/jp/ - Otaku Culture

[Anonymous No.]

Any Kanye otaku here?

[Anonymous No.]

I asked a question about music on /mu/, and they all made stupid, unrelated jokes about Yeezus (which I had to look up).

It really annoyed me. I lurked plenty and the question was fine, but they just shoehorned their meme in there anyway. It's like me going into every idol or denpa thread and saying "LOL WCH 2HU FK???"

I hate you so much, /mu/.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11072415
Yeah, /mu/ is really shitty.

[Anonymous No.]

HAHAHA OMG IS THE COVER A COMPACT DISC?!!?!?!

SO #RETRO

PIC RELATED IT'S THE SAVE ICON, I'M POSTING IT IRONICALLY BECAUSE IT'S ALSO RETRO (POST-90SERS WON'T REMEMBER IT xD)

[Anonymous No.]

>>11072420
But they weren't shitty for a reason.

I could understand if they were trying to keep people like me out. /jp/ is elitist, sometimes in very annoying ways, and it makes sense. But my question was on-topic and a few people even said they found it interesting. People were posting unrelated happened-to-be-popular-at-the-time shitposts just for the sake of posting them.

I suppose it's partly my fault for assuming other boards operated under the same mechanics as /jp/.

I liked Late Registration okay, but not enough to come back to it again or listen to the other albums.

I need to watch Runaway one day though, I saw a part some time ago and it seemed pretty interesting. It's also quite /jp/.

[Anonymous No.]

As far as corporate pop goes, is she still the best?

[Anonymous No.]

No, and I find it laughable that people (including Kanye) consider his pop drivel "art" or a "masterpiece." He is literally pretentious.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11072460
Yes.

Does pop rock count as corporate pop?

My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy was better.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11072474
Depends.

There seems to be a divide with "pop rock". It's either poppy rock music that combines the enjoyable elements of both pop and rock, or it's some epithet you apply to rock music you don't like ("It's not real rock music! It's pop rock, made by a corporation!")

/mu/tant here
>>11072420
/mu/ is really cool place to hang out, get recomendations for music, get music related news and find new stuff.
On another hand, it's a board full of movement, so there are always newfags and trolls that shitpost. Plus, regular /mu/ users also shitpost as a way of disagree with others' opinions.
I can understand why people would find /mu/ shitty, but it's really not that bad.
>>11072433
Lately people have been using yeezus as a "meme" for several reasons: because it was a highly anticipated album that was somewhat a flop, had very different critic reviews and was leaked on /mu/. This happens time to time with anticipated albums.
>>11072454
LR is a great album, you should try listening to College Dropout if you liked it. My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy (the one where runaway is from) is also a very good album, the one people most claim as his best.
>>11072460
Not really, she's been under for a while, probably working on her new album or something. People have been praising Taylor Swift lately though.
I can't really tell much since I'm not the biggest pop fan.

Too mainstream for you?

Don't worry--I'm sure you have more grown-up, sophisticated tastes, /mu/ scum.

Where the fuck do these people come from?

Is there a Twitter app that notifies /mu/tants, fa/tg/uys, etc. every time their board is mentioned on /jp/?

[Anonymous No.]

/mu/, has there been a Volume 2 or any more albums like this?

I really, really don't want to go to your board.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11072507
Not really, I just prefer other genders. I don't find pop very appealing, except some disco stuff like bee gees.
But there are people that love pop on /mu/ too, it's not like everyone there only likes underground artists. Actual hipsters that only listen to stuff no one knows are a rarity on /mu/, you can see lots of threads about mainstream music when you reach there, Kanye for example.
>>11072511
I also browse /jp/ ocasionally and happened to find this thread.

it blows my fucking mind that some people can browse more than one 4chan board

/jp/ is probably like the slowest board there is, and just F5ing this one takes up most of my day.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11072521
No, that was the only one.
That album is like a compillation of electronic music by various artists, I guess there are several like it, you might get lucky if you ask /mu/ for info.
Remember to ignore the idiots who answer yeezus or whatever.

I pick one new board a year and spend a year on that and if it starts sucking I give it up

I have currently spent time on /b/, /h/, /m/, /mu/, /a/, /v/, /jp/, and /g/ (I started in 2005)

the only board I like anymore is /jp/

>>11072564
I use two carrots to match the post number link, Anon. I could just as well ask why you're "quoting" the number 11072545.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11072544
I browse /ck/, /vp/, /g/, /mu/, /jp/ for interests.
/b/ for porn.

What's the point of the 3DPD porn boards if everyone uses /b/ for porn?

[Anonymous No.]

>>11072566
How can you solely browse a board like /h/ for a year? After you've finished masturbating, do you just start to judge erotic works based on their artistic merit or what?

[Anonymous No.]

>>11072581
I like to fap to some sex stories or momless stuff that appear on /b/. Never bothered trying other boards.

What are some good music radio stations?

Your local KISS-FM radio station.

>>11072592
I live near an ivy league university and their Public Radio channel has some pretty decent DJ blocks that I like to tune into when I'm driving. You might find something local like that, too.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11072544
I only started recently, because now I can use thread hiding/catalog to browse faster boards easily enough.

I even go on /a/ sometimes, it's not that bad of a board when you hide 95% of the the threads.

I still wouldn't go anywhere near /v/ though.

[Anonymous No.]

that was my first year on 4chan

I wasn't on /h/ only ｗｗ

>it's a board full of movement,
It's like that because /mu/ talks about the same things over and over again. Everyone gets their music from the sharethreads and no one cares enough about to find bands from other sources so everyone's taste ends up more or less the same.

There's also more threads about showing off your taste than actual music discussion.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11072588
/d/ has good stories and real life sex discussions sometimes, and I know /gif/ has parentless threads occasionally, I don't browse it much though.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11072600
What a contentless post. That's of no use to anyone. You just wanted to blog.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11072621
Blog about what? That I live within radio broadcast range of a prestigious university?

I'm simply stating that good music might be right under one's nose.

Nice, I might give them a visit even tonight then, thanks!

Well yes, there is a major part of the board that consists on circlejerking about musical taste. But it's not true that people don't bother getting music from other sources, there is last.fm, there's pitchfork, record labels, lots of critics, etc, etc. Most threads on /mu/ are from people sharing something they found with others.
There are also threads of last.fm collages, in which someone posts their collage and asks for rating and recommendation while rates and recommends stuff to others. Those are mainly showoff threads but you can sometimes find new stuff to hear.
Those collages are mostly alike because people tend to listen to new albums that come out a lot, so they end up there, also there are artists that are liked by almost everyone there, like Kanye, Radiohead, My Bloody Valentine, etc.

Niche stuff? I just use /b/ for porn because of the "random". All the other porn boards are so strict about what is and what isn't allowed.

[Anonymous No.]

>>11072666
I use /gif/ often for a similar reason, they have a lot more varied content as far as porn goes, most of the time. I do hate it when I can't find the source for something, though.
