I strongly suspect, I wouldn’t like whatever „music“ anon listens to either

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 38 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I feel like they'd say their favorite genre is "anime soundtracks"

[–] scytale@piefed.zip 22 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (3 children)

To be fair, there ARE great anime soundtracks out there. They get actual bands/musicians to make them. But yes, anon probably has shit taste in music.

[–] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Ther's Yoko Kano, Nujabes, Tsuneo Imahori... people like that...

... and then theres 192 bpm J-Pop song #4838573.

And then of course there's Jojo, where... basically half or more of the characters just are named after, or a pun on classic rock bands or songs.

Whole wide spectrum out there, but there certainly is a lot of formulaic slop.

I definitely agree (RIP Nujabes)

More of a joke about someone calling "anime soundtracks" a genre because they're musically uncultured. I don't even like The Doors lol

Probably just a soundtrack of assorted hentai moans.

[–] trashgirlfriend@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I can't believe people are still disparaging gooncore as a genre in 2025 :^(

Well they're on 4chan so they probably listen to death grips and neutral milk hotel.

CIA funded circus music, lol. It all makes sense now

[–] semisimian@startrek.website 28 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Hey man, let's take some poorly written beat poetry and put it over mediocre guitar compositions. Then we can take a talented keyboardist but make him play the shittiest sounding electric organ. And we can make sure the recording makes it all sound like a cat and some tin cans in a dryer.

[–] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 33 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (3 children)

I'm partial to talented keyboardists playing shitty sounding electric organs myself. Shoutout to Deep Purple.

[–] accideath@feddit.org 14 points 1 month ago (1 children)

There are far too few shitty sounding electric organs in modern music.

Didn't Jon Lord use a Hammond organ? One of the best sounding instruments ever.

[–] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Yes but after amp and distortion it sounds like a cyber cabaret church and I love it. He also used an electric harpsichord for some songs, another awesome sounding instrument

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

A hammond tearing through a Marshall stack is a statement.

Pinhead anon has no talent.

[–] Substance_P@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Absolutely, one of the best organ grooves in my opinion came from Jon Lord's Hammond C3 organ on "Lazy", specifically from the album Made in Japan. Boomer gold!

the organ is what makes it good for me :'(

[–] XTL@sopuli.xyz 7 points 1 month ago

I guess that's literally what she said.

[–] daggermoon@lemmy.world 27 points 1 month ago

Don't ever shit talk The Doors

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 24 points 1 month ago (5 children)

Yeah but you gotta do a bong rip as a big Midwestern storm approaches while listening to riders on the storm

Still better than anything with autotune.

[–] FreeAZ@sopuli.xyz 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The vast majority of songs these days use autotune, you just can't hear it because it's being used properly to fix when the singer is slightly off key.

The "autotune" sound only happens when the artist is purposefully singing off key.

[–] bluesheep@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (2 children)

Almost true. The "autotune effect" only appears if you dial the knobs all the way up when setting up the effect. But you are correct that properly used autotune is pretty much not noticeable.

Using autotune also does not automatically make you a bad singer. T-Pain is very known for the autotune effect he uses on his vocals, but he is an amazing singer even without using it.

I'm going to have to steal that first line for describing the next thing I suspect of being funded by the CIA.

[–] eestileib@lemmy.blahaj.zone 15 points 1 month ago (14 children)

Yeah the Doors had great songs and long shit songs, like every band.

The Beatles had long shit songs, Led Zeppelin, Kanye, Gustav Mahler...

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Which long songs by Pink Floyd are shitty? 🤔

[–] Peruvian_Skies@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I'm not especially fond of Several Species of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together In A Cave And Grooving With A Pict.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 5 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I had to look up if that was even a real song. 🤣

Looking at the lyrics I can already tell I am not gonna like it, despite that title definitely being right up my alley.

I appreciate this post, as I hate the Doors.

I am drunk, I am nobody. I am drunk, I am famous. I am drunk, I am dead.

In the words of the immortal Kids in the Hall,

"Doors fans aren't made, they are born."

And of course

"The gypsies had no homes, the Doors had no bass. But don't let that scare you my friend, let that liberate you!"

[–] AEGIS2317@feddit.org 9 points 1 month ago

I love the doors, but this gave me a good laugh

How dare you.

[–] manuallybreathing@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 month ago

Im sure the creeps on 4chan would love all these older musicians if they took the time to read about them, and how they were basically all abusing kids

[–] A_norny_mousse@feddit.org 6 points 1 month ago

That's what they used to say about The Doors way back then, too.
