if you want any recommendations feel free to hit me up on discord

I will do Hupfi.

EMSY!!!! How incredible is this? ❤️👌

Agreed! What's Wrong is the song that got me hooked on them 🥰

Yas!! Old Wounds is amazing too!

Might need to give them a look too? Any suggestions?

@@ChaseCarneson Saltwater is their best song, buuuuuut if I have to recommend the best Aussie indie rock band it has to be The Paper Kites. Electric Indigo and Bloom are my faves from these guys. Have a listen on your own time.

Thanks for being open minded. Seems lots aren't that way inclined.

We don't need to put everything in categories. In the words of the great Henk Poort: Good music is good music. Period.

@@meekema3353 And what makes a music good (btw that's a category too)? Your personal preference? If yes, then every music is good, because it matches someone's preference. And if every music is "good", then "good" loses all meaning whatsoever. My opinion is, that calling people who have more specific tastes as being narrow minded and people who "like everything if its good", aka people who have no specific taste open minded is not saying too much. Especially considering, that this attitude would dissolve all subcultures, which I claim would be/is a bad thing, because without "fanatic" subcultures music like metal would have not survived more than a half century, it would have died like a fad, like disco and original punk did. Nowadays its fashionable to say you like everything, and its meant to mean that you have a wide taste and a tolerant personality, but for me it only means someone has not yet developed a specific taste, aka tasteless.

​@@Hy-jg8ow To quantify quality is a never ending discussion. To me well written, well performed, with real emotion rings a bell, but that does not have to be your answer. What I mean to say is that do not let the limits of a scene or a genre limit your discovery of music. A decade ago I would have said certain genres, like for instance metal, were not for me. But I have been surprised by quality in so many types of music that I find it rewarding to go and discover new performers and new types of music. Of course we al have our preferences, that's fine.

@@meekema3353 Yeah, I can accept your reasoning to a certain degree. I also enjoy some music which is rather outside my favored genres, but I do have favored genres, thus a taste I gravitate towards, return to more. My main beef with a piece of music is, when its obviously crafted with a mind for it to sell, and not with a mind for it to express. This can mean that a music uses all or most of the elements and ingredients which makes them decidedly radio-friendly and has a "trendy" sound and instrumentation which echoes the most popular and best selling musical products. Such as when a rapper makes mumble-rap because that's what "contemporary" must sound like or such as when an electronic music maker makes slow ("intellectual") "trap" with tortured cat or mumbling children sounds in the background, because that's how everyone else does it. This applies to metal as well, lets say a band doing metalcore, because that's the newest "cool" genre in the center of the universe (USA). Commercial music in general I would classify as bad, authentic music I would classify as good. The problem is: there are always enough people for whom the most overproduced, most trendy, most derivative product will count as "deep and authentic". That is why I think that when judging the quality of music certain genres are objectively better than others, regardless whether they happen to connect with me or not. The criteria being musicality, technicality and originality. In terms of the first two criteria certain forms of jazz and classical music will turn out the best, with certain forms of metal and rock music following close second. In terms of originality the genres are widely variable, but personally I don't like something just for it being original if it lacks qualities in the first two quality category. My personal preference also rewards points based on qualities like: instrumental virtuosity, vocal performance, production (recording) quality, timbre, power of sound, overall composition and finally emotional value and conveyed meaning.

Thank you, man. 🙏🙏🙏

London Grammar is definitely a special pearl in the musical sea. Hannah has a gorgeous voice and her boys Dan & Dot are best musical company for the style they care. I'm very curious what the new album will bring. I will add some of them to the discord as well.

@@yubogolfer4040 looks like the bot is not my friend. I guess you're yubogolfer on discord? :D

@@michaausleipzig Yes, that's me :) Unfortunately I can't change my nickname in the Discord to make it more obvious.

@@yubogolfer4040 hehe, that's why I have pretty much the same name everywhere. Also sais all there is to know about me. 😅

@@michaausleipzig Well, i thought it was a good idea to have not the same name everywhere to avoid beeing cross tracked, but since I'm more active in YT I realized, that it has been not the best idea ever ... but anyways, it is how it is.

Actually already had that one up but it's been blocked unfortunately

Got something coming out very soon my friend.

Sony keep blocking the videos so can't unfortauntely

Appreciate you being open-minded

I respectfully disagree. But I understand that it may not be your vibe and possibly outside of your wheelhouse. That's okay though. Can't all like the same thing

@@ChaseCarneson Sure, I understand too, its maybe the "instrumentation" which makes it a bit sound like most pop music at this time, I observed they tend to use musical elements and sounds which mesh with a current "trend" for the lack of a better word. No offense meant.

I'm not a jazz fan myself, more blues but alllllll music is welcome here.

@@ChaseCarneson that's a good thing, but I won't be there. 😊

Then don't listen? 🤷‍♂️

@@ChaseCarneson I had to check it out...didn't like it so switched off - no harm no foul. Look forward to tomorrow's reaction.

@@nightwishlover8913 no stress. Cool cool. I thought it was fantastic.

@@ChaseCarneson I was pleasantly surprised with this one her voice is very soothing to me that and all the screaming stuff has gotten very samey same.

You may like their older stuff. It's a bit more rock/punk vibes. Just throwing that out there :)
