How the fuck do I convince songfags that exclusively listening to full albums is the correct way to listen to music?
>>61376170
Some genres don't release a lot of albums and some don't at all OP.
But it isn't you dipshit.
everyone has their own way of listening to music and that's ok
everything's going to be ok
>>61376170
>listening to country albums in full
lmao
suck your own dick on a bed of nails while mumbling about the darkies
>>61376170
get a life
>>61376317
everyone on /mu/, look at this one post right here pls.
>>61376170
Go to reddit, they'll all agree with you there
>>61378389
lmao if you listen to individual songs on a prog rock album you're a fucking pleb and you're not seeing the designed art at all
>>61378425
do you know anything about Reddit
the only problem is that they aren't elitist enough
>>61378429
lmao if you listen to a prog rock album you're a fucking pleb
>>61376170
>rockism
kek. you realize listening to alubm is a corporate formula made as it was the ammount of music that could easily fit on a vinyl record. a medium that turned art into a consumer good.
>>61377406
here's your reply
>>61378460
yes, and the rock artists made the music KNOWING IT WAS GOING TO BE ON A FINITE LENGTH MEDIUM SO THEY FUCKING DESIGNED IT TO BE LISTENED AS AN ALBUM
>>61376170
First you must get them to actually be interested in music, rather than just wanting vapidly catchy sonic backdrops to perk up their shallow lives.

try it some time
>>61378594
there are many concept albums in hip hop - if you're not listening to cLOUDDEAD or A Prince among Thieves as complete albums then you have no fucking idea what you're listening to and your opinions are irrelevant
>>61378494
some did yes. but not most music?
i prefer not to listen to corporate capitalist formulas. even those that work within them are still catering to the rules of money making corporations.
>>61378494
Loads of artists (especially popular crap) over the years released albums full of trash with 1 or 2 hits because that was just how music was released. Rolling Stones instantly springs to mind.
>>61378765
True, but who means to include hip-hop when they say 'electronic'?
>>61378799
good luck finding music that was not made to be sold
>>61378826
Music has the Right to Children is also a concept album
>>61378746
gillian welch is awful meme "country" for suburban kids
>>61377406
>>61378882
you're pretty much parroting why critics hated her with no criticism of her music.
>>61378882
I can't believe you'd call Gillian Welch a meme artist kek you are in way too deep.
>>61378845
Alright, let me rephrase:
>club-centred electronic genres
>albums
>>61378845
>good luck finding music that was not made to be sold
all classical and traditional musics. all experimental music made by untrained enthusiasts across the world
hmmm.... that was easy
>>61376317
WHAT
>>61378746
Is that mootykins in drag?
>>61379023
not to mention all the /mu/sicians who upload tracks, both legitimate or for humour.
>>61379023
>all classical music
>not financially motivated
Yeah, well done. You cracked it.
>>61379056
brilliant, I'm now only allowed to listen to classical music or meme music
>>61378845
>mhtrtc is a concept album
Can I have a source on that? curious
>>61379086
if that's what you want to take from those posts sure...
>>61379086
All popular music is meme music anyway so it doesn't really make a difference
>>61376170
there's no correct way to listen to music you aspie
>>61379091
whether it's a concept album or not should be a subjective listener debate, it doesn't mean BoC have said "this album meant this message"
That said, the gist of it is in the album name
>>61379023
Most classical composers made a career out of their work and took commissions. On top of that, you will generally be listening to a recording of that commission made by professional musicians and released by a record label.
You could always visit a non-profit library/archive and retrieve sheet music composed by an 18th-century amateur, then play it yourself. Then your edgy anti-capitalism will be intact.

or listen only to recordings of cosmic microwave background radiation
>>61379251
>recordings of cosmic microwave background radiation
>not a saleable consumer good conforming to corporate capitalist formulas
pleb
>>61379334
don't worry I make the recordings myself to be safe
>>61379469
Well, make sure those recording are nowhere near 30-60 minutes in length, or you'll still be falling into the commodity trap.
>>61379553
I could listen live?
>>61376170
there is no converting some plebz anon. smell the roses

you don't belong on this board

desu
>tfw haven't listened to a full album for weeks now
just been using shuffle on foobar and it's pretty enjoyable finding all these tracks i didn't appreciate enough on the full album listen through
would recommend giving it a try 2bh
>>61380449
>would recommend giving it a try 2bh
Of course you would. That way you are not the only pleb with a short attention span listening to music incorrectly.
>>61376170
How the fuck do I convince recordingfags that being in the same acoustic space as a performer or ensemble is the correct way to listen to music?
Recordings can never capture the experience of hearing real musicians play live.
>>61378452
hahahaha
>>61376342
>listening to county music
>>61376170
If I listen to nothing but country albums, does that mean I listen to music correctly?
>>61378460
Why is it that this point is never brought up when we are talking about rappers?
Is that why most of their music is uninteresting? and even better a question: is that why there is so much bragging about materialistic gain?
>inb4 "it's ironic". no it's not
>>61376317
fuck off Hiroyuki
>>61376170
>the correct way to listen to music
Stick firecrackers up your ass mane.
But seriously, music is your hobby, don't force that shit on other people. Most of them don't really care about what they listen to and that's fine. As long as they don't get snarky about your tastes, tolerating your friends' lack of interest in music is something you have to learn to live with.
>>61378449
no, they're just as elitist, but they like to pretend they aren't.
at least here everybody knows we're elitist assholes so we're all on the same level
>>61378460
>it was the ammount of music that could easily fit on a vinyl record
While you're right that the whole "collection of songs" thing is still used by some or even a lot of people a lot of musicians do consciously design an album as a whole. I don't know why this is so unbelievable.
And about the part I quoted, there are tons of albums going over this limit and even albums when vinyl was the only method of transmitting music that didn't stick to a single record's worth of space.
>>61378452
fuckin rekt
>>61376170
stupid rockist your music is shit too dumb /mu/fag
being a songfag you only listen to the best sound and feelings conveyed
i dont care about teenagers feelings and their shit albums
>>61378746
I haven't heard this Bowie record before
>>61378497
fuck off my musical knowledge is infinitely larger than yours
you are only interested in a couple artists and what those edgelords have to say, i am interested in actual music
Lol you plebeians. I dowoad 64 kbps ris of albums, convert them to a travk and then give them to my neighbor. I have him play it through his kick ass a track player in his 82 mustang and call my phone so I can listen to it while I'm at work. I work at a telemarketing agency so they all actually think I'm working because I just make offers and say stuff like "if you enter a contract with us today I'll cut the premium by 5%" whenever a boring part of the song comes on.
>>61376170
anyone who disagrees is basically a songfag.
The only way i've seen people change is from listening to an artist's discography
>>61378452
A strong comeback
