I just seriously want to know how one get's to be over the age of...I dunno...16...17...and decides they are gonna be REALLY into something that's meant for kids younger than 12...like what's the appeal...is it like a extended childhood thing or...I'm not saying I don't watch like a Pixar kids movie now and again with my girlfriend or something like that...

I just want to understand....because this is more of like a lifestyle right? Not just grown ups who collect toys?

It's like I used to be really into TMNT...obsessed really...and the show is still around...but when I went to check out what they'd done with it I could only watch about five minutes of it because it was so goddamn asinine to me as an adult...it made me realize how tortured parents around the world must be by watching kiddy stuff with their children...

That's true, but shouldn't one feel the urge to explore something more challenging after a while, too? Something more custom, that sounds more like "him"? Again, just my opinion though.

I'm going to not bother being diplomatic or care if people think I'm being a dick but MLP themed music is shit and artistically void.

I mean fucking hell it's beyond pathetic if that's what you want to write about. Not express your own emotions or ideas or anything. Even people who have limited themselves greatly by making something like chip-tune are making more of an aesthetic choice and drawing from a pool of emotions relate to a that time, technology and the idioms of a specific musical style informed by their connected media. MLP music is simply having such an empty life and lack of creativity that you have to write about a fucking kids tv show. It's not like you could make an artistic interesting concept album out of it either if people are claiming that people take inspiration from others works either. This isn't Mastodon writing about Moby Dick. Neutral Milk Hotel Writing about Anne Frank's diary or whatever as a source of inspiration. This is shit electronic music with no depth about cartoon ponies.

Fuck it all.

:Q:

I support this statement 100% I just don't see what a fully functioning adult would get out of being into MLP let alone making music about it...the fact that it's become some kind of sub-culture for adults is just ridiculous.

To be fair, I've never watched MLP so I'm not judging. Someone told me that its just a good show and bronies are what they are because they don't care what the demographic of the show is supposed to be. I don't go out of my way to watch Phineas and Ferb, but I do enjoy that cartoon despite it being for younger people. Aside from nostalgia, I enjoy Hey Arnold for things I would have never understood as a kid. They made a reference to a poet I learned about in my sophomore year of college :o Went way over my head when I was a kid.

I just thought it was bizarre that there was a forum for such a narrow niche, that's all. Makes me wonder what the smallest, most obscure internet forum is...

Everyone should go back and watch the episode of the powerpuff girls called The Beat Alls if you want jokes you didn't get as a kid

I mean, I get kid shows throwing in adult jokes kids won't get for two reasons:

1. Make the shit at least mildly palatable for parents.
2. Your probably fucking insane or a creeper if you can write that stuff w/o out throwing in some LOLs for the sake of your own mental state...

I've been forced to watch some stuff from my childhood and never really enjoyed. That only thing I still find amusing occasionally is Ren & Stimpy, but mostly because I can't believe they actually got away with putting that bizarre ass shit on television for kids!

Do you REALLY think people make music about MLP w/o using emotion? Without imagination? Seriously?

I get that its a scene that caters to people inside of it and cares little about the way outsiders view it but that's like someone judging "all dubstep music is annoying noise and wubs and sounding like Skrillex". Would you feel ok if someone just characterized a whole thriving scene through ignorant comments and dismissing the sheer variety that actually exists? Especially if they/you haven't heard a single track? That's true ignorance and that's just nothing to be proud of. :a: I'm sure you are aware of people saying dumb things about dubstep and edm.

Here's some examples of what people make if anyone is legitimately curious.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q1pjmN3RF3c

Anyway people get involved because they see what the community can make and likewise get inspired by what they can do within it. It just so happens that forum is where people organize to do so and to learn how to do it better and be better overall musicians. It's really pretty straight forward, not that different from this forum and people who choose to make and like dubstep.

Namaste

Yes. Because MLP is junk food television. There's not much emotion or imagination going on there. And, to be perfectly frank, adults being emotionally invested in a kids television fantasy is just weird.

And people already judge dubstep in the way you describe and it doesn't really bother me.

And your opinions on MLP aren't really important to me either. I wouldn't expect the average person to get it and i don't mind if they think it's a bit weird at first glance, that is to be expected. It's fine if it's not your cup of tea.
