Customer Reviews
Western Tonality in English Imperialism
Hi! I love this show and both of your YouTube channels. I was wondering if you have any resources that would offer more information on western tonality’s role in European imperialism. I assume Rameau’s work played a role, but beyond that I’m lost on where to look. Let me know! Thanks.
Less hot takes please
Love the content and good questions. Appreciate it when thoughtful and careful consideration with curiosity is the driving force in the conversation. Unfortunately, the hot takes and rambling is too distracting and annoying. Perhaps it’s the “let’s talk about one thing at a time” that I really enjoy and some episodes are all over the place. Less of the latter please!
Okay
All the concepts are worth exploring here, I just wish that they’d expand the discussion beyond classic rock. Soul/funk/rnb/hiphop is only occasionally mentioned tangentially, but they never actually dedicate time to those topics other than to acknowledge their existence.
