/mu/ got slightly better. This board had a phase were it sided with badpop artists to prove lewrongenerationers wrong. Remember the kesha meme? Also back in the day the board unironically discussed top 40 pop and bro EDM

indie music is good when it's the electro/synth kind and not the shoegaze yuppie garbage.

also, all of the hiphop posted here is derivative garbage, meant to be mass consumed by the throngs of unsophisticated plebes.

I dont even know when it became like this. One day i entered the board and it was flooding with that lavren pics and threads criticizing p4k for white guilt and shit like that
Thats when i realized mu is died and no one here cares about music anymore
More normies
>>
>>63227688
>elitism died
It didn't though, what happened is 4chan gets flooded with more retards every year thinking they are in good company. What you are seeing is us flooded with morons

The mods are hugely at fault though, they could have nipped bad threads in the bud but they just don't care and are useless faggots. They might as well just fuck off at this point because you only ever get banned for making them booty pained these days

If all the recurring trash like soundcloud, /daily/, all the generals were removed, this place would be a lot better. Same for all the boards, the 'general' trend was the start of the rot we see today. This is not a forum
>>
>Request for archival
shiet really brings me back

RIP in piece archive
>>
>>63228080
Genre /generals/ are the only good threads.

Without /jazz/, /classical/, /noise/ and /bleep/ you'd never be able to discuss anything past Davis, Mozart, Burzum and Daft Punk.
>>
>>63228080
But people who actually know about music tend to go away because of that flood. People here now barely know the classics and post the same albums over and over again. If I wanted to discuss music with people who know shit, I'd talk with my stupid real life friends about the beatles. I expect from a fucking music board people interested in listentening to a decent amount of music.

Completely fucking different threads. Feel threads were a place where you could share your feels with your /mu/anons. Music for this feel sets up a thread to be about a specific feels and not really allowing others to post feels, just to post music related to that specific feel.

I know it sounds real cheesy but there was a night that I was going to kill myself and someone in a feel thread talked me out of it. that's the kind of community that I remember this place being. A complete shithole with people who didn't take music too seriously and were lonely/depressed young adults. If we had a feel thread now, it'd be complete fucking pandemonium because the plebs and shitposters took over and there is no more feeling. Just an emotionless fucking husk

'cause /r9k/ was dead for a chunk of it. the feels mostly came to /mu/ while the pen-dipped-in-bile vitriol about women & normies went to /adv/. i mostly miss the old days because /adv/ was fucking hilarious when frogposters answered threads about some dude's anniversary present for his girl or something

I have been on /mu/ since 2004
I have been going to 4chan since 2003
I was on 2chan before that and other various futaba sites before that
Before that (in the mid 90's) I was going on various obscure forums, most of which have been lost to history
Before that I went on various educational sites that existed before the internet (in the 80's)

In all my time being there all I did was lurk, I never posted... not until now.

This post has angered me so much that I just have one thing to say to you: "You suck"
