sorry, i feel like i'm being negative all over this morning.

diplo's whole inept musical anthropology thing skeezes me out, especially in this context. in a nutshell, the post-katrina carpetbagging hipster types have seized on "sissy bounce" as a thing to get really into and be really excited about, which is cool, except that regular bounce music, which is way way way more popular, is generally ignored by the (almost entirely white) hipster bounce brigade. the way it seems to me is that these people (who are certainly the people that hipped diplo to the whole thing) can only engage with this culture when it is to a large extent (and this is a generalization but it would take forever to fully go into it) emasculated.

no, but those are all really great arguments, except that the way the video itself comes of as tough and menacing kind of makes them irrelevant?

i don't think it tries to come off as especially tough or menacing. also it has diplo in it.
― 40oz of tears (Jordan), Thursday, 22 March 2012 22:11 (1 year ago) Permalink
well it's people dancing and then every once in a while diplo pops up to menace people's sense of ownership over their own cultural production?

He's from Norway and has an album coming later this year, but that's all I know. In one of his other youtubes, he's accompanied by Billie Van (who I just stumbled across a few weeks ago, so that's good too).

its just not my thing, i think? like im not above the american apparel afterparty aesthetic thats going down or w/e but im not sure it really manages to skirt being exploitative and gross. maybe im just becoming a prude or no fun at all i am eating chicken soup alone on a friday nite...
much more into the meditative slow burn atm i guess i.e.:

ha, i feel you.
i just kind of came out of a slump of not being social, not exercising, and not eating healthy, and i feel better today than i have in weeks so an ironic black magic disco orgy feels so right to me today

dear diary,
i woke up in high spirits today its sunny but clear and cold and i decided to wear my favorite sweater to work. i watched this new video by a band called part time its for a song called 'i want to take you out'. its a silly video but incidental set design really pleased me and i liked the song a lot. on the way to work someone complimented my outfit so i think its going to be a really good day.
p.s. heres the video i was talking about:
