Well......
I tend to look at _white_ music as being the kind of music that a really
angry sub-human species would play on attacking the neighbouring tribe.
It's all 4/4 every-beat-a-beat music (with gabber being the apex of this
kind of music). That doesn't mean it's bad, just straightforward.
The _black_ music thing seems more syncopated, more colourful improvising
stuff played by people who were actually relaxing at the time it was
played. Todays' MTV-r-n'-b is the apex of THAT kind of music, where music
and lyrics make abrupt stops every 1.5s and making rhythm and
counter-rhythm come together in confusing (as in: not-straightforward) ways.
This is a highly subjective classification, and has nothing to do with any
political correct meanings or implications whatsoever. The black metal
thing would, in this definition, be utterly impossible... ;)
My two cents, and in English, for lack of better Turku...
