come discuss something on /mu/ with me real quick

[luka]

Is this supposed to be real music it's like the incidental music in a video game?

I've given up already

jaaack. fucks sake. you dont even have to listen to it. ive listened to it for 2 seconds (skipping around) it is comprised of the incidental and in between moments of our lives, between places, on hold, the background to our existence
not the chase scene not the first kiss music but waiting rooms, telelvision adverts that interrut the programe, etc

 

[luka]

it is the connective tissue. the load screen.

Nah I can see the video game reference, 80’s nostalgia trips for people who were barely alive at the time

Can everybody else stop talking so we can go back to Luke's Greatest Hits please.

 

[Corpsey]

Bloody students *shakes fist*

 

[Corpsey]

The way the mix was done was annoying to me but maybe that's how 'vapourwave' is supposed to be listened to

 

[luka]

it's really annoying music but you can understand the concept without having to listen to it for more than a few seconds. the visuals are important too

if no one is going to blow my trumpet i'll have to do it myself. the thread was other life saying the music is underwritten so i was helpfully pointing out the places where ive written about it.

 

[luka]

obviously i dont expect danny l to read it or to be interested but he wasnt the one asking to see it.

 

[Corpsey]

shut up dweeb

Don't worry, I used to do this myself all the time.

 

[Corpsey]

I don't listen to music for concepts, I'm a proletarian ham and cheese sandwich kinda guy.

 

[luka]

do we have to fight this do we? it has to be a site of resistance? we cant just say oh thats nice luke that makes me think of a related thing which is also clever let me share it with you yes i see exactly what you mean i know that experience!

 

[Corpsey]

Even though I walk around with a notepad laboriously transcribing passages of George Santayana

 

[luka]

you cant herd cats

 

[Corpsey]

I'm going to try this

the point isnt to listen to it the point is to talk about it

 

[Corpsey]

Oh I see now this annoying looping is built into the music. Interesting.

 

[Corpsey]

This is actually freaking me out, it's actively unpleasant.

It feels like seasickness
