Any of yours? List 'em, others tell you how right, or (more likely) how much of a pleb you are.

Nicer users can try to convince you otherwise with good examples.

>old stereo mixes where the sound is panned hard to either side
I can somewhat forgive this on early Pink Floyd releases, because it kind of works with the music, but yeah, I wish there were "proper" versions of those mixes, too.

And fuck, does it hurt the old Beatles stuff. Hard panning vocals and shit, it's not great.

>Big room house
Yeah, you're right.
>>
>over-reliance on build-ups and drops to create tension & release
unique songwriting and musical progression should accomplish that
>>
>>60407131
I hate ultra generic drops.

Like the producer thinks they're hot shit and it'll get people moving when in reality it's tame and bland enough to play in a Target or Macy's.
>>
>>60407131
You know, I was thinking—a lot of the crescendo-core post-rock and dubstep/EDM drops ultimately work according to the same formulae. One is more intricate, but still, aren't they both the same at heart—using a very obvious (similar) gimmick to achieve some effect? Crescendo-core has that note which brings it over the edge, kind of like the "where's the drop" bullshit EDM does. It's just that with crescendo-core, you can be more pretentious about it.

What do you mean by this? Like heavy metal?

>>60406342
isn't it just 32nd notes? not triplets

Haven't heard much from him, don't have an opinion.

>>60407690
Which kind, the crappy late 80's to now shit, the 1st wave, or anything having to do with it.
>>
>>60407612
Some of them are triplets (listen to Kanye's Blood On The Leaves, for example, there are some triplets in there). But yeah, it's mostly just fast high-hats.
>>
>>60407722
all of it senpai
>>
>>60405966
Overly repetetitve or screaming vocals.
Everything else I'm more or less ok with, and even with those two things there are acceptable examples of each.
I like all forms of music except unejoyable shitty music
>>
>>60407762
What about this?
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=TB1kRzla72I

Overly compressed music in general, grimes new album is a good example.
>>
>>60405966
>motorik beats
You mean the Apache beat?

so you hate literally all albums and music currently in existence?

>>60406452
>organs
If anything, organs are underused in music today.
Check out the last 2 Talk Talk albums for a good example.
