High End Pop for Refined Electro Ears

I think an advantage of having ELECTRO EARS is that you are more likely to appreciate high-end conceptual pop. Frankmusik is a great example of an artist in this genre. Basically, high end pop the kind of music that makes you wonder why popular mainstream pop acts don’t have these usually-European producers make their songs for them. Or usually it’s only a matter of time until a High End Pop act produces a forgotten track on a Brit Spears or Ashlee Simpson album.

I also feel like it’s the European/foreign females who utilize producers like KLEERUP (Lykke Li and Robyn) before Americans do it, so they have more ‘cred’ in alternative circles in an ‘authentic’ kind of way. For some reason I assume this is why Kyle Minogue is respected by ‘every one.’

You could make an argument that most bloghouse/electro music is ‘high end pop.’ U know…like mainstreamers drink Keystone Light and alts drink GreyGoose/Sparks/box wine…or a metaphor like that…

I read in a blog that Girl Talk is the only ALT who still listens to the FM radio.

Also, I am basically mesmerized by the kutie in Frankmusik’s “In Step” video. s0 curvie…

Love the tug job ending! I feel like this video was designed to ‘go viral’ in Europe.

I am s0 glad that I can appreciate high-end pop, and people who don’t ‘get’ it probably just need to read m0re bl0gs that post progressive media that challenges us to be better connoisseurs of ‘the arts.’

Let’s all try to be better people in the 2nd half of 2k8 (yall).

High End Pop might also be the upper limit of the ‘faggy electro’ genre.
