#niche taste

[zee-rambles]

You ever really get into a thing?

And then you find out there isn’t much of that thing?

But you LOVE that thing so much that you need MORE of that thing? So you consume all the fandom stuff and then there’s no more.

And then you get salty that the thing didn’t get as much love as it deserved and that other, dumber things got WAY more attention, and more content.

And now you can no longer even watch the thing you loved in the first place because you don’t want to get sick of it?

And there’s no one to talk to about it?

Or barely anyone you know has seen or cares for it?

…yeah…

What kind of music they like? Which one of them wears headphones all the time? Which one of them should be use headphones?

gideon: roxanne, heat of the moment, fortunate son, black hole sun, joan jett etc. she does listen to danger days but she will not say she likes mcr because people start making assumptions about her. she mainly likes that album and occasionally listens to save yourself, ill hold them back a concerning amount of times in a row

pal: classical when hes studying, ska for the hype

cam: house music, brass/horns heavy stuff. also likes ska and guitar-heavy songs

dulcinea: 2000s party music, R&B and jazz

harrow: cathedral nuns singing (9 hours), muttering radio channel (20 hours)

PSA: please do not send asks asking characters their opinions on singular songs/song genres/tv shows/movies. they are too specific to spend time listening, thinking, and drawing an answer to and they will be ignored

#credits to thatneoncrisis who helped me build up gideons music taste bc i have a more niche music genre (the ska) #you can send the music asks to them or to me (notedchampagne) on main if you want #dulcinea septimus #palamedes sextus #camilla hect #gideon nav #harrowhark nonagesimus #the locked tomb #gideon the ninth #artlog #music #basic info

I truly believe Will Wood is an incredible musician and songwriter and is one of the top lyricists in the last decade both in and outside of the genres that he chooses to play in with absolutely zero irony. I also believe that you can only fully understand that if you’ve either had a pet die before listening to his music or you have a history of drug abuse and mental health crises. Or you’re trans.

#this may sound like a snooty post where I’m just upholding my own favorite music as the best #but honestly it’s in response to a lot of fans I’ve seen be really self critical? #like yeah haha I listen to bad music #and I also have been known to joke about my own weird taste #but here’s the thing! from a technical level! his music! goes hard! it is experimental and that is GOOD #and lyrically listen I listen to a lot of music #I’m even familiar with top forty stuff and while yes the content of his songs is very niche #the lyricism is so genuinely clever and playful and ugh god #ok anyway. sorry #listened to Will wood again #and also this post is about the fact that I first I didn’t get it. #and then I went to a really low point. and suddenly I got it #ok it cracked me open like a fucking egg #music #text #personal #kinda

his grinch impression has bewitched me body and soul

#käärijä doing an impression of the grinch had the same effect on me as pedro pascal doing an impression of beetlejuice #my two (current)biggest man-crushes imitating my childhood crushes (yes i was a weird kid with questionable tastes in fictional characters) #anyway this was so sexy of him #käärijä #jere pöyhönen #the grinch #the grinch (2000) #how the grinch stole christmas #niche posts that cater to me specifically

[yardsards]

people have brought up the difference between "this piece of media is good" vs "i like this piece of media". i would also like to mention the third axis "i would easily recommend this piece of media to others"

#eliot posts #like for example. taz balance. i like it SO MUCH and i think it is mostly good #but i only recommend it to a select few people because it is SO LONG and is a little niche in terms of taste #so i need to know more abt what kind of stuff you like before i would ask you to invest the time to listen to it #meanwhile a show like infinity train i recommend to almost everyone #(well. after asking them if there's anything they need content warned about bc that shit can get HEAVY) #bc it's short and it's got an appeal that is good even for ppl outside of my ''adults who like kids cartoons'' circle w its storytelling #(as opposed to a show like the owl house which is good but i would generally only recommend to ppl who Like Cartoons)

making hera manage a space station is inhumane. she's supposed to be creating unmarketable art. post-canon hera makes like fifteen dollars a month off niche experimental multimedia poetry zines, eiffel is begging people to listen to his music on bandcamp (between an assortment of jobs that would be perfectly fine, if he could hold any of them for longer than two months), and they are both so, so lucky minkowski cares about them so much.

#wolf 359 #w359 #hera wolf 359 #doug eiffel #i've said things like this to friends before but it's important to me #hera is good at math by nature of her brain being. a computer that is wired up to other computers. #but none of that what she WANTS to do. jobs for which the only requirement is having no pulse. etc... #eiffel and hera are meant to be minkowski's slacker roommates #hera needs to make friends with musicians who are making equally niche and unmarketable stuff #and she recommends it to eiffel whose taste is way too normal #and she's like i told them about your music too!! and he's like oh... great... <- sweating because he knows how devastatingly uncool #all of these people think he is. #this would be good for her.

[inconsequentia]

The likelihood that I will ever get this finished is about nil so I'll just toss this up here as it is for now.

Let it be known I am very normal about Imperial!Nero tol Scaeva.

Don't get me wrong, goofy engineer Nero is great too but... yeaaaah.

#Nero tol Scaeva #FFXIV Nero #Final Fantasy 14 #My art #unfinished #wip(?) #oops my niche tastes are showing again

[smalltownfae]

Me: I wonder why no one is into my fandoms

My fandoms: *books without adaptations and niche musical about the Odyssey that isn't even complete yet*

#epic the musical #books #it's sad to have niche tastes ;-; #I want people to know about my favs and let them consume them body and soul!!! #why couldn't I be into marvel or something? this sucks

[wazzappp]

I have this. Extremely specific scenario. I like to pull off the daydream bookshelf quite a bit.

After Robbie kills Ivanov, everybody there still like. KNOWS WHERE HE LIVES. So I'm thinking some new motherfucker rises up and is like 'alright were gonna hit him where it hurts. protect future business ventures n' stuff' and sends someone to take Gabe as leverage. Lisa and Robbie have actually managed to TALK about things and once theyr'e on friendly terms again she is once again babysitting Gabe.

Anyway this mob guy shows up and attempts this kidnapping. Lisa manages to get the upperhand with a kitchen knife somehow and just. GOES HAM. LIKE. 'GETS ON TOP OF HIM AND STABS HIM TILL HES NOT MOVING ANYMORE AND THEN JUST A LITTLE EXTRA FOR GOOD MEASURE' GOES HAM. Naturally calls Robbie afterward because WHAT. This guy is clearly MOB AFFILIATED she has NO IDEA what will happen if she calls the police SO PLEASE JUST FUCKING GET HERE AND MAKE IT MAKE SENSE.

It's a complete and total clusterfuck all around. For EVERYONE.

Lisa is IN THE MIDDLE OF A CRISIS OK. SHES EARNED A LITTLE FREAK OUT. SHE JUST FUCKING KILLED SOMEONE. Jesus christ why didn't she stop after he was down why did she keep fucking going god what does that say ABOUT HER. Does she feel the right amount of bad about this? She doesent really REGRET it she just wanted to keep Gabe and herself safe. But did she really need to go that far why did she take it that far and SHE WAS READY TO DO IT AGAIN IF SOMEONE ELSE BAD WALKED THROUGH THE DOOR is something wrong with her? please dont let there be something really wrong with her shes tried so hard to be good shes tried SO hard please please she is. spiraling. bad.

Gabe is having... a fucking time of it. This is the second time in two months that someone has been killed right fucking in front of him. At least the first one he was only semi conscious for but still. @moosemonstrous helped develop two GLORIOUSLY, BEAUTIFULLY angsty directions this could go. 1. 'WOW the world is dangerous I'm so lucky that I have people who can protect me. Those guys must have really deserved it.' (bonus points if him and Lisa are still not on the best of terms but this like. endears her to him. jesus christ I love your brain moose thats so cutely fucked up). OR 2. he can go the self blaming route of 'This is the second guy to die. And he died because people were protecting me. Is this?? My fault?? Is there something wrong with me? if people keep getting hurt because of me maybe it would be better if I just wasn't around.' (<- ROBBIE GET YOUR BROTHER NOW.)

And Robbie. Jesus christ. His brain is being pulled in SO MANY DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS BY THIS. Eli is elated, naturally, 'OHHHOHOHOHO ROBBIEEEEE I KNEW YOU HAD TO HAVE GOOD TASTE IN SOMETHING OTHER THAN CARS! See!!? I TOLD you killing is a perfectly natural part of being a person! Look at all those stab wounds she CLEARLY had a good time!' Robbies part of the brain is going 'HOLY FUCK' and IMMEDIATELY jumps to problem solving. He needs to get rid of the body first and formost at least that shouldnt be too hard oh god getting rid of bodies is something hes GOOD at what the fuck. HOW MANY?? OF IVANOVS MOB?? KNOWS WHERE HE LIVES??? Oh fuck does he have to go kill them ALL ?? (<- que Eli doing backflips out of absolute joy at that possibility) Also, brother. You cant tell me. that demons don't have weird social structures and expressions of affection. And Robbie is like. HALF DEMON. AT LEAST. So this shit for him is at least a little bit like when a cat brings you a dead animal (SHE IS SHOWING!! THE LITTLE ONE!! HOW TO HUNT!! SHE KILLED FOR HIM!! FOR US!!). IT IS. CONFUSING. FUCKING CONFUSING AS ALL HELL FOR HIM!!

Idk man this is just the particular brand of clusterfuck that is like my own personal brand of heroin to quote one sparkly boy.

#is this too niche? I think this might be too niche #idk man fuck it we ball #i need her sweaty. scared. holding a knife. and covered in blood. #i have the WORST taste and brother. i endulge it with absolute glee. #ghost rider #robbie reyes #lisa (ghost rider) #gabe reyes #eli morrow #my art #sketch #I hope yall enjoy. my bullshit

The surreal experience of realizing you're no longer mutuals with someone. Where have you gone and wence shall you return, if at all, fair friend of few encounters?

#spazzcat barks #delete later #this is not negative people can curate their blogs as they want #and i have been insufferably rns posting #but i am wildly curious as to why #is it the niche ive fallen into? #did i say/do something weird? #did we simply exit each others space like two ships passing? #did i offend? #did their tastes change? #will we ever become mutuals again or has the thread of fate been cut never to retangle? #alas! fair mutual(s)! our bond was but a fleeting thing! #gone gone away to brighter days and more curated tastes #sorry im in a silly mood ignore me #XD

people who say “I don’t like breakcore but I really like ultrakill’s soundtrack” are kind of funny to me because like…ultrakill’s ost isn’t composed of the same kinds of musical influences as most breakcore is. having frenzied drums and an irregular time signature does not necessarily make a track “breakcore”, and if you look at most of hakita’s favorite bands/tags on the HPH bandcamp page, it’s actually more metal/industrial rock inspired. which has a completely different lineage than breakcore does, although they do share some dna in the fact breakcore was inspired in some small part by electro-industrial acts like velvet acid christ, etc. these people likely aren’t connecting with the breakcore elements of his music but rather the other more familiar (and at the end of the day) rock inspired elements

#ultrakill #breakcore #personal post #industrial rock #metal music #im fully aware btw that putting down industrial music as being “rock inspired” is kind of reductive to its history but roll with me here pl #jungle and all of its derived genres are pretty universally recognized as niche hence why it’s often an acquired taste to be into dnb at al #if you didn’t grow up in those scenes #or with that kind of music

Continuing Adventures of watching Dungeon Meshi, and my inner biologist is screaming over the apparent life cycle of the Living Armor.

#dungeon meshi #science! #like this is such a legit biological niche especially within the dungeon environment #and of COURSE they taste like mollusks
