I change my previous statement: Commercialism symbolizes the decay of modern society |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
Oh yes - and our "alternative (i.e. new suburban crap punk and nu metal, rarely some Radiohead or White Stripes)" station has electronic on Saturday nights until about 2 o' clock in the morning, but of course, it's shitty shitty dance music too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Word to that. |
||||||||
|

I think it's affecting Western Society more than anything else. |
||||||||
|

|
|
hey let's all go alternative, let's listen to ! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
I'm also convinced that they only air about 6 tracks in total. Everytime I switch on the channel its the same crap over and over again. Anyone else think this...or maybe its me |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh yes....the worst thing abvout commercial music these days is not that I dispise them (which I did a while ago) but that I just don't see or hear it anymore.....if that makes sense :s |
||||||||

*them = it goddamn I'm suffering alzheimer today :-\ |

yes i do. i swear to god i was flipping through channels and Linkin park (god help us) was on, and of course MTV2 is right next to it, and - what do you know? Linkin Park's there too, same video, different location. |

MTV2 is vile as well. All the same kind of shit on there two. Busted, and Busted wannabes like eXXailon pointed out. *vomits* |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
And to think, MTV2 used to be SO great when it started, now it's just a cheap carbon copy of MTV..... |
||||||||

| |||||||||
|
|
yeah but back when MTV2 started they'd often just have their ENTIRE video catalog played from A-Z at least once every month... and you could catch some Aphex Twin in there, Bob Marley, even some old Michael Jackson... |
||||||||
|
|

where are the good old days with Party Zone when they actually broadcasted the Ageispolis video??? :O Imagine that nowadays.... |

I don't get MTV anymore since I got pirate cable. I get MTV2 which I never watch. Lately, the only channel I've been watching/having on is Extreme Sports. I think they have twice as much music as MTV and MTV2 together. I was eating and watching some BMX action earlier and this awesome Detroit techno like tune came on. I didn't see who it was by, but hopefully there's a re-run tomorrow. -P |

it think the majority of music tv is crap. possibly becuase it centres around what the majority wants to hear and will never cator for minorities unless they become popular, who knows. Thats why i enjoy watching my own vids, listening to my own cds rather than listneing to radio etc. I have some friends who are in the process of setting up a music spot on channel v thats sounds a bit more interesting than most of whats on tv now. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
good point indeed. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah becuase of the nature of tv it is allmost impossible for some of us to find anything of real interest, though there is the od few, like alchemy, an electronica program we get in sydney which covers a lot of the more obscure stuff and community radio programs such as 2ser, rrr (other countries surely must have equivalents) that are non profit and generally you find a lot more interesting stuff. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
maybe it has something to do with mass marketing becuase i find that say for instance the channel that alchemy is on has little or no advertising and same goes for these community radio stations. Go to yr main tv channels and station and its an advertising assault. |

we have an independent station here in DFW called KNON - completely non-commercial. They play a lot of variety of music but no IDM. They have, like, a different type of music for every hour. One time I caught them playing some Grateful Dead bootlegs. Not a bad station. I used to listen to their Death Metal hour late on Saturdays back in high school, which had a LOT of underground stuff and classics from Slayer and Sepultura, but they've changed the rotation since then and their host is some idiot goth girl who talks like she's some ancient princess. |

oh well can't have everything i guess, but it still leaves hope that maybe someone will pick it up. and if all elese fails u have yr own music and a stereo? thats plenty enuf for me. |

for more than 3 years i've been watching primarily fashion tv. for those of you who don't know it - that's a station that plays fashion shows 24/7. the background music they use is awesome - i've heard boards of canada there, afx, squarepusher, some nice house and lounge tunes also, i even heard ae's remix of two bass hit a few days ago. great music and beautiful girls, what more could a guy want? p.s. for the girls out there - there are even male underwear shows at midnight sometimes... :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the bad thing is that f.tv doesn't play the hole tunes. just about 3-4 minutes while the current show is on. |
||||||||
|

danbrusca: i hear ya i can't get mtv2, and i only enjoy the program 'new' on mtve. they play decent stuff i guess. i miss marijne :( |

a couple of years ago mtv2 was the dogs bollocks, it had a show with squarepusher choosing his 10 favourate video's. all the time you'd see loads of cool hip-hop, electro and techno, sadly it's now kerrang tv 2 |

You are all forgetting that MTV recorded and aired a live show and a live interview with the Twin himself. MTV now is...how can we put it...shit! I only ever used to watch MTV at midnight when they would play stuff like Massive Attack, Underworld, Squarepusher, Aphex Twin and The Prodigy. MTV now is filled to the brim with crap. There is very little music played on there anymore due to the high amount of shit such as 'The Real World' filled with ugly mofo's who need to be kicked up the arse. The best thing that MTV has is 'Dirty Sanchez' but then need a new series of that. They used to have Night Videos (which is what i said about earlier) but they got rid of that and they used to have Dance floor Chart. MTV2 on the other hand can be quite nice. Lot's of nice live shows of bands and at times a few Radiohead things. MTV Dance is...terrible unless you get people's playlist's. There was one from Orbital and they chose Aphex's 'Agiespolis' and some Stakker. I MEAN MY GOD, THAT WAS GREAT. |

ive notice something about tv in general. that the idm is not underground at all, its on alot of channels, during adverstising or documentaries..ive heard afx a thousand times and yesterday i heard amon tobin supermodified on a swiss comic show...the show was funny just because the music was rockin' :) thats strange that channels almost never do docs about great electro djs since they play them all the time |

Doesn't MTV have a wrestling show now? No joke. |

I've never watched MTV. We have a cheaper Canadian doppleganger, Much Music, plays pretty much the same shit... literally shit. We also have Much More Music which is more adult oriented, lots of nostalgia tinged specials and stuff, quite a bit better. Once they had 48 hours straight of Beatles. |

I get MuchMusic here - at least they play music, but i seriously can't stand most of it. BTW, Mr. Ophecks, are you enjoying the Shining Force music? |
