okay, look at it this way, if electronic is a genre, so is my dog barking, so are my farts and so are computers starting up.
I find it hard to belive that somone who actually studies music seems to forget how diverse Electronica is
[quote/]Just because something makes a sound, an arrangement of such does not make music.
I said in my personal opinion, not cold hard fact. I studied music for a few years and the actual definition is "The art or science of combining vocal or instrumental sounds (or both) to produce beauty of form, harmony, and expression of emotion" to do this, you need musical instruments which were labeled in my previous comment. At uni we were taught electronica was not a legitimate category of instrument and therefore it is not actually able to create music.[/quote]
so its about the tools and not the sound?
[quote/]However like everything you hipsters people in life always ruin, it has to be called music and so our uni taught us about it too, only out of necessity. Any real.. and I say real because people over the internet clearly don't count, anyway real music buffs will agree with me.[/quote]
ruin? its somehow wrong of me to belive its music?
I would have thourgh music buffs were more or less opned minded about it rather than putting abitrairy "rules" as to what is and isnt music
define "music buff" I'd like to know what such people think
[quote/]My entire point was, yes it is music only because the definition of art changed, that was only because it has to be so people like you and the artsy fags would stop bitching.[/quote]
bitching? we are not the ones bitching....the ones bitching are the same kind of people will will ALWAYS complain
rap isnt trash! dubstep is trash! current music is trash!
well it gets alittle frustrating when people have silly predjudices over certain things used in (what I call) music
but whatever..peopel can like or dislike whatever they want... just to see
this is not only one of my all time favorite electronic songs..but one of my all time favorite songs ever...
so you would say this isnt music?
