DAS RACIST and the annual indie fuxxor electronic novelty hit

yeah but i dunno..i heard "lucas with the lid off" and "cantaloop" on alt-rock stations at the time, not so much "funk dat," so it feels like somehow of a different breed.

this is not about radio play, it's about embracing a novelty electronic song in a slightly ironic wacky way, which applies to both Doc Martin hipsters in 94 re sagat and keffiyah kidz in 09 re wacky fast food song

i don't know if you're 15 or something like the rest of the autogoon cru or whatever, but flannel dudes at my school were def doing the "maaaan... funk dat" thing for about 6 weeks.

what about "genie in a bottle" + "hard to explain" - certainly that was "a novelty electronic song" that was embraced in a "slightly ironic wacky way"

xpost: yes. to me that's what makes it fit this mold better. it was referencing the "other".

i dont think anyone irl outside of ppl who live in brooklyn know about "combination pizza hut and taco bell" - people are still shouting "I'M ON A BOAT" tbh

xxpost

pedantic jordan s. missing the fuckin point is becoming a monthly occurance too.

I don't remember anyone embracing genie in a bottle, but I wasn't hanging around too many ironical dudes at the time

1st ironical embrace of genie I can remember is the strokes mashup

i'd love to be all BUT PEOPLE IN KANSAS CAN READ BLAWGZ, but you're probably right. consider this thread a prediction of pizza song's oncoming cult status.

whatever man - i dont know any of these songs - yall can talk about 1994 i was 6 yrs old \(o_O)/

internet people def know about this esp since it got reviewed on pitchfork but if people at your college were going around referencing "funk dat" for 6 months i can guarantee that people at my college are not sending me texts that say "i'm at the pizza hut!!" and we went to comparable colleges size/city wise

llbean back pack full of cassingles slung over one shoulder, mang

I think maybe I wouldn't have to go on screaming rampages about my shitty job prospects at Twitter conferences if I spent more time looking for work and less time having 2 a.m. chat sessions with people that used to watch Eureeka's Castle.

tbh the annual indie fuxxor electornic novelty hit of 09 is that 3OH!3 song

3OH3 is mainstream fuxxor iirc

i mean people who are going to women/men/boys/girls warehouse shows probably aren't fucking with 3OH!3 but people who are vampire weekend/decemberists/broken social scene "mainstream" indie fuck with that song as far as i can tell

i thought only Bamboozle Fest Fall Out Bros with the big text T-shirts listened to that shit, and no one who actually listened to, like, any indie band that stereogum would cover

I've been meaning to make a shipley-style Idolator post where I categorize the 30 types of hipster so we stop just calling all these disparate groups "hipsters"

im basing that post on small anecdotal evidence but it's not thaaaaat far of a bridge from "discovering" justice to "liking" a 30H!3 song if you listen to stereogum bands

im sure lots of it is "this pop song is so bad it's good!!" or whatever but still

I was under the impression that 3ought!3 is more of a nu-hot topic band. Like maybe there are some people that like them and justice and vampire collective or whatever but they are just the people that list a bunch of new bands + Johnie Cash (sic) on their social profiles.

yeah probs

idgi, it's more "stupid" than "funny" to me but admittedly I am kind of humorless.

whiney's otm here, i can't see anyone who facies themself a hipster liking this song, it's more the warped-tour types

of course most of this shit dan go fuck itslef imo

I've been meaning to make a shipley-style Idolator post where I categorize the 30 types of hipster so we stop just calling all these disparate groups "hipsters"

WOULD READ, MIGHT LAUGH.

3oh!3 just seems like next-decade sugar ray -- which means more electro-disco and whatever. frat-party warped-tour bad-beer and all that, but ilx 2019 will be repping it.

(over asher roth, i hope)

lol, i hope i'm sb'd by then

i wouldn't worry about it if i were you

sadly, im positive i'm closer to 51 than 0

xp

but this thread is about DAS RACIST and HIP HOP BEING FUNNIE

but this thread is about HIP HOP BEING FUNNIE

DAS RACIST

listened to this song last night rolling thru l.a. in a rented suv while one of my bros puked his guts out the side window. it ownz imo, usually hate this kind of shit though.

t(^_^t)

this is severely sub-lonely island

if you told me this was on a new fatboy slim album i wouldn't doubt you for a second.

was hoping that 'peanut butter jelly time' track that claude von stroke did a couple years back would turn into one of these

Pizza Hut is slicing the "pizza" from its boxes and some store signs. The fast food chain will now brand some stores as simply "The Hut."

lol i totally assumed they were gonna chop "hut" because who tf uses that word any more ever

I suggest banned everyone in this thread btw

except for s1ocki

rev's in the pizza hut
rev's in the taco bell
rev's in the combination pizza hut and taco bell

dont get this track

I've only just heard this and Deej OTM. Expected this to be annoying in an awesome, boshing, insanely catchy way and instead it's just annoying in a really half-arsed sub-Flight of the Conchords way.

this is not about radio play, it's about embracing a novelty electronic song in a slightly ironic wacky way, which applies to both Doc Martin hipsters in 94 re sagat and keffiyah kidz in 09 re wacky fast food song

I think you are overthinking this man - it's more about "there have always been novelty records and people dig a good novelty record every now and then" & moreover the pop charts have pretty much vaccinated themselves against good novelty records so if you're gonna enjoy a nice stupid summer novelty jam it's gonna have to come from homemade style stuff

IOW it doesn't really have much to do with hipsters except that they're the ones making the novelty records. if Rick Dees wants to get off his ass and write a good sequel to "Disco Duck," everybody'll throw down for that too for for the time being it's people who claim Brooklyn comin w/insightful wry observations about the intersections of commercial culture & personal interaction

look for my presentation on this in Seattle this year

take that reduplicated "for" and change it to "but for" for improved readability

what a fucking vile record this is

"indie fuxxor electronic novelty hit"

is there a phrase more tailored to making me break out in hives

i kind of miss the old days of thinkpieces on M.I.A. or Odd Future instead of people whose music basically functions as thinkpieces responding to unwritten thinkpieces like Das Racist and #seapunk

I just stopped playing Fleetwood Mac so I could play "Combination Pizza Hut and Taco Bell"

did Le1f do the production on that song? I'm really loving his mixtape from this year

this thread has been so inspiring to me!

you working on the indie fuxxor electronic novelty hit of 2013?

i think i've said too much already

"i'm in the burger king, they're not playing the beatles"

haha you just came up in my fb "people you might know" feed and i friend requested you so i could tell you the story

das rapist

wow these guys are assholes, amazing, i'm so shocked, really

Jesus, these guys are the worst.

wow these guys are assholes, amazing, i'm so shocked, really

wait so you've really just known these guys as the types to sexually assault this whole time?

i didn't know exactly what kind of assholes they were, no

the top comment (now deleted) on a das racist AMA asked about the incident

warning: reddit hivemind might make you want to kill yourself

how is this not really blowing up as a story at all? only thing i really see is noz ranting about it on twitter

it's complicated. i mean, i think it will become more of a thing in the coming day or two. but it's hard for places actual news sites to run a story like this based of just a tumblr post. maybe someone will get an interview with the girl or something that would help solidify things a bit.

which of course isn't to say that the accusation isn't legitimate... but it's a tricky area when you're talking about covering it on a wide scale

also, some dude knew they were assholes already anyway

they dead

*insert "i miss you" here*

i wish i actually cared about these guys.

i think we know why they were assholes to some dude though:

It was rad and he spent a bunch of time making fun of me for coming to his show alone and then some dude rushes up to us and is being super annoying asking for Dap’s autograph and just generally being terrible until Dap just puts a hand up and goes,

“Dude. Can’t you see I’m busy? I don’t know if you’ve met my wife. But this is Gwen. My wife. My WIFE okay?? So I’d appreciate it if I could have some time alone with her.”

I really enjoyed DR's music but it's been pretty clear for the last couple years that they weren't enjoying what they were doing together. I don't remember the last time I saw a band get as jaded as quickly as these guys have

I will miss their brand of hip-hop, though. I know a lot of people dismiss them but I always found them refreshing. my ears are probably broken though

lol jvc

Huh. Tried to see them at the Virgin Festival back in October and their set got cancelled. We got told they broke up, but I never heard anything about it after that so figured it was a joke.

who performed in their place, 3OH!3

If only.

i like them a lot (unashamedly), but this doesn't really bum me out 'cause i've listened to their solo tapes more than the DR stuff.
