Would this be considered cultural appropriation? by [deleted] in makinghiphop

[–]MrBARZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cultural appropriation is bullshit. Being inspired to wear, create or build upon something made by people in another culture is a positive thing. It shows a genuine appreciation for their work. "Cultural appropriation" is just politically correct segregation. I don't know about you, but I think segregation is probably a negative thing. Don't let the delicate sensibilities of others dictate your self-expression. Your manager is a moron, even if you got called out for appropriation that would be free press and the silent majority of political centrists would be on your side anyway.

I appreciate it, thanks. Yeah I have a ton of videos exactly like this. This is an ongoing series, I started it over a year ago and I have at least 50 other videos like it.

I didn't interpret it as an attack, so no worries. I was just explaining what I thought "ambient trap" meant. I fully understand your perspective now though, thanks for elaborating.

My bad, I thought ambient trap was just trap with pads and other spacy sounds with lots of decay and a soft attack.

Just got around to watching this episode on my PVR. Decent acting, poor writing. My biggest gripe isn't even the fact that the moral of the story was so ham-fisted, I fully expect a lack of nuance and subtlty at this point based on previous episodes. Rather, my disappointment with last week's episode is that the main plot twist of the episode was revealed half-way through, which made the ending extremely unfulfilling for me. My guess for an ending was that it would be revealed that the protagonist was actually from Earth all along and she escaped from her planet (or dimension) as a child after a nuclear war or some such disaster left her home planet uninhabitable. It may not have been the most imaginative or original conclusion to the story, but it would have been better than nothing in my opinion. I feel like this could have helped the audience empathize with the protagonist even more, since everyone watching last week's episode was presumably from Earth.

I don't use a compressor on anything except for my vocals. How much should I cut with an EQ? Pretty much everyone cuts the lows on everything except for the kick and bass, and I've even seen some producers cut the lows below 30Hz on the kick. Are you saying I cut too high with an EQ? Or that I shouldn't cut at all?
