why wouldn't you care about time signatures? obviously weird time signatures aren't necessary to make good music, but why would you immediately disregard an integral part of the musical language?

giving a shit about them shows an understanding of the underlying framework that helped create a piece of music, just like knowing an artists background can give you some context...

>>45501619
in a time signature, half notes and quarter notes have different durations. seeing as music necessarily exists in time, duration is a pretty big deal.

bars lines dont have musical meaning, they are just one of the tools used to organize the written music.

if you are just "calling" something a half note or quarter note while explaining a piece of music, you are right, it doesn't change anything. all it does is demonstrate your ignorance of theory and form.

for a music board it sure seems like nobody here actually likes anything but the end result of the musical process.

kind of true. music has a physical effect on the human body. things like 6/8 and 3/4 can sound the same, but the time signatures themselves have entirely separate accent patterns.

the accent patterns and the way a composer uses (or chooses to disregard) the downbeat means things. abstracting time signatures into a world where they have no musical meaning is stupid. they are tools and frameworks to create music with.

i never understood why people were so keen on separating music theory from the actual music. whats the point in that?

>> No.45502224

You don't get it. The "who" is supposed to be a pick-up note, meaning it happens before the measure, and sea lasts for three 8th notes.
It's in 12/8

The next measure goes sponge(3)-bob(3)-square(3)-pants(2)-ab-(1). Then it goes into the next measure with "-sorbent"

Tap your foot while listening to a typical pop song. That's the beat.

Now try to spot regular patterns that seem to be repeated a certain number of beats. Generally the drums are a great indication of that. If you start counting "one two three four, one two three four" on the beat, do you find relatively similar events in the rhythm of the song occuring on the "one"?

If not, try counting "one two three one two three", and see if it works better.

You want to find how much you need to count until some particular stuff always happens on the "one". I mean the smallest number, of course, don't start counting to 16 because that's when the verse starts again or something. Just pick the lowest possible division.

Yes.

Most of the time this sort of stuff is written in 4/4 even if it means having to write triplets. Why? I don't know, because most people find it easier to think in 4/4 than in 12/8, and even if it seems more practical to you to write 8th notes everywhere, triplets are pretty fucking easy to read on a score, and generally you try to avoid deviating from 4/4 or 3/4 as much as you can.

It *can* be enjoyed, but you definitely enjoy it more if you know the makings. Just like food, just like cinema, just like books, painting. Just like every goddamn creative activity in the world, you ALWAYS enjoy it more when you know about how it's made, and even more when you actually do it yourself.

People who claim that knowledge doesn't influence how much you enjoy something are just lying to themselves so they feel better about their ignorance. If you want to enjoy music more, learning about how to make music will help you.

That's the cold, sad truth. If you don't learn, you won't enjoy as much as you potentially could. Now if you think learning isn't worth enjoying things more, fine, but please don't pretend that knowledge doesn't help you enjoy things.

I'm pretty sure each syllable is a 16th triplet note in 4/4
Who is a pick up note so start counting on "Lives"

1 - Lives-in-a
2 - pine-app-le
3 - un-der-the
4 - sea (2 3)
And so on.
4/4 time, somewhere around 110 bpm. 16th triplets can get confusing but there's no doubt that it's in 4/4.
For the quarter note count, listen to the kids yelling "SPONGBOB SQUAREPANTS". Each syllable represents a quarter note of the beat.
1 - SPONGE
2 - BOB
3 - SQUARE
4 - PANTS
pick up note - If
5 - nau-ti-cal
6 - non-sense-be
7 - some-thing-you
8 - wish (2 3)

Hope this clears stuff up

to be completely fair, everybody in the world likes music and everybody can perceive things differently.

stepping away from music theory for a moment, say you like j dilla. i can listen to donuts and appreciate the fact that stuff is sampled. i dont know where all the samples are from, but i realize it is a sample based piece of work.

somebody else might know where all the samples are from and they can get the same level of enjoyment out of it as i do. i would contest the fact that they would enjoy it more than I based on their knowledge of the sampled material.

following that logic, somebody who is wholly UNAWARE that anything off of donuts can also enjoy it at the same level as either myself or the dude who knows every single sample.

my beef is with the people who actively enjoy music and have no interest in furthering their knowledge of the subject. enjoyment level has nothing to do with it. if you like it why wouldnt you want to know things about it?

like i said, enjoyment level or having fun isn't the only reason. if you really have an interest in something, you would want to know as much about it as possible because it matters to you on a more significant level then having fun and passing the time.

if you truly have and interest in something, all parts of that thing would be interesting and enjoyable to some degree.

also we're not talking about cars. we are talking about music.

really understanding music theory is an arduous task. it is also not necessary to understand it to enjoy music. i find it helpful to have knowledge of music theory to discuss music.

90% of songs that try to sound "epic" (lots of orchestral sounds, choirs, etc), or new-agey are written in B major. I can't really describe it that well, but songs in B major always sound the same. songs in C and G major are often lazily written with boring chord progressions

I doubt what you're saying is true, but it is possible since C major and G major are babby's first key signatures and where your hands naturally gravitate on a piano since they use so few accidentals. So as a result a lot of stuff will be written in those key signatures and produce a lot more songs with basic I-V-vi-IV chord progressions or plagal cadences.
