The first half of Tago Mago is 10/10.
The second half is the most boring shit ever, and I'm a fan of Faust and other musique concrete.
Is it really that great? Should I listen to it?
>>61795273
Yeah, it's pretty great
>>61795273
The first half is really great, groovy rock. The second is 30 minutes of people making funny noises with their mouths and gunshots with a mediocre psych rock song as closer.
>>61795273
above average
>>61795269
Finally someone said it. The first 3 tracks are honestly the closest thing to perfect music I've ever heard.
>>61795273
it's not as good as Monster Movie
>>61795269
This. I still give it a 6/10 though since the last track is decent.
>>61795269
The second half is inspired from free jazz dumbdumb not musique concrete!
I like both sides of Tago. I fucks with krautrock. I fucks with musique concrete. I fucks with Free Jazz.
Here in fact let me post some Euro Free Jazz for comparisons. Jaki used to be in this group before Can btw.

>>61795402
Monster movie is great. It's my favourite Can album but I wouldn't say it's the best one from a music as art point of view.
>>61795269
>>61795391
Yea i agree with this. I even like stupid Frank Zappa's stupid musique concrete but that was too much. But hey, weird people like Lester Bangs loved that shit.
Great album, close to perfection in that A side.
>>61795551
Care to elaborate?
>>61795622
Not him but Tago Mago and Future Days were/are way more influential, original and experimental from an artistic viewpoint, so they're """"" objectively """" """" better """". Whereas Monster Movie wasn't something really new or grounbreaking but for some it's definitely more enjoyable as a whole.
>>61795622
Sorry I'm far from articulate when discussing music. I guess what I'm trying to say is Tago Mago is far more complex and technically varied than Monster Movie, therefore more important for the innovation of art music. Monster Movie, though still technically impressive, is basically a collection of great tracks with really fun lyrics.
Sorry again for this awful explanation.
>>61795793
That's good enough for me, thanks!
Third best album of all time
If you disagree you are a pleb
>>61795269
literally i'm white and i dont know what free jazz is nor am i able to recognize music that is influenced by it: the post
faggot stick to entry level music concrete you listen to to make it seem like it's not that you don't get it brah xD
cuck pussy bitch
fag
>>61796223
Tfw someone doesn't understand how good your taste is
>>61796406
i have a piss badly
>>61796223
i like machine gun but yeah i guess youre right im pretty clueless about jazz
>>61795228
hey, mods, do your fucking job, k
>>61795269
>that transition from Paperhouse into Mushroom
Makes me smile every time
>>61795269
>>61795391
>>61795331
Yeah, this is the opinion I get whenever I try to introduce anyone to this album.
Aumgn is the best track on the album, though.
>>61795269
>I'm a fan of Faust and other musique concrete
Thanks for mentioning this, it really validates your opinion. I'll stop liking the second half now, because a fan of Faust and musique concrète on /mu/ told me it was bad (even though Stockhausen praised it).
Thanks, anon!
>>61796184
That would be The Modern Dance. Tago Mago is the first best album of all time.
>>61795273
yeah, it's one of the best rock albums of all time
>>61796805
>weird clanging noise in Mushroom
>ending of Oh Yeah

>>61795495
This is the worst post I've ever seen on mu
>>61797341
so you felt compelled to top it?
>>61797363
Nice try
>>61797341
>explains the confusion of the second half of the album being akin to free jazz instead of musique concrete, then mocks the original person's post, then posts the kind of free jazz that the music comes from
>worst post of mu
...this place would be so much better if people weren't so retarded they couldn't read
>>61797090
to be fair Stockhausen praising it doesnt necessarily mean that much as Irmin Schmidt and Holger Czukay both were students of his.
>>61797125
No fucking surprise you would show up in this thread.
>>61797090
I said that was how I felt. And I added that to make it clear that I didn't just hate the style in general. Why are you so upset?
>>61797673
Cuz you made an ass of yourself cuz it's free jazz not musique concrete?
>>61797429
I think he was referring to the silly slang. "fucks with"
>>61797699
Why is Stockhausen's praise relevant then? I never said it was musique concrete I just said I enjoyed musique concrete. I think there's a lot of crossover between free jazz and musique concrete.
>>61797761
>I think there's a lot of crossover between free jazz and musique concrete
wat
Only memorable song is Oh Yeah.
>>61797808
I remember all the songs.
>>61795228
>>spaghetti falls out of pocket
Wow haven't seen this one since putting ketchup in the fridge
>>61797461
That anon was clearly trying to illegitimise Aumgn's stance as a good example of electronic sound art under the pretense that he knows what he's talking about since he listens to Faust and "other musique concrete", and is therefore in a position to dismiss any works he deems as inferior. I'm just pointing out that, since one of the leading figures in 20th century electronic avant-garde music praised Aumgn (without knowing two of his students were involved in its composition), he isn't really in any such position at all.
If anything, the fact that Schmidt and Czukay studied under Stockhausen only furthers my point.
>>61797699
>>61797761
I don't see that much free jazz influence in Aumgn. Peking O, definitely.
Obviously neither of them are musique concrète.
I have only heard Future Days and I thought it was the jam. Where do I go from here?
does anybody have a version of this album that doesn't have shitty stereo panning?
Well /mu/, tea or coffee?
>>61800277
Tea doesn't require copious amounts of sugar and milk to make it taste not like shit, so tea.
>>61795269
i wouldn't call them boring, but the last three songs do tend to wear thin.
i do love the drumming at the end of Aumgn, also the dog barking sample is 10/10
what do people like so much about halleluwah? not even trying to bait, i'm genuinely curious cause i just don't get it. don't mind augmn though it's a little long, peking o is cool
>>61798997
just work your way back, everything from monster movie to ege bamyasi is worth listening to
>>61800277
Tea is the patrician choice, but I chose coffee
>>61795760
This.
Now, Future Days is a special case. It's not really groundbreaking, but it's very original.
>>61800390
>he's never had good coffee
>>61801028
>dude it's an acquired taste lmao
aka you got used to the taste of shit so you can now drink this garbage without vomiting
good for you
>>61801063
By that bullshit logic you should only be listening to unoffensive radio pop music.
>>61801028
>he drinks the equivalent of ciggarettes and thinks it does something
Yeah until you need more 2 more hours. Have fun being addicted.
>>61801130
>he's forcing himself to listen to music he doesn't like so he can feel superior to other people
ahahahahaha
>>61801196
let me guess anon, you only listen to music that you enjoy on your first listen
>>61801196
Boring b8 is boring. Be more clever next time.
