Lamestreamers on facebook discover the chillwave genre
The page you requested does not exist. A search for tag sufjan stevens page 2 resulted in this page.


Chillwave is a new and exciting genre that existed in 2k9, but now it is kinda dormant, and we are waiting to see how chillwave clashes with 'the big guns' of indie in 2k11. Gonna be a 'huge showdown', and there will be casualties. No1 knows what is going to happen.

So even though ur super relevant and ovr chillwave, there is an entire genre of humans who are still discovering it. They are like 'wow, these vibes are so amazing, have yall heard of this shit?' Glad facebook exists so we can discover these vibes.

Check out these laggard chillwavers vibing out on facebook

First some bro embeds the hit mp3 by Washed out "Feel it All Around." He is like, "Have yall heard of this band, they are called Washed Out. For some reason they remind me of Panda Bears.... I could rlly use some Neon Indians, yall!"

Then he comes right back and embeds another video. No idea wtf he embedded, but was probably something hella lame/hella chill.

Then some bro is like "Listen fggtzz, we call this lofi electro. U should check out Toro Y Moi. I'm the shit. Yall blow."

Another bro is like "Have yall heard of the Small Black? Heard they are chillwave, yall. Love buzzbands"

Then an EPIC BRO comes along for a chill moment, and is like "THEY CALL THIS SHIT CHILLWAVE BITCHES! PEACE I'M OUTTIE EFFING LAMESTREAMERS. SEE YALL IN HELLLLLL. MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAH I'M THE SHIT. RIDING CHILLWAVES WITH MY BROS. EFF EVERY1. GONNA DEACTIVATE FACEBOOK AND START CHILLBOOK. L8RS.'

********
Is chillwave 'dead'?
Will chillwave live on 4evr?
R u excited for indie vs chillwave in 2k11?
Who is ur fave chillwave band/the band most likely 2 'live 4evr'?
Do u talk abt buzzbands/relevant genres on facebook?
Will lamestreamers ever talk about rape gaze on facebook?

Starting out with Twin Shadow again then right into that super gay Whitest Boy Alive track that he plays all the freaking time. A lot more "old" tracks than new tracks this week. Carles is always so chill. I wonder if he ever rocks out when he is alone or if he just listens to cheesy dance pop all the time.

i have warned you

i have warned you all
lamestreamers are evolving
finding 'our' music via google/bing.com
listening 2 it
even enjoying it

we must stop the lamestream encroachment
we must migrate from facebook
to an alt-er domain (name)
an 'altered zone' [via p4k + gvb branding strategy]
we must preserve indie
from the effing lamestreamers

Don't worry, bro.

Don't worry, bro. Lamestreamers only hear about buzzworthy bands via indy movie soundtracks and car commercials.

Clearly indy movies stopped being relevant in the early 2ks so that's one avenue blocked. That leaves adz, and ever since Apple stopped needing to advertise anything to sell 10 million units, lamestreamers cant hear the Ting Tings before us.

We'll always be at least a week ahead, bro.

doesnt matter how many ppl

doesnt matter how many ppl start listening to chillwave. nickleback and miley cyrus will rule the airwaves and tour in their cyborg bodies all across the galaxy and making loads of bank in the future. chillwave needs some healthy amount of people to keep them afloat before they turn thrity and get a job in real estate.

that was prob. the most obnoxious facebook conversation yet. even though their musical knowledge is 'more advanced' than an MGMT bro, it was like entry level one-upmanship being felt all around.

like the bro saying 'its lofi electro like toro y moi. like who the eff asked you, bro?

Brononymous's picture

It was a private conversation

It was a private conversation which was aired publicly, so I think it was probably between those friends, bro. That bro was probs rejecting "chiillwavvvess" and redefining it under a more relevant genre(s). Also, bro, what the f*** do you know?

remember the 1st time I heard chillwave y'all back in Q2 of 2k9
felt like all was right in teh world
1.5 yrs later some lamestreamers are now into riding the chillwaves
feel like 1.5 yrs is a pretty typical turnaround time for alt to lamestream in this post-post-modern world y'all
maybe we should embrace it?

Chillwave just kind of sounds

Chillwave just kind of sounds like cheap Boards of Canada with bad singing to me.

sheatheman's picture

boards of canada wasn't

boards of canada wasn't produced under any pretense of being relevant/informed of what is going on. chillwave is produced with a strong consideration for how it will perceived, an intentional mix of uniformity and originality. BOC is music for music.

i wrote about this on the post about Wavves.

Omg 2k11 face-off hs started

Omg 2k11 face-off hs started (via @GREGORY)

Is chillwave a 'bad indie' ?
Will indie 'owns' chillwavves in 2k11?
Will keut ntrylvlrs in 2k11 'digs' Boards Of Canada?
Or will 2k11 see more of 'indie v mnstrm indie' instead? (via ArFi v LeonKings)
Will th FollowilBros fight ArFi onstage instead of thmslvs in 2k11?
