dude potch fork totally stole my line about that john maus record. do they read this site?

what was your line?

too lazy to look for it, too lazy to read the whole review. I closed my eyes and saw it, so trust me here

do they read this site?

lolol

wow - the maus review was filed on march 12, a few weeks before the maus/legend comment in the thread, but that is incredibly odd.

great minds think alike.

burt_stanton, too.

Coz any Americans might not see this on its other thread....

Are you fucking listening, Pitchfork’s [nabisco] [.]?

lol at calling Beth Orton's Trailer Park "William Orbit-produced", which anyone with two ears and a copy of Ray of Light/13/etc. will tell you is clearly not. Props for ""She Cries Your Name" still sounds great, with Orbit's luxuriously gloomy string arrangement" -- Eric Harvey, do you even know who William Orbit is?

Uh, William Orbit did produce that particular song, but not anything else on the album.

He co-wrote the song, but the versions he produced appeared on her debut SuperPinkyMandy and his own Strange Cargo: Hinterland. I'm pretty sure the one on Trailer Park--which is radically different--was Andrew Weatherall

Okay, I may be wrong on that one. I don't have a copy of the album anymore, but I thought he was credited as producing that one.

In episode 2F09, when Itchy plays Scratchy's skeleton like a xylophone, he strikes the same rib twice in succession, yet he produces two clearly different tones. I mean, what are we to believe, that this is some sort of a magic xylophone or something? Boy, I really hope somebody got fired for that blunder.

oh shush, fucking up a producer credit is not a blooper.

it's a capital crime

it's an insult to nature
the case against god

anyone with two ears could tell this

cant believe you idiot bags even read pitchfork anymore

it's light morning reading

for idiotbags

so is the ny times

it's light morning reading

i'm a dork i can't help it

Why read when you can watch?

i check it every morning to make sure they are shaping the indie world's opinion of Gucci Mane in a positive way /sarge

jeez poor charlie you can tell it's so humiliating for him

this is the best list/feature/whatever i've ever seen on pitchfork..

http://pitchfork.com/features/staff-lists/7849-the-top-50-music-videos-of-the-1990s/

It's the first time I've seen them post a big list/feature/whatever where I liked every selection.. I didn't think it was possible.

writing on that is really good -- i imagine it was all scott?

Yeah it had to be all scott .. he probably chose the videos too.

I'm a little upset this hasn't recieved more fanfare.. it kinda made my week.

Looks like a great list, at a glance. Really wish I had time to watch 50 YouTube videos and give this some attention. (I've probably seen about half of these videos otherwise... really good stuff.)

so this thing has continued into The Top 200 Tracks of the 1990s

http://pitchfork.com/features/staff-lists/7854-the-top-200-tracks-of-the-1990s-200-151/

and this is what i'd call the best list i've ever seen on pitchfork.

the dance people have brought their a-game entirely.

seeing 'real love' like 10 spots below 'dry the rain' is the pt at which i throw up my hands & o_O at indie

okay maybe i have been ignoring the indie choices a little.

Top 50 will be lots of indie, I bet we're seeing all the "dance" stuff early (i.e., lower) in the list.

#1 will be, like, "Summer Babe"

#2 will be "Paranoid Android"

#3 will be "The Insistor"

#4 will be butthole surfers 'pepper'

just realize markers prob never was around when that was big & felt old :(

Not many bands can become succesful with the word butthole in their name

#1 will be, like, "Summer Babe"

blurb transmitted from the past by ott on an old napkin touched by malkmus.

Ironically, despite its enduring legacy as the Neptunes' breakthrough, "SuperThug" wasn't Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo's first chart hit. That belonged to Ma$e, whose "Lookin' At Me" bore the Neptunes' imprimatur and reached no. 8 on Billboard's Hot 100. No one remembers "Lookin' at Me", but "SuperThug", released the same year, is unforgettable.

RUMP SHAKER????????? other than that, p good list so far.

Why more then than now? Shouldn't it be opposite?

If the majority of festival attendees in any given year are in their 20s (a reasonable assumption, I think), the 20-something Pitchfork hipsters of 2013 are likelier to have experienced Aaliyah as a childhood radio staple than the 20-something Pitchfork hipsters of 2008, the older ones of which may have already abandoned top-40 radio for less-mainstream fare by the time Aaliyah became popular. (Raises hand.)

Also, Aaliyah seems to be trendier than she was 5 years ago, with various strains of "hipster R&B" citing her as an influence and last year's Katy B/Jessie Ware song "Aaliyah" getting Pitchfork props. (Not to mention her music recently being coopted by mainstream artists such as Drake and Chris Brown in obvious bids for coolness.)

Yeah, XX all up in that.

Oh yeah.
