Oink Invites

2) Basically, rockism is the basis of how music evolved to what it is today. It started out with people doing it for the fun of it. This was the case for a while, until big bands became 'big bands.' This created a new kind of music with new flow. Everyone is now trying to "get big" with music, when they need to look back to the roots. Yes, this has created new great music. For the most part, people need to 'feel' their music more than want money for it. It's nice to make money from doing something you love, but the money starts to take over. Now, people will always get money and prize for their music, but we still have to remember the one's that don't.

4) Sufjan is soo legit. One of my favorite songs of all time is Chicago. He just recently came out with a new Christmas album, and it's pretty good. He is known for his lyrically focused and instrumentally rich songs that often relate to faith and family. Stevens has enjoyed wide critical success in the United States. His music is different then most stuff coming out mainstream right now, and I like that a lot. I've been listening to him since he first started back in 99, and I still do.
4) Just one

was this dude real or a faker? not many people from charlotte post on ilx :/

What is rockism? Rockism is the idea of using synths in pro tools. This idea is all about the composer or producer of the album. They use this technique in pop music alot, and its also a way that people can express them selves. This rockism is a great help to crappy bands to make there sucky music sound better. Anyway basically this idea improves the cd by adding fake sounds, which makes the music more rockin'. Whenever I record music in my studio, i have to confess that I too use this technique or method, but its the future people!

Rockism is an ideology of popular music criticism, originating in the British music press in the late 1970s or early 1980s.[citation needed] The fundamental tenet of rockism is that some forms of popular music, and some musical artists, are more authentic than others. More specifically, authentic popular music fits the rock and roll paradigm; it is made using the basic rock instrumentation of guitars, bass guitars and drums, and fits the structures of a rock and roll song.
Rockism is suspicious of the use of technology, from synthesizers to Pro Tools-style computer-based production systems. Rockism places value on the idea of the composer and performer as auteur; authentic music is composed as a sincere form of self-expression, and usually performed by those who composed it.

2)rockism means idolizing the authentic old legend (or underground hero) while mocking the latest pop star.lionizing punk while barely tolerating disco.loving the live show and hating the music video. extolling the growling performer while hating the lip-syncher.its supicous of the use of technicological electronicly composed music be it using protools,reason,fl studio ya know what ever the case may be. its about the authenication of the music.its about staying true to the genre's musical roots. in my opinion thats what rockism is.

4)sufjan stevens is AMAZING! he plays something like twenty-six instruments. writes intelligent lyrics. and has a beautiful passionate somewhat bitter-sweet voice. sufjan stevens is the sort of musician you have to admit is good even if you don't like his music. I like his music immensely. his music is for when you have time to sit and listen i mean really sit there listen deeply. its very musically complex and i think thats one of the things i like so much about it. i always notice something extra each time i listen to one of his songs that i didnt notice before.

5) just one invite please

2)Rockism is a blood-covered prom-date with fire in its heart. Rockism won't quit until it has vacuumed and sponged every ounce of raw, unadulterated talent left in the world and pissed it back out as mindless, shrink-wrapped tripe. Rockism answers to no one and makes no apologies. Take Rockism out for a nice chicken dinner, tell Rockism that it looks great in those pleather chaps, write Rockism a poem, Rockism will never call you back. Rockism will never let you win at your favorite boardgame. Make no mistake about it, Rockism is a formidable opponent. Find the chink in Rockism's armor. Flip Rockism over to expose Rockism's soft underbelly. Rockism-this is gonna hurt you more than it's gonna hurt me.

2) Rockism is suspicious of the use of technology, from synthesizers to Pro Tools-style computer-based production systems. Rockism places value on the idea of the composer and performer as auteur; authentic music is composed as a sincere form of self-expression, and usually performed by those who composed it. This is as opposed to the notion of manufactured "pop" music, created in assembly line fashion by teams of hired record producers and technicians and performed by pop stars who have little input into the creative process, designed to appeal to a mass market and make profits rather than express authentic sentiments.

Rockism is a primitivist ideology; a subtext of rockism is that, at one time in history, they "got music right", and that all subsequent innovations have compromised this purity. (This golden age is often placed sometime during the 1960s or 1970s.) Critics of rockism assert that this vaunted "golden age" of pure, authentic music is a myth, and that popular music never was entirely free of the interference of commercialism, marketing and commodification
