thanks man 🙏🏼 also feel better soon x.com/arielrechtshai…

1 'indie' is a community that i def consider myself to be a part of —

2 80s/90s indie is the 1st music that showed me i cld make music & be a part of a community

3 to the extent that the post was something more than a jokey riff on ridiculous fake critical theory language mixed w migos lyrics

4 the concept of 'indie' — its past & present — is personal/important to me

i can get kinda navelgaze abt it, wringing my hands over the way the term's been co-opted by wack spotify playlists, garageband presets etc

6 c'est la vie right?

7 def wasn't trying 2 put anybody on blast—esp younger bands; so many people doing amazing shit in a super unprecedented cultural context rn

8 mitski's puberty 2 is a dense, fascinating rec

9 abt 2009. it's ironic to be nostalgic abt the alleged newness of something that happened 7 years ago!

10 feel like there's been so much mind-blowing and fresh music since then. in all diff scenes & genres

11 i get excited by innovation but at end of day, emotion is timeless & universal, and that's the core of music

11 i feel like in the context of 45, filling old traditional forms w new messages of resistance gotta be the way forward
