I know we joke about whites people not having culture but look y’all *had culture* and then my chemical romance stopped making music and ever since 2007 y’all been going downhill
@chosafine white people talk about the AI apocalypse but they never wanna hear about why their favorite EDM is a bad look
@amphetamine i recently learned how modern EDM developed, and yeah, there's some thick black / gay history, entwined with the AIDS crisis, crack crisis etc…
but in Europe, when we imported the beats (pretty late, back then) we did so entirely decoupled of their (hi)story
@amphetamine one thing i didn't even almost agree with was that you need to be fucked up on drugs to listen to that kind of music >_>
(i have badly formulated theories about the (cultural) importance of lyrics vs beats / dance)
@amphetamine @chosafine hnnnnnnnngh
