A question about music.

[Jersey Domino]

What do you all Consider "Good Music"?

Is It music that has a point?

Makes you feel something?

Sing along and Dance?

For me it's about making me feel something. To use my Imagination.If I can do that then the music is good to me.

What about you all?

If I like it, it's good music.

If I don't, it ain't.

I like good production value. Where I can hear many different beats or styles in one piece. I like mixes a lot and can tell if I will like a song in about 15 seconds.

It has to have a balance of everything from production to lyrics, I can like almost any type of music, altho my favourite 3 types are singer-songwriter, dance-pop, alt. rock. Sometimes a good music video helps too.

>>>Where I can hear many different beats or styles in one piece.

Actually, this is one of my bete noires in music, especially when it comes to local unestablished bands. Far too many suffer from what we've termed LDS - Lead Drummer Syndrome. That's when a drummer, apparently feeling lonely back behind his kit, tries to draw attention to himself by playing fast and complicated rhythms that don't do the songs any favors. When I've asked drummers "So what's up with the sixteenth note freakout?", they always say things like "Well, Tool does that." Which yes, they do, but when they're playing "Sober", not when they're playing a song a bit simpler than "Mustang Sally."

I'm a big fan of masturbation myself, but I'd prefer it if you did it in the privacy of your own home rather than onstage behind the drum kit. Just because you can doesn't mean you should. You got three or four other guys on stage looking to you to provide a steady beat - that's probably why they hired you in the first place.
