What good music publics on VKontakte can you recommend?
I will be happy to answer your question. There are many VK public pages dedicated to music, I will try to highlight the more preferable ones. But, of course, based, first of all, on your subjective opinion (and you didn’t indicate your preferred genres). The order in which the public pages are located below has nothing to do with their rating; the order is arbitrary. I don’t pretend to be comprehensive; you definitely can’t cover everything here, and you don’t know everything.
vk.com - Wonderful public page “History of Music”. Here, every day they celebrate certain events that took place in the world of music on one day or another in a certain year, some significant dates (birthdays, release days of singles, albums, concerts, etc.), publish review posts on albums of different genres (primarily rock music (usually classic rock or genres close to it), high-quality pop music), share current news from the music world, publish interesting facts about performers, songs, compositions, albums, etc. You can often see various thematic collections, stories of the creation of a specific song or album (in fact, initially, apparently, the public was guided by this, as we can see from the title).
vk.com - Melodies and rhythms of your favorite albums. They publish, as is again clear from the name, music in albums, always telling about the history of their creation, biographical facts about the activities of specific performers; sometimes the descriptions are of a review nature (the achievements of the written album are noted, its strong and not so strong things, the characteristic features of the album as a whole and individual compositions, innovation, progression of the group, or, conversely, decline), or simply note the assessment of critics, what awards the product brought to the authors /performers. Mostly you can see classic rock music, sometimes folk (not modern, as a rule), jazz, sometimes pop music (but also, as in the public above, very selective), sometimes electronic music. They try to share new musical releases. Good public.
E-music public network (main page: vk.com): thematic music publics of various directions and genres in music - from classic rock, jazz, folk to Soviet music, marching music, drone, ambient, witch house, wonka and so on . Here is a menu with a catalog of pages: vk.com. There are also public pages dedicated to books, movies, and computer toys. I won’t post links to specific public pages, because there are so many of them. By the way, there is a division into public pages dedicated to the music of specific cities in Russia.
BBC Radio Publics. As you know, this radio has several stations, each of which is dedicated to something specific. This information resource is musically interesting, therefore music lovers, lovers of music and these radio stations in general decided to reflect the relevant material within the framework of VK. I’ll write about more interesting ones.
BBC Radio 1 (VK page - vk.com) - mainly on it you can hear modern electronic music (techno, trance, trip-hop, instrumental hip-hop, and so on). They publish new releases, long plays, and sets by various artists. participating radio stations, ratings, charts, archived broadcasts, rotations (all in English, of course) radio stations, genre selections, thematic selections (ala summer music, etc.).
BBC Radio 6 (vk.com - VK link) - there is an unusual mixture of music: on the one hand, a lot of classic rock, jazz, funk, reggae of the last century, on the other - quite a lot of modern folk, indie, electronic and pop music, but all quite selective. They also publish archived episodes of programs, current programs (all in the original language), talk about new music, memorable dates, etc. Music lovers will be able to pick up quite a lot of interesting material, especially if they listen to the programs. Musicians are often invited to talk and discuss materials.
vk.com - Music lovers of psycho-prog-art-ethno-blues-rock. One of my favorite publics. If you are interested in these genres, you will find a lot of interesting things here, although sometimes the administrators shy away from the main topic; you can, for example, see selections of classic pop music (Michael Jackson, George Michael, for example), trip-hop, quite classical music . But mostly prog, psychedelic, art, jazz, fusion. The music is published to a greater extent as an album (they also talk about the artist, the features of the album, its history, or they always indicate the instrumental component (the listed genres, as a rule, are always associated with multi-instrumentalism). Memorable musical dates and significant dates are highlighted. There are enough lively discussions in the public (in many groups/publics they have already died) regarding musical preferences and the like. Sometimes you can see questionnaires with album ratings. In general, fans of psych-prog-art-ethno-blues-rock will definitely appreciate this public.
vk.com - Collection Of Elite Music. Encyclopedia of music lovers. It sounds pathetic and pretentious, but the public is good, we’ll forgive him for that.) Again, albums of music from the 20th century are mostly published, sometimes with descriptions of interesting facts and features of the work, the album as a whole. The description of the VK public is as follows: “A page for those who love music of all genres and styles; music that has beautiful harmony; music that caresses the ear and makes us perceive the world around us in a completely different light... If you are a music lover, love rock and roll, blues, jazz and just good music, then this is the place for you! :-)". The predominant genres are clearly indicated.
vk.com - World of intellectual music. Newly published album music - classic rock, blues, jazz, prog, art and so on.
vk.com - One day in the history of music. A musical calendar with a story about the facts of the history of song writing, from the lives of musicians, etc.
For lovers of classical music:
vk.com - Classical music. Perhaps the most popular public page on this topic is VKontakte. Many selections (thematic and by composer/performer, sometimes they publish the creations of beginners and not only modern musicians). The society has a formalized search for works by composers' names.
vk.com - a public page with the same name - Classical music. Thematic selections and specific composers/performers.
vk.com - Academic music. Representative of the Academic public network (there is also an Academician of design, sculpture, dance, architecture, and so on). Mostly selections by composer, always in black and white (or, in any case, they avoid color altogether).
vk.com - High music. A very sincere public dedicated to the classics, in my opinion. Often the selections are accompanied by poetry, facts about the lives of composers and performers, stories about the conditions for writing a particular work, the musician’s influence on public life, and so on. Also wonderful visual accompaniment.
If you like jazz:
JAZZ public network
vk.com - JAZZ | Contemporary | Fusion | World. This, if you like, is not such classic Jazz. Modern; fusion, which came out of jazz (well, the name hints, “fusion”); jazz played in different parts of the world.
Experimental styles of jazz:
vk.com - JAZZ | Bop | Cool | Modal
vk.com - Avantgarde | Free | PostBop
Jazz of all times and peoples:
vk.com JAZZ JAZZ
vk.com JazzPeople
Classic American jazz: vk.com USA School of Jazz 50-60
Here is interesting Soviet music (not pop music): vk.com
Another favorite public page is vk.com/feedyourhead. Many selective musical selections of different genres (psychedelic, prog, trip-hop, jazz, soul, funk, etc.) that are not (for the most part) related to the mainstream movement will be approved by connoisseurs. The material is very interesting. Music both modern and last century.
A selection of public pages with music on a famous social network
Indie Music A group about indie music - latest releases, current video clips, raffles for tickets to concerts in Moscow and St. Petersburg. A large number of updates per day with really high-quality music. But still, the most important thing is the draws. You can go to almost any good concert: Peter Doherty, Blood Red Shoes, IAMX, Bloc Party, The Paisley, Deep Purple and others. They organize their own small parties, but quite rarely. Link: https://vk.com/indie_music
MOTHER LAND (Music from domestic performers) This wonderful public page is entirely dedicated to the new domestic scene. Updates occur several times a day: songs, online premieres of albums, video clips, ticket giveaways, event announcements and much more. The content is impressive. The guys themselves also organize a large number of concerts, festivals and parties in Moscow and St. Petersburg. Almost 7,000 subscribers, including journalists from music publications, critics, art directors of clubs, editors of portals, musicians of fashion groups and other people associated with the music industry. For example, the editors of Look At Me or the creators of the music TV show on Channel One. And if you write music, then you can easily invite the guys to publish it. Link: https://vk.com/mymotherland The New Thing Gloomy but wonderful. Black and white photographs and cool music from all over the world: darkwave from Turkey, post-punk from Sweden, coldwave from France, indietronica from Germany, shoegaze from Italy and much, much more. The guys don’t shy away from frequent reposting, but that’s actually good. There is a feeling that the guys sit on Last.fm for days on end and look for something else to please their subscribers. Thanks to them for their work. Link: https://vk.com/thisisthenewthing Red Disco A charming blog dedicated to songs from the eighties and nineties. Perhaps the cutest and most remarkable thing about this track blog is not so much the music, but the fact that each post with a song is accompanied by a photograph and a short story, very subtly conveying the mood and atmosphere of the last Soviet decades. “It’s been raining since the morning - November shows itself in all its glory. But, despite this, you have to get up at 7:30 in the morning and go to the clinic for a certificate. The bus gets stuck in a traffic jam, the conductor checks the tickets. You fall asleep while walking, barely holding onto the handrails. "Who is last?" A line of 6 grandmothers and one grandfather with a lonely and beautiful order on their jacket.” Very atmospheric public. Link: https://vk.com/red_disco HORN OF PLENTY A stylish track blog shares relevant and equally stylish music. Groups, releases, videos and selections will delight any lover of independent and simply high-quality music: in the arsenal of the public, Chromatics and Holy Ghost coexist! and the magical Flying Lotus, as well as meaty and powerful tracks from Death Grips, and, let’s not hesitate to say, Lana Del Ray. However, in the information about the public there are only two words written: “new music”, and HORN OF PLENTY copes quite successfully with the coverage of new musical phenomena. Link: https://vk.com/hornofplenty Hip Me The public is a playlist of a Ukrainian online magazine about electronic music. Hip Me are constantly searching for new directions in new wave dance music, which they are doing quite well. The page is updated approximately every three days, but each update is an extensive selection of fresh and high-quality electronics. Link: https://vk.com/hipmegroup Leave links to the best music publics in the comments. Let's make this post together a collection of interesting links.
What to write in the “Favorite music” column on VKontakte?
One of the fields that is displayed on a social network when filling out a profile is your favorite music. This line reflects the individual interests, hobbies and tastes of each user. Differences are observed in genres and performers, and very rarely they coincide on different pages. The section about music is located in the tab, where you can go through “edit page”. Next, go to the “interests” attachment, where you enter all the necessary information. After this, the entered data must be saved. Themes for VK will help lift your mood. Preferences
This line is intended to reflect the participant's preferences in music.
This is manifested in writing genres of music, movements, performers, groups, songs, albums, names of composers. Genres can be divided into rock, metal, classical, rap, hip-hop, popular, folk, lyrical, club music. Everything will depend on the level and scale of imagination of each user. Who owns the account also matters. For example, girls most often enter styles and genres such as pop, club, lyric, dance, rock-pop, etc. On the guys' pages there is a commitment to heavy music, rock and its various versions, as well as hard core and metal. Much less common are supporters of classical music, among which works by composers and various orchestras stand out. What to write?
Usually they write the names of songs and their performers, listing them separated by commas.
But you can start filling out a line with an unusual, original phrase. It can start with the words “music that inspires” or “that you like.” Next, you need to indicate songs, albums, artists, and what countries they are from. It is better to break down your preferences by destination or country, which can be divided into domestic and foreign. The latter varies across continents and countries. In the first case, it is European, Asian, African, Australian, South American or North American. In the second, Spanish, French, Italian, Balkan, Greek, etc. For better systematization, all songs can be divided by albums and years, artists and themes. The same principle can be followed when downloading music. Music for guys and girls
The main rule is to be honest and write the truth, since most users can write something completely different. This is done to attract attention and gain subscribers. This is especially true for girls who strive to look attractive and unique. But writing the names of little-known groups without studying their work is not correct. Among the VKontakte participants there may be those who are more deeply familiar with the activities and repertoire. And in order to listen to new songs, you can for free. Guys can ignore the music section altogether, or write some general phrases.
