[@jennifergraceh]

He’s been around for a while, but one of my all time favorite artists is Sufjan Stevens, particularly the song, “To Be Alone With You” as well as “Casamir Pulaski Day” and a lot of his older stuff. I haven’t been keeping up with much of his recent stuff but he’s one of those artists whose music just sticks with you it’s so hauntingly beautiful. The weirdest thing, by far, is that I found out entirely by chance that he is one of my best friends from my hometown’s uncle, which I think is just a bizarre coincidence!

[@oldgoat381]

I always hated the idea that there's only the main archetypes of music because it's so massively reductive when you realise there's musical concepts outside of Western Music (and even within it) that completely negate the idea. It's also used hugely by elitist viewpoints; you could consider Liszt's works of preserving folk music as classical music but it can easily fit under folk music because that's where it's sourced from, jazz is completely rooted in being a folk music of America, but also becoming the popular music of the 20th century, and often containing the pop music of the early 20th century, even going so far as to influence the classical music of the 20th century. The musical archetypes aren't good beyond giving an idea of a handful of disciplines that miss out on any nuance.

[@andrewfortmusic]

Musicians truly are either terrible people or amazing people. I'm privileged to know lots and lots of good ones :) In my observation, the musician's character becomes more evident from his/her motivations. Money? Oof. Fame? Probably not going to work out. Impressing people? Vain and short-sighted. Self-expression? Can go either way. But when you find a musician who is passionate about music for its own sake, or for the purpose of serving, empowering, connecting with, and showing love to people, and doing it excellently? That's a person made of gold right there.

@@jayall00 There is practically infinite music being made every single day, and we no longer are limited by what record labels put on the radio or sell physical media of. if you cant find a single modern artist you like, you probably haven't looked hard enough. add onto that that the old bands you do like, you have immediate access to their entire discography from anywhere at any time. hell you can probably even find demo tapes some fan dug up. Even if 90% of modern music was the worst song ever made, we'd still live in the best time for music to date.

[@jayall00]

@@GhostGlitch. of course we live in a time where music is most accessible. That doesn’t mean it’s better. Todays music in general is subpar, and that’s after countless hours of searching for a band that can reach even the likes of a boring 70’s rock band. The most hard rock band today is greta van fleet. And that’s because it’s the only band that can (or properly knows how to) let loose and jam out in a hard rock style and improvise. The only active jam band I know of is Goose, carrying where phish and Grateful Dead left off. These two bands are amazing, but if this were the 70’s, this stuff would be found in the back of an alleyway, and it would be mainstream. There’s not enough bands like them that are even honestly trying to make good music. Today people are too afraid to put their volume knob past 4/10 (thats a whole other dilemma). There’s less desire or creative spark for music anymore, its all just production or for money. People are afraid of the sound of tubes and have ditched equipment that actually makes for a decent sound whether live or in studio. I’m not just an angry boomer either, I’m in my 20’s

It's getting harder and harder for your music to be noticed nowadays because you're not only competing against all the other acts/artists out there making music foday... you're working for attention against essentially all artists across decades thanks to the influx of music streaming. An obscene number of streams are for older songs, not newer ones. It's a tough spot for artists today!

[@goldenageofdinosaurs7192]

Absolutely. It’s also harder to find music, especially if you don’t have hours a week to go deep diving into the rabbit hole.

I have to say, I love when you talk about Ed Sheeran and just dunking him hard, especially since I’ve had those exact thoughts too. I even went to one of his concerts. Suffice it to say, I won’t be going to another one of his soon

[@biggtugg]

Really??? I heard he’s actually really good live. I just rip on him cus I’m a fan of his, but sorry to hear he sucked eggs for you

[@LuigiBoi87]

@@biggtugg Nah, I enjoy his music pretty good too, I’m just not a fan of concerts and going to them. Also, I will say that I am one of those people who sing really well (without taking any classes), but I’ve really opened up about it and now I’m karaoke worthy!

Actually in the 2020s you hear tons of kids saying "music today sucks". Some decades just have worse music.

8:47 Eric nakassa's music makes me feel nostalgia, I have no idea why.

The hometown white rapper thing is super accurate. someone that i knew in highschool thought he was the shit. He literally put up a song on soundcloud called The Shit. He claimed that he could freestyle rap, and after asking for prompts, he would then spend five minutes coming up with a rap on his notepad. He was not a good person and that has absolutely nothing to do with him believing that he can rap.

For the guitar players out there, David Maxim Miccic is a PHENOMENAL artist! 500 seconds before sunset is such a beautiful song.

[@MichaelGMoney]

Another great song is Living Room off his album Who Bit The Moon

Big Tugg is such an honest content creator that feels like a breath of fresh air compared to almost every single KZbinr out their rn. Also you should make a video we’re you try to make horrible foods from Zach Choi or something like that
