stay buttblasted, ignorant anons
>>65682709
people who never played basketball should shut their fucking mouths on the topic frankly
>>65682756
this
>You didn't like The Da Vinci Code? Let's see YOUR book
>You didn't like Jack and Jill? Let's see YOUR movie

if one of these are valid they all are

"I think learning music theory limits creativity"

>>65682709
to an extent all are true, professionals won't take your opinions seriously in any fields beside music and film.
>>65682689
however tons of untrained/unconventional musicians have made amazing music, see Jimi Hendrix
>>65683059
For one, it's usually a self defeating argument. If the person using it also hasn't written a brilliant novel/movie/album, they're just as unqualified as the person they're criticizing. So all they've really done is set a standard that the vast majority of the population can't meet, making discussion about pretty much anything completely pointless.
>>65683091
and tons of thousands have made pure shit because they think they're musicians just by having FL and a shitty microphone
people think they can judge music just because they have ears
>>65683155
& people can go to film school and study theory and make steaming pile of turds. it goes both ways
shit art is shit, it's best to just ignore the shit and not make too general of statements
imho
>>65683320
my point is that most people aren't qualified to judge music because they're fucking idiots at understanding it
>>65682756
>plays an instrument
Does that mean you can get a free pass in the opinion power struggle by just getting a kazoo or triangle?
>>65683406
there are levels, anon. you'd definitely be upper than your average idiot cause it DOES require at least a sense of inner tempo to play those instruments.
>>65683399
most people aren't qualified to judge anything, but every asshole feels like they can talk about art, science, politics they know nothing about.
>>65683406
>>65683475
Hell, if you can play a few chords on a guitar and you can start to understand a little which songs are more complex, you're already better than most people who will be blown away by your cover of Wonderwall.
>>65683516
>it's fucking boring man, just dull and samey as fuck
All the people I know who play instruments are incurable fedoras and dadrockers.
>>65683590
and yet they've accomplished more than you have while you sit on an anime themed message board bitter that they have an actual interest/talent/life that you lack
>>65683636
>fedora/dadrocker detected
>>65683636
ouch
>>65683636
>implying i don't also play instrument
>implying i don't do other things too
>>65683665
yikes
>>65682612
lol! saved this pictur
>>65682756
>music theory
cuck
>>65683082
yeah lol, in fact it gives you more creativity
>>65683636
epic poast
>>65683082
Musical equivalent of Deviantart kids claiming any shortcomings in their schoolbook doodles are "part of their style".
>>65683857
>ignoring advanced knowledge in music in the name of muh creativity
you might be the one being cucked here m8
>>65683516
it's true, I just think it's worse in music cause everyone can hear and "feel" the music
>tfw write music genuinely better than a lot of p4kcore but i dont have hi fidelity or the hyper white kid aesthetic necessary to blow up
>>65683945
>>65683082
>I wasted my degree on music theory and am now a barista so everyone must feel my pain
>>65684008
don't fret over that m8, no one expects hi fi out of independent musicians, stop comparing yourself to other artists and believe in your work. you will get better at it over time.
>>65684028
>I never learnt music because of social pressure and now I'm a bitter fuck
>>65684088
After 6 years i'm finally mostly just making sincere shit that I have fun making, but of course its too weird for most people in my area
Ho hum
>>65683082
If learning theory limits your creativity, you're not a creative person. This is coming from someone who knows basically no theory.
>>65684112
that's the beauty of the internet anon, just release it and pray that it gets to someone who appreciates it. also there might be a little weird scene where you live, but they're pretty secretive most of the time
>>65684115
you should learn theory anon, it expands your horizons beyond comprehension

Back to /pol/ with your fascist rhetoric. You have no right to squander another's art they poured their soul into because it does not fit into your narrow minded conceptions.
>>65684180
Go cry about it, Morrissey
>>65684180
>learning theory
>narrow minded
to me it's just learning the rules so you can properly break them and create batshit insane things. if a person who doesn't know theory creates insane stuff it shows even if they don't know it.
>>65684180
haha okay >.<
>>65684008
Just do lo-fi, hipsters love that shit.
>tfw you have made a better album and it is beloved by many patricians
>>65684559
fuck off will
