Skrillex - Discuss, Debate, Praise, Hate

StephenG, please explain your oh-so-empirical criteria for what defines "objectively good music". I'm genuinely curious.

And while you're at it, please elaborate about how any work of any form of art can be objectively better.

Ha, that's pretty bad. At least it's positive, though. Imma have to do better than this.

This blog works much better as a parody of the Skrillex craze/love/hate. Imma go with that.

See: collabs thread. I clearly said a number of times that "good" "bad" and "better" are all subjective. Quality is not.

Next, you are going to tell me VHS is better than Blu-Ray and you can't measure quality there either.

Have you ever heard of 1080p definition for TV?

Nevermind. Explaining how you can quantify quality to someone like you is like pulling teeth. It's so fucking painful.

That's cause it's a shitty example of a hellfish tune.

Quality is definitely subjective there. VHS Head's music is made entirely with samples from VHS b-movies.

Subjectively controversial, this topic is.

lol I see what you did there mr Oscillik boss. :cerious:

All music should be judged at events like dog shows.

Then only the purest breeds would rise to the top.

Yeah...

I don't think that would make music very enjoyable.

What else can we talk about to make this thread reach 100 pages?

I want to see the names of the entries.

This would be, like, the best gig ever.

It's all about the quality, the quality would rise through like shining beacons.

We could judge music on how healthy the gums, and how shapely the fetlock.

what about the sheen of their coat? :cerious:

Is that part of your criteria for quality?

If so, we'll stick it in!

I would suggest gait too

And spectrum

I understand how Bluray is better than VHS, but I don't, ehhh never mind, I was just trying to stoke your rage. My bad.
