what noise makes you ask "why"

This type of music tends to challenge the distinction that is made in conventional musical practices between musical and non-musical sound.

Well like I said...masturbation.
Sure its 'fun' but do you need to subject the public to it?
When did facts become insults? (Ahaha)

Agreed gender balance is good, but it's not crucial. Anyone can and should make some noise.


/tangent
There's the whole "there must be gender balance on the board of directors of the company" argument but I would rather see the best X candidates selected entirely on their ability to do the job, not on whether they have a penis / vagina or not.

This presumes that the people making the decisions to hire aren't gender biased. For example it used to be common for companies to reject women out of hand because of the chance of them having children and taking leave. Or how do minorities get relevant work experience and become the best candidate after generations of being at a disadvantage?

I'm of course not saying to hire people who aren't qualified . What if the most qualified person happens to be a total asshole but on paper look terrific? I've had to work with a number of people like that only to have to clean up their messes later when they move on.

there's arguably a difference between process and result. making hnw may be pretty trivial, but that doesn't mean it is. doesn't seem to work out that way for me.

Relating this to noise or any culture/ media.
At this point there is so much material and talented output available that anybody who is blatantly odious(to me) is just not worth the time or bother except to maybe deride and make fun of.

Be a jerk that's fine but there's actually a 1000 non jerks doing the same thing your jerk ass is doing or your jerk shit was already done a generation or two ago and is pointless and not near as cool as you think it is. Don't care how subjectively good some fans think the shit is, it may actually be 'good', but it's just not worth the rehash for me.
We don't need another GG Allin or Whitehouse. They can't be topped so don't bother.

Oh no man masturbation is great I love it I'm all about it but mine is for me and yours is for you.
(I will share but...making it a product...I dunno)

So what's your favorite technique for making HNW?

Calling something harsh when it's just boring is boring to me and most certainly cliched.(look at punk or gangstery rap done by gated community kids). It's more about the theme and packaging than the...mostly...boring sounds.
( I love a nice package especially when its mine and I'm or preferably someone else is masturbating it!)

Notice the words I'm using...mostly...some...the good performers...HNW.
