Imo good taste is liking music that can't be played during anytime of the day. An artform
>>63946955
taste that is similar or identical to mine

liking what I like
liking what I like and hating what I hate
that which I can manage to presently maneuver to be seen as fitting the progressive narrative, in front of my progressive peers, of course

Depends who you ask I suppose.

in other words, Taylor Swift and Grimes!
also, many many black musics, for they cannot help their sexism and violence because of poverty and capitalism and such.
Don't let /mu/ sway you, taste is completely subjective to your own interests and perceptions. Good taste is your own, not someone else's just to fit in.

Very, very noble of you to assert, sir. I thank you.
No need to have any conviction, after all, what good ever comes from people having strong feelings about taste? NOTHIN
Stay in yer little cubby hole, that's what I always say
Being able to listen to music deeply and describe coherently and technically why you like it or don't like it.
>>63946955
Nothing.
All tastes are awful
>>63948069
good answer
>>63948069
I don't think a lot of why really great music works can be coherently or technically described or explained, though, except very distantly and allusively.
>>63948080
Is your taste awful? What makes it good?
>>63948117
It really can. A lot of great classical music can be analysed in terms of structure and content to determine why it's so good, and the same is true of rock music. Admittedly, rock music is rarely as structurally interesting or complex as good classical music, but it can still be analysed in terms of recurring motifs, ratios of length, development of material, effectiveness of build and instrumentation, etc.
