Is Rap a valid musical form? Wow, wow! LEENALCHI K-Pop?! I can’t remember hearing anything more musically sophisticated and fascinating. Talk about counterpoint! Two bass guitars a drummer and 4 singers “speaking” on pitch. Yea, Talking Heads, Bjork and the B-52s dream of w... | |
Is Rap a valid musical form? avoidance of verse>chorus>bridge song structure, no need for simple hooks. Are you saying that the Great American Songbook is crap? | |
Is Rap a valid musical form? This list turned out to be not very "musical" and therefore not very listenable. Slick Rick - The Great Adventures Of Slick Rick (Children's Story is a masterpiece) NAS - Illmatic Outkast - Stankonia Beastie Boys - Licensed to Ill The Kany... | |
Is Rap a valid musical form? My first idea of a title for this thread was “Enjoying and engaged by Rap”. I only changed to “Is Rap a Valid Musical Form?” in order to elicit responses. However, I do feel that my OP clearly explained the former. I do appreciate the song/ art... | |
Is Rap a valid musical form? I am 68. Have been a pro musician for most of my life. Thanks for the list of stuff to check out. Listened to Drake “Scorpion” yesterday. Was disappointed. Especially after my incredible experience with Kendrick. It lacked the complex use of mus... | |
Is Rap a valid musical form? "It's grossly inaccurate to suggest that Rap incorporates rhythm alone. Anyone who asserts that hasn't the slightest idea what they are talking about. It is true only of some Rap." Think this is why I seem to be interested in more contemporar... | |
Is Rap a valid musical form? Have checked out the Beastie Boys before. The problem I have with them and most other older Rap is that I find it monotonous. It seems like Rap has evolved into a more complex and engaging experience. Not to overly generalize. I did start to watc... | |
High Fidelity Cable replaces NPS 1260 I have the NPS 1260 and hesitate to apply it. So far, I have it on one speaker cables. Don’t hear any difference but should probably do the other speaker. And thinking of doing my amp fuses. Any ideas? | |
Recommend new EL84 tubes If you can find them, NOS military grade Mullard 12AT7s are the best you can get. | |
Is Rap a valid musical form? I guess one can say that the world of Hip Hop and Rap is yet another true American art form. | |
Townshend Audio speaker podiums...three ways to install Townshend is emphatic about going bareback. But, if you can, try with the Stillpoints. I replaced my Stillpoints with the podiums. Tremendous difference. So extreme it is hard to describe. | |
What makes the biggest difference in sound quality? Surely, new speakers and new cartridge made the hugest difference. However, the most shocking and, by far, best bang for the buck was Townshend Podiums under my speakers. The character of the sound radically changed for the better. Shocking. | |
Anyone try modern 6sn7 Shuguang WE type vs NOS RCA,Ken Rad BEWARE-I spent $750 on 4 Psvane 6SN7GT Globes. All 4 were microphonic! I first used them in my Atma-Sphere M-60 amps. No problem until I moved them to my A-S MP-1 preamp. I couldn’t believe that my super duper globes could be the cause of LOUD no... | |
Isoacoustics Orea vs Townshend Seismic Pod on Components MC-Actually I was tempted to say exactly that. Townshend Seismic Podiums are 4 times better? But I don’t know that for sure. There is a debate between active devices like the podiums and passive ones like SRA platforms, etc. This video is wha... | |
Isoacoustics Orea vs Townshend Seismic Pod on Components Repeatedly, the post failed. See it did not. The Audiogon system did these repeats. Sorry… |
