all of this is systemic to the ‘music theory’ intellectuals because it really is ‘the harmonic style of 18th century European musicians’ but they just don’t want to deal with critical takes on it

Lol I knew the exact video that you linked before I clicked on it.

I really think music theory needs to take the route of linguistics and try to analyze patterns in enjoyable music and try to figure out what makes something “music”. You are right that music theory right now is just a bunch of lanky white guys jacking each other off but it could be a lot more.
