It's 2016.
Where do you stand in the Pyramid of Taste?
>>63484046
Type III inching into IV
Type 4 myself.
Evolutionary music interests me.

At the bottom
Post punk, art punk, freak folk, and neofolk should be bumped down.
All are quite accessible.
>not being all 5
>>63484046
type vi
i only listen to ultrasonic frequencies, songs that are spliced and reversed randomly, and occasionally dabble in eai in xenon gas
I listen to music from every level of that chart. Have I transcended?
>>63484207
>songs that are spliced and reversed randomly
isn't that tape music
I like Ferneyhough, Grisey, Murail and Lutoslawski so I guess I'm top 2 tiers. I also enjoy microtonal music (xenharmonic).
Problem is I also love baroque music and renaissance polyphony, so that brings me down a few tiers.
>>63484237
yes but this is in xenon gas remember
>>63484207
well i'm type vii, i listen exclusively to tonal reconstruction experiments, place-volley frequency and Learn Your Times Tables CD's
>>63484237
Possibly, but it's difficult to splice and reverse them randomly in any complex fashion with just tape.
You need something like Max, or better, something like Supercollider to do it properly
>>63484266
Oh I thought that only applied to eai
>>63484323
Impressive. As a type viii, I exclusively listen to transformations of X-rays and gamma-rays into sound, occassionally dabbling in credit-sequence soundtracks of 70s crime shows
wouldn't it be better to be lower on the pyramid?
I'm pretty sure the pharaohs weren't buried at the top...
>>63484452
my grammar is also in xenon gas
>>63484474
nice ive been looking into hearing quasars through a telescope to capture that sweet "music before music was made" sound
>>63484805
Oh god, here come the "damn..."s
>>63485190
you're living on it
I will never, ever understand why folk music is so high up on that chart. I know it's just a meme but that doesn't even make any sense.
>>63485155
>hearing quasars through a telescope
Sound can't travel through a vacuum m8.
>>63484046
What does it mean if I don't know what most of those are?
>>63484046
This is the fucking stupidest thing, Shoegaze and Smooth Jazz are somehow type 0 but Industrial, Drone, Coll Jazz, Freak Folk and Neo-Folk are Type 2?
Free Folk, Free Jazz, traditional folk and ambient noise level 3?
>>63485624
Agreed. Chart is bull.
>>63484046
Mix of I-IV
>>63485624
please derail thread like others and dont feed
>>63486603
i feel like most people here are like that
>>63485624
>>63486592
>taking this chart seriously
wew lads sorry to break the news but you're autistic
Stochastic and Xenharmonic Should be lower, Spectral and Musique Concrete should be higher.
That being said, my favorites are Indeterminacy, New Complexity, Spectralism and Free Imrpov.
>>63484046
>Tibetan Throat Singing lower tier than Inuit Throat Singing
Can you be any more pleb?
>>63484046
barely type iv
always think the shit at the top is made up
>>63484046
>Musicological field recordings
Wouldn't that include relatively accessible stuff like Alan Lomax's recordings of rural blues singers in the 30's and 40's?
>>63484046
russian chanson is a joke. its generic Slav prisoner music
>>63484046
I remember when this picture was posted and this was the thing that drove biotroll out of /mu/. Amazing that you faggots take this image seriously now.
