the destiny of ‘hyperpop’ to be absorbed into a mainstream aesthetic haze was built into its DNA. when dismantled it’s individual components were never resilient enough to withstand easy ahistorical assimilation into the corporate cloud.

who else has a very active mental life but weak verbal life? I’m always left feeling misunderstood or that i didn’t convey my true intentions clearly enough. that’s partly why music has always been so attractive

it totally altered my worldview when i realized that every sound is a calculable frequency pattern - that the most distinct human voice or a full orchestra is just a complex version of a single sine wave and with a powerful enough machine can be perfectly replicated

this is a critique of corporatism not the art form. i think music should be free to exist on its own terms, but corporatism commodifies every aspect of it, so we start seeing music mostly in relation to its monetary prospects, how much can this make etc

when I worked 9 to 5 type jobs it wasn’t so much the labor that was miserable, it was the loss of control over many aspects of life. having a boss/worker hierarchy, under the fear of punishment and surveillance, that whole workplace dynamic imo is psychologically damaging
