But the monogenre is the sound of the future!

Well that or KIX.

You missed this:

They are both in 4/4 in the Key of F and hit some of the same notes. To me thats not much of a similarity.
The Tame Impala song is F – C – Gm and the Argentinean one is F – Bb – C. Those might look similar on paper but the feel is totally different. Ending on that Gm (the ii of the key) gives the Tame song a beautiful sense of longing and unrest. The other one lacks that because it’s based on the 3 major chords in a key absolutely no emotional unease/conflict (can be generally a great thing too, see every Ramones song). Put one of these in a different key and the similarities would vanish.

Some people want to fill the world with silly love songs, and some people write silly love songs about fucking someone hard on the sink whilst avoiding sullying expensive furs with semen. The point is: it’s not about the specifics, it’s about the love; and that’s why this collaboration makes sense.

Not similar enough to warrant any legal action whatsoever. But to his credit, that Pablito guy knows how to rock a popped collar.

Are those tour dates for Pablo Ruiz? Asking for a friend…

dude no no no do not compare this to Yeezus

Why buy anything when you can just tape stuff off the radio?

I’m really getting tired of Black artists complaining about other races “perpetuating”, “stealing” (or whatever) Black culture, Hip-Hop culture, etc. We don’t own it! The minute we started doing the same things Taylor Swift was trying (and failing) to do in her video in our OWN videos, for PROFIT, for FAME, for EXPOSURE we gave up the rights to it. What, its ok if a Black artist twerks in a video, or has on gaudy-ass gold earrings and necklaces simply because they’re Black? NOPE. Taylor Swift is not trying to steal or perpetuate anything. Hell, seems to me she’s trying to say ‘Sorry, this just ain’t me! I’m just an uncoordinated White chick. Deal with it.”

Oh, and it is possible to like certain things in a culture but be afraid of some of its people. This all or nothing mentality is just ridiculous.

Bad Stereogum! No biscuit. Create exaggerated headline, presumably to get more page views. A more responsible headline would say roughly “Aphex Twin Teases Potential New Album SYRO Via Deep Web”.

News is exciting. Information is encouraging, especially if there is a Warp Records link. Headline is misleading; this is NOT an official release announcement.

as in only homos would like it

“Britt Daniel loves Chipotle, and dammit, so do I. Chipotle.” – Ok that last sentence wasn’t there, but it may as well have been.

The article seems to start after the embedded video.

Is this fucking sponsored by Chipotle or something?

dude is straight, white (boy is he EVER white, you can not get any more white than michael cera), cisgender, and rich. you know who would have more interesting things to say artistically? LITERALLY ANYONE ELSE. i’m not saying he couldn’t release this wet fart of an album, i’m just saying it distracts from other people who, you know, deserve attention.

I hope this gets editor’s choice, I don’t think any comment this week can even come close…
