/mu/ CONFESSIONS

I hate metal, but I pretend to be a metalfag and rip on other genres to piss people off and to potentially make people force metalfags off the board.

So in response to this thread >>51211744 let's see if it's possible to actually discuss jazz on /mu/.

I chose this album because hopefully we've all heard it and have some kind of opinion on it.

So what is your opinion on it? What is your favorite part of the composition? Do you think it deserves all the recognition and praise it receives? What do you think makes it special or not special? How does it compare to Mingus's other works? Do any other jazz composers have works that are comparable to this?

As a huge Mingus fan i don't rate this album as highly as people do. Maybe at the time it was released cause a huge impact by the innovation of having avant-gard collective improvisation rooted more folk/blues jazz than the more inaccessible Avant-garde freejazz. Also because it was his last conceptional recording.

In my opinion the real absurd genius of Mingus shows up in the 1956-60 period:

Pithecanthropus Erectus (1956, Atlantic)
The Clown (1957, Atlantic)
Mingus Three (1957, Jubilee)
Tijuana Moods (RCA, 1957 [1962])
East Coasting (1957, Bethlehem)
A Modern Jazz Symposium of Music and Poetry (1957, Bethlehem)
Jazz Portraits: Mingus in Wonderland (1959, United Artists)
Blues & Roots (1959, Atlantic)
Mingus Ah Um (1959, Columbia)
Mingus Dynasty (1959, Columbia)
Pre-Bird (aka Mingus Revisited) (1960, Mercury)
Mingus at Antibes (1960, Atlantic)
Charles Mingus Presents Charles Mingus (1960, Candid)
Mingus! (1960, Candid)
Reincarnation of a Lovebird (1960, Candid).

Listen those in chronological order is mind blowing seeing how he fast his musicality were developing.
>>
>>51213572
The Clown is amazing.
>>
>>51213704
Yes indeed. Practically every track got some political/poetic subtext. Also Reincarnation of a Lovebird is probably my favorite Mingus composition, the bebop collage technique he used in the introduction in the song is still one of the few examples we have of this compositional technique in jazz. Also i loved how his work dedicated to Bird was not an generic bebop composition but it was an truly Mingus styled work.

Cans are pic related for important listening/travel. I did have a mid-tier FiiO amp but it was entirely unnecessary so I sold it when I needed some cash one month.

Otherwise I just play music through my old Logitech X-530's. It's not great but they make do.

Why is something being "obscure" often a desirable quality when it comes to music and movies (among other arts) but never when it comes to literature?

Some people believe that a fairly unknown musical album has more artistic merit than a popular top-40 album, same when it comes to movies.

Why this isn't the case with literature and philosophy though? Why is it that no one will read something by an unknown author? Why is it that they are never or very rarely praised? Why are people so skeptical when it comes to new authors and only stick to "canon"?

For example, when it comes existentialism, people will pick up something by Sartre, Kierkegaard, Camus, etc, no, they won't pick up something by Rahmudin Ùalebeshku from Turkmenistan. When it comes to postmodern literature, people will read DFW or Pynchon, when it comes to the best pieces of literature of the last century everyone will read East of Eden by Steinbeck, 1984 by Orwell, Catch-22 by Heller, no one wants to read something by Koyunqlu Reuğhlin Séparmurat from Romania.

Same with all the "greatest books of all time" lists, there's always Joyce on them, there's always Orwell there, but there's never an unknown or an "obscure" name.

So, why do many people like "obscurity" in medias like movies and music but not literature?

>>51231156
Some people would rather watch a Michael Snow or Jonas Mekas film instead of something by Andrei Tarkovsky or Clint Eastwood.

Some people would rather listen to Taku Unami instead of Igor Stravinsky or Drake.

No one would rather read Rahmudin Ùalebeshku instead of James Joyce or even Dan Brown.

How can this be explained?
>>
>>51231156

It's not desirable because it's obscure, it's the other way round: it's obscure because it's good.

To be popular, music must appeal to most people. To appeal to most people, it has to avoid turning people off, so it ends up bland.

Same goes for movies.

Same goes for books to a certain extent, but the main difference is plebs simply don;t read any books whatsoever. So them lists with Joyce on are written by book-patricians.

There still some popular pleb books, like Stephen King and Barbara Cartland.

Generally people who are into literature aren't open minded enough to explore beyond what's being served to them by the media/internet/parents/big literary figures, etc.

Death Grips
What's that mean?

Feel like making one. Basically /mu/core but Japanese version. Nippon music is discussed fairly often around here but usually the ones making the threads are also those that ask for recs, so...

So far I've got pic related, name more releases in this thread for me to add.

Something from Boris should go on there. Flood is quite popular, so is Akuma No Uta.

Also, add Babymetal somewhere at the bottom for the hell of it \o/

Nah, I want to add albums that are discussed often whenever there's a Japanese music discussion. Like /mu/core, you know.
