>Japanese cringe right off the bat >it comprises most of the list >a bunch of eclectic literally who's to make you seem like a patrician Umm, yeah, no this is gonna be a yikes and bluepilled from me dawg

>if it's not from anglo-speaking countries, it's cringe! Cringe.
Austin Butler
I like ethio-jazz. Japanese shit is usually just derivative of western styles, only repackaged for Japanese people with a different culture.
Camden Green
>Nagomu Records Not really sure, I don't think so. I will have a look at this, thanks
Aaron Brown
>I like ethio-jazz Show me your physical collection. Anyway, modern music is just derivative of ancient sounds made of bones, stones, wood and animal leather, so what?
Ethan Nelson
Show me your physical collection of japanese shit. >modern music is blah blah Yeah, so what? I mean that literally isnt relevant to the argument so I can safely say I agree with you
Eli Perry
>i like ethno jazz >i don't like when japanese people put their own spin on western genres what's it like to have the iq of a gold fish, user? solid list invalidated immediately by your need to prove your "elite taste" to Yea Forums of all places, YUGH
Cameron Wilson
>Show me your physical collection of japanese shit. okay, here's some demo tapes lol I'll be waiting to see your ethio shit. >Yeah, so what? I mean that literally isnt relevant to the argument It's relevant, since everything is derivative of something else.
I didn't say ethno jazz lmao. What's it like having the reading comprehension of a total moron?
Brody Perez
He's still right though, you claim to not like Japanese music because it's derivative of western styles, yet you like derivative American music made by ethiopians.
Samuel King
Ethio-jazz is anything but derivative, which you'd both know if you had any culture. Just saying.
>we're talking about music Nice joke, you only stepped into the thread because you were angry some other user listened to music from a country you don't care for. At least you're bumping the thread, I guess.
Sebastian Myers
Because I like the music of some countries more than others does not make me a hypocrite. >le redditor sperg dips into his 2.5 gb wojak edit folder Y'all are the reason this site is in the gutter >music from a country you dont care for >music >music Hmmmmmmmm That's not even true btw
Kevin Jenkins
god-tier cope. just admit that you still haven't forgiven Pearl Harbour or whatever else prevents you from enjoying japanese music, etiopiaboo
Nathan Brown
Great arguments you got there, buddy. But hey, keep listening to Ethiopia music, just remember: it's still derivative and not original, especially if it's fucking Jazz. And again thanks for bumping.
Hudson Ortiz
>She Past Away >Motorama Couldn't find any more generic post-punk, op? What about White Lies, that would go there nicely.
Ayden Howard
I dont mind bumping a thread that I'm enjoying an active discussion in :) And no, its really not derivative. Just because it's called jazz doesn't mean it's a copy of american jazz styles and music, lol. Get some culture. I'd suggest reading the wikipedia page on what jazz is. I don't enjoy Japanese music because its trash and I'm not japanese ;)
Jose Sullivan
Nice pic, reddit, upvoted
Leo Parker
somehow you're not the most insufferable person ITT, congrats
Blake Cooper
>And no, its really not derivative It is. Also, out of the list from OP, which ones have you listened to be sure they're all derivative of western styles?
Jonathan Ward
Actually never used Reddit. Also, I'm still waiting for the other user's physical collection of ethio shit, but I guess that ain't happening. He probably just said he listens to ehtio music to sound special, he probably just listens to Yea Forums core and FOTM stuff.
Chase Ortiz
It's not, which you'd know if you'd ever listened to any. I'm not gonna listen to OP's terrible list because its comprised of undoubtedly lame artists from a genre I dont enjoy. >muh physical collection of fucking cassette tapes I'm here to laugh at you sperg. Streaming is the future.
Caleb Jenkins
Ah man, it's not fun shitposting with you. I provide you some OC of my rare tapes and all you can come up with is some zoomer-tier "streaming is the future!" line? Lame. >it's not Yes it is. I've listened to ethiopian music, it's funny but not original.
Logan Garcia
You listen to cassette tapes bro, the objectively worst format to listen on. Hipster as fuck, you clearly use music as a fashion accessory and dont actually enjoy it. >describing music as funny So are you ESL or what?
Adam Garcia
derevative is not a pejorative in this context, but a descriptor of a type of work that borrows major elements from another work, something applicable to all ethno jazz. truly a goldfish. >I don't enjoy Japanese music because its trash and I'm not japanese ;) great, now i don't have to to take you seriously at all, cheers
Parker Wright
fucking hipsters i swear
Joseph Young
Actually, none of those demo tapes I own were released in any other format, they're from the actual tapes casettes were still made, not hipster stuff made in the 2000s/2010s. Obviously none of it is on streaming services either. >ESL Yep, I've learned english as a second language. Ethiopia music was always funny to me, like the musicians were always drunk while playing. It's been a while though. Do you know a band called Dengue Fever?
Bentley Miller
>you don't like what I like so I'm gonna reply to you once and then say I "dont take you seriously" to invalidate any future replies you send Lol okay bud, this doesn't mean you've won the argument though. >check out my super kewl collection of hipster shit that was only released on tapes >its not on the internet either, giving me even more hipster cred Yikes dude
Jace Murphy
more like I was expecting you to show me your collection of super kewl ethio shit collection, but I guess you don't have any because you don't really like ethio jazz, you just threw out a random genre name to seem knowledgeable about non-anglo music. We all know you only listen to the most derivative modern music possible. I bet you listen to Yea Forumscore, as I said.
Daniel Perez
>when you enter a thread thinking you can fuck with the regulars but get your ass handed to you
>you cant enjoy a genre unless you have a physical collection lol
Dylan Diaz
I mean, I'm sure not all of ethio jazz is on streaming services. If you're serious about the genre you probably own at least a few records. It's not like they're expensive either.
Julian Robinson
>things that didnt happened What's it like living in a fantasy world, schizoid?
Luis White
you're free to dislike specific genres or artists, "japanese music" is neither. doing it under a false pretence is also pretty cringe :/ this is my fourth time replying to you, and yes, being a nationalist does invalidate you in my eyes. >this doesn't mean you've won the argument though not being able to refute my point and not having the balls to concede your defeat? tragic
Hunter Peterson
>that was only released on tapes Are zoomers really surprised that certain stuff was only released on tapes? Do they think it's "hipster"? It was common for bands to release music in tapes back in the 80s and 90s, especially if they were DEMOS.
James Ortiz
I love how he didn't address anyone in particular but you still felt addressed, lol. Cope, brainlet. You're getting your ass smashed into bits by people who actually enjoy music.
Josiah Lewis
>You listen to cassette tapes bro, the objectively worst format to listen on. 8track Reel to reel Shellac Vinyl YouTube
Jose Ortiz
Christ, you guys really argue about anything here huh?
I was hoping you just could give me similar recommendations like in the OP, not throwing a hissy fit...
Matthew Cox
all music that hasn't been re-released on a cosy western label for easy consumption is devoid of value /s
Thomas Gutierrez
>Obviously none of it is on streaming services either. I sure as fuck hope you archived which ever tapes aren't on the net and uploaded them.
Logan Fisher
>if you dont own every release in a genre on a physical format you dont take music seriously Lol okay dude, nice tape collection, very fashionable. You obviously only care about getting hipster cred which is why you also felt the need to post it on /vr/.
You haven't made a single valid point thusfar. Keep seething. No, I'm not surprised about some music only being on tape. I think its hipster to specifically hunt down tape-only releases just so you can post your rare collection online for hipster cred. lmao I'm getting my ankles chewed at by a bunch of hipsters who dont enjoy music, just the status afforded by certain types. Stay mad. >vinyl >worse than tapes I dont listen to vinyls but the people who do have a valid reason for it.
Samuel Taylor
this is the most fun thread on this shithole in weeks, wym
Colton Gray
At least the "ethio jazz fan" is bumping your thread. So let's thank him for that. Have you checked anything from Nagomu Records? I also recommend anything Susumu hirasawa/P-Model if you haven't heard already.
Cooper Carter
>VINYLS alright, thread's over, go home everyone
Jeremiah Smith
I did, a long time ago though, in 320kbs mp3, I should re-rip them on lossless soon for a definitive preservation. You asked me to post my japanese shit dude, and you never delivered your ethio shit. That's not very fair, you know.
Gabriel Rogers
I do listen to vinyl and it's worse than tape simply because it has no fast forward and limited range, making some genres sound very lackluster compared to tape. There's a reason musicians still bounce to tape today.
Joshua Kelly
>Have you checked anything from Nagomu Records? Yea, I'm listening to Uchoten right now? Is this Nagumo Records? It sounds nice, I liek it
>I also recommend anything Susumu hirasawa I just found that guy yesterday. It was a song about a malaysian transgender (which he probably fucked?)... a bit weird but interesting...
Chase Thomas
Based. I dont usually come across too many things that aren't on the net, but I always make sure to rip them if I do.
Isaac Morris
>cassette tapes >superior to anything lmao ok. I'm not wasting any more time on you hipsters. you can all reply to this post pretending this means you won the argument. im gonna go do something productive.
Brandon Lopez
Yeah, Uchoten is the leading Nagomu band, the vocalist Kera is the president of the label (and has many other music projects besides Uchoten). Kera has worked with Jun Togawa a number of times, and so did Hirasawa. Kera and Hirasawa have also worked together a couple times (mostly live stuff). >It was a song about a malaysian transgender (which he probably fucked?)... a bit weird but interesting... Hirasawa seems to have a fascination with thailand ladyboys, but I was never sure if the interest was sexual, actually.
Jayden Watson
>You haven't made a single valid point thusfar.
saying that all japanese music is bad because it's derivative of western music in the same breath as boasting your love for ethiopian jazz makes you a hypocrite or a moron. to help you understand this i further explained that derevative is not a pejorative in this context, but a descriptor of a type of work that borrows major elements from another work, something applicable to all ethno jazz.
was this slow enough for you?
Gabriel Russell
Thanks for all your bumps, ethiojazz-kun.
Connor Jackson
>list reasons and arguments for the format >get meme arrows instead of an argument Yeah, fuck outta here.
David Mitchell
Some based stuff mixed with some pleb stuff I approve the focus on the superior race of mankind
Ethan Martin
any Afrirampo fans here? what do you think of their post-reunion stuff?
James Thomas
youre even more of a big retard cause some of them are on spotify
