kill requests:

 

 

  Reveal hidden contents

 

 

 

-Music blog instant hype generation: kill the trend of music blog hype machine feedback loops, where 'established' genres come and go in a period of 6 months and where the new type of exciting 'forward thinking' music is simply regular music with not much innovation compositionally just soaked to shit in lofi or other kinds of effects (sparkly fast arpegios, wow and flutter tape delays up the ying yang, crackly fake vinyl record reecordings, fake tape hiss) oh and the Wire, please stop feeding into these hype machines. I liked your magazine lot better when you had significantly different content from Fact mag and Pitchfork.

 

-Modern videogames banality: start putting creativity & innovation at the forefront of console game design, round up all the people who make first person shooters and have them fight in real combat, then bring them back and see if they still want to make banal FPS war games. I think the last interesting games i saw were Little Big Planet, Mirrors Edge and the Katamari series.

 

-CGI ruiners in most tent pole or big movies: stop using CGI or any type of modern digital special effect in movies when it takes you out of the movie. Someone needs to take a cue from Fincher's Zodiac techniques and stop pulling tools from the George Lucas school.

 

-I love my president fashion statements: please no more T-shirts of Obama on young people, what would you guys think of people walking around with non ironic Palin Or George Bush tshirts?

 

-How many more Lil Wayne remixes do we need to hear? stop remixing top 10 hip hop songs and marketing them to the electronic music community, at least remix a hip hop song we have all forgotten or that deserves to be exposed to more people.

- Being nostalgic about the console you used to waste your time on when you were 8

- The '80s

- Ironic facial hair

- "Acid"

- Believing things are true because it would be cool if they were, not because you have any reason to

Long answer: Creating large discs of non-biodegradable, non-recyclable, toxic polyvinyl-chloride so that a bunch of faux audiophiles can pretend that having a record pressed from digital productions/masters actually sounds better because of the inclusion of surface noise and loss of frequency range, only to have them sound progressively worse with each play until 10 years later it's rendered unlistenable. There's nothing more wasteful and excessive in the realm of physical media than vinyl. The only reason it's still clinging to life by a thread is elitist hipsters who want to show off that they have one of 400 pressings of some release, only to later listen to the digital version on their iPods on the bus.

indie emo shit
