The really weird thing is living in Seattle where you go to certain record stores and that culture still exists as a living fossil. Ppl wearing k records and sub pop shirts dropping over $100 on a decemberists first pressing. It�s actually very quaint and endearing.

What I'm saying is that somehow pop culture has decided, music-wise, that there's Boomer bullshit, new Gen Z stuff, and absolutely nothing in between. But I know there was an in between, because I was fuckin there and I lived it!

movie trailers also get slow "epic" remixes of Nirvana and Coolio and probably soon Blink 182

Gen Z is currently raiding Gen X and Millennial pop culture and claiming whatever the gently caress they want.

the xer and millenial musicians are still around but they just make beats on the computer now so its pretty easy for them to collab with the zoomers. everything just sort of becomes an aesthetic influence on contemporary pop/rap production

why would you stick around in a band making increasingly lovely albums to a shrinking audience when you could be one of the 30 producers credited on a new weeknd album instead

Alternatively you could do the phil elverum thing where you essentially retreat to the wilderness living on your indie royalties only to re-enter the scene with a 40 minute musical eulogy for your dead wife that makes everyone weep and recontextualizes your entire body of work with a feeling a profound melancholy

jazz is insanely popular in europe, only place i've been that has common jazz bars packed to the gills and big appreciation of jazz in contemporary society. that and the trains are the only good things about europe

haha I figured someone was going to call me on this. I love a lot of his mount eerie stuff but I don�t think he would be making a living as a musician if not for the microphones. I do wish him the best though, and I hope he keeps self-releasing stuff.
