Onkyo, when it's not being annoying like Good Morning Good Night, is great for when you want something that's halfway between music and silence. Like, when you're REALLY tired, and you want to put on some music after a long shitty day, but everything else is just too noisy and disruptive and MUSICAL. Onkyo is the most meditative genre of music I know.

thanks, here's one in return

Jazz is so boring

Second chair detected.
>>
>>64701886
no, we actually whole heartedly enjoy hip hop as it is edgy, trendy, and fun
>>
>>64701886
False. Even white people could enjoy hip-hop. It's not a difficult genre. There are also white rappers like Beastie Boys and Eminem.

these don't belong

I honestly only pretend to like hip-hop in order to have a social life. I can't be the only one.

>listening to autistic music is seen as cool

i wish

>>64701880
eliminate all but onkyo, new complexity, zeuhl and musique concrete
>>
>>64701803
>>64702160
Why are white people so gross?
>>
>>64703547
have some respect. white people invented music
>>
Every genre.

Imo a more important question to ask is: how are you personally dealing with your insecurities?
>>
>>64703408
that kinda makes sense since you're either a racist or close minded if you don't like hip hop these days
>>
i don't which is why i don't really have any friends.
>>
>>64702160
jazz is fun as fuck to play pleb. you probably suck tho maybe thats y you hate it
>>
>>64703570
birds invented music
>>
>>64703408
That's pretty sad. How insecure are you?
>>
>>64703570
Music probably existed before white people existed
>>
>>64703577
making fun of it on /mu/ of course :^)
>>
>>64703663
Extremely. Most people I know only listen to rap though, so it's often the only way I can talk about music.
>>
>>64703942
Most people i know only listen to this pop-oriented folk music which i absolutely hate.
Solution: we don't talk about music.
>>
>>64703626
Jazz is too random. It lacks decent melodies and some decent drum beats. It's technical wankery without soul. And let's not forget: the saxophones suck. One of the worst instrument ever.
>>
>>64702101
nope, you're lying to yourself
>>
>>64704733
It isn't possible for me to like those genres?
>>
>>64704760
No. That is unpleasant, ugly music. It hates you.
>>
>>64704809
it's nice music

>jazz is too random and boring because there ain't no catchy melodies and 808's and because I hate saxophone
yeah maybe you don't understand that the whole point of jazz is the art of improvisation
>>
>>64703601
I don't like hip hope because it just doesn't speak to me? Not the guy you were responding to, but, there are reasons other than negative ones for not liking hip hop and it's subgenres.
>>
>>64704551
It's improvisation that comes from the soul, you turbo pleb.
>>
>>64701870
Nah, there are definitely a lot of people that pretend to like jazz. OP isn't saying that everyone who claims to like jazz is pretending, just that there are some people who pretend. And it's true, I know a shit ton of people that say they like jazz and literally never ever listen to it.
>>
>>64703664
It was. Life started with Mediterranean type people, if I remember correctly, if not then at least in upper Africa. So, music had to as well. Calling all an entire race gross because two guys (who may or may not be white) because they don't like jazz just doesn’t make sense. Besides, I like later jazz, when it was a little closer to blues, modern jazz (I mean modernly styled, not made in a modern period) on the other hand sucks and is kind of pretentious and annoying, as it all sounds the same, but, it's still somehow free-form.
>>
>>64703408
Pretty much this

Not so much pretend to like as force myself to understand but same. I really don't know why so many normies like it, but eh who cares it helps me fit in
>>
>>64701880
What is American Primitivism
>>
>>64702101
What the hell is primitive music? I know what actual primative instruments are, but, what is the genre?
>>
>>64705400
>>64705425
Guys like John Fahey, Robbie Basho. Instrumental guitar music, very pretty, not even close to being difficult most of the time.
>>
>>64704551
>jazz is too random

it's literally not. if it sounds random to you then you haven't heard enough of it. there's a very idiosyncratic musical vocabulary associated with jazz, players don't just go up and play whatever they feel like. (free jazz is different)

that's why people can discern between a good jazz solo and a bad one
>>
>>64705529
>music must be difficult to make in order to be good
wew

That was a response to this post: >>64704809
>>
>>64701803
I think jazz is a novelty genre in modern music. Like old R&B, I think a resurgence will happen followed by a wave of fucking posers.
>>
The literally correct answer to this question is pop

Seriously
>>
>>64705529
Oh shit. I play stuff like this. Literally droning a string under a scale. How is this just liked to be cool? It's like a jig or reels or any other type of music with no lyrics and a cultural background and it sounds nice.
>>
>>64701803
"cool"

dat miles davis in joke
>>
>>64703626
I enjoy playing it but it's fucking cancer to listen to.
>>
>>64708582
how? there are tons of great jazz albums
>>
>>64708724
kys for even having this opinion honestly.
>>
>>64708734
i'm honestly going to say the same to you.

thinking that jazz is a "fedora" genre is such a stereotypical /mu/ opinion.

if you actually don't think kind of blue or a love supreme are good albums you have horrible taste
>>
>>64706607
>theres gunna be a resurgence of jazz
i've been hearing this for 10 years straight
a lot of people have an 'appreciation' for jazz but few listen to it regularly
