HIPSTER RUNOFF

[MP3]
Yacht Psychic City

Analysis: I feel 40% 'more willing' to listen to Yacht since they signed with DFA. I think this song is possibly better/worse than I think it is, and might be the type of song that 'defines a summer' in an accidental way because it was relatively inoffensive, seemed kinda fun, and it lends itself to placement on multiple mixCDs/playlists.

Yacht's brand is 'about to be very strong' since they will be grandfathered into 'fun music that is dancey that P4k honors as being authentic.' Sort of wish I had been into them 2 years ago, and accidentally went to one of their shows on a school night, had fun, and totally 'got' them even though most people didn't. They seem pretty 'artist-y.'

Memory Tapes Last One Awake (Friend Version)
Analysis: I think that Memory Tapes is the next 'conceptual-ish' band to 'really look out for' in terms of blowing up a hype bubble. I think that if they put together 30-45 minutes of 'solid music' in an LP, they will probably become one of the most 'listenable' products of 2k10-2k15. Sort of like AnCo pre-MPP, back when you could just 'chill' and listen to them. FEel like I would 'actually' describe them as 'a band that would open for AnCo, except they are actually good.' MemCassy is more 'electro' and possibly has 'more pop sensibilities' than most modern 'conceptual bullshit music.'

Lil Wayne Kobe Bryant

Analysis: This is a song by Lil Wayne about NBA player, Kobe Bryant, who will begin his pursuit of his first NBA championship without the help of Shaq "OMG he has a sillie Twitter" O'Neal. In the song, Lil Wayne honors Kobe by talking about 'how great' he is. I am not sure how I feel about Kobe Bryant. He has always been a bad teammate, and he also 'forced himself' upon some white girl in Colorado. He seems like 'a huge fraud', but not sure if he is actually 'lying' because I don't think he really has a 'true self.'

I don't know how I feel about the current generation of NBA stars. I feel like it is 'kinda forced.' I feel angry that I have to 'suck LeBron James's dick' even though he has never won an NBA championship.

Yall. Just found out about an exciting new subgenre called 'space disco.' I think it is in the Authentic Disco family, except the songs are 'a little bit more spacey' and sort of wander for a little while. It's exciting though. Love learning about new terms that encapsulate what I'm listening 2, kinda like the first time I heard the word 'indie' in 1992.

Appreciating DFA makes me feel more authentic. Like I appreciate music on a higher level than all of the 'typical bloglectro trash' that has corrupted our youth for the past 12 blog months. Might even start to appreciate YACHT, but I haven't made up my mind yet.

Should I like Yacht, or should I wait til they have more songs that were produced at the DFA HQ?

(Should I start 2 crush on the girl in Yacht? She seems kinda kute & attainable & 'not weird'/'moderately in touch with reality' unlike most HRO it girls. Just want an it-girl to settle down with, yall)

N e ways, here is a song by RUNAWAY that I feel comfortable aligning my personal brand with since there is 0% quirkiness and 110% authentic disco.
