karmakramer Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 I've realized after attempting to write several album reviews or small recommendations if you will that every time I do it nothing about it feels natural. Explaining music just seems so pointless... yet the fucking worse part about it is... in social situations it leaves me completely dumb founded when it comes to naming albums, artists, genres I like... and I often give just really generic stupid responses, because nothing else really comes to mind. I just get blank in the head. Yet, I spend probably 20% of my day thinking/listening to music... seems weird.

Guest zaphod Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 oh i hate when the conversation gets to genres. i always immediately cop to liking idm, for some reason. i hardly listen to it anymore but i say i like it because i guess i think the sheer act of being so honest about something so potentially embarrassing will get me pussy. like for instance, i had a girl recently ask me what kind of music i liked (this was on a second date) and i mistakenly told her the truth, which is to say that i like electronic music. then we had this conversation: her: oh...so like techno? me: no, i mean, i like techno, but more experimental her: oh...so what exactly? me: well, ha, it's, uh, it's called "idm" her: oh...so what's that stand for? me: well, it's a stupid name, really, so stupid...but...intelligent dance music...but it's so stupid and i really listen to mostly indie rock and jazz and it's so stupid but i suppose it's better than eletronica but i mean...so stupid i am amazed i'm not a virgin Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/44084-do-you-enjoy-the-act-of-discussing-music/#findComment-994374 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capsaicin Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 I usually feel fine about discussing music if the person at least knows there's other genres of electronic music other than techno and trance. But holy shit i hate looking through the dance music section, you got to look through a lot of shit to find the good stuff and most record stores organize all electronic music into the small dance/techno section in the corner of the store Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/44084-do-you-enjoy-the-act-of-discussing-music/#findComment-994382 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just like to explain music more by descriptions of the sound rather than a quick genre label. BoC and AE sound nothing alike. Why describe them using the same term?
