This decade seems to mirror the previous decade pretty well. Though I guess the rise of emo and metalcore with the death of grunge and nu-metal are the main differences. I honestly couldn't tell you what music genre defines this decade or any decade since I don't have my ear to the mainstream ground.


And video game music is very good. Especially the quality rock and metal sounding stuff. I love it.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Why does "video game" count as a genre of music? Like it's separate and distinct from any other kind of music.

"Hey wow a full orchestra, that sounds kind of like--"
"NOPE IT'S VIDEO GAME GENRE GTFO"
"Sarry"

i wouldn't say that "video game" is it's own genre of music, rather video games use music from many different genres. anybody who disagrees with this statment is dumb, because I said so.

Videogame music is designed for a different purpose, to compliment a particular setting in a game rather than sell itself.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Exactly Grubdog. I'd say VGM has more emotion to it. I consider it to be a more free form genre of music.

What the hell, a lot of VGM is pretty much worthless outside the context of the game.

You must be listening to average or bad VGM then.

Mainstream Music doesn't have a wide variety of sound but Video game music does?

I'm sorry, What are you refering to when you say "Mainstream Music" exactly? Anything on the radio, Anything that isn't a video game or what?

If anything, I'd say "Mainstream" music has a much broader variety of tone, setting and feeling than video game music.

Before you kids crown me a 'vgm hataa!111!!1 gtfo gff", I just want to say I listen to VGM Music and "Mainstream" music.

I'm not into most shit on the radio personally, but just like game music, it has its ups and downs. You can't say as a whole one is better than the other. It's just not possible to prove it.

I'm not understanding the logic, I do however understand the bias.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

No, it's just that you hear Mainstream music so much that it runs together after a while. There's always advertisements about what new song is hot and people generally all know those songs. Mainstream music is pretty much in your face all of the time so it's not really 'fresh' anymore.

Of course, I feel this way because I listen to all kinds of music, and I eventually got bored with it. VGM was a safe haven for me.

I explained this out some posts ago. Go back and look.

I do too. I probably listen to a bigger varitey of music than you too. Don't think just because I didn't get all positive on Mainstream Music, that it means I don't listen to it or like it. I love all kinds of music. I still consider VGM to be more fresh than it.

If you say so. I personally don't believe that. Mostly because most songs are about romances.

I didn't say it was better. I said I think it's Fresh.

I wasn't refering to you particullarly at all. At least you didn't get all defensive.

I don't know. Mainstream music may appeal more to certain audiences (notably teenyboppers) but I think VGM has gotten just as worn down (not "fresh" anymore) by gamers as 'mainstream music' has by the teenybopper crowd. How many fucking times are we going to hear how "omfg awesome" "One Winged Angel" is? Or about how Nobeou is god and all other composers can 'suck my c0ck cuz nobuo is num. 1'.

There's people who make music less appealing for everyone. When you find yourself on a predominatly gaming-orientated forum, Some people are going to make you wanna throw a rock at them for being so annoying about certain songs or composers. Just like the mainstream crowd would annoy you for raving about the same shit over and over again.

To me, It's all the same shit. Music is Music. Mainstream, 'VGM', whatever. I really don't give a shit one way or the other.

Well, that's a good way to look at it.

I was speaking idiomatically.
