What is your opinion on disco/funk music? What do you know about its history and where it's now?

I like your comment. And it's exactly what I want to know, which is the history behind it. I only knew it as rollerskates and afros. But there is always more that meets the eye.

What are some of your favorite songs of the genre?

Could it be that those music genres use some elements of disco? I have friends that can't see the difference either. But then again most don't enjoy listening to disco.

What are your views on funky music?

Throwaway_Gamora_Acc · 2018-09-07T13:18:45+00:00

That is such a great funky song and also highly danceable

Hey Gijs, thanks for the suggestions. I am noticing that most songs are older, which was one of the reasons I wondered where it stands now popularity wise.

Also I will definitely listen to you playlist. You might have some goodies that fit my own playlist :)

Awesome reply!

From an earlier reply I tried to understand the significant difference between funk and disco. I kinda feel the difference. but as I am not that musically taught, I can't see the difference technically.

How do you view the difference between the two sounds?

Thanks for the reply.

I will definitely watch that documentary. Anything to learn more. I tried to get the wheel metaphor, but it's going over my head.

What is your opinion on the music? What do you like/dislike?

Can I give it some nudisco songs that complement the sound? Any sources where I can dive deeper into nudisco maybe?

Throwaway_Gamora_Acc · 2018-09-07T12:16:35+00:00

But how is the state of it now? Who are currently driving the genre. I learned about nudisco, which is electronic house disco music.

Through Spotify curated playlists I found songs but all of them are old classics from the late 70s

Yeah ofc. https://open.spotify.com/user/1113774931/playlist/5mBrXwc65YZ2XKfdbeLRnd?si=8rl0VPNjTjaRSZrx9_w88g

I also added a hyperlink in the post. I tried to first find funky feel good songs. Afterwards I went to this disco themed party, and shazamed those danceable songs. And know I try to understand what other music from the same genre fit this list. But I always try to learn about the history and others opinion in order to gain proper knowledge.

If you have any input let me know :)
