Very informative (and funny!) video about West Asian (especially Iranian) music and what Orientalist music gets wrong from an actual Iranian musician.

Whether you want to call your music "not jazz" and outside of western music theory, or say that "jazz" itself is reductive and black classical music is a better term, it's an interesting conversation

Inspired by the weekly reading thread by @Saymaz@lemmygrad.ml, I've decided to begin posting a weekly listening thread as a space to discuss things we've been listening to recently.

So, have at it! Popular or classical, western or non-western, communist or even anti-communist, feel free to mention any and all kinds of music here.

If you have a racist friend
Now is the time, now is the time for your friendship to end

Be it your sister
Be it your brother
Be it your cousin or your, uncle or your lover

If you have a racist friend
Now is the time, now is the time for your friendship to end

Be it your best friend
Or any other
Is it your husband or your father or your mother?

Tell them to change their views
Or change their friends
Now is the time, now is the time, for your friendship to end

So if you know a racist who thinks he is your friend
Now is the time, now is the time for your friendship to end

Call yourself my friend?
Now is the time to make up your mind, don’t try to pretend

Be it your sister
Be it your brother
Be it your cousin or your uncle or your lover

So if you are a racist
Our friendship has got to end
And if your friends are racists don’t pretend to be my friend

So if you have a racist friend
Now is the time, now is the time for our friendship to end

Goodbye

I hear even rap is being taken over by AI.

So it goes with Dungeon Synth genre.

This is not AI though, luckily.

Salesmen like Stockhausen... would have you believe that the world is an illusion. Then are the millions of oppressed and exploited people simply another aspect of that illusion? No they aren't. The world is real, and so are the people, and they are struggling toward a tremendous revolutionary change. Cage and Stockhausen say "everything that lives is holy," so don't walk on the grass, and above all don't harm a hair on the head of an imperialist.
