NO?
music has nothing to do with culture, in fact music, on it's own is irrelevant
HMM
But do you not want good music over bad music?
And are certain genres not more often good?
Music in no previous society (Im basically quoting evola here but that's basically my sentiment) had never had the place it is being given today
music was there but it could as well have not existed
I MUST DISAGREE
MUSIC IS CODING OF NERVOUS IMPULSES
THOSE CORRESPOND TO VALUES
SOME GENRES ARE MORE ORGANIZED THAN OTHERS
PANTERA IS MENTAL SLAVERY
Some cultures had various forms of expressions
Spartans had wrestling
Serbs even had silent danes, with no music
dances *
The aberration, the pathology of 20th century music
is that it was the era of the music of big words
I THINK SO
music was about shouting things into people's ears
ART FORMS HAVE PHILOSOPHICAL _FRAMING_
NOT IN THE LYRICS
BUT IN HOW THEY COMPOSE
generally plebeian, tasteless
actually, it would've contunined that way
THE GUITAR RIFFS ARE BACKGROUND NOISE
if one very fortunate thing didn't occur recently
and that is that internet made music completely unprofitable
apart for stars for hire in USA
THE CULTURAL REVOLUTION HAS BEGUN
PEOPLE ARE TIRED OF IDEOLOGICAL LIFE
LIKE UNDER SOVIET UNION
and so this whole huge portion of music scene about people who inform us in opinions (peace, love, whatever) vanished
PROTEST MUSIC
I.E.
THE MESSAGE > THE MUSIC
TO USE A CLASSIC TROPE
BUT SOME GENRES
EXPRESS A SOUND
but
