How do you define "epic music?" - Cinematic music that speaks to the soul
How do you define "epic music?" - Cinematic music that speaks to the soul
The answer to this would be good to include in the sidebar so people would have a better idea what’s ok to post.
Epic music is its own genre, but it can also be used to describe music more broadly - music from other genres that evokes a feeling of awe or other strong emotion.
The, uh, other place’s epic music community describes it this way:
“Music that speaks to the soul either lyrically, melodically, instrumentally, aurally, rhythmically, vocally, technologically, emotionally, temporally, or in some other profound way.” (a broad definition that would encompass multiple genres)
What kind of music would you like this community to focus on?
EDIT:
I just came across ascallion's post on [email protected] from 2 months ago where they described it as Cinematic music that speaks to the soul.
That description answers my question.
You're viewing a single thread.
The post was mostly aimed at [email protected], but hearing what the community wants might help them to decide as well.
My vote would be for a broader definition.
- Less headaches for mods, since they wouldn’t have to worry about users who unknowingly post non-genre music. Also, it isn’t always easy to know if a song belongs in the genre.
- Users wouldn’t have to worry about whether a song they have in mind fits, making participating easier and less stressful.
- I think it would appeal to more people, since (I assume) most people would visit the community having a broad/descriptive definition in mind, leading to more community growth.
- There’s far more music that can be shared, leading to more diversity in the posted music.
Thanks for this, finally getting my shit together. I've updated the sidebar to accept epic music in the broader sense.
Since you're more on top of things, if you want to be a mod of this community, let me know.
Good to see you're back!
Nice job with the update.
I appreciate the offer but I've tried being a mod in the past and have come to realize I'm just not suited for it.
