Music Video: Fan Death – Veronica’s Veil.mp3

Fan Death: the Glass Candy of 2k9? I will listen to them more than I realize & I won’t be able to tell how much I like their music. I just listen to it because it sounds ‘kinda disco-y + a lil bit authentic.’ I allegedly value the ‘production value.’ They are also 2 girls and some bro producer. Not sure if I want 2 start crushing on 1 of them yet. (miss u Alice Glass)

Music Video: the Jewels – Who Will Save Yalls Soul

This Jewel girl is a new up-and-coming artist who is changing the independent music scene. I know that there aren’t many women in the music industry, but after the Jewels, things might be different. Her song ‘Who Will Save Your Soul’ is about George W. Bush’s Presidency. Kinda makes me want 2 be religious.

Music Video: The Postal Services – We Will Become Silhouettes

This is a band by indie startup bloghaus band The Postage Servicing. U can see that the band is a group of authentic friends who united under the common goal of making meaningful music together. The song is about being afraid of dying without leaving ur mark on society. (afraid2die, yall) The Postal Service is certainly a band to watch in 2k9.

In 2k9, HRO will be all about ‘breaking bands’ that yall have nvr heard of.

I have a Satty Radio show. I have awesome taste in music, yall!
(better taste than u) ///my blog is on the hypemachine
The most music u will ever share is in a meaningless car ride in ur Honda Accord with a group of your closest friends. Or maybe on a mix CD for your mom’s Birthday.
Love u, carles! ///bye
PS: Do yall know n e buzz bands that I should play on my nxt radio show? Feel like I’m really ‘leaving my mark on society’, yall. 1 person can(’t) make a diff.

I think people feel like they can appreciate authentic disco because it’s more meaningful than blog house/they think the ‘disco sound’ has had a relevant impact on society+music history. The thing about modern authentic disco is that I am not ‘blown away’ by it, but I am strangely drawn into aligning my personal brand with it.

It’s sort of like wearing a ‘retro’ jersey/baseball cap of a formerly authentic sports team to prove that you are a ‘real fan’ of what sports are ‘truly all about.’

Gregg Gillis will wear this retro hat from his hometown team in 2k10 when mainstreamers start to accuse him of being ‘too mainstream.’

****RELATED AUTHDISCO MP3 *****

I wonder if Fan Death will be considered authentic disco enough to start getting some m0re mainstream ‘web magazine’ coverage if Hercules and Love Affair stop generating enough tour dates to keep blurbing about.

FAN DEATH: if they make more songs, can HRO spend a whole month talking about how HOT they are?

Fan Death already has conceptual ‘web’ art, much like Crystal Castles’s faceless promo pix. Does ur startup myspace band have conceptual web media?
