Is electronic music good? Or is it just a meme?
Is electronic music good? Or is it just a meme?

Depends who you ask, i like electronic music although i know little about it.
Gavin Murphy
Of course it is. Put simply, synthesisers and sampling can create universes impossible with conventional instruments such as twangy guitars.
Camden Gutierrez
there's pretty much an infinite number of ways in which you can modify and play an electric guitar though
Matthew Sanchez
Not compared to, y'know, basically manipulating sound waves to make the exact sound you want.
Not wanting an argument, I like plenty of different types of music, but sonic experimentation is a lot less common elsewhere. People get too hung up on "musicianship" or whatever.
Juan Fisher
I totally disagree. You can modify the way a guitar sounds in an infinite number of ways, the only limits are your imagination. Reducing that to “twangy guitars” is wrong
Gavin Morris
It's really hard to get right and it's a rare treat when someone does
Lucas Bennett
provide an example pls
Aiden Perry
Electronic music means so many things as to be an almost meaningless designation. Of course there is good music that falls under its purview.
Landon Parker
Dominic Parker
Like any genre, its not inherently good or bad. For instance the music of Demarcus Williams is both very bad, while the music of Squarepusher is amazing.
Luke Reyes
Electronic instruments are very promising musically and certainly very fun to use. But there is no such thing as “electronic music,” only other musics arrangements electronically. A conventional house track played on acoustic or electric instruments (guitars, drums, piano) would just sound like rock or rnb.

Christopher Cook
guitars can do more than twang, you presumptuous little twit. and Jon Hopkins' music is shallow and trite
Noah Murphy
>electronic thread immediately derailed by insecure guitar faggot
Fuck off. Yes you can make a few sounds with a guitar. No you can't do anywhere near the level of sound experimentation that's possible with synths, samplers, and computers.
t. played guitar for 13 years, probably a lot better than you. Also make electronic music.
Austin Morales
Electronic music is not a genre
Ethan Hernandez
jesus christ you're upset. did your dad rape you with a guitar or something?
Cooper Ortiz
What makes jon hopkins shallow to you?
Michael Parker
I was just responding to a dumb erroneous comment about guitars
Dominic Young
If that poster is upset it's only because you "anti-electronic" brainlets have been saying the same ignorant nonsense for decades and it's about time you get a clue
Benjamin Campbell
electronic is too broad of a term.
genres like glitch, minimal techno, nu-disco, and future bass are great.
dubstep, most trance, riddim, and other heavy bass genres are retarded.
EDM culture as a whole is fucking pathetic.
Asher Rivera
I'm not anti electronic. I'm just baffled by his autism.
Jeremiah Gutierrez
name all the instruments
Lincoln Russell
i love that he sampled a fucking chair scraping across the floor.
Austin Kelly
>tfw the only things the music industry seems to know what to do with electronic music are that shortlived dubstep fad and the generic-ass EDM-sphere
are they like intentionally fucking up or what
Jacob Clark
its all about money. kids with rich parents buy festival tickets at 400 a pop. half of them go to enjoy the music, the other half to do molly and fuck strangers.
Nicholas Young
>is [gigantic umbrella genre] any good?
Gabriel Phillips
sure there's a hussle there and that's fine but there's no reason all the actually good music that just gets ignored shouldn't be treated with more respect by the industry at large, there's plenty of money being left on the table in that regard imo
Nicholas Howard
guiturds are the n***rs of music
Ethan Allen
if you want to get a peek to the "mind" of a guitarist, just see the /gg/ thread right now, some top brains right there discussing guitar matters.
