pc music have some pretty out-there shit in their roster imo
young thug's formula:
vaguely threatening non-sequiturs
simple eponymous refrain
rpt x3 or 4
anyway, whatever mates. 'youthful' doesn't mean young. the rock band wire are pushing 70 and they are youthful

SV, fair enough, but what about the other producers? I tend to prefer SOPHIE's and DL Harle's stuff
― imago, Thursday, 11 June 2015 19:37 (eleven years ago)
if "trap queen" doesn't have youthful energy i will eat my fuckin copy of pink flag m8

imo closest american equivalent to pc music & generally the sort of thing i think of as 'youthful':

last few wire records are amazing but amazing because they actually seem sort of stately and autumnal post punk imo not embarassingly trying to recapture what they did

xpost see but the thing about is nobody in America listens to whatever that is & everybody listens to "trap queen"

Harle is listenable but, idk, it's all pretty basic and there's nothing that makes me want to return to it.
― Petite Lamela (ShariVari), Thursday, 11 June 2015 19:47 (eleven years ago)
also I'm pretty sure RP Boo is in his 40s but I guess "youthful" means something else now
― Number None, Thursday, 11 June 2015 19:49 (eleven years ago)
that reinforces my point
― imago, Thursday, 11 June 2015 19:49 (eleven years ago)
anyway, i think trap queen is awful & boring but i'm not gonna go onto fetty wap's thread and attack ppl who like it *dons halo*
just tell yourselves 'lj has defective taste and bad ears' and this will all go away

all of this happened because a load of people outright dismissed something that i really like parts of, and dismissed nastily too
if the same happened to something you liked, with the same volume of pile-on, what would you do? don't say 'find a new messageboard' lol piss offfff

I was thinking something like 'Bring it he Katz' isn't too far off this stuff, but less cutesy I guess.

I like a few of the PC Music songs. They doesn't seem especially strange to me, but I listen to a lot of electronic music. I'm a lot more aware of them as a label than I am of most labels, though, so that's at least mildly interesting in itself.
If you've really never heard of Muse or Bastille, though, I'd say you're probably out of your element in a discussion about whether pop is being evoked or parodied or subverted here!
― glenn mcdonald, Thursday, 11 June 2015 20:48 (eleven years ago)
I like a lot of bedroom pop, including Naomi Elizabeth who isn't a million miles away from this
I had to look her up to see if she was who I thought she was ... and indeed, yes, she is the person I was thinking of who played noise shows like helgy described upthread in 2007/2008.

my only memory of her is that she did a song about being or wanting to be a kitty cat and did "sultry" dance moves and it was kinda fun, but also a bit embarrassing

^ enlightening post (sarahell) wrote this on thread ILM's Top 77 Tracks of 2013 on board I Love Music on Jan 21, 2014xp - is Naomi Elizabeth the LA electroclashy chick that sings about being a cat and writhes on the floor?

This was reductive but not inaccurate.

I really want a savannah cat, but they are expensive as fuck.
― how's life, Thursday, 11 June 2015 23:08 (eleven years ago)
they are very pretty, but I saw some savannahs on 'My Cat From Hell' and they seemed terrifying. one took a lump out of Jackson Galaxy's arm
― soref, Thursday, 11 June 2015 23:13 (eleven years ago)
Holy lol at Naomi Elizabeth everything. PC Music should sign her.
