apparently, if i'm reading the interview correctly, pop music was two guys banging away on a piano writing songs until the studio-less hip-hoppers showed the swedes how to do things quicker.

I'm not clicking on Vice unless it's by accident; has anyone linked Whiney's piece in the comments yet?

okay i just did.

i actually liked that Vice piece.
― Gaz Khan (sarahell), Tuesday, 15 December 2015 22:06 (ten years ago)
i feel like they weren't even trying, instead of talking about actual 'hipster' genres they just put 'acceptable' (or some other euphemism for 'hipster') in front of the name of some super broad genre that's existed for decades.
― Shkreli, Martin & Wu (some dude), Wednesday, 16 December 2015 00:03 (ten years ago)
it's more accurate
― Gaz Khan (sarahell), Wednesday, 16 December 2015 00:13 (ten years ago)
it is! but in a way that undermines the point/structure of the piece
― Shkreli, Martin & Wu (some dude), Wednesday, 16 December 2015 01:01 (ten years ago)
which is?

She seems to be a student and has deleted her Twitter account after getting a lot of stick online. You'd have to be under 19 to think that there's anything new in middle-class ppl getting into grime. It kind of looks like another throw-the-intern-to-the-wolves thing.

If you're not working for a small, specialist publication, can you get people to read/discuss abut music without going down the intern -> wolves route? Not saying it's right, just not all that surprising.
