[MP3]
Au Revoir Simone Another Likely Story (Neon Indian Remix)

Does n e 1 remember the glory days of 2k7-2k8, back when 'remixes' were something to get 'fucking pumped up about' with your bros. Now that they have become such deliberate marketing strategies, it is more difficult to 'get wrapped up in the spirit' of two semi-related artists coming together to create one mp3 that would unite their fan bases, usually in some sort of dancey lil fun thing.

I am feel 'happy' about the opportunity to download this mp3. It seems like NeonIndian/Vega bro might be 'poised' to take over Classixx currently assumed position as 'most bloggable remixer of the era.' Fortunately, he is also a 'live band' so he can overcome the limitations of many 'bedroom producers/synth collectors' who tend to dominate the Remix Economy. It seems like Neon Indian will soon enter the 'Passion Pit' phase of getting 'over-covered' and possibly 'resented', but NeonIndian's potential for non-gimmicky longevity seems 'high.'

Wonder if we are watching another 'legitimate scene member' as he eventually ascends to being covered like 'a real alt celeb who people take seriously.' Kinda weird when altcelebs make 'the leap' from buzzband to 'relevant alt celeb who is covered by blogs even when they take a lil poop.' Might be wrong, and there might be a 'huge ass' backlash against the chillwave era. Artists who were tied to chillwave should 'distance themselves' from the label if they are interested in long term internet sustainability.

Another important thing for a blogger to 'muse about' is the existence of Au Revoir Simone. It seems like after this remix, we can definitively say that the band is best consumed in remix/electro form. While their 'free spirited' girly aesthetic appeals to lil indie girls and altbaguettes who live in an 'alt dream world', it seems hard to consistently empathize with the tone of their songs. This analysis might be 'null and void' since the voice of HRO is 'a huge misogynist' and finds women 'close to impossible' to authentically empathize with.

Have u heard any bloggable mp3s lately, or is the scene 'fucking dry'? (sorta like a college campus during finals when I am trying 2 score some adderall) Ugh. Can't study/concentrate without it. :-(

Neon Indian is meaningless. Washed out is much, much better. Chillwave died last month either way.

theo's picture

@Charles, washed out is hella boring. chillwave will never die. it is just hibernating

if you like adderall, throw a provigil into the mix. its the shit that military bros use to stay awake when they r on multiple day missions. amazing.

cobones's picture

@abbt, well if you want a straight upper those are good but if you wanna feeel good 'Dexedrine' has the goods.

@cobones, @abbt benadryl does wonders

abbt's picture

@cobones, will try, my psychiatrist will prescribe me basically anything.

@abbt,

provigil with amphetaspeed is epic fail--they cancel each others effects from my experience. not surprising because provigil massively ups the enzyme activity that breaks down addy/dexy in the body.

THIS IS THE "TRANSITION PERIOD" BEFORE THE NEW DECADE WE WILL JUST HAVE TO SEE WHAT STYLES THE NEW GENERATION ADOPTS AND WHETHER THEY ARE AUTHENTIC ... IT'S BETTER FOR US TO BE THANKFUL FOR THIS DECADE ... THIS DECADE WAS "INDIE" ... THE LAST DECADE WAS "ALTERNATIVE" ... IT'S ALWAYS THERE JUST CHANGING

the blogable concept of 'neon indian' is a really funny joke because it continues to persist.
