How to build fans for music via Social Media
I always see Soundcloud threads, but some of y'all make great music but it just sticks on that orange cloud.
I wonder if there can be a how to guide to aiding one another out in being relevant on stuff like Facebook/Twitter. Not for one another, but in general too. How do you gain a web fan base without being too pushy.
I don't know if it's an entirely a /soc/ thing, but good music needs good exposure.

There isn't a trick to it really just play good live shows that people can take drugs at and you will get a fanbase of drug addict teens that will instagram u into stardom.

P-Rock stands for Pussy-Rock right? as in music for pussies. Because that's Post Rock, rock music for pussies.
instrumental post rock is for people with autism and isn't good

What's a good album to commit suicide to?
I'm going to kill myself tonight via hanging. I hate humanity with every ounce of my being and I no longer want to associate myself with them. Fuck everything.

You mean that one song we heard a long time ago but can't seem to find back at all?cause I have one.

I just skimmed through Oasis' entire discography on Spotify looking for that one Oasis song I heard on the radio as an 8 year old and I CAN'T FUCKING FIND IT. Now I'm starting to question whether it was actually an Oasis song or not.
Now I am not one of those guys who's like "sampling takes no talent" or w/e. But to what extent should they be appreciated in terms of the talent of the artist? My big two examples for this are Donuts by J Dilla and Discovery by Daft Punk. Both albums are very much loved, but listen to the tracks both artists have sampled for the albums. They didn't do much different from those artists. Like can we truly say Daft Punk makes some groovy ass cool music when really the groovy ass cool part of their tracks are really just parts that were already made like that...

people only pretend to like donuts because he died

I think that Dilla being one of the first to truly tap into sampling properly is bound to have some rough patches. some songs on donuts get skipped immediately but it doesn't make me respect it any less. more people getting into soul/funk/jazz has gotta be a good thing. it's just a matter of incorporating samples fluently without just coasting on the original song
death grips sampling techniques are way ahead of their time (commence jerk), go onto the site whosampled and look up some of the origins...

No I think what Death Grips do is cool that way. Hell even the way Kanye has sampled stuff is really cool. Of course the king of these being DJ Shadow. But idk if the appreciation should go to Dilla or Daft Punk just because they are making big some lesser known soul/funk which actually the real good stuff that needs to be appreciated.

Unfortunately that may be true.

Hey /mu/, what do you use primarily to download music? I've been using pic related ever since thepiratebay got shut down. Are there any other sites worth using?

first off, please buy your music and support the artist
second, enjoy getting busted by your ISP for using a shitty tracker
third, rutracker
fourth, learn how to use the archive / sharethreads, super useful and usually have what you're looking for

Aphex Twin is objectively one of the worst and overrated musicians ever. He just releases mediocre/average tracks and everyone just eat that shit, like...
>hurr he can't fuck up! he's aphex twin! he's mozart reincarnated!
Syro and the recent ep were just an abomination, unlistenable garbage. Andy Stott and Vril are the future of electronic music. Let's face it, RDJ is a washed up has-been.
Prove me wrong.
Pro tip: you can't and you'll never.
That is an atrocious beard.
>objective
>worst
I don't even like him, but are you serious? That's not how objectivity works, no matter how much you want to emphasize how bad you think he is.
Hes also a tool

Only post fucking cool music here.

David Bowie is objectively the greatest pop musician of all-time. This is an incontrovertible fact.
You guys can all accept this, right?
He's pretty good.
Actually, yea, I agree wholeheartedly.
How do you support that statement, OP?

Will there be more tracks?
Did WARP step in and close it down?
Is Aphex done?

how do you discover 'obscure' music? Ykno, stuff with like <300 listeners on last.fm or whatever
rym and discogs
blogs usually are the best bet, even tho theyve mostly fallen off since the Great Mediafire Genocide u can still find old ones and just find downloads to the albums elsewhere
Peruse bandcamp
What flowcharts would you like to see? I just might do it if I know the source well enough.
Personally I'd love a shoegaze one in the same fashion as the ones for post-punk and post-rock.
Can someone post the good swans one
>>53185813
Will do, that was my first one. I'm feeling like doing some more.
Some day I might expand the Swans one with all of Angels of Light, World of Skin, etc. But I'm not as familiar with that stuff as with Swans yet.
A Residents flowchart would be heaven
