Do a walrus and I promise I’ll send in the most ‘extreme’ music I already own and like. Double dare!
Anyway, all you delicate flowers can rest easy - there’s no more ‘avant-garde’ entries from me to come. At least I wouldn’t say so. Fingers crossed jalfrezi has dropped something, and I’m hoping cassette might be a dark horse too - maybe his brother has taken over for a round or something.
Well damn, the last thing I expected was to get actually like for real triggered itt, and by one of my favorite people itf, but here we are.
More specifically,
…
I have a feeling this is gonna end with me OK Boomering some people.
I don’t think that’s actually even real music. Where are the guitars?

I’m just on auto heart all 6ix complaint posts.
Just got asked at work what I was laughing about. 
Ok, considering I spent 45 minutes playing with GIFs it might be obvious I’m not actually triggered, but, I’m gonna make a numbered list to seem more stern and Srs Biz.
Some of the ‘triggered’ GIFs out there might cause seizures.
Along with poker, I’ve made my living as an audio mixing engineer for most of this century. It doesn’t really come up but I’ve alluded to it at various times, during the Nirvana discussion, Michael Moore discussion, when I explained laurel/yanny, etc. I know what is a cover and what is a remix, also what is both and what is neither.
Wait, I’m supposed to break this into numbers.
This track is both a cover and a remix, but enough of an actually fairly straightforward cover that I submitted it. I cheated in 2 other categories and told you, lol, so it’s not something I’d try to hide just to shoehorn in a track I wanted to share.
I need some padding to get to nun-length.
Certain non-boomer genres just call everything a remix even when it’s not accurate. Srsly, they think it’s hip and cool. ‘Covers’ and ‘remakes’ and ‘reinterpretations’ are for boomers. OK MILLENNIAL.
Um.
Ok, the only actual serious thing, what bordered on causing the TMNT triggering, is that your comment had a whiff of “electronic music isn’t real music” to it. Like, this could have it’s own numbered list but… OK why not:
8a. People with guitars make music but apparently electronic musicians turn on their computers and press a button and voila. An electric guitar is just an organic MIDI controller.
8b. I wish boomers knew about all the electronics involved that made their precious Led Beetles or whatever sound the way they did.
8c. This didn’t need to be a sublist if I’m not going Srs Biz, lol.
6ix knows what he’s talking about, so I’m changing my entry to this. Expect to win it now.
this is just Total Eclipse Of The Heart with a filter bitcrusher, ring modulator, and granular tempo shift on it.
no srsly I think that’s all it is but I’m not gonna A/B with the original to compare
And sprinkled with genius.
(I don’t mean to undermine your point, I just wanted to post some ‘annoying’ music)
cover vs remix vs both vs neither challenge
lol don’t worry, i got the vibe
You could basically include any song Tom Morello plays in as a guitar riff.
Also I have no idea what this walrus thing is, but this covers 4 and 5.
Seriously if this doesn’t get you moving, you’re a quadriplegic.
I have no idea what’s going on, but here’s a very good cover.
And an even better cover.
And this dual cover, where sympathy for the devil comes in at 4:05 is, imo, the apex of covers.
Though Nirvana unplugged has like 4 classic covers, and NINs cover of Joy Divisions Dead Souls is also sublime.
And also Radiohead’s rarely heard cover of Ceremony which starts like 1 minute into this vid.
Also, of course, Talking Heads doing Take me to the River.
Well, if I went with my 2nd pick I could’ve avoided Coverremixgate:
Well, for me master’s OP conjured up dancing so I thought of modernish ‘dance music’, one of my loves. I also love old swing,
and Fats Domino,
but nobody is doing the foxtrot or going to the sockhop these days.
Seems like people who didn’t participate in the Walrus shouldn’t roll in dumping music all over the thread mid-reveal. Am I being a grumpy walrus?
I was thinking the same thing…so much confusion!
