Guest Rambo Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 so what was marf saying? The music was too good for the beatles to make it? Why wouldn't it have been too good for the people who wrote it for them to make? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would rather listen to early caveman chants than Oasis .. they were only around for a decade, and in roughly the last five years of that they pioneered all sorts of studio techniques still used. the use of tape loops in a popular music context, close-miked and slack-tuned kick drums (the first time it really sounded like a KICK imo), the use of orchestra in a popular music, direct-to-desk recording, numerous stereo techniques, backwards guitar/vocal/drums... and lots of other things. and this thread has absolutely nothing to do with oasis. is it rdj's fault flahblub exists? please educate yourself before posting thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Beatles didn't exist, some other band would of done the exact same thing at the exact same time (relatively of course). Not to mention a lot of the most important innovations came from outside that ring of producers (Beachboys, Joe Meek, Phil Spector etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Beatles didn't exist, some other band would of done the exact same thing at the exact same time (relatively of course). idle and irrelevant speculation. what's important is that the beatles were the band who did these things.

Guest Glass Plate Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 oh cool, you didn't mention a single actual innovation by a beatle, but simply popular early uses, good job. Like I said sure they were the big name to help proliferate some ideas, but basically nothing they did became common use because of them. Anything that later became common use would of with or with out them, and every thing else would still have existed, so when it comes to the world of production I stay to my word that The Beatles aren't really much of innovators as much as they were an iconic band during a time of change in general. I'm not saying their music or song writing capabilities aren't good or that they aren't creative folks, I'm just saying don't over do it when placing them as some kind of music style gods, because in the end really the only things that directly spring from their canon of work really is shit like Oasis. (bands/acts like ELO, Queen, Bowie etc. would of experimented with styles in the 70's with or without the Beatles' own experimentation in my theory) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Glass Plate Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Ok way to only read one part of my post, second, those are all uses of THINGS THAT ALREADY EXIST. and the rest of my post explains why that is totally unimportant other than they get a meaningless credit for an early mainstream appearance of it. (which is very trivial, for example the use of a stylophone is space oddity, totally fucking trivial doesn't matter) Popularized reverse guitar solos? they did not do that. etc. etc. kaini you lose ok. No one in the real world credits them for innovating, but for simply being good song writers and later for having the balls to be experimental in the mainstream.

kaini Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 i really recommend this book http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revolution_in_the_Head:_The_Beatles'_Records_and_the_Sixties it does a better job explaining why they were so important than i can Popularized reverse guitar solos? they did not do that. {{citation needed}} kaini you lose ok. i wasn't aware of the fact that this was a pissing contest.
