Happens to me all the time with music. Be jamming out to a song I've loved for years, right when my fav. artist dropped the album. Then tiktok plays the one hook from one song on their album and people always ask "Oh! Did you hear that on tikTok?!" .... No...no....no ๐Ÿ™„

Oh, no

Oh, no

Oh, no, no, no, no, no

That has happened to me so much in recent years, both with clipped songs and bands/artists I like becoming popular. I don't hold myself with any music pretention, and the vast majority of my "underground" discoveries are just random chance and Spotify algorithm. There is no way I have found to explain "no, I've been listening to them since [insert album]" that hasn't been met with some form of hipster comment.

"I'm not intentionally trying to be better than you, I just happen to be better than you at finding good music on my own"

Oh wait you said not be met with a hipster comment

I mean, there's definitely a skill to finding new good music. I'm not very good at it but I wish I was, it's kind of difficult.

[-] LinkOpensChest_wav@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 11 months ago

My experience has been different. There's such a wealth of good music out there that I hardly know where to stop. Almost every time I see an artist perform, I want to buy their album.

Now, finding new good music that's also popular is another thing.

Or maybe I legit have bad taste in music, but if so I'm ok with that because I'm having fun.

[-] Donkter@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

I think it's definitely possible that the range of music you like is wider than mine, which is definitely not a bad thing. I guess that's part of my problem, I know how to find a lot of music, but I don't enjoy a lot of music i find.

I also tend to latch onto certain things and become a bit obsessive. For example, I've listened to pretty much everything recorded by Asian Man Records since like the 90s haha

The only genre of music I don't much care for is pop country, and there are even exceptions to that

Maybe you don't have to tell people anything at all about how you discovered good music?

"Oh, did you hear about them on TikTok?"

What?

"TikTok. You probably heard that song on TikTok."

Oh ok. I really like their new album. I also enjoy [insert other music you like].

"Yeah, I heard it on TikTok. I really love the 20 version I've heard replayed thousands of times."

Cool. Have a good day.

Just have your favorite band not release a new album for a decade. cries in streetlight manifesto

[-] mihnt@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

Happened to me with Sleep Token.

[-] Vespair@lemm.ee 2 points 11 months ago

And why does that impact your enjoyment? Did the song change? Did your ears change?

It sounds like you care too much about the opinions and experiences of others.

[-] lemmy@linkopath.com 2 points 11 months ago

I guess that must be the only reason.
