Remember when Blu released that noYork track list that was all lowercase with random underlines and uppercase letters? GOAT aesthetic
e.e cummings OUT NOW
i disagree, i dont think theres anything wrong with music production software being readily accessible to the masses. music isnt some artifact that should be locked away in a box just for certain groups to access
the real problem is with lack of originality
idk how this got 4 likes
I dont believe theres anything inherently wrong with a higher degree of access to music making means or unicase titles. But i put a negative spin on it cause you were complaining about the titles.
If originality can be measured with the amount of occurrences throughout history (lower amount being more original), then you could probably say that unicase titles are in fact more original than normal case.
I would blame a lack of creativity rather than a lack of originality (just because i like to get into semantics) - why should people still be using static music formats anyway? We live in a digital age and dont have to bind information to inanimate objects. We've grown beyond the need for mp3s and metadata, why use titles at all?
In the end the main reason is money. The easier it is to put into a package, the easier it is to sell. I can't wait until AI revolutionises art.
hieroglyphic titles when
Someone gonna release tracklist in Wingdings at some point
social media fried yall brains, calling anything a meme
Delusional people at an all time high
social media fried yall brains, calling anything a meme
but this phenomenon actually is - by definition - a meme
in fact it is more of a meme than what is normally considered a meme today

you’re wrong
how is aesthetic if everyone is doing it
surely the aesthetic thing at this point is to have normal capitalisation
Aesthetic doesn’t mean different or unique
And I’d argue although the all upper / lower case is way more prevalent now, just as many artists use normal text if you count all genres
you guys find the most menial f***ing things to complain about
like do you actually care about some f***ing letters?
I actually like this thing, it helps making the aesthetic of an artist (or a group of artists) more consistent
Also if I'm in a "all uppercase" album I know to expect maybe something aggressive, something all over the place, while with "all lowercase" I expect calmer music, maybe slower, more reflective, etc.
I actually can't imagine albums from the Slums Collective without the all lowercase capitalization
It's one of those little details that make everything better imho
