my dad keeps asking me "whats the difference between what you listen to, and New Age music." and i dont know what to tell him.... anyone? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
heh i dunno don't ask me...... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
when i think new age... i think dork when i think of "IDM" or whatever, i think cool but i dont think thats a good argument |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hehe |
||||||||
|
|

well...new age music tends to be on the cheesy side..its like watered down ambient... typically takes more influence from celtic and or native american music it also usually isnt so beat-oriented (some of it has a cheesy hip hop or house beat see: enigma) |

hahah it's pretty sad when your dad likes hipper music than you do. "son, why are you listening to new age, are you some kind of fag?" "dad, this is boards of canada!!! they're idm/ambient, on warp records!" "sounds like some pansy shit to me, whatever happened to balls out rock & roll?" "that's it, i'm going to my room - and taking my x-box with me! *SLAM!*" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
doesn't new age music usually have some sort of pansy pagan connotations like getting in touch with the earth goddess and stuff? I think it tends to use a lot of corny nature sounds, too. |

yeah new age music is "spiritual journey" shit that goes on and on with some theme like dream warrior o rinner goddess - my mum listens to it - usually for meditation - there is nothing good about it at all and it has nothing to d woith the music you lsiten to |
||||||||
|
|

innovative communication is 1 of fav new age music labels they made so many dope albumns. narada mystique is a good 1 to but they didnt have very many releases (the rest of narada is not that good but theres some ok stuff from narada equinoxe but u know theres always more dope new age music out there cuz lots of it was released just by guys who made up there own labels or just put it out themselfs and theres no way 2 know whats good and not unless u find it by chance and listen 2 it 2 see |

mind's eye on cd/vhs was the shit when i was like 10 in fact this pretty much nails my point -- see post #02451748 |

well just cuz UR old doesnt mean every1 else isnt |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
and you aren't living in the 90s. get real |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

there are really a couple conflated points in here point 1: new age has not aged well. fits, given it's no longer new. point 2: not all new age is cheesy shite, just 95% of it. so, i see no reason to big it up as a genre, but if you feel like pulling out that 5% for me i'll listen to a mix you do |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
You forgot point 3: DUBturbo |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i bet ppl use 2 think italo was chesy shite but now its a ledgendery repected genere. i think ppl will come around on new age in time also i am definitly gonna make a dope new new age mix sometime but in the mean time i did one already last year called BIRTH OF A NEW AGE it has alot of dope new age songs but i know know i could make a way better 1 now cuz i discoverd lots more dope new age music since then |

im claiming the thread 2 me |

son, best check yo 'tude before i check yo ass out |

new age is boring music made in digital performer italo disco is raw music made with crumar bit 01 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i dunno how its made but its NOT BORING unless u dont pay attention 2 it, i think most new age artits are better composers then most idm artists, at least they have more in depth structures in there songs |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that's retarded rationale. complexity does not automatically equate to quality, and if you think it does you're probably some slack-jawed philistine. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
duh but im saying if ur listening 2 music 1 thing u can listen 4 is the song structure and new age is more rewarding then idm if ur listening 4 that |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
but theres new age artists who make uncomplex music and theres idm artist who make songs that are more then 2 chords repeated for the whole song also im just saying IN GENERAL |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if somethings good it can be repeated and its still good tho like that thomas dolby minds eye song i posted |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the last guy to mention thomas dolby to me was an irish real estate agent who asked me if i liked "trance" after i told him i made electronic music |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what did u say |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"trance" is pretty much just a word that means "that music with the stab chords" to most people. "new age" is beach music to those same people. both genres are stuffed to the brim with bargain-bin crap, and i was never interested enough in either genre to dig through all the poo looking for a peanut |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i told him i thought astral projection was pretty good that's when he tangented to to dolby |
