Music is the one degeneracy that I can't cut out of my life. Non-degenerate is terrible/doesn't exist. Anyone else struggle with this?
>>66456258
Get into classical.
>>66456357
This sounds stupid, but I got into classical music via video game OST's. I don't listen to music with lyrics at all anymore
>>66456357
I've tried. Where do I start?
>>66456357
As he said, terrible.
Just listen to 80'-90's country bro it real conservative American music they have some good stuff, modern country on the radio is garbage though

i have posted several times in /mu/ and never got a response so you can answer me this question?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ke8jkogx63M
is there a term for what the stringed instrument does from 0:42 to 1:42? i am talking about how it teases you with one note, then a few more, etc.. until it finally plays them all at 1:42.
it's like musical edging, so good
>>66456258
I just listen to classical, euro folk, post-punk and various industrial, goth dark/cold wave genres.
I feel the degeneracy more comes in with the glorification of infidelity, hookup culture, drunkenness and materialism. These genres only get as bad as murder or rape, and even then not singing about it in a positive light.
>>66456258
Hang in there, by the time you're 30 all music will suck to you and you will not get joy from anything anymore
>>66456698
Oh, God. I remember this one.
I used to listen to solely electronica, mostly techno and oldschool trance, a bit of dnb and (non-bro) dubstep. Despite the shitstorm modern "EDM" culture has become and the hell of robbery and rape that raves have always been, the overall message of Electronica has usually been very friendly and positive, despite the evil of it's fans.
On the other hand, in-spite of the message, the goths were the friendliest and happiest people I've associated with.
>>66456258
non-degenerate music certainly does exist, tho I like degenerate music too. resonance speaks for itself
here's some non-degenerate music;

etc.
>>66456698
It's a synth not string and I'm sure there is a classical term but it's basically a leading phrase
Setting the theme to expound upon
>>66456698
Progressive House
>>66457538
I just feel like, after being kicked out of the clubs and onto the radio, trance got really generic and lost it's energy and euphoria which gave it appeal in the first place. At this point, it sounds to top 40, what liquid was to DnB, just a smoother, more "chill" version, but not its own genre.
>>66457961
>but not its own genre.
eh, labels/genres are not really the point
holden calls his music "progressive house" among other things, I think. no matter what you call it, it's good
the Eyes song I linked to has elements of DnB, dubstep, techno, etc.
good music is good music, period

No, my vice is drugs. Weed is alright but that's like tea to me. I've been on Xanax for 10 years for anxiety and I love them and now that I'm pre-med I can't keep away from opiates. Oxycodone/Oxy or Hydromorphone IV is better than sex. The prices of pills in FL are so crazy it be cheaper to get H if I could find it.

>>66459093
what is anxiety? you're just always excited all the time?
>>66459093
I was paying $5 for a lortab in Florida when i lived there. If i couldve gotten H i wouldve.

Why dont you take crypto-sharia the fuck off this board?
>>66459224
Well, I'm sure you know what anxiety is. There's social anxiety, stress anxiety and what I have called Generalized Anxiety Disorder. Everyone has anxiety, both stress and eustress, eustress is good stress. It's the stress that makes you get work done and bills payed. I shouldn't need to explain what soxial anxiety is. Nothing is considered a disordered until after it persists for 6 months.
Social anxiety it's common but can be treated with cognitive behavioral therapy or just getting out and learning to socialize. Generalized Anxiety Disorder isn't quite a personality disorder but it's something you don't cure. You do therapy if needed, take meds and deal with it. GAD is anxiety that comes up for no reason and nothing to do with social. I could make a speech to 10,000 people on a good day but not leave my house a day latter with feel of a physical wall blocking me, dreadful panic and feel of impending doom. It's very debilitating. The drugs really help get me through it.
>>66457224
>tfw 30 and still listen to edgy death metal constantly
>>66456258
Classical and some metal bands are pretty good. People already mentioned some artists of the former. For metal I'd recommend bands like Amon Amarth, Manowar or Death.
>>66459910
godamn
sucks for you
>>66459704
Yeah, tabs are cheap, they're 5$ for 10mg but now everything is $1 a mg, sometimes taxed. I use to get 10-20 Oxy 30's (perc without the filler, you can shoot them) for $10 a piece. I could get 50 for $300-$400 and make a couple thousand.
Now they're $30-$40 for a oxy 30 or dilaudid. I just want to find some fucking H, one hit for $5-$10 will do more. I just don't want to wander the Daytona ghettos looking for a streat vendor.
I know its degenerate but this is my only vice, I'm working on my pre-M.D. stuff, doing great in academia and social life. Contrinuting to society. They say people with poverty or high I.Q.s tend to do drugs. Trust me, when you start working on your M.D. and PhD. You need an escape.
>>66456479
>"I listen to video game OSTs"
This is what an autist looks like.
A life without music is not worth living.
>>66456258
Art is the one constructive outlet this world has for degeneracy artistic license = free speech, gtfo america if you disagree
I can't listen to it all day long but I like to mix in some folk metal.

>>66460269
I'm actually very happy, comfy and content. I was just explaining it. I've been dealing with it for 15+ years. INTJ, a lot have GAD and are schizoid. I learned to socialize young and got a free ride in school because my early friends ended up being popular so I socialized well. Major skill to learn there.
Only time I'm bummed out is when I'm broke, naturally and have to deal with liberal shit in academia. I recently got into a big thing with my Uni over my teacher saying "white people are the cause of problems" in my clinical psych class. I brought that shit to the top. I don't pay for political indoctrination in a medical class.
I got my vices, like I said. I do my opiates once a month or so to catch a nod but otherwise the weed and xanax keeps me sane. The worst of my anxiety now is a little chest pains and sweating. Long way from being nearly completely agoraphobic and borderline AVPD.
Sorry for blogging. Psychaitry is my passion. I'm always open to give lil insite
>>66456258
>>66456487
you're a degenerate piece of shit if you still don't listen to classical music after you turn 21
do you still eat chicken nuggets and chips every day? still watch spongebob every day? still watch Disney movies, still read comics like a 12 year old? It's ok to listen to some shite music every now and again, but not exploring actual real music as you turn into an adult is pathetic

>>66456258
Degeneracy is everything that you enjoy with music, it is simulated sex.
Classical music is all based on religious themes, there is a huge cultural disconnect there now. You won't get your fix there. It's like listened to Shakespeare in Old English, we don't understand its puns and vice.
Just enjoy your degeneracy, there's nothing you can do to change the thrill you get from it. Your interest fade with time.
>>66461982
and the English of Shakespeare's time considered him a degenerate. In fact all theater was considered the lowest of the low.
>>66461222
Can you point me in the right direction then senpai? I don't know if I should look for something more structured. Should I start with Wolfgang, Bach, Toven? From what I've heard I like Wagner and Chopin.
Any good "modern" classical? I can't hate on Nobuo.
>>66462347
I like the romantic era stuff (late Beethoven, Chopin, Brahms, Schubert) though purists would even consider that degenerate.

Also, am I doing it right (pic related)??

If you liked game OSTs as a kid , try looking for any classical/romantic era music that draws on European folk dances, since this is really where a lot of RPG music came from (that and earlier Medieval/renaissance music)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kNeC-6SuLS4
also Grieg for dat norse influence
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bNl081XuimE
>>66462469
I like "drama"? Something hard, like the story of a battle. I also like more carnivally sounding stuff like what I linked above, reminds me a ton of something the influenced the FFIX soundtrack.
I was looking for the upbeat song when the jesters are searching the castle for the run away princess, cant find it.
>>66463080
This is outstanding, I'm sure this is denerage but is there anything like post-modern classical? In a similar vain to electro-ska/jazz?
>>66463333
see above, Grieg is awesome for what you're looking for.

Why are art /music / movies and drug threads best on /pol/.
They way we handle trolls and our self awareness makes me feel we're /jp/ 2.0. Especially with the weeb posting.
>>66462347
the pinnacle of music (and art I general) is Bach, it' easier to get into him through his lighter stuff, the Goldberg variations, well tempered clavier, Brandenburg concertos
Mozart seems to be the pinnacle of what is easiest and most natural to listen to, his music ebbs and flows in dynamics, harmony and rhythm most perfectly of anyone, things like symphony 40, symphony 25, piano concerto 20, 21, 22, 23
Beethoven and Chopin will give you more romance, more emotion behind the music (this is not degenerate in itself, but when it's the same emotion all the time like in pop it's just stupid) Chopin's Op.9 work, Beethoven's symphonies and piano sonatas are great examples of romantic music at its best
Then composers like Liszt and Rachmaninoff are similar to the two above but slightly more inventive with harmony rather than emotion, their type of music can best be described with that 'feeling' you get when you hear a piece of music that you didn't think was possible, note combinations creating harmonies in runs that make sounds that really stick in your mind as unique, classic examples such as Hungarian rhapsody no.2 and rachmaninoff op.23 no. 5
once you get an idea of the different periods and core composers of them, that's a great base to begin with
just one last word on bach, you'll never experience music like his French or English suites or his fugue work, it takes some getting used to, but listening to say a whole French suite 5 - 10 times, you begin to organise the tones in it, the different lines of melodies and hundreds of patterns begin emerging, you get to feel the highs and lows of the piece and start to anticipate phrases you really like, then you can't stop listening to it and, much the same way a piece of modern music makes you feel a specific emotion/memory very powerfully after you've listened to it many times, you'll get a tremendous emotional attachment to it, amplified many times more than a modern song because of the complexity of it
>>66456258

I think the closest term is "legato". Smooth, flowing, unbroken notes. The opposite of "staccato".
>>66464462
What are your thoughts on Vivaldi? Guys my favorite composer.

Best classical music appreciation comment I've ever read.
I listen to and play (on the piano) Bach and Chopin and can perfectly relate to how you describe the listening experience of Rachmaninov, Liszt.
thx anon
Capped for posterity
>>66465608
man of great scope and also very important for development of popular harmony, almost certainly the best violin composer of all time, his music is extremely harmonious and I would say an older version of Mozart, Mozart benefiting from better technology and knowledge
>>66456511
Modern country isn't THAT bad. I know it's repetitive with what it talks about but at least there isn't half naked sheboons twerking in the background.
