ITT: The reason why /mu/ berates people for listening to /mu/core is because all internet music boards are born out of elitist hipsterism.
People like this are obsessed and hellbent on achieving a feeling in which they're listening to music in which very few or nobody else is listening to. They get off to this sense of ascended musical discovery.
'Entry-level' hipsters believe this ascended level is the thing we call /mu/core, but because people on /mu/ treat /mu/core like 'entry-level' hipsters treat radio pop, many of it's members are in a race to find the most obscure music which they happen to like. Meanwhile, they listen to any /mu/core plagued with bias from their sense of ascension, and evaluate the albums as negatively as possible.
/mu/core was born out of a collective sense of praise and acclaim on this board. Maybe there are a few you dislike, as is natural. But stop forcing and feigning dislike for these great albums because of some aimless quest to have the most original looking music library.
In general, a combination of proficient and consistent musical discovery and positive evaluation of the music you come across will accumulate in the maximal state of musical enjoyment.
Agree?
You know, I really wanted to respond with a clever shitpost, but I actually do kind of agree with this. nu /mu/ is a weird place.
I agree.

>being this insecure about what someone thinks of the music you like on a Malaysian finger-painting board
nah but, hating people for liking /mu/core is pretty not cool, by definition of being an individual with an opinion, you are yourself entitled to like things that others do not, and others are entitled to dislike things that you like vice versa ect ect.
Given that most of the albums in /mu/core are considered 'classics' by the majority of both intelligent and popular criticism, they really are a 'starting point' for which people should jump off from though. This was the original intent of /mu/core, by listening to a portion of the albums considered /mu/core you bring yourself up to speed with the (popular) music canon of the last 50 or so years, ready to explore some of the more challenging stuff. You don't even have to like the albums there, it's really just a primer.
I do still agree with the assertion though that a lot of people listen to weird and esoteric music to appear elevated above your garden variety /mu/tant though. Still, if a person genuinely likes this music than they are entitled to their opinion, what they are not entitled to do is judge other people based upon a perceived difference in the authenticity of a given person's taste
tl;dr, you do you

An experiment in a pen-and-paper composing general, made for all the theory autists
This differs from /prod/ in that it is more focused on art music and music theory. That is not to say /prod/'s electronic music is unwelcome, by all means, post here! But follow in the footsteps of the classical composers of the 20th century who experimented in electronic music. But remember, this is NOT /classical/. Any art music, such as jazz, is acceptable
Post clyps and accompanying notation so we can accurately critique your composing from a theory perspective

THE _NEW_ /comp/ COMPOSITION CHALLENGE #1 MODULATION. I want to open this up to more people since not many people seem to be doing it.
Compose a song that is no more than 60 seconds long. You are free to choose tempo, time signatures and other characteristics yourself, but here's the catch:
1. If you've never written a piece that modulates, now your time to start. Modulate to a different key somewhere in the middle of your piece, and then modulate back to the original key for the end. Keys that are commonly modulated to are relative minor or major and the dominant. These are good places to start. If you have modulated before, but only to closely related keys, try writing a piece that modulates to a distant key, 3 or 4 sharps/flats away.
2. If you're already comfortable with modulating _you MUST modulate within 4 bars of the last modulation__
That means that when the piece start, you must modulate to another key by the end of bar 4. You can also modulate in bar 3, 2 and 1, but when you modulate, the "counter" resets, and you have a limit of 4 new bars before the next modulation.
No more, but possibly less, than 4 bars between each modulation... OKAY?
Example: *piece starts in c minor*, bar 3: c major, bar 7: a major, bar 8: e minor etc.
Good luck.
New challenge tomorrow

I'm done, managed to get it onto clyp.it:
https://clyp.it/tdzp1spd
Those double stops in the middle are really brutal, but the portamento was easier than expected. Going from sul pont to not sul pont and a double stop at the end felt rather clunky. The second inversion at the end I thought interesting and not necessarily bad compositionally, but P4s are the toughest intervals to get in tune on most stringed instruments including cello.
Can't bump for 2 hours

It's the 29th of June, and you're one day closer to s/t'ing.
Listen to your library, show off your backlog, babble about new music, tell us what you have been listening to today and what you will listen to in the following month, continue Jangle's Thrift Tourney (it's a pipe dream), don't crap a castle, just let the good times flow.

I admire metal's integrity, brutality, and obsessiveness, but I can't stand its delusions of grandeur--the way it apes and misapprehends reactionary notions of nobility.
Is there even an album that comes close to having 6 10/10 songs back to back other than this one?
For the plebs
>Also Frightened
>Summertime Clothes
>Daily Routine
>Bluish
>Guys Eyes
>Taste
>Fuck you lion in a coma
Fucking incredible
>In The Flowers isn't there
>My Girls isn't there
also the streak to lion in a coma from bluish is the weak part of the album :o)
>>66025143
but the whole album is a ten out of ten
>>66025143
why is Also Frightened so underrated? i think its easily top 3 on the album
also Guys Eyes and Taste are not as good as In the Flowers/My Girls

Have been really lazy keeping up with new releases this year. Give me some albums that you've been loving recently.
Doesn't necessarily have to be your album of the year, but just good albums released this year that you think people need to hear :)

The new Zeal and Arbor record is really fucking good. Like, it is what I like to hear in Black Metal.
Really dig this one:
Mourn - Ha Ha He
For fans of sleater Kinney, slint, modest mouse, duster
Really cool dissonant and confused sounding post punk.

Anyway, Marina is a generic tumblr pop artist. I wouldn't even care about her if it wasn't for her retarded fans. Same stuff for Grimes.
