no, im really not. but, your wrong. its different for ever genre. Raps just talking/ kinda singing, to a beat. and that beat is usually made with a computer. but im not going to argue with you, you know your stuff. ill leave it at that

 

 

 

Not all of it is a beat done on the computer.

 

 

 

 

 

Sure, some genres may take different kinds of talent, but they all take talent none-the-less.

^ oh, yeah, no doubt, but i didnt say it doesnt take talent at all, i said it doesnt take as much talent.

 

 

 

we are gettin way off topic here.

Guys, careful with the flaming. I don't want someone locking it because of a pointless old flame.

 

 

 

Rap is nothing more than just beats and fast speaking

 

Oh, you mean Will Smith is as fast as Twista?

Sounds like Yaff. :-k

 

 

 

Rofl, know me that well hey? jk

 

 

 

deff. not me. i dont go to bands like that.

 

 

 

nor do i go to other bands music and diss them.

Because it wasn't first reply. :P

 

And yes i did expect. But not that late.

Hahah, I go to a music college so there's so I get things like this every day...

 

A lot most people wouldn't understand without some technical knowledge. Let's just say a lot of the less experienced people seem to think they know everything after a couple of hours of studying it when you really have to apply it to situations.

 

Of course the most common is people saying "Classical music is crap, it's all the same. Who listens to it really?" Heh...

 

 

 

Ha, that's awesome. After having to do so much 4 part and counterpoint writing for music theory class I've really realized how simple the VAST majority of popular music is. I used to think accidentals were 'complicated,' but after having to worry about parallel octaves and crossed voices and contrary motion and everything that goes along with classical writing I find it's far easier to worry about chromatics in a song that has at most two (closely related) parts as opposed to having to juggle a bunch of different rules.

 

 

 

That aside the majority of times non-diatonic stuff in rock music is fairly predictable - 99 percent of the time it's either a straight stepwise run, the pentatonic blues, or a passing (? I think) tone thrown in there. And there's no bizarre secondary dominant stuff in there either xD - bane of my existence.

 

 

 

And the more I learn and get better the more I realize I have a long road to go before I'm anywhere near as good as I'd like to be.

 

 

 

**EDIT: On topic, somebody once told me that indie music was "chill" music by definition. Personally I think indie is a word reserved for a business practice, not a genre, but even then not all indie is downtempo. But this person has good taste so I don't care.

Some kid at school...

 

 

 

"When's Elvis gonna come out with a new CD?"

 

 

 

XD

Lynard Skynnard is a pretty cool guy.... #-o can;t tell you how many times I;ve heard this one, but only because my friend likes them a lot and he asks everyone if they;ve heard of them.

I want a Led Zeppelin in my backyard...

 

 

 

No, for real. :P

"slipknot is the best band IN THE WORLD!!"
