I looked up some of the lyrics to this stuff, and those guys are singing about specific streets in specific towns in northern Mexico and are calling out specific individuals in local cartels. It seems super-parochial.
They do. It's not just some, but thousands. Lots of norteno is narco shit. has been for decades.

Well I guess Mexican-Americans still listen to guys like Chalino Sanchez, but this really doesn't seem like music with a broad-based appeal if you aren't already familiar with the underlying culture.
>>61152497
No. those are cult like things, you have to be at least informed of the feats and identities of the character of the lyrics. Having said that some of the country/ narcocorridos music appeals to the blue collar workers and its a reflection of the current society.
instrumentation or lyrics?
not important
>>61152224
Instrumentation. A good song should be good whether you listen to the lyrics or not. Cringeworthy lyrics can ruin a song though.
like tits and ass
you can have weak lyric with strong instrumentation, but strong lyric with weak instrumentation sounds like ass
Weed = Bob Marley/Sublime/DSOTM/etc.
Heroin - TVU, Swans
Crack - Viper

As if there aren't enough threads about this, can we just agree it's fun to listen to even with the shit tier lyrics? Isn't it pretty damn decent musically fir what it is?
I've honestly never listened to it but I will soon.
The shit lyrics are part of why it's good. It's like you don't even get the album.
>shit tier lyrics
I think they are at the very least decent
>all I want in lifes a little love to take the pain away
>all I want in lifes a little dubs to take the pain away

Writing an essay on Vaporwave and the capitalist symbolism behind it for Music Appreciation class.
Apparently you guys are where it all began. Can you redpill me on the beginnings of the genre and how /mu/'s related to it?
I know all about the music and the satirical/cyberpunk elements of the genre and the relation of Japanese consumerism/90s home computing technology world of tomorrow, but the history is where I need some extra info.
If /mu/ is interested I'll post a link to the essay when done.

some tranny slowed down some diana ross songs and pretentious internet hipsters ate it up

It got attention online and around here somewhat and on Last.fm it was initially thought of as a joke until there were some quality releases and it began picking up attention from music review sites such as Tiny Mix Tapes, Marcel's Music Journal, Wire, and Dummy Magazine. it received critical acclaim from these sites and many others and it's considered now to be the forefront of modern electronic music.
does /mu/ like The Byrds?
what's their best album?
>>61151462
They're GOAT
Fifth Dimension for me
5th Dimension is their best objectively. Though I dig Ballad of Easy Rider
Greatest Hits volume one and two. Has all the stuff you love, and does away with the filler and songs you'd skip anyway. Oh, who the fuck cares? The Byrds are great, and you should just buy everything they ever put out!
Have you ever showed Death Grips or any /mu/core stuff to your family? What'd they think?
>show dad Death Grips - Exmilitary
>says it reminds him of slave chant music (as a "joke")
>dad's a republican asshole piece of shit, want to teach him how to swim at this point
>then says he likes the aggressiveness and raw energy of the band
>says he'll check out their other albums

Hey /mu/, I'm looking for stuff reminiscent of Ryuichi Sakamoto's work. Something along the lines of Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence would be great. Do you have any recommendations? Thank you!
>>61150959
rachel's - music for egon schiele

>people still only listen to Sakamoto's second-pressing-Debussy-inspired rehashed piano works and trios
