>cheezy
>Implying that is not good
You need to be a genius of music to do a really cool melody.
You probably like Aphex Twin or some shitty 90s music with this stupid logic.

The fact that so many books still name the Beatles "the greatest or most significant or most influential" rock band ever only tells you how far cock music still is from becoming a serious art. Jazz critics have long recognized that the greatest jazz musicians of all times are Duke Ellington and John Coltrane, who were not the most famous or richest or best sellers of their times, let alone of all times. Classical critics rank the highly controversial Beethoven over classical musicians who were highly popular in courts around Europe. Rock critics are still blinded by commercial success: the Beatles sold more than anyone else (not true, by the way), therefore they must have been the greatest. Jazz critics grow up listening to a lot of jazz music of the past, classical critics grow up listening to a lot of classical music of the past. Rock critics are often totally ignorant of the rock music of the past, they barely know the best sellers. No wonder they will think that the Beatles did anything worth of being saved.

REDDIT NEEDS U BACK
Their self-titled albums are good. Trans Europe Express is good. Even The Man Machine is decent. Everything else is just ok or mediocre imo
>>61297641
Aphex Twin writes good melodies tho
>>61297641
Aphex Twin's favourite record is Computer World
They lost me after Man Machine, but everything before it is great.
