PSA: If you write off music for being 'entry level', you don't actually like music.

>for being 'entry level'
What's entry level? (English is not my first language)
>>
>>60788749
Something self-described patricians label some music to discredit its value simply because it's popular or enjoyed by plebs.
>>
>>60788679
What if you consider certain music 'entry level' but still enjoy it?
>>
>>60788749
entry level means for beginners
>>
>>60788749
music that's easy to get into. usually it's used to discredit more direct, poppy stuff that people think isn't as good as more "difficult" music
>>
>>60788783
this
>>
>>60788783
then you aren't writing it off
>>
>>60788749
what's your native language?
>>
>>60788783
You can even hate *all* entry level music you've heard, as long as the sole reason isn't "Because it's entry level, lol".
>>
>>60788783
Then you aren't writing it off. I'd just say accessible instead, though.

Totally agree, OP.
>>
>>60788783

Do you not know what "writing it off" means?
>>
The only music i dont listen to purely on principal is the kind the artist didnt write
>>
allison can get it desu
>>
>>60788891
What about people like Elvis and Sinatra? They're fantastic performers.
>>
>>60788917
They are noy my style in the first plalce but i am shocked to hear elvis didnt write his own stuff did he write any songs?
>>
>>60788917
elvis is cancer, sinatra is gud
>>
>>60788941
He wrote some. But most stuff credited to him wasn't actually his, by his own admission.
>>
there is literally no reason to listen to anything entry-level
>>
>>60788991
This is completely different than what i meant he can write i mean artists who just do whatever is handed to them by the label i hate that shit
>>
>>60789009
Unless you happen to enjoy it

I still enjoy icp from time to time even though i admit they are kak rappers

I disagree, I'm a professional musician, when I make a concert with my real band, playing or own "not entry music" we can get 100-200 in a concert hall, and this band has being active for 1 year with an EP promotion, videos, web...
But when I take a group of musicians who started to play together a month ago and play pop songs, classic rock covers or any tribute band, I can get easily 500 people or more without any promotional videos, recordings, or investing in promotion.

The same happen with the other members of my main band, we like to make our own original music, and we don't give a fuck about most of the music we play with the other projects, but we need to eat and pay the rent.
>>
>>60789009

...Because?
>>
>>60789196

Entry-level music does not equal your band playing covers of songs. I do not think you understand what is going on in this thread.
>>
>>60789009
It usually goes like this, the entry level stuff consist of the best of the genre with a few overrated hacks, the more obscure stuff is mostly mediocre shit copying the entry level artists excluding a few hidden gems who do things in a unique way from the entry level stuff.
>>
>>60789196
"I disagree"
"Let me tell you this irrelevant story"
>>
>>60789231
>>60789237
it's cause those retards explained it terribly
>>
>>60789234
Basically. There's some gorgeous gems in the unferground, but most underground music is just shitty attempts at mainstream music.
>>
>>60789231
No, I not talking about playing covers, I'm talking about playing covers that I don't like or composing songs that I never would listen of a different style of what I like to play. This thread is not about that?
>>
>>60789237
How can be irrelevant if I'm the kind of musician who writes off music for being 'entry level'?
>>
>>60788679
I think when people call something entry level (perhaps even dadcore has this function) they are just saying that it is worthless to discuss it, as they are wide known and there is pretty much nothing more to be said about them.
I mean, what would you talk about Led Zepellin that has not been talked in the over 300 biographies already written?
>>
>>60789459
We're on a shitty image board with a character limit, m8. We aren't contributing anything to the grand conversation of music. We're just chatting amongst ourselves.
