| Ray Charles - "Rap is not music" @davedead +1 @audiovideonirvana no problem. and no chance of me acting adolescent at all anytime I can weave a "That's what she said" into a conversation... | |
| Female vocalist recommendations @curtisvill +1 on Dominque Fils-Aime. beautiful voice and arresting songwriting. @kb54 That Kathleen Edwards title should have garnered way more attention than it did when it was released. | |
| Ray Charles - "Rap is not music" @davedead It is what it is. And as a Deadhead myself, I can call out generational blindness when I see it. | |
| Ray Charles - "Rap is not music" @audiovideonirvana Wow. That really added to the sophistication level of the conversation. Sorry to be snarky, but adolescent quips like that don't strengthen your argument much @shutupuface Yes, rap does fit those criteria. It’s not just a voic... | |
| Female vocalist recommendations @roxy54 thanks for the October project suggestion. I never heard of them before, which kind of surprises me, but they’re right up my alley. Kind of remind me of a cross between All About Eve and Fairport convention | |
| Female vocalist recommendations Erin Bode, Over and Over Julie London Hank Dogs, Bareback Cassandra Wilson, New Moon Daughter And the absolutely beautiful Anne Hills. Start with Angle of the Light | |
| Ray Charles - "Rap is not music" And anapestic beats are in everything including Shel Silverstein, Shakespeare, and KRS-1. I'll take those guys over an obscure 20th century holistic physician. | |
| Ray Charles - "Rap is not music" @tomcy6 Nah. I prefer to keep listening and appreciating lots of different types of music, including rap and Ray Charles (on occasion). @pedroeb Okay, desperately-trying-to-stay-relevant cultural gatekeeper. @emrofsemanon No, Quincy doesn’t haft... | |
| Ray Charles - "Rap is not music" The actual quote is: "“You have to remember I’m a musician,” said the singer-keyboardist who back in the ‘50s did as much as anyone to pry open the body of American pop and inject it with soul. “So rap doesn’t do anything for me; I can’t learn any... | |
| Opinion: Modern country is the worst musical genre of all time To digress, the OP seems to be the same bot who started the REM thread. There's that same app shill in its 2nd post, just like in the REM thread. Sigh. At least we got another four page thread of dog whistles, musical one-upmanship, rap bashing, a... | |
| How much does a DAC do the more expensive it is? I guess my original question was either phrased incorrectly or has been interpreted wrongly. What I'm getting at is more technical for the most part: like, what can more expensive DAC's (which I rationally believe would have better design, parts a... | |
| How much does a DAC do the more expensive it is? In case you're getting the wrong idea, I don't firmly correlate money with quality. Never have, really, for audio components. Case in point; I've loaned out my Herron VTPH-2A phono stage to a friend and have substituted into my system my almost fo... | |
| How much does a DAC do the more expensive it is? @ghdprentice Nice, and @jjss49, I'm not inclined to spend lots of money, relatively speaking, on a component just because it costs lots of money. My initial question was simply was better DACs (using money as a simple metric) would do for increase... | |
| How much does a DAC do the more expensive it is? thanks for all your replies. Money and price were simply the easiest metric for me to use, having been immersed in analog and vinyl up until recently and dependent simply on the 105 before something hinted I should try a Gungnir. It’s going to b... | |
| How much does a DAC do the more expensive it is? @mastering92 Thanks for the comprehensive answer along those points. |
