Darko and doof doof

[Surly Sid]

What's da deal with that John Darko? He listens to that doof doof, and hates Diana Krall.
Whats his deal?

Alright at first I deleted this but I changed my mind. It wasn't the post that made me delete it so much as it was being in Hi-Fi and wanting to keep that section somewhat on topic. So until I can get us an Off-Topic section I've made a command decision to use Music as Off-Topic.

I like John Darko. I have no idea what a doof doof is.

Doof doof is electronic music I think, trance type with a doof doof beat

Anything wrong with electronic music?

A good HiFi should work on anything. Sometimes I play video games with the stereo blasting some dubstep - I like to feel the bass. It's all good.

Doof doof is not audiophiley enough. It's club music for people on ecstasy.

Neither is the thrash I grew up listening to in the 80s. This doesn't keep me from breaking out the Slayer every now and then! 🤘

Actually I like quite a bit of electronic music and some of it is quite well mastered. Both my Fostex headphones were bought with Electronica in mind.

And I like some audiophiley stuff too.

It gets very boring when nearly every reviewer around the world play 'Diana Krall' music to test the equipment... Do they have no music library, just restricted to this artist....................?

 

[Surly Sid]

There is also Nils Lofgren, Hotel California and Dark side of the Moon.

Doof doof is just not audiophile music. It's electronic farts and thumping.

Somehow I think Spanky would do better than BJ in this crisis

I would cancel NOTHING. Life would go on. What's the point of living, if you never leave the house for fear of a few germs and viruses?

Oh Spanky I thought you were better than this. At least you wouldn't say you're "lead by science"

 

[Simon 13th note]

he is right though . Who the hell likes Krall.

 

[oxymoronracing]

You are listening to the wrong doof doof music. Try Apollo 440 (more than one track) which is capable of tying most hi-fi systems up in knots but when you hear them - awesome. Goldfrap is simply awesome and add some Moloko, Groove Armada and Leftfield and you've got a good night I.
