Hello friends, this is a thread for experimental music discussion. To clarify: Noise, drone, electroacoustic, free improvisation, futurism, indeterminacy, musique concrete, sound collage, and all that good stuff.

What have you been listening to? What have you been making? Movie and literature recommendations, concert experiences, gear, etc. are all welcome

What even is experimental. This is marked experimental on bandcamp. So wtf?

I would like to set out a clear yet general definition of experimental music in this thread.

It's really just a generic catch all term at this point. But I can't really think of a better word to use for the generals so it remains, I'm not gonna title the general "Noise, drone, electroacoustic, free improvisation, futurism, indeterminacy, musique concrete, sound collage, etc.", plus the term annoys some people which is funny.

it really is though. "experimental" is the biggest umbrella term in music. fucking miley cyrus and her dead petz is "experimental" kid cudis last album was "experimental" you could say beyonces latest album was experimental because she had a country track on there. it's retarded, like the term IDM
>>
>>65713842
>>65713895
Hm.
Im not a fan of these definitions.


Let's just say experimental music pushes the boundaries of what can be considered "music." Additionally, experimental music employs some sort of novel or non traditional technique. At a point in the past, Id say hip hop was experimental, but it has become tradition now.
>>
>>65714074
This isn't constructive to creating a working definition. If all you are gonna do is bitch, please leave.

Wrong, his post establishes that all attempts to create a working definition of "experimental" will end in pseudery since the term signifies more about its user than the music it describes. His post dissuades people from calling music "experimental" and hopefully inspires them to be better, more intelligent, and less shallow people, making it highly constructive for music discussion on this board.
>>
>>65717280
The term is good enough, you people nitpick too much.

A general rule for these threads should be to not partake in meta discussion. Do not feed the trolls.
>>
>>65717239
These threads are garbage no matter what sort of mental gymnastics you try to engage in in order to shrug off anyone pointing out the fact.
Not only is the entire basis of the threads flawed as fuck, none of the people posting in them even have any idea about any of the potential subjects that could get discussed here beyond a handful of the most entry-level albums or artists(and even with those the level of contextual and historical relevance of those artists in the wider sphere of "experimental" music is something nobody has any idea about; the familiarity with the hows, whys and whats regarding any of this shit begins and ends with downloading the album and maybe seeing how it's rated on RYM).
It's the exact same shit as /noise/ was. /noise/ didn't deserve to exist because it was shit, because none of its posters had any idea about noise.
/experimental/ doesn't deserve to exist either, for the exact same reason.

Stop making these threads.

Also, hurling shit at these threads has now become a meme. It should not be encouraged by engaging with these posters in any way.

Oh yes, don't let yourselves get distracted from all this rich discussion by the "trolls"(learn what that fucking term is supposed to mean, dipshit).

"Hey, this Merzbow album sure is good!"
"I agree! It sure is good!"
"Is noise rock experimental?"
"Hey, check out this Soundcloud noise track that I slapped together in Audacity in 20 minutes!"
"Is Animal Collective experimental?"

Truly, the "trolls" are ruining a great thing here.

I know these threads are basically attempts to get spoonfed, but for those attempts to be successful you first have to find someone who knows enough about this shit(tough) and is willing to overlook your total dilletantism and deliberate lack of self-sufficiency(very tough). How fucking hard can it be to just look for shit on your own?

>>65717520
I'm not really expecting you to stop posting them, even without the shitflinging that goes down here the threads just aren't sustainable and will deflate and die soon enough because of a lack of content or a consistent and knowledgeable crowd of regular posters. If anything, people coming in here to tell you what a piece of shit these threads are is one of the main things keeping them alive.

why is 70s free improv so much better than eai
>>
>>65717876
It comes from the Western art music tradition. Heavily inspired by the music and ideas of John Cage. I'm not into all of it. Some I don't find to be very groundbreaking but Werder's stuff is very conceptually interesting for me.

Well I did look them up, and I'm listening to:

I haven't listened to any of that stuff actually. I'll have to check it out. I think Brotzmann is more potent than either Parker or Bailey as well even though he's more just straight up free jazz. There's a great energy in his playing. I don't know if it was different at the time but by today's standards Bailey sounds like an amateur improviser, someone who's only just discovered improv music

And I dunno mate, between your inability to pick up on obvious jokes and your devotion to making these threads not in spite of but because some people have a problem with them, I'd say that you come out of this as the considerably more autistic person. Maybe even genuinely autistic.

Nobody who had a clue about "experimental" music would ever set out to make something "100% original", nor would they even believe that making something 100% original to be possible.
Let me guess, you've heard a few dozen "experimental" music albums in your life, you wouldn't be capable of writing an intelligent essay on any of them, and you have come to the conclusion that you prefer making "experimental music" to actually listening to it?
It's always funny to scroll through one of these threads(or /noise/ in the past), check out all the Bandcamp or Soundcloud links in them and realize how obvious it is that next to none of the people who are so eager to self-promote their shit here actually have a clue about the genres they are working in or even seem to be active listeners and explorers of them.

Yeah I gotta agree for the most part. Out of Saiga is a nice dark ambient piece, the self-titled track is texturally pretty good, but not very good aside from that. Final tuning is very creepy at parts. It's just that Sea of Losers is so quiet, long and boring that it kills most of the album for me. I fucking love the cover of the album though.

the death of /noise/ is no great loss and it should have happened a long time ago.

the concept of a general thread in which nobody knows anything about the subject of the general is moronic beyond words in itself. the concept of a general in which nobody knows anything about its subject and isn't even interested in learning is fuck, i don't even know, but that's what /noise/ was.

it was a garbage general. probably the worst general on here that was allegedly devoted to actual discussion of music rather than just the discussion of pop personas or social media or whatever.

lmao, "noise by people who don't know anything about noise" pretty much seemed to be the concept of that awful bandcamp noise compilation that /noise/ put together last winter(and that for some reason triggered a massive autistic meltdown which in retrospect was probably the thing that put the final nail in /noise/'s coffin)

Essentials charts are cancer and have played a large part in making this board shitty.
They enable laziness and dabbling("I've heard 20 albums from this genre that I saw on an arbitrarily assembled context-free chart on 4chan! This means I now know everything there is to know about this genre and there's no need for me to actually look further into it or learn how to find more of it on my own!"), they provide no perspective on the genres or artists they are devoted to that would allow any potential listeners to actually be capable of historically framing those genres or artists in a way which would allow for a clear and educated perspective on why they are significant or worth listening to in the first place, they gentrify taste and encourage a one-dimensional and simplistic mindset in which art as a whole is approached.

Do your own fucking research and stop begging people to spoonfeed you.

This one is cool. I've found some good music from it. lol at all these people parroting the word "spoonfeeding".

>lol at all these people parroting the word "spoonfeeding".

that word seems pretty apt to be used in these threads desu, the consistency with which nothing but the most entry-level of entry-level shit gets posted here makes me think that all the people participating in them have only been exposed to the concept of "experimental music" very recently(and possibly simply through downloading a bunch of albums from a sharethread here, which is legit one of the worst possible ways to discover new music, much less entire new worlds of music) and are posting here in hopes of someone (brace for it!)spoonfeeding them further(little do they know that everyone here is as ignorant as everyone else lmao).

Was it really necessary to frame your argument within an unprovoked, inflammatory attack? Chill with your elitist projections dude, I've never encountered anybody who uses essentials charts to the ends you've described, and honestly, I doubt you have either - you just assume such people exist in order to feel superior. Nobody ever tried to claim that essentials charts are some sort of ultimate authority on the objectively best works within a given genre., nor that they're all that's necessary to have an in-depth understanding of a genre of music. You'd have to be incredibly naive to think that was the case. While some charts are shitty, the good ones tend to be collections of widely-celebrated/culturally significant/accessible releases from a given genre, and when you're totally new to something they can be a really solid entry point.

Regardless, you aren't the arbiter of how people ought to go about discovering and experiencing music. It's good enough to listen to something because you like how it sounds - "being capable of historically framing genres or artists in a way which would allow for a clear and educated perspective on why they are significant or worth listening to in the first place" might provide YOU personally a richer appreciation of music, but it's not necessary.

Maybe I'm wrong, but you seem to be wary of people plucking albums from essentials charts just to tick them off their patrician checklist and add to their intellectual/hipster cred, and are condemning that use of music as a means of feeling more cultured than people who aren't familiar with that music rather than really endeavouring to having a "deeper" understanding of the music. And yet you're doing the exact same thing, you've just added an extra layer of arbitrary intellectual appreciation in order to be in the cool club that really "gets" it.

this whole board does that desu
if we were going by your suggestion that charts here are used purely as an entry point from which people can jump off on their own(which actually isn't true at all: anyone capable of jumping off into a genre on their own would be capable of doing that from the get-go as soon as they discovered that genre's existence, they wouldn't need a 4chan chart to show them the path lel), would you not expect that by now the general /mu/ taste would be far more varied and expansive and clued in than it actually is?
would you not expect all those people begging for recommendations "to get them started" to have by now branched off into whatever interests them on their own and then expose others to that knowledge on /mu/?
but that's not happening at all. instead /mu/ consists of what it's always consisted of: the same albums and artists posted over and over and over by people who seem to either be uninterested or incapable of going beyond in their interests.

except that you're just assuming all of this shit. actually read the post you replied to. The anon who asked for the essentials chart didn't say anything like "get me started" or anything like that.
>Anyone have any relevant essentials charts they can share?
That is literally all they said. Everything else is you imagining who and what this person is and its entirely unjustified.
Personally I do a lot of research about music that I'm interested in. I find music through many different channels. One of those channels is /mu/ and on /mu/ I have, at times, referred to essentials charts. Only a few times and I never treat them as gospel. I always consider it to be one random person's opinion and taste. I think you'd be a moron if you thought it was anything else.

Don't know how experimental this is, but it's pretty good.

I'm off to poop.
I'll report back here on how it went after I'm done.

Anyone wanna spoonfed me ?
Im a hungry baby:)

Update: it was pretty good.
Couple of huge brown boulders, a few smaller ones. Very steamy. All of them as solid as it gets, no problems with cleaning up or anything.
I'd give the complete experience a 7/10. It wasn't one of those poops that are so great that they give you that "born again" feeling, but it was nice.

>>65731809
Pooping is a very intimate and introspective ritual for me, it takes me deep within my innermost being every time. I'm not comfortable sharing something like that with anyone, sorry.
