tomorrow she is coming over. and i am thinking i put on some music to show her how much better idm and stuff is. she thinks anything electronic is all the same and weird beeps and stuff. but, i am finding it hard to decide what i could play her. all i've got so far is : manitoba - up in flames. i was also thinking some four tet or something; any suggestions? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
venetian snares maybe? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, four tet. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, play her Rounds... that's a nice album... doesn't sound too electronic though... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
prprprprprprefuuzze! i hate to say this, but i'd wager that no matter what you play she'll probably not like it... people make up their minds before they hear electronic music, all too often |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if she's into country you could play "Wide Open Spaces" by Matmos/People Like Us/Wobbly |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
dammit, I need to get some girls coming over to my house... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
but it is all bleeps. i thought you would know that by now. how about lambchop, or calexico? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Throw a house warming party.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, and what's wrong with country music ? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah the matmos one would be good... also maybe the new books album.... and i'm sure merzbow and hecker would be right up her alley... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, my house is getting a bit cold... sounds like a top notch idea yo! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
country music is from Satan himself! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
There is good and bad country music, just like with any other music style. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don't know, I find that hard to believe about country... especially the stuff my parents listen to... seriously though, some old country is ok... the newer stuff is just disgusting... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
where does billy ray cyrus fit in? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
lambchop are not disgusting. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh yeah, and another thing: a lot of people dislike any music that doesn't have words in it... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the books, matmos, Chris Clark's Lord of the Dance track, throw in some merzbow and snares then aphex's flim |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, that should keep her away from your house for good! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and what's wrong with bad music? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
just play her your favorite songs... make a compilation cd of your favorites, and see what she thinks... if you choose a bunch of different artists, she's bound to like something... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think you should just let her listen to country which has the potential to be (Johnny Cash) better than most IDM anyway. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Sad but true. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it might be interesting if you'd ask also her to bring her favourite music, and you'd listen to it & would try to be open-minded for it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, pretend to be open-minded about it, and then hammer her over the head with autechre and snares and if she doesn't like it point out how you listened to her shitty country (while secretly wearing headphones) and how awesome it is to be open minded |
||||||||
|
|

Let's be friends. |

quotibg DeadEight: "people make up their minds before they hear electronic music, all too often" same goes the other way around too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
What is your mind set on? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
If it bothers you that much that she loves country music and thinks all electronic music is the same (it would bother the hell out of me), then just tell her she is inferior and that you want her to leave as fast as possible. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
certainly... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

country is so fucking horrible i can't believe it. the lady who has the shift before me always has the country station on the radio. jesus. it is so bad it hurts me. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Like any music there's good country and bad. After having borrowed four country-tinged Gillian Welch albums off a friend I'm fair impressed, and I'm partial to the odd Handsome Family track now and again. Equally at home with 'em as with Autechre and yon Snares. Instead of pretending to be open minded, actually be open minded. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
right, its settled then. i'll look into some matmos, and i will definitely play her: four tet - rounds and manitoba - up in flames :) btw i just rolled 3 primo joints for the weekend :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
sorry i'm very tired, don't understand your question :) "people make up their minds before they hear [other kind of music], all too often" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"But I am open-minded ! I listen to highly experimental electronic music, not that pop-music crap that the masses love." |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Oh, and maybe Ulrich Schnauss. Hes pretty tame. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's okay, answer tomorrow.... g'night. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
eh probably i'll understand even less tomorrow... nght JD. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if you're going to play her matmos you must get "Wide Open Spaces". there's more country on this album than electronica, seriously. oh, yeah. joints...joints are great! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I liked that metallica song "mama said" and that's pretty close to country |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

I thought they were tampons. Can you smoke tampons ? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
awfully small for tampons don't you think?!?!? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

Yes, indeed, but I'm tired. And, um, what do I know, "I don't even have a computer". |
