also as far as record labels go: Sonar Kollektiv was a huge launching point for me.
here's something I've heard yesterday that I enjoy: From P60 featuring Jaidene Veda | Softly (Forteba Remix)

Post any chord progression. Any at all (provided it is not stupid shit like A-A#-B-C) and I will reply with the scales to use over them along with breakdown of why.
My guitar lessons are based around using scales with chords rather than chords with scales, which is something I never thought of before, but is fucking brilliant.
Also open for discussion on what scales to use over different chords and shit. And general chord theory.
Define "stupid shit"?
gonna bite with the classic Em-G-D-A

>Define "stupid shit"?
Dammit. Should have posted Rules -.-
1. All forms of chords are accepted. Challenge me.
2. Wacked-out chromaticism has no place here. No A-A#-B-C-C# or any other of the like. If you mst be Chromatic, displace them like an actual musician.
3. Typing Random shit is acceptable so long as you follow rule 2.
4. Get Jazzy with it.

Anyway, I've been going through the shoegaze chart, and I noticed the first line doesn't really sound a lot like the shoegaze I know - why is that?
>>52782539
What chart? Pic pls
>>52782765
here you go son
the first line of artists sounds not really that shoegazey
>>52783047
because that chart also includes dream pop, and those albums have a more pronounced dream pop sound
Genres you wish were real.
>Depressive Surf Rock
>Psychedelic Black Metal
>Stoner Drone
>Noise Funk
>Glitch 'n' Roll
>Math Blues
>Avant-Garde Doom Metal
>Wonkyviolence
>Psychedelic Black Metal
>Stoner Drone
>Avant-Garde Doom Metal
These exist. Dig harder.
>>52792682
>Corpsegaze
>Neoclassical Folk-Punk
>Industrial Jazz
>Post-Pop
>>52792738
I honestly don't think post-pop will ever be a thing. Progressive pop and art pop are pretty much it.
ITT: Albums that are not widely recognized as being anything too amazing but are personal 10/10s for you.
>>52779748
most think it's clearly inferior to Citrus, I could not disagree more. not only their best, one of the best of the 2000s imo
>no, really, not a soundcloud thread edition
