Okay perhaps that's a bit of a harsh statement but I just don't get it. I mean at all. Fucking RJD2, DJ Shadow and the rest of this genre is so hurting. Boring with a capital fucking B. To me, the beauty of hip hop is a sick MC flowing over a dope beat. Hip hop needs both elements to work IMHO. Anyone with me? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

Generally 'a sick MC flowing over it' is what makes me dislike hip-hop. And that's probably why I think most instrumental hiphop is boring, and there are only a few that I like, such as Prefuse 73, Autechre (HAH!), uh, |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I like it. So eff you! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I prefer instrumental hip-hop, vocals spoil it for me, but I tend to call it trip-hop then anyway. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
see. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you've come to the wrong forum! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
told you..... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you suck |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
No doubt. :) But honestly when I hang out with friends and they put that shit on, it makes me want to give up on music altogether. I wonder if my friends think Autechre is this trite. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm going to amend what I said, I DO like vocals when they've been messed about with, like some of the things Prefuse 73,Machine Drum and Funkstorung have done. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ha! Perhaps I hitting too close to home. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
haha probably |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
check climber "downtown loop" and ammoncontact and then say it sucks... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its all good thirdball ; ) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
next time, try an "autechre suck" thread, i'm sure you'll be immensely popular and everyone will like you. |

I love Autechre - among my favs. Don't get me wrong, it's just after hearing this stuff (Instrumental Hip Hop), I can see why people listen to classic rock. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Thanks dude. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

eh? care to elabrate? |

who won the xlt-championships btw? o its them brooth brothers provinding us with their 'if you think our music is generative you're a moron and we'll kill you'-music (new album will be a floppy disk with a program which generates a new tune every time you use it) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
whats wrong with rock music? you snob |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Well I kind of agree about DJ Shadow, he's had his day, I only liked two tracks off his last album, but there's still loads of good stuff out there, surely anyone who uses a sampled breakbeat is dealing with hip-hop in some way and isn't that nearly everyone? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
some instrumental hip hop bores me to tears, and some is absolutely wicked... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i agree with the drummond boy. i was brought up on queen, E.L.O.,floyd etc....still like to hear that shit. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
What's wrong with classic rock, you silly person? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I love classic rock, but heck it gets boring after a while. I'm going to see Slayer on Tuesday... so .... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I can see why people listen to classic rock exclusively, okay? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I hate both DJ Shadow and Prefuse 73. I've tried umpteen times to listen to numerous albums by them and they are shit. In. My. Opinion. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
man, i saw slayer on the reign of pain tour (and about 6 time since), but i wouldnt call em "classic rock". |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Fair enough - but I have lots of shit in my collection including: Van Halen Stones The Who Yes |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
as long as theres no stryper, thats cool! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i dislike prefuse very very much as well...i like shadow's entroducing quite a bit though. anyway, nice to see another person disliking prefuse, especially on this mb. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Back to 'Instrumental Hip Hop' okay... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Why is it? Prefuse is great, it's your loss by not liking him. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
does that mean you DO have some stryper? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i don't know...it's hard for me to take the rhymes out of hip-hop...afrika bambaataa, run-dmc, the various garage and house movements...all of that stuff is so vocal-driven and forms the basis of hip-hop. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i find it very boring for some reason...that is why i don't like it. if it will make you feel anytter, i don't like antipop consortium either. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
No Stryper - after all "God hates us all" :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
indeed he does, indeed he does...... i wish i was seeing slayer on tuesday (goes and sulks in corner) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
shrug, I LOVE instrumental hip-hop, but mostly dislike rap... I find rapping annoying... whereas the beats and stuff of hip-hop are great... so, take away the rapping and I'm won over... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don't know about that 'Climber' record - it's very much like Fila Brazillia which is hardcore donkey piss. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
NO! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Sorry - I don't like Fila Brazillia, and was having a good time with it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
personally i love fila brazillia, but climber doesn't really remind me of them :) |
||||||||
|

is it only me who considers a large portion of Boards of Canada's work to be instrumental hip-hop? i'm surprised their name hasn't come up yet in this discussion. i find that nearly every song they do that features beats, features very hip-hop'esque beats. do you find BOC boring? i certainly don't. they is my favorites. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
boc are pretty boring, yes...i wouldn't exactly call it hip hop either... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its pretty bold to say you don't like *all* instrumental hiphop. theres a pretty huge variety. and really...on an "idm" board, you're talking to the exact audience who is into instrumental stuff. its kind of like going onto a board for mcs and saying "i wish all them mcs would shut up!!". IMO theres good and bad of everything. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it may be good music on its own, but if there's no rapping, you may as well call it something else IMO...cause it ain't hip-hop. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
depends on how touchy you are about categorizations. a track with the vocals taken out is called an instrumental. a hiphop track with the vocals taken out is reasonably called instrumental hiphop. its not like its a big deal. tracks that have a hiphop feel but never had vocals gat labeled the same way. i think its fine. its not like its a dis to hiphop any more than alot of (fill in the style you hate) hiphop is a dis to hiphop. its still part of a *very* big culture. not to mention that instrumentals are a dj's best friend...if you're bored by listening to the instrumental, cut that shit up! |
