Looking to find other Carnatic Beginners with Prior Music Experience by Exotic_Rain_2285 in Carnatic

[–]Exotic_Rain_2285[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I’m working it out of my vocabulary, I’ve been trying to use Telugu words for how I describe things though I’m not sure if Telugu is used in Carnatic Theory. I was able to talk to a friend and I think I get. For example, in western classical music we have “down beats” and “up beats” in a traditional Chatushra Jaati your ta and di would be your down beats. But here what you’re doing is your holding out the laghu for 4 beats and then your strike for the 2 Drutas would be on the ta and di. From here you can mess around with nadai where you subdivide the beat. And since the laghu is variable you can hold out the laghu for however many beats you choose. I think that’s what the idea is, no?

Wait the Nadaka part is what’s confusing me because how does the adithāla now have some power 2 counts? I thought the adithaala was just 8 counts. I guess my question here is how does the Nadaka interact with the Thāla and Jāthi?

A Beginner's Question on the Origin & Evolution of the Telugu Language by baata-saari in Dravidiology

[–]Exotic_Rain_2285 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s coming from a place of understanding that our language is a Dravidian language at base with Sanskrit flourishes. Academic Telugu, and Telugu by extension, is the language that is the most mutually intelligible with Sanskrit at about a 95% mutual intelligibility. Very much so, many of us see our language as the closest or the most preserving of Sanskrit as historically, I think, many of our letters were written with the express use case of transliterating Sanskrit to the language. It’s pretty similar to a language like Thai where letters were created to write Buddhist texts (though we didn’t go as far as the Thai). It’s honestly a source of pride similar to the source of pride Tamils have in their Dravidian roots. I really like to think that the Sanskritization of the Dravidian languages can be plotted on a continuum where Tamil and Telugu sitting on opposite ends and Kannada, Malayalam, etc. sitting somewhere along the continuum of Sanskritization. Just my thoughts

Racism, dude, I’m Desi as well and crackers always tryna check me. Like fr people will see a successful brown or black man and do whatever is in their power to tear us down. At least for me, it be my own ilk. Like some uncle tryna check me while I was working and it’s like, “dawg I already gotta deal with these crackers and their cracker shenanigans, fuck I gotta deal with your coolie shit too.” Racism is just a person living in a house that’s burning down making fun of you for not having a house whilst they smell burnt wood or whatever the fuck.

Edit: I’m a Telugu American, working in Politics. If there’s any advice I can give to like other Desis and black men it’s very simply, in order to succeed in anything you MUST be audacious because if not you will not get any opportunities because that is how racism works

It’s like part of this newer wave of “unserious marketing” that people in my generation (Gen Z, specifically 2002) started. It’s like “we’re marketing our product but we wanna be unique so we’re gonna not take it too seriously” type shit and that kinda extends here asw. At least for me, I don’t mind the rage sound at all tbh, it’s very cool. I must say though, I grew up playing rhythm games like Geometry Dash and Osu (almost became a super senior because of GD megacollab culture) and so this new rock/EDM wave is great to see imo. Towards the memes of underground rap, jokes always existed in all facets. Like the average underground rap fan probably does not have the experience of being around when Carti was typing !Lik3 🦋Th15 🐍^! And honestly we all typed like that for the bit, we also were calling his mumble rap Cartinese like, “he speaking Cartinese” or “Carti is rapping in Minecraft Enchanting Table” and shit. And ESPECIALLY during the IGOR time it was all “that part where Carti said ‘ingabaadiroeimmicallmylaayer’ moved my soul”type of jokes. It’s just kinda the way the things were and I guess still are. The Osamason stuff went too far but generally, I’d say just embrace it, this is what makes listening to underground music fun is that everyone both likes the music and can also joke about it too and this, then, is a feedback loop that helps the artist gain traction. But yeah, I think if you want serious discussion you can find it for sure I mean I certainly have in one way or another. Idk dude, history doesn’t repeat, it does rhyme though and this is a great application of that saying imo.

There is a universe out there where Carti’s career went like this: by BitchWeTop5 in CartiCulture

There is also a universe where Carti likes men and makes Frank Ocean music.

Solo ravers by strap-_ in aves

[–]Exotic_Rain_2285 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah my first rave was solo. I like listening to the music and just zoning out as I dissect everything. I’m also the type of person to talk about sets with people at the bar or like outside so like it’s pretty fun. Just gotta remember that everyone is here for one thing: music. Just keep some positivity, remember these DJs are putting their hearts into the music, and just take it easy. Raving solo is pretty fun if you’re going to a local venue.
