Music speaks straight to your feelings, it has pretty much no other meaning outside of that. You put it on, stop thinking entirely (something the aspie can never do), and let the music dominate your consciousness. It basically creates a giant feeling-hallucination that's intoxicating, energizing, inspiring, etc. At the same time, if you have little feeling in life or just can't perceive subtleties in your own body, music won't be worth anything.

If no song can give you that emotional satisfaction, you might just need to learn how to absorb it (I learned how to be more attentive to it, myself). There's lots of boring shit out there, that's for sure, but it's not hard to find a song with at least a chunk of exciting material. You'll have to ditch the cynical attitude, though.

You speak as if there's some sort of collective behind you. Even if the genre is dead and the music can't evolve, you're still capable of discovering tracks and enjoying them for yourself.

There's those pesky plurals again.

I don't understand your mindset. If you don't care about old music and want to invest in the new, why are you dismissing all current music as bad while using old music as a point of comparison? Wouldn't it make sense for you to be the one to wade through what you consider sub-par music in search of hidden gems or, better yet, make music yourself?

Also, what are you on about with the whole enjoyment thing? Music is all well and good but you must be delusional if you think there's really any merit behind it other than appealing to people who might want listen to it. You won't see people citing song lyrics the same way they do literature and other works, the medium just isn't tailored for that.

So what's the problem with "engaging in hedonism" and listening to music one enjoys? That's what it's there for.

Music can mold, inspire and change behaviours in society as much reading a book can do. The great thing about music is that it doesn't even need words to express itself, the body and mind simply reacts naturally to it, its a form of natural, universal comunication, more natural and human than anything written.

>>385614131
Average IQ had been decreasing consistently since the 60s. People now are stupider than ever. Music is made to appeal to people. Because everyone is retarded, music that is made now is purposefully shallow and meaningless so it can appeal to the masses.

That's an interesting point, but you're ignoring the fact that music isn't made or consumed on a strictly global scale, and that, measured by region, average IQ has gone up and not down. This is to be expected, since better nutrition and living standards would naturally translate into those benefits.

Here's the source: https://ourworldindata.org/intelligence/

Following your logic, this must mean that, for every isolated market, there is better music being produced, which begs the question: Why are you dismissing new music?

You're speaking in circles here.

And even if we assume that your pet theory about IQ is somehow correct, why is it you mentioned that you'd prefer to pay attention to video games earlier? Woudln't the follow the same trend of becoming worse as the lowest common denominator drops? If not, what's stopping music from doing the same?

Evidently not everyone does, if this thread is any indication, and you're making the same mistake you did earlier with the IQ data by taking "music" as a single entity when there are a plethora of distinct genres with distinct audiences and distinct target goals, some of which are very much directed at "outcasts."

Naturally those would appeal to people of a higher than average IQ, no?

While this isn't me, I can relate to it since instead of exploring music and taking my taste from anime/video games, I explore other peoples tastes and just move songs from their playlists to mine. It's because I don't have the time or want to explore more obscure music, eventhough I know there's some gems in there.

I never wrote that, I only pointed out that it doesn't pander to *high* IQ people effectively. Pandering to low IQ monkeys is absolutely what it's for. If you would like to stop now, that's okay - I only ask that you consider what I've said in the future.

Listen man, it's nothing personal, it's just that everything you said so far hasn't made any sense to me. I think that the assertion that there isn't, and will never be, good music is very reductive and ignorant, and your IQ argument is also full of holes. I went and looked for an article that made a case for a global decrease in IQ and it has the sentence "I.Q. testes are administered using a series of tests that scientism have determined over the years to be an accurate measure of how much intelligence the human brain actually holds" in it, which by itself should already ruin any credibility it might have.

Rather, I'd like to request that you consider what I've said, that you could find music with merit out there if you use classic records to build a taste and then explore the modern bands from scenes that you like.

If you don't like music, that's fine. I think you're missing out, but you don't have to do anything you don't want to.

My dad used to play vidya in the 90s and he's almost 60 years old.

He also got me into a lot of music.

If I had to choose I’d pick electronic. I don’t listen to music anymore though.

Learn to play an instrument and try to record something yourself. You'll be able to have a stronger appreciation for the difficulty involved in writing the song structure, playing, and recording.

>>385615321
Go to local shows when possible; not necessarily open mic nights, but amateur paid gigs. These guys are usually committed and actually care about making a career out of music as a passion project rather than some random jackass at an open mic.

My entire "music library" is 110 GB of Touhou arranges and little else.

>>385618993
I did, but I don't like it because I heard it from there.

>>385618824
You'd probably like some Danny Brown and Run the Jewels then, and I don't blame you for not listening to electronic music anymore, that shit has gone so downhill recently, that's basically the reason I picked up rap. Shit getting released keeps getting better and better, unless it's Kendrick Lamar.

>>385618962
Honestly, I thought about getting into music theory so I can appreciate the things I like better, but I decided I enjoyed the simplicity of being able to go "this sounds nice, I like it" as opposed to trying to figure out what's happening with time signatures and the like.

Every time I learned more about the technicalities of things, it just made me enjoy them less, so I'm fine with ignorance for now.
