No. He’s part of a bigger picture. What you think is generic is actually genetic. That’s why it’s on point. And drugs.

Him being a talentless retard might very well indeed be genetic.

You’re one of the few that get it.

Man Like Monkey does too. He’s into the local **** where he’s at grime and it’s trap down here.

I think they should start collaborating.

If Yes and the Sex Pistols can exist in the same genre and both get respect then so can Aesop Rock and Waka Flocka Flame. I don't even know why this seems to be controversial. I think white people are just self-conscious about black rap fans calling them bustas.

Ja sound definitely comes first. Good lyrics aren't required but they can give records more longevity. Good point but the track you posted was mediocre.

How about some new sound that isn't trend hopping?

Add it to the 2016 docket.

That does seem really cool. Write it up for me.

noel akchote mary halvorson live in strasbourg

https://noelakchote.bandcamp.com/alb...-in-strasbourg

Two great guitarists that go great together.

Halvorson is a leading voice in jazz guitar and Akchoté is wildly prolific and appears to be able to play anything from transcriptions of any 20th C composer to very early western music to free jazz.

Electronica 2: The Heart of Noise - Jean-Michel Jarre

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikiped...ectronica2.jpg

This has been subjected to massive bad reviews, in some ways justifiable but I feel like people are sort of looking at wrong. Like if it were Kraftwerk it would be forgiven as adorable camp instead of pathetic kitsch. Jarre, who perhaps more than any other shamelessly married ectronics and pop deserves more leeway. He did study with Pierre Schaeffer. I also think it’s cool he samples Edward Snowden. It’s not that I don’t get that this album has shortcomings; it’s that I think it’s the wrong way to look at it.

Side note: Jean-Michel Jarre has played three exceptionally huge concerts.

Rendez-vous Houston: A City in Concert

This 1986 event was at the time the largest concert ever with over a million people in attendance.

Paris La Défense – Une Ville En Concert

In 1990, he broke the record again with a staggering attendance of over 2 million in Paris.

And over 3 Million in Moscow



Damn. Those Russians will come out for a free show!

How does Willie Nelson release anything to this little fanfare? There was another Demo release in 2003 Crazy: The Demo Sessions. These are different versions and more songs but released digitally only and the 2016 releases apparently received no attention. They don’t even have a mention on wiki or anything. These may not be the go-to versions of these songs but they’re not like throwaway half takes either. It’s Willie Nelson no matter how you slice it.

I’m going to embed YouTube clips, one from this double digital release and the the early Demo album: same very famous track, Crazy
