ur mom's asshole lmao

Says the faggot that wears music as an accessory and posts retarded 00s kids memes. You're the result of growing up without a father digure to discipline you out of retardation.

I play bass in a jam band, have been playing french horn ever since I was 7 and I've made some songs of my own and I can still enjoy a variety of genres. When I'm playing with my band we often hop between genres like funk, post rock and even black metal.
Also fuck wojaks

Southern Post-Blues

>You don't have paddion for music if you don't play music.
Says who? Some clueless fucking retard who'll never be anything more than a third rate musician?
I want you to explain why consuming music is somewhat less of a hobby than creating it without using irrelevant annecdotal evidences.

Because music consumtion is a passive action. Passiveness is pretty much antithetical to passion. If something isn't an outlet of self-realisation, it isn't a passion.
I understand you're really young and want to find yourself and establish a persinality through associationg with the works of other people but you have to understand such behaviour is not healthy. You will never truly be a person until you find a means of self-realisation instead of pure consumption.

So according to your logic anyone who doesn't make art in some form isn't a person?

What about books then? People read them, absorb the ideas and form their personality around the knowledge they've gained. Is that not how it works?

>So according to your logic anyone who doesn't make art in some form isn't a person?
>art is the only outlet of self-realisation
If you're going to keep posting intellectually dishonest shit in a desperate as fuck attempt to "win" an internet discussion through mental attrition I suggest you fuck off and find something else to invest your time in.

Nice bait, i hope you're enjoying the (You)'s.

Shoegaze

I'm not tryna win anything, I'm genuinely curious about your thoughts on this matter. Don't be so stuck up

>Because music consumtion is a passive action.
If it can engage in intellectual stimulation, it isn't a passive action. If you've never intellectually engaged while listening to music you should abandon art altogether.
>If something isn't an outlet of self-realisation, it isn't a passion.
How is consuming art somehow antithetical to self-realisation?
>passive-agressive rant
Yeah ok bud lmao

Do you think that making and playing music could be seen as an equivalent of self monologue and reflecting upon things? 'Cause if that's what you're saying, I agree with you to some extent but I still feel like you're being a bit too dismissive of people's thinking abilities in this case. By enjoying art, the person goes through many of the same things as someone who's reading a book. One of art's main purposes is to make the person who's consuming it think. Or that's how I see it at the very least.

Alternative and mid west emo

As a blek metul head i promised myself I’d never let myself get into ‘ poser ‘ music but FFFFFUUUUCCCKKKKKK I LOVE TAME IMPALA AND THAT STUPID MIDWEST EMO COMPILATION WITH THE LAWN MOWER

I'm very much interested in seeing the lawnmower compilation

Also check out a black metal band called Waste of Space Orchestra. Their debut came out this year. I just listened to it for the first time and I feel like coming back to it already. Also they're Finnish 'cause it probably matters

>many of the same things as someone who's reading a book. One of art's main purposes is to make the person who's consuming it think
Reading in of itself isn't self-realisation either. Processing the ideas expressed in literature into a philosophy of your own that you actively incorporate into your life can aid in self-realisation, but still I don't think it would be fair to consider literature a passion if you yourself aren't inspired to take up some form of creative process yourself. Pure consumption can't be considered more than a hobby. Passion manifests in dedication to both learning through consumption and creative input. Otherwise you're just misusing the word.

Thank you for giving me a different point view that I hadn’t really considered all that much. I really look forward to bumping into you again at some point in the future. If you were to take anything from this teeny tiny conversation we had like I did, I hope that you and everyone else reading this were a bit more kind towards others. Every single one of us has most likely either gone through some shit or is experiencing said shit at this very moment, be it something as extreme as actual mental illness or something as mundane as boredom. Not saying that everyone should be treated as babies, pitied and shit, but if everyone were just a tad bit more empathetic this would basically be paradise. Thanks again, user. I think I’ll go for now
