Hip Hop is dead?

>To be clear, hip-hop is still the most listened-to genre of music by far, and it’s still growing. According to Luminate, it has a 26.8% share of U.S. recorded music consumption; the next closest genre is rock at 20%. But that hip-hop number was 27.7% in 2021 and reached a peak of 28.2% in 2020. After a heightened growth period in the 2010s, hip-hop’s growth has slowed down.

What's up? Hip hop only had 1 album in the top 10 this year, rappers tours are getting cancelled, most mainstream rappers are dropping trash albums?

Is hip hop declining in popularity? and if so why? is it tiktok making pop/kpop popular? or is it just running out of creative juice as a genre?

Krautrock was anti-DDR propaganda?

I've seen this theory on 4/mu/ that krautrock was promoted by the British music press during the 70s to show the superiority of West Germany over East Germany, which is funny considering a lot of the bands were far-left themselves (CAN is an abbreviation for "communism, anarchism, nihilism").

CU-CU-CU-CUMBIA (wipi!)

FUCK IT, cumbia thread

I can't resist wanting to dance to cumbia (I can't dance, yet). It often has two of my favorite instruments, trumpets and accordion. And many cumbias have a melancholic or sad melody, in my opinion, which I love as well. But every single one of them makes me wanna DANCE.

It's kinda sad that cumbia is seen more as a meme or liked ironically by people my age and younger. Nowadays it seems like only older people appreciate it. I just wanna share my love for cumbia.

Lyapis Trubetskoy - Capital

I want some other lefty perspectives on this song.

From my personal interpretation I think the song is trying to criticize leaders who use Marxism as a front while they run there nation in a capitalist manner just as exploitative as nations like the U.S. (I think this is extra evident by the music video) as well as just greed within positions of power in general. The fact it's written and performed by a Belarussian band adds to that as well.

Curious about what others think about it (and if anyone else thinks it's a banger like me).

Great Introductory Music

My taste in music is extremely under developed/"uncultured"/shallow because I struggle with music alot. I can only listen to music if I'm doing a activity, it I sit down and try to listen I feel genuine pain, which makes it hard for me to pay attention to lyrics.

It's also hard to pay attention to the lyrics since:
1) They never feel worth it to pay attention to, especially the more a song sounds good, (for some reason it seems like no song can accomplish both). Ex: I had a genuine terrible time with rage against the machine and Daughters because the sound completely negated any enjoyment I had paying attention to their lyrics.
2) It seems like when listening to a song, all you're actually suppose to do is feel and not think about it much, basically the song being nothing but a vibe machine, (I'm basing this off of a study where 70% of people listen to music to just remember the past). Which is extremely contradictory to how people talk about music, (especially music nerds).

So is there any ultra master peace albums/songs you guys can recommend that can completely change my opinion? To make it easy to recommend, I mostly listen to anime and video game music, with random pop songs here and there.

Music Festivals

What do music festivals in a future socialist society look like?

The first of the modern music festivals, Woodstock, was held the year after the '68 uprisings in Chicago. Hippies and socialist activists protested the Democratic Party's national convention, and were brutally suppressed by police. The next year, Woodstock takes place, and the whole of mainstream society seems to have completely erased the violence in Chicago. How many people who are interested in festivals understand this historical context? Is it relevant to music festivals moving forward?

But regardless, 21st century music festivals are much different than the original Woodstock. For one, Woodstock as an institution was basically killed in 1999. Y2k is basically post-Woodstock. But most music festivals have been criticized as being highly consumerist. Ultra Music Fest, Tomorrowland, EDC, Coachella, etc.

How would a socialist music festival work? If currency is involved, how would that work?

Ishkur is the only guy who has never ever had any cringe takes when it comes to electronic music. There, I said it. I can deny it no longer. Whatever style he shits on is always cheesy manufactured cringe anyway. The dude is based, I stand by my words.

Also, his knowledge of electronic music styles is so precise that I've never seen any classification I would object to. He even knows about such niche shit as Belgian techno. Those who aren't technoheads don't know what the fuck this is but once you hear it the sound becomes instantly recognizeable.

Grunge

>Grunge (sometimes referred to as the Seattle sound) is an alternative rock genre and subculture that emerged during the mid-1980s in the American Pacific Northwest state of Washington, particularly in Seattle and nearby towns. Grunge fuses elements of punk rock and heavy metal, but without punk's structure and speed. The genre featured the distorted electric guitar sound used in both genres, although some bands performed with more emphasis on one or the other. Like these genres, grunge typically uses electric guitar, bass guitar, drums and vocals. Grunge also incorporates influences from indie rock bands such as Sonic Youth. Lyrics are typically angst-filled and introspective, often addressing themes such as social alienation, self-doubt, abuse, neglect, betrayal, social and emotional isolation, addiction, psychological trauma and a desire for freedom.

Post any grunge tune (largely 80s/90s). No post grunge

Ph-ph-ph-phases

what were your musical "phases" you went through at various ages? This is kind of a cringe confessional thread, but I'm too old to be ashamed of my proclivities.

i notice a lot of people have "phases" they go through, but they're not consistent. Sometimes the phases are based on things like genres, while other times they're based on things like instrumentation, lyrics, timbre, etc.

When I was single digit age I didn't listen to any music on purpose. Basically my entire musical diet was SNES era video game music. Shit like the Donkey Kong Country soundtrack.

Then I had what I would call the "babby's first mp3 player" where I basically downloaded all the dadrock music older wyboyz were into: Metallica, Led Zeppelin, that kinda thing. At this point I shifted into the "obsessed with music that is hard to play." phase. Sax solos, guitar solos, banjo solos, piano solos, harpsichord solos, accordion solos, anything that "shreds." Doesn't matter what genre. Then I had the "weed lmao liberal hipster" phase, where I was in high school and hotboxing with friends a lot and listening to late 00s shit like Decemberists, Neutral Milk Hotel, yada yada.

Then I had the "slow jams discovery" phase where I started to care more about the "texture" of music and less about how hard it was to play, or how impressive the solos sounded. This coincided with a lot of sex having and more weed smoking throughout my college days. Then I stepped back from music altogether and became an "audiobooks and radio drama" guy, first with a focus on fictional literary classics, and then moving over to nonfiction and political theory, approaching 30.

Anyone else go through similar phases? What were your "phases" like?

Footwork/Juke/Baltimore club/Jersey Club

This style of dance music has been having a slight resurgence the past few years online and on east coast/midwest US club circuits
>Footwork, also called juke, footwork/juke or Chicago juke, is a genre of electronic music derived from ghetto house with elements of hip hop, first appearing in Chicago in the late 1990s. The music style evolved from the earlier, rapid rhythms of ghetto house, a change pioneered by RP Boo. It may draw from the rapid rhythms and sub-bass frequencies of drum & bass. Tracks also frequently feature heavily syncopated samples from rap, pop and other sources, and are often around 160 bpm.

No lord in the heavens made this cosmos,
No worldly lord the prosperity of humankind.
The cosmos is an eternal evolution of the material,
This material shaped for mankind's use by many a laborer.
The work of your hands, laborer, was mankind's yesterday.
On your hands also rests tomorrow.
When the temple of Solomon was being built by an army of laboring
Slaves, meanwhile Solomon was inside
His palace, solving the quarrels of wives.
When the nobleman in France was cursing his failed expedition to
The Russian land, thousands of wives wept for their fallen husbands.
The work of your hands, laborer,
Were the treasures of the lords,
But inside your fist now grows a different kind of tomorrow.
Your hands built the factories and the mines of the land.
Where from dawn to dusk you labor on,
Watch the treasures get carried away.
But if your hands stops laboring, the chimneys go cold,
The machines standing as idle as those who you labor for.
The work of your hands, laborer,
Are the treasures of the lords,
And only your hands can act to bring forth justice.
But for the exploiter,
You alone are not enough, for he will always be hunting on.
And if he meets resistance, he'll point his guns at your brothers.
And when you rise against injustice,
You'll quickly find out,
The exploiter is not just a leech but also a murderer.
Your hands once build the tombs of the Pharaohs.
Yet to be dug is the grave for the exploiters of this entire world.
Inside your fist lies a seed to your freedom eternal.
And it'll once grow into a forest that covers out all injustices.

Orishas are a Cuban hip hop group from Havana, Cuba, founded in 1999. The group was first called "Amenaza", "threat" or "menace" in Spanish, and appealed to the Cuban youth. The choice of this name for the hip hop group is a way of creating a direct link between this band and the African diaspora. The group is based in France where they made a deal with a record company, although they visit Cuba frequently. In 1999 Fidel Castro threw a party for them and had a meeting with all the musicians. It was the first time the Cuban government showed support for hip hop music. The group was and still is popular in Europe (especially France, Italy, Spain and Portugal) and Latin America.

Denpa music thread

Denpa(電波) is a Japanese subculture characterized by bizarre and eerie themes. It originally began as a derogative term for mentally deranged behavior, but over the 1990s was adapted by otaku into their culture. In part, through artistic expression within manga, anime and visual novels, and also separately as a genre of cute and quirky music.

Trap music is worthless reactionary garbage. It's the most commodified and artless "music" out there, basically a stripped down standardized form consisting of a minimalist 4/4 loop of booming bass sounds and rattling snares and hi-hats along with a cheesy melody made with a preset from some well-known DAW plug-in. Its lyrical content is sparse and filled with chauvinistic brags mixing classism, petty-capitalist hustle, misogyny, racism and other social garbage. Its main audience is suburbanites (most of them white) who are attracted to its singularly reactionary, violent content and see it as a soundtrack to an essentially military/fascist worldview that casts those who can violently seize power as the rightful overlords of those who can't.

Songs that completely give you the opposite feeling/effect when listened to

I fucking hate this song growing up and I never could figure out why. Now that I have grown up, I understand why I hate it.

This song is suppose to be this extremely innocent and cutesy song, but it's such a high level of innocence and happiness that the only way to achieve it is to have a full grasp of the other side of the coin.

To state this in another way, this song can only be written by a child rapist.

To go further on: it's a song reaching out for the past, one of the whitest sounding song, crying back to going back to the past. What other analysis is there other than the it being a cry out for a white ethnostate? I swear at 1:15 I can literally hear the power point presentation of why we need to kill the "monkeys".

Red Metal

As an avid listener of metal, something that frustrates me is the prevalence of chuds and reactionaries in metal (especially black metal). The visibility of guys like Varg and Famine of Peste Noire infamy has colored the public perception of extreme metal as being the domain of edgelord fascists. What are some metal groups that could be said to be socialist, anarchist, or leftist in some manner?

To start things off, I'd highly recommend the Panopticon album "Kentucky," which is a BM album about the state's history with labor organizing among coal miners, as well as the coal industry's destruction of the state's natural beauty. It's not a perfect album by any means but the way it mixes BM with bluegrass is cool, plus it has an incredibly redpilled message.

Metric modulations and tempo changes

Okay guys, I have a question for any musicians or people who are good at maths (ideally both).

I was trying to figure out a metric modulation in the song Ancient Temperament by Eidola. The first section (approx 2:58 in the video) is in 6/8, and it then goes into a section in 4/4 . However, if you keep tapping the 8th notes from the previous time signature you end up with a 3/2 polyrhythm, which means that there is not only a time sig change but a tempo change. What's more, if you clap that 3/2 polyrhythm through the 4/4 section, you will find that it changes back to 6/8 at the previous tempo (around 3:28), and you're then clapping 8th notes as you were before.

I managed to figure out that if the first section in 6/8 is at 90bpm, then next in 4/4 must be 126bpm. The problem is… I have no idea how I managed to figure that out. I've double checked my maths, and I did the sums wrong, but somehow still ended up blundering into the correct answer.

I can also even tell you that you could play half note triplets in 4/4 at 225bpm and get the same pulse, but again, I have no idea how I managed to figure that out. I've been puzzling over this since just after I figured it out the first time around, and I can't even understand how I came to the conclusions I came to.

How would you go about figuring out this tempo change, /music/?

Fretless bass

Have you ever played a fretless bass? If so, how what it? Do you like the "mwah" sound of it? Is it worth getting one? Who is your favorite fretless bass player? Mick Karn is the best for me personally (>inb4 Jaco).
I kinda want to buy one because you can be more free tonally like in vid related, but I'm afraid I wouldn't like it that much after the purchase because the "mwah" is a bit memey if you aren't a skilled player, and I also probably won't be able to play this while drunk, so I guess I should try to find a normal good-quality P/J bass instead so I can play with friends. Still a neat way to play bass if you aren't constrained by money.

Help to find a song/band

I've completely forgotten the name of a band/ song.

I know this info about them:

I'd describe them as sort experimentalish indie rock

The song I'm thinking of has the hook "everytime you call I'll take it back" which is repeated over and over

One of their albums has a cover which is a dude in a wedding dress.

another song has the hook something like "if you listen you will hear the sound right there in my mind…mind" and its got a sort of fast frenetic vaudevilley piano riff underneath

Eastern fascist music is better than Western fascist music

Before any autist spergs out, no I'm not a fascist, I'm not saying fascism is good or anything like that. This is about the music they make (or quasi-fascists, nationalists, etc). I think we can all agree that the typical fascist music we are used to is awful. The music made by Western fascists such as in Nazi Germany or Francoist Spain is more often than not very boring, uninspiring, and repetitive. All those Nazi miltiary marches sound the same, they're all quite mediocre.

Horst Wessel Lied sucks ass, Erika, which is a song wehraboos soyface all over (no clue why) is also very mediocre, I don't understand how anyone could enjoy that song. Most Nazi songs are like this. Cara al Sol, a fascist anthem of the Francoists, is genuinely one of the worst songs I've ever heard. Look it up to see for yourself. And yes I know by saying Western fascists I'm generalizing a lot, but idgaf, the impression I get from them is that all their songs are very similar, bland military shit.

Now let's take a look at Eastern fascists, specifically from the Balkans (yes I know the Balkans are not Eastern Europe but it's not Western Europe either, ergo they go into the broader "Eastern world" for this analysis), from the Middle East, and the Caucasus.

Two Serbian songs I'd like to show you guys, I know most of you are already very familiar with turbofolk but first check out this Chetnik song, the original lyrics apparently were written in 1941 iirc but this version idk what year it's from
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ptfEU4KghHw&ab

There's something about this song. It's weirdly inspiring in a way, it has a good melody, good voice, overall pretty good song.

And coming back to turbofolk, I also want to post this shit. You all probably know this song by now, It's far more rightoid and unapolegitically so but it's still a good song imo. Again goes to show that Serbian rightwingers for whatever reason actually make good music, as opposed to other European rightoids, particularly Western Europeans
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETQmQ1Ixv5Y&ab

Moving on to the next song, a Turkish fascist song from the Grey Wolves. Again with this one, just like the first Chetnik song, this one inspires you. The melody, rhythm, it makes you want to go and fight for Turkey. I'm going to assume the translated lyrics are not the best so we can only base ourselves off of the vocals but they don't dissappoint. Can't really describe it any further, it's just a really good song imo.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4W2rBYmbY6w

For the last song, an Azeri song about, I'm assuming after looking at some translated lyrics, Karabakh belonging to Azerbaiyan or some shit like that, you know typical blood and soil shit. I don't know how to describe this song properly, it's a rap but also has a very nice melody and rhythm, can't really elaborate further than that
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mDc6iw2EeJs

To conclude this post, besides sharing some songs I think are pretty good, I wanted to see if we could have a discussion as to why these songs are better than typical fascist/quasi-fascist music. Is it actually a thing about Eastern vs Western fascism? Or something unrelated to the actual content of the songs/their creators?

As a black man, I find soft rock to be far more romantic than urban R&B.

I find early urban R&B (1984-1994) to be too flirty and/or too preachy.

Soft rock, the instrumentation is all organic. You can hear the soft earthy tones of the acoustic guitar along side the electric guitar with the piano and woodwind instruments playing alongside in the background. It's soft and sweet while being equally potent.
The lyrics are sincere and humble but never sycophantic

It's an official AU that I am a 1970s soft rock/R&B/jazz fusion musician with an ensemble.
One of my albums is gonna be a literal symphonic suite with a twist of jazz, rock and funk.

Helen Love is Love – please check out this Welsh bubblegum punk-rock indie band that I like

The 3-people band consists of Helen Love – the person, the band’s titular vocalist/songwriter, Sheena on guitar, and rotating members on keyboards (used to be Roxy, then Mark, now it is Ricardo Autobahn). The first Helen Love song I’ve heard is probably “Debbie Loves Joey" – and I hope this amazing tune set the stage for the rest of this post.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9aCsTOKjsaY

“Debbie Loves Joey” perfectly capture the essence of Helen Love, which is a twee, lo-fi (with regards to production quality, not hip-hop beats), bubblegum pop paean (it’s a real word – look it up) song referencing Joey Ramone and innocent teenage hot summer days. Helen Love (the persona) lives in world of perpetual summer filled with teens chewing bubblegums, listening to the MC5, LOVE; KISS; RUN; SING; SHOUT; JUMP, swimming in Swansea Bay, dancing in punk-rock discotheque with glitters, playing Super Kay guitars. This humorous, self-aware, teenage twee, anti-grow up energy is the kind of energy that is conveyed through their songs.

Artists You Thought Were Important But Are Actually DOA

>struggle through your youth
>think you've got something in common with others
>time passes, inevitably
>you find out your subculture actually just encapsulated a tiny number of people
>10 years on, 5000 views on your subculture's iconic song
>nobody else can relate to your experience
>you hate everyone else you came up with due to drugs and drama
>turns out your experience was, in fact, rather unique, and now there is nobody else to talk to about it
Damn, I thought it was more than just us. This isn't the first time I searched something from when I was younger and got a similar response so I thought it would make a thread. It wasn't about being unique or anything pretentious, we had just dragged ourselves in with each other and thought it must be the same elsewhere. I hate that I can't stand them anymore, and I hate that I'm alone now with my shitty unique subculture that nobody gets. What I'm trying to say is that I'm mad as fuck that nobody remembers important parts of my life, and nobody cares. I thought I would have someone to talk to about the drugs and the music of my time but there just… isn't. It turns out the only people who cared were me and some people who don't make an impact on anything. Did nobody else end up in this situation thinking that their dumb music was the next big thing?

Is this such a weird thing? At the dawn of the internet it felt like we were going to expand forever, but now it seems like nothing has expanded at all and numbers have only increased in a certain place. What a sad fucking place the internet turned out to be, I thought it would bring more people together. The world is vastly more connected than it was a decade ago, but it has never felt so lonely. It feels like being in an American shopping mall where you have no money.

Does anyone else relate? Maybe I am not the only one who searches up obscure artists to find out that they are in fact dead and failed.

Anyway, post artists who you thought were great but never achieved anything.

Rush Thread

Just getting into Rush, particularly the song Subdivisions:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EYYdQB0mkEU

anybody a big Rush head know which songs are same/ similar? Or just good in general?

This songs called working man, with leftist themes:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IrxzRFj03Ro

"I get up at seven, yeah,
and I go to work at nine.
I got no time for livin’.
Yes, I’m workin’ all the time.

It seems to me
I could live my life
a lot better than I think I am.
I guess that’s why they call me,
they call me the workin’ man."

They have a huge amount of material so knowing what to avoid or what certain stuff is like would be great

Lyrics to Subdivisions with also vaguely leftist themes:

Sprawling on the fringes of the city
In geometric order
An insulated border
In between the bright lights
And the far unlit unknown

Growing up it all seems so one-sided
Opinions all provided
The future pre-decided
Detached and subdivided
In the mass production zone

Nowhere is the dreamer
Or the misfit so alone

Subdivisions —
In the high school halls
In the shopping malls
Conform or be cast out
Subdivisions —
In the basement bars
In the backs of cars
Be cool or be cast out
Any escape might help to smooth
The unattractive truth
But the suburbs have no charms to soothe
The restless dreams of youth

Drawn like moths we drift into the city
The timeless old attraction
Cruising for the action
Lit up like a firefly
Just to feel the living night

Some will sell their dreams for small desires
Or lose the race to rats
Get caught in ticking traps
And start to dream of somewhere
To relax their restless flight

Somewhere out of a memory
Of lighted streets on quiet nights…

The essence of Boomer rock is simple in it's content. Catchy riffs, guitar solos, screaming singers, and long hair. It was the ruling ideology that considered them a danger to the youth, and opened the door for more edgy and arguably harmful music in the future, not the bands themselves. The satanic imagery was just for record sales, and not intended to do anything but make more money. It was the ruling class' puritanism that blew the doors open for future harmful musical acts like NWA and 2 Live Crew. The ruling class showed them that having an explicit Parental Advisory warning on the album was good for business.

Prior to the British invasion, the main rock bands of the time involved a single frontman, e.g. Elvis, Chuck Berry, Buddy Holly, etc, while the rest of the band were just background members providing accompaniment.
However, when the Beatles started becoming popular, they showed the English speaking world that being a rock band didn't just mean getting underpaid and underexposed, all 4 of the Beatles were getting popularity.
Every Beatle had a cult of teenage girls wishing to have babies with them, every Beatle could be recognized in public and start a mini riot just by virtue of being in a popular rock band.

Clearly, this was highly influential on the future of rock music. Every musician that grew up in this era of the late 50s and early 60s saw this as an opportunity. Even if they didn't like the lovey dovey music the boy band was making, they saw the material gains and influence of the format. Other English bands started imitating the format, and developing their own style.

Bands like Led Zeppelin, The Who, Deep Purple, The Rolling Stones, Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd, Fleetwood Mac, all copied the format of the Beatles, but developed their own tone. Drums, bass, lead guitar (and solos), and finally lyrics. Every member had a purpose, every member had an instrument. As technology progressed, they started adding on-the-fly distortions, through guitar pedals.

A major theme of Boomer rock is the lyrical content. Bands leaned heavily into sex, drugs, and living fast. This can be seen as a reaction to the Vietnam war, as a reaction to the ruling ideology of old white puritan politicians and their incessant need to remind everyone younger how good they have it compared to their youth. It is ironic that these same boomers are now in power, and are almost indistinguishable from their predecessors.
Another theme of early Boomer rock is, surprisingly, Lord of the Rings. Maybe these musicians saw the Rankin Bass productions or read J.R.R. Tolkien in school, because it's undeniable that Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath were inspired by the fantastical descriptions of the Misty Mountains or hermetic wise old men, in songs like Ramble On and The Wizard.

>Mine's a tale that can't be told, my freedom I hold dear

>How years ago in days of old, when magic filled the air
>'Twas in the darkest depths of Mordor, I met a girl so fair
>But Gollum, and the evil one crept up and slipped away with her
>Her, her, yeah

<Misty morning, clouds in the sky

<Without warning, a wizard walks by
<Casting his shadow, weaving his spell
<Long grey cloak, tinkling bell
<Never talking
<Just keeps walking
<Spreading his magic

Also as a reaction to the older generation demanding christian values and uniformity, they started adopting satanic imagery. According to the Boomers freaking out about Harry Potter, wizardry and satanism isn't that big of a leap.

Even though they used blatant satanic imagery, and promoted myths like "the tritone was considered the devil's chord in medieval Europe" in interviews, many of these pioneers were actually quite Christian. If the politicians of the time had actually read the lyrics to these "satanic" songs, they would realize that it was just a marketing ploy. The moral panic did nothing but put these bands even further into the spotlight, having them appear before congress and explain themselves is great publicity, especially for the edgy teens they were targeting.
