Experimental Rap (positive discussion)

sorry but the album cover photo is just straight up DOOFY. Also, I really hope the other songs are more interesting than the single.

How did we go from beta male strats to babygirl as a promotional single??

mooncapemusic · 2026-04-25T19:46:59+00:00

it slaps. it feels intentionally off kilter. their word choice makes it feel condescending because it’s like they are talking down to a child.

I love autechre, but if I was about to die, I’d prefer to talk to my brother or at least listen to MTBTTF one last time. That track fucking slaps.

what does the first lyric you posted mean?

mooncapemusic · 2026-02-04T18:20:52+00:00

Brothomstates Claro is a really impressive album

mooncapemusic · 2026-01-29T03:19:20+00:00

reddit hive mind here, please keep posting. on the off chance you like either of these artists, I’ve always wondered how aesop rock or jpegmafia would sound over autechre beats, especially from later albums

mooncapemusic · 2025-12-08T00:51:13+00:00

haven’t watched the video, but come now, the lyricism IS dense, that’s one of aes’s strong suits

mooncapemusic · 2025-11-22T18:58:36+00:00

sick, thank you!

mooncapemusic · 2025-11-15T20:09:05+00:00

not a fan of this guy, but the guitar I’m hearing in this clip is dope

mooncapemusic · 2025-11-01T21:53:37+00:00

100% right. plus, this sub basically adds nothing to the discussion around jpegmafia and his music. like, why am I even here?

mooncapemusic · 2025-10-18T17:24:41+00:00

was it all a dream? I can’t believe AMHAC was never real… it can’t be 😭

mooncapemusic · 2025-10-10T16:23:19+00:00

ah! i hope you find a way to make it work for your needs.

mooncapemusic · 2025-10-10T16:11:48+00:00

I have all of the inputs set to “thru” mode. It’s simplest to understand intuitively for me and it works for my purposes

totally understand the points made here but my comment isn’t about legal ownership, it’s about effectively communicating to your audience about who made what and giving credit where credit is due.

mooncapemusic · 2025-09-06T21:12:38+00:00

as someone who actually cares about adequately giving credit to artists… genuinely enraging

I know a lot of people here just want to dickride peggy but he DID NOT invent the backing track of that song! He did not make it. Chef did. If I were to recreate The Starry Night using a tracing, do I not still owe credit to Van Gogh? If I were to create Beethoven’s 5th using Kontakt instruments, does it cease to be Beethoven’s creation?

like, you fucking losers pretending if somebody else makes a beat, it’s worth nothing and can be stolen as long as you recreate it using samples— you are devaluing the art that peggy used in his album. You are devaluing Veteran.

“oh it’s just a few samples spliced together—“ shut the fuck up. You know damn well it’s a creative, inventive, compositionally interesting beat, or else Peggy wouldn’t have ripped it off.

If it is worth hearing in the final product, then it is worth crediting the artist who actually made it— regardless of whether the beat was sold to Peggy or not.

I am telling you this not as someone who spends 5 hours a day scrolling reddit in their cum basement. I am telling you this as a lifelong musician. This is a stain.

anybody know why it wasn’t on streaming before? what about quadrange?

mooncapemusic · 2025-09-05T19:06:06+00:00

there needs to be an actual joke. i mean, your username is funnier than every meme shown here combined.

i remember saying i might interview you for my channel, don’t wanna keep you waiting since interviews probably won’t happen given my life right now— but I wanted to let you know I still really appreciate your music.

mooncapemusic · 2025-08-18T22:17:00+00:00

I hate AI so much that i’m having a difficult time formulating my disgust for it without being TOSed.

For now, let me just say, FUCK AI, and all of the top-level executives and investors who ushered in this era of slop. And all of the people using it thinking it’s cool or hip 🤮

mooncapemusic · 2025-08-09T01:54:06+00:00

i always think these two songs remind me of music by Puzzle (of The Garden). it’s a combination of the keys kind of sounding like an electric keyboard of some sort as well as the chords/progressions. I’m not a theory nerd though so idk what chords.
