musIQ

Anyone who tells you music is all about taste is wrong.

As for most people, they just listen to what is playing on the radio and feels it because it's simple, they have a simple taste in music and lack critical judgement. These farts in the wind do not seek out music on their own, they get served it through mainstream media. Fussy sounds with vocals about fame, money and sex produced by a pretty person is simple to grasp for most people. Fussy sounds clicks with the mind of a boring colorless person. To get famous, rich and having sex are the same person's deepest desires. This is what we call mainstream music and I've seriously and genuinly hated it since I began listening to musIQ when I was around 14. It's evident, mainstream music dumbs down society, it's like being drunk on alcohol, you don't really think anymore, feelings take completely over. Look how people act way tougher, cooler and more rude than they really are, flash their money, and hooks up for cheap one night stands when being drunk. It's important to note talentless mainstream musicians makes shitloads of money while the seriously talented underground musicians makes little to nothing. The people who are into mainstream music are sheeple in the music scene, I.E they don't think for themselves but let the radio do the thinking and IME most of these same people are often sheeple in most if not all parts of life. I think music and what the person listens to often reflect the person in his or her personality.

Music or musIQ as it should be named makes my intellect go curious, it makes my mind produce mental images of a world connected in peace, love and harmony, it gives me some epic feelings about smart people (many on this forum) when I hit the spot with a certain sound or sequence of sounds. When I get these feelings, it kind of sticks to my mentality, so I grow as a human being, the way I want it; peace, love, harmony and smartness. This is something I've figured out, through listening to musIQ: extremely woke people listening to musIQ pictures themselves in the middle of a social situation and understands how to adapt the most polished way in the social situation when a certain sound or sequences of sounds hits their brain, if they truly feel a sophisticated sound/sounds they're likely to figure out how to say something sophisticated in the social situation and implement this in a real scenario of a social situation using both verbal language and body language. I've done this before while tripping that's when I have awareness, creativity and energy for it. When you're amazing you build conversations the way you like it, I.E you say something using verbal language and body language and that exact something you say makes you get the reply you want. Saying "Hi!" to the cashier in the grocery store will in 9/10 times get you a "Hi!" back and then you build on this modifying it with the sophisticated sound/sounds. Supermen and Superwomen build up such conversations while listening to musIQ.

This is true musIQ:

Interesting proposition that most people don't seek out music by themselves and listen to whatever they are fed easiest. I don't know about that. If most means 51% of the population in any given cohort then perhaps. Everyone I know has favorite genres and some are more open in their musical taste than others. I haven't listened to mainstream pop in ages. Occasionally I will checkout some top 50 list songs and realize how crap they are. Some pop songs can be good though. I agree about the sheeple idea you said. Mainstream music if that means top 50 at any given moment is dumb and simple music I agree. If someone listens to mostly that, I am pretty sure they are quite dumb and simple too, maybe in an ignorance is bliss kind of way.

I think it's important to note that there was good mainstream music, it was simple music but it was catchy, groovy and soulful.

The dollar has completely taken over the modern mainstream music scene. A petty image matters more than the music in itself. Image and all that comes with it, I.E fame, money and sex SELLS!

Same with the film industry. Between Hollywood blockbusters, mediocre independent films, and semi-decent but ultra low-budget stuff that had to be scraped together over years, it seems they just don't really release good movies anymore. As David Lynch said, the art-house now is cable and on-demand, and that has its issues. I'm more into movies than music, but I understand your point completely.

And I am much more into movies than series. Fucking series everywhere. I don't care how good they are, most of the time I just want to watch a good movie and not start some series that doesn't immediately captivate me.

Like this Ozark that was supposed to be so good. I watched like 3 episodes and yeah it was interesting at first even though it took a long while and I don't like that main character actor, but then I just lost interest. It was like breaking bad without breaking bad and just boring stuff with the most boring main character ever. :lol:

I watched 2 episodes of Breaking Bad when it first came out and abandoned it for its violence. When my wife and I returned to it a year later we were addicted to it like it WAS meth! Mourned when the series ended. This has happened to my wife and I several times. Six Feet Under was another series we found boring and later loved. So was Dexter. The character development of Ruth played by Julia Garner is alone reason to watch Ozark IMO.

There is something about that Jason Bateman that I don't like. He is always the same person in every film or series! To each their own

And because of his stoicism he doesn’t care that you think that about him.  :grin:

Music is a lot like a drug that some people can handle and some can’t. Especially something like jazz.

I think most people look for stories coupled with some pleasant chords. Which is fine.

The music in vogue at any given time seems to stand at the intersection of other factors making up the zeitgeist of that time. Maybe it’s how the musicians look.

The other end of the continuum is progressive rock with all of its excesses.

To each their own.

I believe there is music and then there is muzak. The first is created out of enjoyment of the music, no matter the genre. The second is created for other motives than appreciation.
