obviously don't have many fav artists in common, as it seems this mb lately only gets alive when a release of 4 or 5 major artists comes out..threads about it (especially when it's good) keep emergining constantly and discussion gets lively..and it'd be nice if someone took over that nacho and woofer competitions about fav musicians..bit silly, but makes the mb look more friendly somehow..yes |

Im not entirely clear on what you is talkin bout |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
board goes fast when ae, boc, afx or sp make a release. |

well, you're right that we don't all enjoy the same things, but I'd say that's a good thing.. of course, it's a bit annoying when you want to discuss something and you make a thread and the only replies are two people saying "yes it is awesome" and then one who says "I don't like it." those best musician competitions were good, but I think VP had a better idea.. the one where someone links something and everyone listens and then discuss.. however, this means that people would actually have to listen to new stuff every once in a while, but certain people don't seem to be willing to do this... |

and there he is! whatever happened to that thing? did you ever start it? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I agree, it's a good idea :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, that's a very nice idea indeed. it be great if people could give more suggestions of that sort! |
||||||||

I got that much. The competition bit is what I'm lost on. And the diversity of the music taste here is inherent, I don't see the point in thinking about it as something that needs to be fixed |

what am i starting? *is confused and out of it this morning* |
||||||||

|
|
Would that be MB-members spamming their new track? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
those anual competitions where we would pick our fav artists or albums for the current year.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
read the post right before that.. remember that thing you thought up a while back where you said we could have people linking musics and then discussing after listening or something..? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I always find those kind of boring... some people list ten albums I've never heard of and some people list ten albums I already have |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, and you would nbe forced to listen, or else you would face b6 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it would mean just about anything! you could get mb members, you could get known artists, you could get swedish folk music, whatever! you'd get something NEW, something to discuss, and that's all that matters, you conformist you! you're always complaining about people not posting music related things, but I'd say you're just as much to blame for it by being closed minded as people posting silly posts! |

i am a spaced-out pandas LOL I think we did only one of those. i dont know. ummmmm i am not helpful today :p |

|
|
Closed minded? WTF? That made me laugh. How can you say that? :D Just because I choose other music that mb-members? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i know what you mean..im sure it wasn't meant to be too serious..just a bit of fun and it seemed lots of people participated and it made the place much friendlier in a way.. |
||||||||
|
|

|

you should definately do more! |

Maybe if everyone was as prolific as Snares, this place wouldn't reek of tumbleweed. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, if you look at what you're doing, it isn't choosing this over that, it is simply excluding all music that isn't "signed"; you're not even considering the option of listening to the unsigned stuff, and that's exclusion, not choice. thus you are closed minded. |

That's not really how it works. I have like 100 bands and several 100 albums I'm gonna check out, because I believe I will like them. Not everyone sits in front of the computer 24/7, and have the time to listen to everything thats posted here. This week, I only have the possibility to download music one time, and then I probably will download some of the albums I've been meaning to hear for a long time. I'm not saying I never will listen to music posted here, but its' all about the priority |

hey! if morstox doesn't want to listen to spam, he doesn't have to |

that isn't really suprising is it ? i mean most of the people came here after searching for aphextwin.nu or autechre.nu... so most of the people here are actually fans of these big names aren't they ? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes and that's great if you didn't catch my drift! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

it only takes like 6 minutes of your time to listen to most spams (that is, if people aren't spamming mp3 eps or whatever), which would be a good way to pass the time while you're downloading the other stuff... you don't have to sit in front of your computer 24/7 to listen to spams.. I don't, and I listen to lots of the stuff posted here.. in general, you won't spend more than 15 mintues every day (and that's like on a really really really busy spam day) listening to stuff. oh, btw.. can I get that whole duplex thing from you? I tried ordering, but apollon can't get the vinyl, and I want to know if it really is good before I possibly order from boomkat... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
do you have the time to explain me then what you actually wanted to tell ? :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I became a bit uncertain of what it'd be like now that I heard "Can't computerize it," which wasn't exactly my type of thing... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don't think its narrow-minded to not listen to much spam music here, lets face it, the probability of it being good is a lot lower. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hm my deductive sense just managed to answet my question myself. don't bother actually. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
narrow minded is not even being willing to try shit out. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
sometimes, narrow minded is good, as it can keep you from harm, but no harm will come to you if you spend six minutes with a song. |

i think i know what you mean. there's no way of getting around the fact that there are so many releases these days that it's almost impossible for people (even people who have a shared interest in electronic music) to hear and discuss the same releases. especially now that people are flooded with digital copies of music. i listen to a lot of music, i have very eclectic tastes, and a large and eclectic library. but nine times out of ten when a release comes up for discussion i've never heard it. and many times when i make a thread about a particular album or artist, very few people have heard it. our embarrassment of riches has come between us... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think the probability that spam here will be good is probably better than a random track picked from zebox. i think your chances of hearing something good here are better than a random track picked from the selection of any music store. by "good" i mean music that plaidzebra likes. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, that's definitelly a problem..but it still seems there's a huge gap between ae afx pusher boc and everything else..by saying that i think threads about those particular big releases also attract many people who otherwise post a bit less.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah. But I have several GB with music I haven't listened to, and I don't have any problem with filling my life with good music, so it's really no problem for me. Why is it a problem for you? You can get Duplex from me. I will be on SLSK around noon tomorrow. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you're such a pirate! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
right then, lets 'av a list of artists we all like |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the problem was the attitude you had earlier, which you've either formulated yourself out of or realised to be silly; that only signed music is worth listening to... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Didn't say that. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and still lot of people dissed those nice competitions old times |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oooh arrr |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I listen to spams sometimes, but my computer is getting old and it doesn't handle downloads very well or very fast. If I had one of those lightning fast PCs that you could click a linked mp3 and windows media popped up immediately and started streaming the track, then I'd click em all. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
there is no wrong or right. you listen or you don't. but for ppl like me with a limited time of course any signed band is more likely to bear fruit |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
haha, fruit. not sure why that stikes me as funny. hmm.. |
