't tell anyone what inspired the song because he'd get into trouble.

>>74345335
kendrick's gay?

black moth super rainbow - gold splatter and chamber of reflection

>>74342442
why do people listen to this guy? if there's anything we really don't need it's more generic, boring, already explored jangle pop

>>74346726
chill out dude its fun

>>74346780
i refuse, i have absolutely nothing else going on in my life so i am going to complain about people who are better than me and you're just going to have to sit there and TAKE IT

>>74343649
Listen to Picture Book by The Kinks, the little la-la-la's were stolen by Mac in Salad Days

>>74346726
His sound has more reverb than other jangle pop

>>74342501
Chill out dude, it's fun

i fucking hate mac

>>74345219
Still a nice song though, fuck op he's just salty

>>74342501
this is mu-/nu/ encapsulated but quite true

Pitchfork a shit

>>74348640
same

>>74345090
nothing really, it was the closest i could find to another one. it doesn't really fit so i probably wont include it.

>>74345021
i actually kind of like this idea. i was thinking of maybe interlacing those songs with actual mac demo's, call it a bootleg, and see if we could fool anyone into thinking it was legit

thats wrong though

>>74344967
actually recreating samples happens so fucking often im amazed at the balls you have for posting so confidently regarding a topic you know little to nothing about

>>74343649
would u care to elaborate on what songs he based off of these?

>>74350745
This please, the styles are similar but I'm not hearing any blatant ripoffs except for OP's

>>74344985
Call it Hack DeMarco

>>74349856
nigga that doesn't make it sampling. mac demarco made no effort to make it sound like the original and you retarded mac fags know that

>>74346157

>fucking pleb doesn't know what an interpolation is

saw him play last night in a hotel room. It ruled

>>74348640
Me too

>>74344967
Well this is interpolation, which is a subcategory of sampling

>>74345219
god why do you let this board ruin songs/artists for you

NOTHING posted here is of any merit whatsoever, if you enjoy it whatever

cfhill out bro it's fun

>>74344907
>>74344938
jesus fuck he didn't steal it it's called homage

>>74350745
aside from i dig love none of them are really based on a particular song, they're only related in spirit. im not trying to claim mac ripped anyone off.

>>74342442
thanks for the heads up, now i don't need to bother checking out his crappy 'music'

>>74343649
Can you tell what songs he ripped off? Was Freaking out the neiborhood ripping off hold on or something?

Also of you guys dig deeper there are now soo many Mac clones that women absolutely love. I forget what this one guys name was but it was literally him whining with a shitty banana guitar on youtube and it got so much praise lmao. Also is nobody gonna bring up Conan Mockasin

>>74357308
see
>>74357267

while im quoting, i have noticed a lot of mac clones come out which in my opinion completely validates him as an artist. if someone is copping your style you must be doing something right. the best i've seen was jons

>>74349856
Sampling is when you take a piece of music and put it in a sampler. Taking a melody from another song and recreating it is interpolation

>>74344938
no that's what people think but he actually stole japanese guy's cover

check his whats in my bag video he'll tell you the same

>>74344967
>>74353413
hahaha eat shit fgt

>>74357374
which is a sampling technique

>>74348333
That's not innovation that's more like pseudo-experimentation and also the music equivalent of using the smudge tool in gimp to beautify

>>74357425
This he didn't get permission and the gook who wrote the shit hasn't earned a cent

It means nothing

Tyler did the same thing on 911 with this song

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OquReWEs1Yk

It's normal and there's nothing wrong with stealing from your influences

>>74357308
https://youtu.be/Og1svKY9ni4

>>74357518
all I was pointing out is that he didn't copy Springsteen's cover

don't really care about copying/stealing, this is music it's happening all the time really

>>74345219
wait till you hear this,

he didn't even invent the instruments used to record the song.

and those words hes saying? he just stole those from the english language. what a hack.

>>74342442
Didn't he credit that guy? Like on the album?

as much as I dig mac when I heard about the Hosono cover and went and listened to haruomi hosonos solo albums then YMO (mac cites them alot) I found myself immersed in music that does everything the current mac clones and bedroom music guys are trying to do but way more chill and musically skilled. it seems like these artists are trying to svratch the surface of whay those old exotica fusion albums did from Those guys and none have come close.

https://youtu.be/xvGser-5mKs

>>74357684
i don't see anything on booklet or back cover scans on discogs, also nothing on his bandcamp

he unoficially "credited him" on an interview and his faggot fans swallow it up

here's the discogs of the guy as well showing no official crediting: https://www.discogs.com/artist/4218800-Shigeo-Sekito?filter_anv=0&type=Credits

may he die a slow death from lung cancer

i just checked my CD copy. he thanks shigeo where i circled in pic related but there is no credit under chamber of reflection.

>>74343726
Sad demarco - gazpacho days

>>74357139
if his intention was to do a homage he wouldn't pass it as a totally new, original song. at least an "ft. shigeo sekito" or "cover of shigeo sekito" would be there instead of a footnote on the album cover

>>74359654

Speak for yourself. I need to hear anything and everything that sounds remotely like R. Stevie Moore.
