everything will be as it is now, just a little different

the sum total of data constituting cyberspace

notes from a day:

  1. “Before streaming platforms made you sign a lease with your music, there was a time when MP3s were collectibles, like bugs or baseball cards.”

    —Insufferable millienial nostalgia that I also have.

  2. sludge-y folk:
    —there's not much to recommend it, but the clumsy stumbling of the first half has been stuck in my head all day. the lyrics are a bit much, and the final two minutes spoil the first four. still, “bring down the hammer.”

  3. “I think Richard doesn’t quite understand how complex his music is compared to that made by other people. In the middle section where everything’s collapsing the BPM changes about 150 times.”
