Exposé - I don't think you're a real Doctor.

Likewise I'm beginning to suspect that neither are Dr(s). Awkward & Venkman. I understand the importance of them checking my prostate but twice a week, every week? Come on!


Ah, but read the rest of my moniker...do i claim to be what you say?

In any case, sorry to muck up the thread but NB's pompousness coupled with innaccuracy brings out the worst in me some days.

Venkman is Dr. Wu.

Please stop. Really. You´ve proven time and again that you know shit-all about music history, been called out on it, and yet you continue to portray yourself as some sort of authoritative source, constantly.


Give me a break. You're totally misconstruing what I said.

I'm not portraying myself as some sort of "authoritative source," and nowhere did I say that those bands were the only ones to work with that idea. I just mentioned them to point out examples of what I was talking about.

Christ, relax.

There are no "wrong" notes anyway. Any note juxtaposed with any other note can spark something interesting. Sonic Youth taught us that. So did DNA and Ornette Coleman and Merzbow or who have you. You just have to train your nervous system to respond to them.

Edit: B52s S/T is Not Crap, Not Crap, Not Crap.


NerblyBear isn't describing pantonality; he's simply describing how it's possible to shift our peception of consonant and dissonant intervals based on context. In all honesty, if anyone "tought" us that, it was the medieval English. Their choirs began using tertian harmony, which was considered "dissonant" compared to the "organum duplum" harmonies, consisting of perfect fourths and fifths, that were used in Gregorian chants. Of course, tertian harmony has long since been considered the sanctum sanctorum of consonance.

P.S. That album is very NOT CRAP. Never has gay camp rocked so hard.
