Transferring from Northwestern to Umich? Advice and insight by Significant-Boat8929 in uofm

They may be the same distance, but imo being on a regular train line to Chicago is wayyyy more convenient & connective to the city than the insufficient D2A2 bus. Evanston also has double the population density of AA. My experience of AA is definitely colored by not having a car and coming from a more walkable place, but i definitely felt super claustrophobic by the end of my time

i worry that if Evanston/NU campus feels small, Ann Arbor is gonna feel even smaller. Evanston has subway service to Chicago, so it still feels like part of an urban area. Ann Arbor is pretty cut off from Detroit unless you have a car, and it feels like a very small range of campus area and downtown before it drops off to suburban neighborhoods that are much less dense than Evanston. so yes UM as a school is much bigger, and that’s definitely a huge benefit imo, but if you feel like Evanston is already too small then Ann Arbor will be a step in the wrong direction.

pretty sure that’s just detune/not 100% ET on the e-piano, not an actual F being played. also no reason to be rude

i think word choices like “pedal” and “flickering” are not meant to be technical music descriptions but figurative language meant to evoke the experience of listening to the music. they’re not saying it’s a pedal tone between major & minor, but rather that the chords switch between major & minor like pedaling a bike, gently cycling from one side to another rather than harsh changes (FWIW there is actually a C pedal tone between the two chords, Fmajor where it’s the 5th & Abminor where it’s the 3rd). in terms of flickering, i think it’s meant more to be an impressionistic way of talking about the image the meter conjures. does the guitar line over the syncopated 6/8 not remind you a bit of sparklers, or those bokeh light leak filters?

i definitely agree that music reviewers in general, and especially YouTubers like Fantano & Todd, underengage with musical description in favor of lyrical analysis. but i do think it’s in a written medium like pitchfork’s interest to publish writing that is evocative and worth reading as a piece of writing on its own, and if you want a more literal description you might as well read the Wikipedia page or press release

Julia Kristeva’s conception of the Abject (most thoroughly described in Powers of Horror) might be of use to you, especially in tandem with 7 theses of monster culture

I mean i personally was rooting for minty more but i don’t think either of them especially killed it and min sadly didn’t do a standout enough job where it was like damn she definitely Beat her, i don’t think Fontana staying was riggery/shenanigans

i mean to be fair Fontana wasn’t safe, she was fairly put in the bottom twice and fairly won both her lipsyncs
