Apple Shares New 'Discover' Apple Music Ads Featuring Flo Morrissey, Flying Lotus, Shamir and Leon Bridges

[BruceEBonus]

Musician based band music died years ago along with album art and record shops. Accept it. It's gone. Now. Embrace the strummy, folk singing "singer songwriters" beloved by XFactor 'moguls' - and this is the crap you got. Did we get what we want to hear? No. That's only because if you're too young to know any different, this cack is 'the norm' now. So enjoy. Ignorance is bliss. Even if you've never heard of these fly-by-night 'artists' it doesn't matter. They're factory produced bilge from marketing men. This isn't musicianship. Now then ... Where was I? Ah yes. What was the questions again?

 

[whooleytoo]

Oh noes. I really like Flying Lotus but now that Apple is promoting him, he's too mainstream. What do I dooooooo?

-Apple music has been buggy during the 3 month free trial
-Music selection is limited, I tried to find music I found in iTunes but you can only buy it not listen to it on Apple Music
-Finally collapsed on me with an error -42587 which I found was them trying to get my credit card details. I'm not handing over my credit card details during this FREE TRIAL

I wanted this to work but during every fail mentioned, I double clicked the home button and back into Spotify so I could continue on with my life.

Which music could you not stream on Apple Music, that you could on Spotify?

I loved Flo Morrissey's work with The Smiths in the 80's.

are you ok now? gotten rid of the undue anger?

Would hardly call Flying Lotus Strummy folk...

Besides the fact that strummy folk as you call it with singer/songwriters has been around with stuff from SuperTramp, Simon & Garfunkel among others. Now maybe those types of acts are perceived as being better, but they were still doing this kinda thing way back in the 70's & 80's... Just because its televised now, means that the former stuff didn't exist?

The irony is, that I actually don't like X-factor produced bilge either. But that doesn't mean some of them are genuinely talented.

Yeah, pretty much the only time I end up listening to the hundreds of dollars of music I've purchased through iTunes is when I'm away from cell data or wi-fi. I'm a big fan on the curated playlists that show up when you search an artist or song. It's a great discovery tool. Since I've been using apple music I've added roughly 30 albums to my library, which would be over $300 if I purchased via iTunes. I just wish Beats 1 would play more of these new artists and not so popular selections. Just like regular radio, it gets a bit repetitive.

WHOOOA!!!! 3 Apple Music ads with African-American musicians…. and not a single Auto-tuned misogynistic foul-mouthed gangsta-rapper among them!? This is purely an aberration.

...not all black artist are rappers.....

When my 3 months trial are over, I'm stoping with music
& remember that?

Classic simplifying to the point of being moronic from Steve there. Yeah, we get it dude, it is a bad deal to pay 10 bucks a month for a streaming subscription if you are only going to ever listen to ONE single song and nothing else for the rest of your life.

Djeezus, I can't believe that the whole audience isn't booing like crazy when a guy claims wild stuff like this.

 

[naeS1Sean]

I'm so glad I'm open minded enough to except people like Shamir and gay marriage and such. It must be so miserable to hate people for reasons like that.

 

[esaruoho]

Sorry, who are they?

Flying Lotus aka Steve Ellison, has released four albums on Warp Records, a fairly famous electronic music label that has released such notable people as Aphex Twin, Squarepusher, Boards of Canada, Autechre... etc.

Flying Lotus has also collaborated with Erykah Badu and Herbie Hancock.

He is ****-hot in the Bass Music scene. One of my personal favourites.

 

[esaruoho]

They are lesser known artists.

Hmm. Ok. Btw, there's a FlyLoFM in some popular game. GTA V, I believe.

Which music could you not stream on Apple Music, that you could on Spotify?

I'm sorry I wasn't clear, I didn't mean there was songs I could get on Spotify that wasn't on Apple Music, I meant I expected Apple music to have more on offer than Spotify. When I couldn't find the track I assumed it wasn't online yet but then it showed up in the iTunes Store on my phone.

* I wasn't seeking songs but you're question got me to check, and the song I am listening to on Spotify while replying you doesn't appear in Apple Music "Daughter - Candles"

I went back to Spotify when Apple Music crashes, randomly stops playing the song half way or just doesn't want to work at all which it eventually did.
