    It’s sad how we will never see anything like this again really. Nothing is organic anymore in the music industry.

    It’s all social media based, you need 1000+ followers these days to even get a gig or noticed and give a chance in the industry, producers and DJs are spending more time pushing their socials than doing random raw/organic performances .

    The Beatles rocking out the cabin club,

    Daft Punk playing live at Even Further.

    MGMT jamming away at a campus

    Those days are gone. 😭

    History has a way of repeating itself. There is already quite a backlash to the over-compressed over-produced autotuned gloss that saturates the industry; and once AI slop starts to infiltrate there will be a lot of love awaiting raw and stripped-back songs with meaning again

    I like lots of genres, and I’m a big fan of EDM…but I sure don’t feel satisfied after watching artists like skrillex or kiasmos headbanging away like they are performing, while literally pressing play and twiddling some knobs. It’s disconnected and boring af

    There is hope yet friend

    Fully agree here with you .

    Also into a lot of genres etc, but mainly electronic.

    Also agree with the skilled comment also. Give me someone like Rex The Dog playing his synths live over any of the EDM that’s droned out .

    25 points Gabe-Ruth8

    This maybe the earliest version of a song that has gone on to have over 200 million streams on YouTube. The released version is a bit different with a much better production value, so people like to see these guys performing before they “got big”.

    MGMT's "Kids" is pretty famous, yeah. Charted well in multiple countries, got a Grammy nomination, ended up on a lot of popular lists for best songs of the year ('08) or the decade ('00s), got a bunch of airplay.

    Oh, sorry. The typical Reddit user is mid-20s to mid-30s and currently living in a country where the song did well. It's an easy hit of nostalgia.
