I hate that this is like the 'Kind of Blue' of onkyo (the one that people with only a vague interest in the genre will likely have heard) because there's much better stuff out there i reckon idk.
not that i dislike this though!

ha i agree
but with the aforesaid objection in mind i think the same could be said about Quartet, vulgar contexts such as this are prone to breed several divergant 'collectively'-permeable opinions so.

nowdays i also think that there's unquestionable beauty in silence, the absence of sound, because it doesn't serve as music
which can be concretelly heard but that can nevertheless be abstractly registered. we don't owe to hear remembrance, via the
acoustic movement of time and desire, because silence really is the unpicturable sound itself of disappearance.

Interesting, I much much prefer Quartet to this (obviously)!
I take your point but offer a further objection; the albums ubiquity in the onkyo scene means that this is most peoples launching point into the genre, but as well as not being it's best it's far from the most accessible piece there is (I can't imagine anyone being off-put by Off Cells' 60/40 or the Saritote series, for example)

well, don't disregard the community-aspect of onkyo friendly websites like rateyourmusic and -ihatemusic forums. erstwhile records has sold three-digit numbers of wax n electro acoustic stash over the past few years, and it's kinda amazing isn't it, to be honest this same structural taste fellowship has established stuff parameters and made albums such as these iconic.
Good Morning Good Night is one of the 'hardest' supposedly 'entry lvl' albums out there, and I assert the notion that Saritote/SaritoteII (or Semi-Impressionism/Opposite) imo) would drip more reasonably as introductory treetops.

Well said Gian! I have qualms with the way onkyo is presented in general; it has this constructed allure around it that says 'this is an inaccessible genre and i am an ubermensch/important-person/special-snowflake/patrician (if that's still the buzzword in fashion) for enjoying it' when the truth is that that's disingenuous; a lot of it isn't inaccessible or unenjoyable by any means (it took me a lot longer to 'get' Spiderland than 'get' Semi-Impressionism, say). This goes back to a fanbase that are obsessed with their own obscure tastes.
(Not that this is indicting you Gian! I may not know you well but i know you're genuine and always willing to share  ))) )

and yes the avant-teen/gay aesthetic always been ridiculous to me too but then again that's one with rym alignment so people who are in engagement are also a paradoxic-disengage

"it has this constructed allure around it that says 'this is an inaccessible genre and i am an ubermensch/important-person/special-snowflake/patrician (if that's still the buzzword in fashion) for enjoying it"
Especially when you begin to notice how people tend to gravitate towards certain albums like String Quartet No. 2 (FLUX Quartet), Divine Music From a Jail, Intimate Rituals, Quartet, and 百代・中国時代曲名典 (The Legendary Chinese Hits) in unanimous praise, it becomes questionable how genuine alot of these "opinions" are.

Exactly Mr. Tornado (although I do genuinely love Quartet, promise!). And don't even get me started on Divine Music From a Jail jesus christ way to erase an entire tradition of throat singing by focusing on the one album you bothered to check out in order to look wordly and cultured
