Tiesto is over-rated. Listen to this version, it is MUCH MUCH better.

It's not replacement, it's an appreciation of the baton in a new way.
Quote from: Golden Clock;1689135Rubbing my buttcheeks in food doesn't make me enjoy its flavour in a new way
Well that's your opinion I guess.
This is why you should never do ecstasy in a concert hall. This has about as much class as the thong song.
Quote from: Golden Clock;1689139Furthermore, techno music focuses more on beat and rhythm, whereas classical's main focus is harmony and melody.

God damn you all are so fucking serious.
Quote from: Golden Clock;1689142what's so funny?
Tell me Peer Gynt has no rhythm. Tell me Metronomy's "What Do I Do Now?" has no melody. Tell me you have the credentials to make sweeping generalizations about the two most general umbrella genres in popular classification.

why is that funny?
Regardless of generalizations of genres, the song in the OP's post sounded more like a simple juxtaposition of classical music and techno beats, which I find just sounds ridiculous.
Couldn't they involve the melodies a little bit more with the song?...
Quote from: Golden Clock;1689146I said 'main' and 'more'.
In my eyes, that's just another way of saying what you want without having to qualify it. No one can really contest it so long as you're vague enough.
QuoteIf I were to do that, I'd be ignoring Waltzes and things like that.
It's not just a lesser subset of classical with a focus on the beat, or techno on melody. Just maybe what you've heard. Beat and melody are two basic features of music. To me it comes off like you're generalizing the composers from both genres as deeply neglectful in the structure of their music because of a post hoc impression of the intent of all of the genres from the classical period and a bystander's impression of techno music.

Yeah, I'm not going to listen to it.
Quote from: Golden Clock;1689152It's all a different mindset is what I'm trying to communicate.
I understand that, but you're assuming the homogeneity of the mindsets and intentions of composers across almost 500 years, assuming a modern definition, and about 100 years for techno, which its self has its origins in classical music.
QuoteI'm just saying that which is more pronounced and focused on.
I don't believe such a tendency really exists, though. I believe it's merely the cultural images of what the genres are about, which biases our assumptions of a composer from that genre's intentions.

Um... isn't that the whole point of a genre?

bing bing bing!
and again Loki doubts me on knowing how to judge music
Quote from: SockpuppetClock;1689166Um... isn't that the whole point of a genre?
No. The point of a genre is to classify artforms based on common themes, methods, periods, etc., that is, on the similarities of the works of art themselves, not on the popular impression of a subgroup is. Compare hardcore punk music, a genre, with the '80s "punk" cultural concept.
Quoteand again Loki doubts me on knowing how to judge music
I didn't know you were wavy gravy. And I didn't even say he doesn't know how to judge music, I just said he's not qualified to make sweeping generalizations about 5 centuries of music. Note that I'm taking issue with those specific statements of his, not his opinion of this song in particular. I agree with the fast adagio statement, which is all I really can feel either way about because I am not going to listen to the song.
Quote from: ᛚᚮᚴᛁ᛫ᚴᛚᚢᚴᚴᛆ;1689151Yeah, I'm not going to listen to it.
You're not missing much. Very, very, very generic rave music. Imagine if somebody just came along and chopped up some random Darude song and stuck little segments of classical music in. It even starts out with the cliched thumping beat, then WHHHHHOOOOOOOSSSSSHHHHH and it goes all quiet and the classical music starts.
