Which artists legacies have improved/worsened during the 2010s?

Uffie was in a relationship with Feadz and that’s the only reason why she got mildly relevant in the first place. The music on her first eps were very competent for the scene but as soon as she started performing them live (quite awfully) it was obvious she had no talent and got cancelled. Didn’t seem to affect Justice as quickly and they were also pretty mediocre performers... I think they even got caught on a festival with their gear not even connected iirc.

My fingers crossed for booming Legendary Pink Dots, Nits, Shelleyan Orphan, Associates and Rasputina threads at the end of next decade.

Don't hear as much Beefheart love as I used to.

And pray for Laura Nyro too!

I predict a considerable drop in autotune particularly in rap music. Autotune will be vaulted as a 10’s aesthetic.

Also trap beats are out. Trip hop/r&b beats are in.

I feel like Boredoms are not talked about as much now

With how perfect and sterile most pop/electronic/hip hop production has sounded this decade, I predict the next will try to make it sound “more imperfect”. So yeah, no autotune, use of live instruments instead of synthesized ones and J Dilla’s stock will rise like it did in the early 00’s.

Boredoms haven't released anything in a decade, so I guess out of sight out of mind.

oh wait here’s a really good one: amanda palmer/the dresden dolls

8.2 for this steampunk horseshit

What the fuck is that shit?

Previous video is the second Dresden Dolls song I've heard. The first was 15 years ago. And I only just became aware of Billie Ellish last week.

hfs, I want to die

ah, the 2000s

crazy times, maaaaan

OK, now I know who Amanda Palmer is (of “amanda palmer’s open letter to robert smith and other crimes” fame).

Amanda MacKinnon Gaiman Palmer[3] (/ˈpɑːlmər/; born April 30, 1976), sometimes known as Amanda Fucking Palmer,[1][2]

Fiery Furnaces undeservedly disappeared

I mean, ok. we can talk about the grandma albums. but Blueberry Boat is all time

It seems to me that 20th c. classical music, including EA, is more popular now than it was 2000-2010.

It wasn't popular then and it isn't popular now, I'm still going to half/quarter empty concerts with the same 20 people in the audience, when there are any actual concerts which is once in a blue moon.

Furnaces were not very popular, and they stopped doing their thing, so... :(

Blueberry Boat is all time

cosign

Not a fan of Blueberry Boat. Big fan of Gallowsbird Bark and Eleanor’s recent solo records

I kinda liked Rehearsing My Choir tbh

Of course you did, it's frickin' awesome

Eleanor is still doing her thing, I think she gets some AAA AirPlay now, which the furnaces definitely never did lol

You’re forgetting “Clear Signal From Cairo (Bob Clearmountain mix) – feat. Macy Gray & Mark McGrath”

When I first started posting here like 5 years ago y’all were posting like crazy about Amanda Palmer

i don’t really get this thread.. what are the artists who’s reputation is the same

The Beatles

is Brice Hornsby down or up? His new album is horrible and it has bon iver on it.

i don’t really get this thread.. what are the artists who’s reputation is the same

uhhhhhh really

Uhhh, radiohead’s feels the same?

do people still like blonde?

blondie

what about los lobos? probably no one cared about them in the 00s either

whatever, have fun

With how perfect and sterile most pop/electronic/hip hop production has sounded this decade, I predict the next will try to make it sound “more imperfect”. So yeah, no autotune, use of live instruments instead of synthesized ones

Such optimism is contagious.

Amanda Palmer's one of those artists whose apparent newsworthiness and media profile have always seemed to massively dwarf any interest in her actual music.

Also I feel like the reputation of a lot of backackerish/conscious rap - Mos Def, The Roots etc - has been gradually recovering for a while after being very unfashionable a decade ago.

There's also been a sense for a while that younger dance music critics are absolutely desperate to move away from house and techno despite their enduring popularity and total ubiquity. The latest manifestation of that is the return of breakbeats to the sort of scenes where they would have been criminally unfashionable for most of the 00s.

(Ricardo Villalobos definitely down by the way but Autechre are definitely up)

i don’t really get this thread.. what are the artists who’s reputation is the same

Pink Floyd iirc

Obviously the thread is about notable examples

Pink Floyd=RULES (always)

Liz Phair’s profile has risen from where it was in the 2000s

Yeah, I don't remember much fanfare when I saw her in 2010, but she instantly sold out two big shows here last year.

Boredoms haven't released anything in a decade, so I guess out of sight out of mind.

and the stuff they were doing was just goddamn drum circles, i can go for some serious hippie shit but drum circles will never be cool

I thought people were really into that? I thought it was pretty exciting but I only heard it at one gig.

Everybody loved Boadrum! But it was extremely not for me. My enjoyment of that band shifted heavily over to OOIOO over the past decade

I am unable to suspend disbelief when faced with that explosion of joy at the beginning of Vision Creation Newsun.

Is that one of the drum circle albums?

More so than its predecessors but not quite.
