A fixation on dance-related concepts and subjects
 
So, who else besides myself on 3DMM.COM has a fixation with dance music, dance parties, music genres that are marketed for dance atmospheres, breakdancing (and just dancing in general)?

Because there are many dance-related virtues about myself that many peers of mine dishonor!

But isn't it ironic how I try to keep sexuality separate from this fixation?

Orcus 11-17-2009 09:12 PM

That reads more like someone trying to be Clinton than Clinton himself. What the hell is going on?

Roadkill Dave 11-17-2009 09:15 PM

It was inevitable. He's become a self-parody.

Samurai Clinton 11-17-2009 09:21 PM

Well Orcus, after several traumatizing years on topics concerning music and dancing; I just want some sympathy.

I have had a great deal of sneaky suspicion on people acting like they honor a virtue or concept of mine when they really don't. I am also under suspicion that my parents do not honor a dancefloor in their living room even though they allowed it on my 16th birthday. You see, my parents have been so hard on me about wanting to have parties after that; which is why I am now relying on other people to plan parties to invite me to.

But hopefully, a friend of mine will let me use their house for a party of mine in hopes that I circumvent unreasonable parents who give me grief on picayune party concepts.

My fixation on futuristic sound and danceability is why I even insisted on even using my dad's effects processors. Even though those effects devices were made for guitars, they also worked with other instruments (even microphones). My dad said he thought my endeavors were awesome; but when he wanted to jam in my uncle's basement, he just had to start plaing a whole sone without even doing a one-note sound test with my effects just to make sure they went hand-in-hand. But unfortunately, he and I both had to learn the hard way that frustration was inevitable.

I fucking hate it when people are in denial about wild imaginations!

I also hate it when an otherwise danceable music genre is besmirched with marketing to apply that specification to whimpy-ass music that barely has any beat or effects or instrumentation or musical value. Because I am very seisitive on quality standards regarding the concept of dance music and dancefloors!

NOW DOESN'T THIS SENTENCE PROVE MY FIXATION?

You have this fixation because you're autistic. There isn't anything outstanding about the subject.

The fixation is not just misplaced attention to one subject. It is something that they can grasp and of course they are going to like it when they are actually communicating knowledge they are going to be successful at. Their brain has finally found a place of function and normalcy. To stifle their creative and learning experience by taking away their fixation may be a huge mistake. If the fixation is healthy and no a danger to the child, then embrace it and expand on it. The fixation and the concepts you teach in the alignment of that fixation can make your child's life easier and happier.

I understand that it is hard being you. Good for you for learning detail about something.

However, you shouldn't be separating sexuality from your life. You should be learning about it. Your parents obviously don't seem like a good choice to help you with this, so I would suggest talking about it with friends. In the real world people go to clubs to find other people to have sex with. You may find it noble that you separate the two, but this is just part of your autistic fixation on dancing, and your struggle with sexuality.

yes you simply can't expect anyone here to feel the same way as you on this. your brain is simply not wired in the same way as ours, the compulsion that drives you to have a "fixation" like this just isn't present in the large majority of the population.

Mabdog 11-17-2009 11:20 PM

back to your hole, clinton.

I just thought this thread would come to the attention of other members of the 3dmm community who might have something in common about my fixation.

But I guess record companies, the RIAA, and ghetto-ass hip hop artists just had to hide away the heritage and use of sound just as an excuse to justify the rarity of this fixation so they could slack off even more in releasing chart toppers. But what happened as a result of this shitty ass move? Music and genres were suddenly besmirched as a result of it! WHAT A WASTE!

Anyway, my fixation with dance culture is so strong, that I even went the extra mile to create YouTube playlists tailored for dance parties when you stream them. They even have footnotes with information.

R&B/soul dance party: http://www.youtube.com/user/SamuraiC...0104CC5A1D5323 (Only a handful of R&B qualifies as dance music; and because of the genre's vagueness, you might find a few anomaly examples in this)

Classic house music dance party: http://www.youtube.com/user/SamuraiC...9671D743599D42 (the best dance music of the 90s)

Lowrider hydraulics jamz: http://www.youtube.com/user/SamuraiC...6246BDF30BCDFE (since it has some funk and other songs that go hand-in-hand with lowrider hydraulic action. They also have the best use of bass for dance parties as well)

Instrumental dance tracks: http://www.youtube.com/user/SamuraiC...ABA1BBF7B136BF (who needs lyrics anyway, its all about the sound)

Breakdancers' mix: http://www.youtube.com/user/SamuraiC...1D9CDCD14A45B6 (used rather as a reference to sound code for the breakdancing culture than a dancefloor playlist)

Dance medleys: http://www.youtube.com/user/SamuraiC...367DDF4067AD48 (if you wanna hear a medley of dance tracks, choose this. Except the playlist is not yet mature)

Chiptune mashup dance jams: http://www.youtube.com/user/SamuraiC...1896E8E2567629 (a collection of mashups of chart toppers with more danceable beats than their originals. They are mainly video game songs with a cappella versions of hit singles dubbed over)


If anybody on the 3dmm community wants to plan a dance party in their house or if they rent a party hall at a venue with free wifi, just stream one of these YouTube playlists. Thats how much of a wizard I became because of my fixation.

My fixation... It made me a WIZARD

Michael Jeffrey 11-18-2009 02:02 AM

The people I work with are cool, but they all have the most boring ass taste in music ever. The only radio station that ever gets played is the top-40 station, and literally their playlist is about 40 songs long. I hear at least 10 songs twice a day, a handful three times a day. This really gets under my skin, I compulsively change it to ANYTHING else, local indie, classic rock, slightly-less-mainstream top-40, and I'm always met with the response 'what the fuck is this shit I don't know this song?!' followed by the immediate changing-back of the station when I'm not paying attention/working.

At these times, I feel so much like clinton.

My advice toward you, is to just switch to a goddman MP3 player (preferably an iPod).

Besides, all you gotta do is listen to 10 seconds within the halfway if a song, and skip to the next if its avaliable on demand. Besides, on-demand media is the wave of the future!

For instance, I go on YouTube and compulsively keyword "house music", "90s eurodance", "breakdancer mix", "house music mix", "dance music", etc. Then, I add examples with promising thumbnails to the quicklist, and I skip to the halfway and listen to 10 seconds since it is enough time to know if it is worth listening to longer; and 10 seconds can sometimes be enough to know if its just a downright reject to your taste. Related videos is also a good tab to add more to the quicklist with. This method to me is the most efficient way to discover new songs. And if I were you, I would just say NO to radio, and just know that radio is pointless. DVDVideoSoft is a revolutionary program that downloads a YouTube video as an MP3 of its soundtrack.

So repeat after me if you put comments on songs you hear on YouTube: "Just say NO to radio, and say YES to YouTube!

YOUTUBE 4 LIFE"

Just imagine you were listening to 110 songs; if you listened to them all in whole, then you'd spend about 6 hours through them. If you limited them all to a 10 second excerpt (especially if you examined the halfway), then you'd probably compress this timeframe to ~12 minutes. And if you think about it, maybe you'd discover never before heard songs in half that time.

So, just take my advice, and know that the wave of the future can also be your solution to the problem. And maybe if people honored my methods more; maybe it would indicate more sympathy they have for me.

Because I gotta tell you this: there are suspicious discrepancies to mass media that record labels, the RIAA, musicians, and radio broadcasters don't want you to know. And I will give a list of those examples:

*not every song in a genre is as danceable as marketing specifications proclaim it to be.
*Hip hop was an extension to funk in the first place (but even those hearing examples of hip hop songs that sample funk still continue to act like they never heard funk before, this is even the case for those who listen to the Jack FM format when Rick James is ocasionally played). But too bad hip hop had to trade the doppler-phased bassline for more sexuality (WHAT A WASTE).
*R&B which officially stands for "rhythm and blues" barely has much rhythm anymore, and for the most part is no longer blues-like for newer releases.
*Older music that people used to dance to had more lively use of effects or instruments. (which is sorta my example of "dance music")
*Rock and Roll had more instruments and lived up to its name more effectively during the 50s.
*Country music used to have a loss of fidelity. But that "fidelity loss" was simply an interesting side effect.
*Jazz used to be catchier since it used to have scat singing. But they abruptly removed that in favor of smooth jazz. WHAT A WASTE

At this rate, some information may be kept secret since these greedy assholes who market music fear they will lose money once the customers reveal the awful truth. But I guess they exploit the ignorance of some listeners. But I here am the one who has the sneaky suspicion to sniff out discrepancies which some people don't feel sorry about. I guess my fixation on dance music earned me sneaky suspicion since my sound code is so strict.

And I guess some people are in denial when they are confronted with zany effects (such as ones that Daft Punk and Kraftwerk pull off); and I guess the RIAA and record labels take advantage of that just to go the extra mile for greed.

We gotta put an end to the commercialization of music. Because it is gradually becoming something to obtain for free from the Internet. If we could team up to destroy the RIAA and to repeal this shitty copyright law on downloadable music and advertise places that you can download free underground music from; then maybe there would be more justice to dancefloors let alone musical culture in general.

You know what, I don't wait for new song releases in a car. I usually devote song discovery to when I am at home.

Kyle. I swear to god, if you continue to take my statments the wrong way, I AM GOING TO BLOCK YOU!

And that alone is a symptom that people don't give me enough sympathy!
