Have I fucked it?

>expecting neurotypicals to like anything even remotely out of uniform
Yes, you fucked it.
If this is true, which it isn't, then you ruined on purpose because you're more comfortable with self-sabotage, the surest of all tactics, than with actually trying to offer something of value and failing. Cowardice means chosing the safe losing bet instead of the risky winning bet.
It's ok to be like this now, but you better grow out of that phase before you hit 25 or you'll never recover.

STOP DOING THIS STOP FUCKING PUTTING MBV ON
The only time it's worth putting MBV on is if you're tripping on psychedelics or off your face on ketamine
fucking hell
>it's a "I'm pretending mu core isn't accessible pop music with a fake story" thread.
Everybody knows Arctic Monkeys or The Avalanches are the go to bands for this situation.
I'm probably taking bait
>>65275412
>using terms like "neurotypical" in earnest
You fucked it even worse than OP.
>>65275418
>>65275449
Samefag.
>>65275448
The Avalanches is a top choice that appeals to both normal people and pretentious /mu/ autismos.
>>65275392
u should have dropped this banger instead

Do you wanna buy some ket actually I think I have a spare bag lying around
>>65275392
Thanks for posting this. it reminded me who exactly uses /mu/
>>65275392
Serves you right for playing shoegaze.
>>65275412
But anon! All my friends are neurotypical and we have very similar taste in music!
>>65275392
Why sould you put atmospheric rock music on at a party? Assuming it wasn't a party with any artfags/people with taste
why would you play my bloody valentine at a party
I put on Since I Left You (song) the other night and people liked it a lot and just the album roll through. was dope.

Off yourself, you special little snowflake.
>>65275392
I will never understand these retarded kids that want to be snowflakes but can't even do that properly as they all have the exact same shitty taste as one another. In result, you're neither a snowflake nor do you have shit that could be played at a party.

Is the point????? Grow up you dumb faggot. Shoegaze is both ununique and socially lame
Damn man you fucked up. But at least you learned your lesson. Next time play Drake or some shit
>>65276457
Itt special snowflakes with shitty drone taste that belong in tumblr
Bet life is strange is your favorite game too
The only people I've ever showed my music were girlfriends. I already know for a fact that my mates would hate it, whereas I can tolerate their stuff, so I just let them play their stuff. After a few drinks it all sounds the same to me anyway.

>>65275447
Assuming you aren't baiting, where the fuck do you live that the majority of people there find /mu/core accessible and easy to digest?
Here normies get FREAKED if I play MF DOOM, Radiohead or The Avalanches. Hell, I literally have never found one of my favorite songs that don't make normies tremble like bitches the 1st 2 seconds of it playing.
>inb4 special snowflake xDD
I don't claim to be such nor do I want to be, but the fact is that what I listen to, IN MY TYPICAL SOCIAL ENVIRONMENTS, is atypical. This is because faggots will never step an inch outside of their musical safe-space, and that is specially notable where I live.
>>65275392
Parties are a different crowd.
I listen to Grime but when im with a group of people i go straight for thw reggae songs or the more pop side of grime
You gotta cater to the masses
>>65276707
Yeah it's like that where I live too, the only difference being that I can't stand listening to the normie shit and don't give a fuck if anybody likes what I'm listening to.
>>65276707
>What is cognitive dissonance
Oh look, you just described it yourself. Delete this shitty thread you literal retard snowflake.
>Normie
You too, dumb frog poster.
>party
>on Sunday
In what country does this even happen? Everyone works on Monday
>>65275392
Why would you put on MBV? Especially at a party?
>derr herr I'll play shoegaze at a party
>that'll get the party goin amirite guise
Christ that's like me going to my grandma's house and playing Giles Corey while we ate dinner.

sold
>>65276558
What the fuck are you talking about?
I'm honestly surprised the amount of struggle people have to hide their power level. I know enough accessible music that I like/tolerate to not be in a predicament like that. Also I don't sperg out if people dislike it, but I realize how that can be difficult for some people.
The only time I got surprised was someone thinking that Ghostwriter by RJD2 was weird.
> get aux cord at party
> play random mainstream trap and hip-hop bangers
> everyone is having a good time
it's not that hard to not act like a complete fucking tool.
loveless is one of my fav albums, but i wouldn't enjoy it in a party setting either.
>>65276962
cool argument!
>>65276707
People here are insecure and use music as a way to elevate their ego and feel some sort of superiority to 'normal' people, and obscurity is the way they measure the 'ego-points' they obtain from the music they listen to
So they act like the music you listen to that most radio-listeners might consider 'weird' is totally normal for their standards
They're indirectly just saying they listen to more obscure/experimental music than you and are therefore superior, most of them won't even realize they're doing it because they lack self-awareness
>>65277257
>Confronted with facts
>NO YOURE JUST SHITPOSTING
You guys are so fucking spergtastic it hurts- are you really so up your own ass that you think of yourself as anything other than a normal person? You guys think you're special or different because you're 16 and listen to music that is slightly less popular than Britney Spear? No wonder you think the "normies" don't get it- it's not the music, it's you
>>65277182
Literally just play music people will enjoy in social situations and don't be a clod. That's all it takes.
