the finest of display names only

"tickle me lmao" is def finest material - if your was before slock's then we slept

yours*

well what can I say but thanks? and wake up, sheeple.

alright after a bit of scholarly research it seems that
(1) jordan had "tickle me imo"
(2) he did this about a year or so before you
(3) it was never finested

in retrospect jordan's was pretty topical as i think we were all in the middle of punning abbrevs at that point and probably should have been finested. yours is a fair bite because "tickle me imo" was never immortalized itt - so u get an honorary finest from me

wait, you guys are CURATING this now

I mean, if you want me to shed a little perspective on this:

(1) Theophilus Gurnington invented the light bulb
(2) he did so about fifty years or so before Edison
(3) it was never finested

in retrospect Warren's was pretty topical as i think we were all in the middle of fiddling with arc lamps at that point and probably should have been finested. yours is a fair bite because "cowpat filament encased in a mason jar" was never immortalized ih - so Edison gets an honorary finest from me

history is written by those who do it best, not those who do it first. obviously my electric gadget example falls far short of the scale on which ilx usernames operate, but it's the best I've got.

if you were the guys who invented "tickle me lmao", you'd have invented "tickle me lmao"

haha

OK I GET IT GUYS

Hey as long as this thread is getting pedantic might I point out that bombay the hard way thing is not an obscure bollywood comp, but a remix project of one specific set of composers done by dan the automator themoreyouknow.jpg

and not especially obscure either

i would say a dan the automator remix comp counts as obscure.

yeah wtf are you guys talking about

yeah a very well advertised, well-stocked comp by one of the most visible producers of the era is so "obscure" by the standards of a board of music nerds, get bent

what about get bent

WHAT IS THIS RARE TREAT, SOMEONE SHOULD TELL THE NUMERO GUYS ABOUT THIS UNTAPPED RECORD

dude you are something else

u are living in a fantasyland if that album doesn't not DEFINE obscure

I didn't realize HI DERE released a remix record of bollywood tunes

yeah, dan the automator one of the most visible producers of the era. there he is, right up there with timabaland, the neptunes, dr. dre, polow da don and others as someone who has changed popular music inextricably and has IN TURN become an international star himself

dan the automator. yep.

I also didn't know carl weingarten cared so passionately about display names

just the other night i was watching an nba game, and there was dan the automator, sitting there courtside with chris brown. i was pretty pissed that he was implicitly supporting spousal abuse by hanging around with chris brown, but what are you gonna do about famous people? they only wanna hang out with other famous people.

In August of 2010, California band dredg announced via their website that Dan the Automator will be producing their fifth album, set for a release in March of 2011.

og the era meaning like 1998 through 2001 when he was producing fucking Gorillaz that sold 10 million copies, you dipshit

well, would YOU want to be rushed by fans wanting your autograph on your bollywood remix comps?

no one has ever heard of this album

assuming that this bollywood remix album is a household name is truly preposterous

yeah, because if there's one producer that was able to transcend both the hit cartoon band and damon albarn it was danger mouse dan the automator

you guys

cease.

polow the don isnt in the same fucking era, shitforbrains. i'm talking about this window of time in 2001 when ilxors like me and s1ocki were at brick and mortar record stores and you were rubbing your dick on your pokemon cards

there it is

slocki obv otm -- i guarantee you that i could walk onto my campus tomorrow in my world of young people and stop 200 people and not one of them would've heard of "bombay 2: electric vindaloo", dan the automator's bollywood remix collection

i will stop arguing this on the ONE condition that whiney admits that he is totally insane

dan the automator is probably not even in the top 10 most famous people associated w/ the gorillaz

every thread now, guys?

no one is saying its a household name, you dummies. i'm saying it really shouldn't be obscure by ILX standards. I didn't know you guys were such "What is the indie rock you say?!" babes in the woods about everything

whiney my offer is still on the table

guys the "and bickering" in the thread is meant to be IRONIC
