OverClocked ReMix...

SuperBrother · #11 01-22-2012, 08:01 AM

Music today is FAR better than it's ever been before and I've been saying that my entire musical life. Seriously though, the amount of amazing stuff out there is absolutely brain numbing, in the best way possible, of course. In my opinion, the state of music as a whole can ONLY get better, never worse. Then again, I love Lady Gaga ;).

I love the radio
TuneIn let me reach radios from all over the world and discover music.
The dude a few post above, I dunno how you could only listen to game remixes, I would go insane and be sad.

What I hate tho, is the whole new wave of AutoTune in every techno songs. I'm lucky tho, I'm not really listening to techno so I skip the station. But there's an overdose of that, they all use it and they all sound the same and I'd punch them in the fuckin face if I could to apeas emy ears and my wrath. Also, the lack of originality which pisses me off.

The 80s had its wave of styles too, and funny thing, you love it 30 years later.

Music will keep on changing

In all honesty, I truly despise the mainstream music of today. It lacks any real message or meaning behind it. Music has now become more about making money and keeping people preoccupied then it is about spreading the word about peace, happenings, or life stories. Video Game Music is nothing like that, which is why I listen to it. Remixes of VGMs are also reinterpretations of famous works by fans who truly care about the piece they are working with. That intimacy between man and music is what truly makes music shine, and it has been lackluster in contemporary music.

I will always listen to Video Game Music, Classical Music, and OCRemixes. I will never listen to mainstream music (unless it just happens to be playing).

Game remixes come in all genre's and meaning its just one of those things I am a huge fan and it never gets old to me. I might just be that 1 percent but when you love something as much as I do it never gets old

Just watched that video - t-that was terrible.

Though, hasn't Nicki Minaj at least made SOME good music? I recall she pumped out some decent stuff before.

Ahh gotcha yah I need to clarify I am not saying I hate "everything" thats out there just not a fan like I was back in the 80's 90's when I believe music was really well done. But I have a 15 year old and the music she listens too is horrible and drives me crazy and I wasn't like that as a kid my dad and I had similar tastes in music and I'm from the country so Country music is and will always be part of my life but it's just amazing as to what these artists shovel down peoples throats 3 to 4 releases a year anymore its just how fast can I get into the studio and make more music that sounds "EXACTLY" the same and pump it out to people to buy kinda sad.

Modern top 40 production trends are fucking terrible. Hip Hop/R&B is the worst. They've all but abandoned their soul/funk roots and instead draw their inspiration from the cheesiest European dance music. At best, it might be a poor imitation of minimalistic 808 beats from the 80's.
