Heya Pseu and hookees.
Avatar 🎃 Tue. 10/24/17 12:20pm Jeff:

Fascinating. That horribly-overcompressed Beck tune's mastering doesn't sound as obviously bad by comparison with, well, everything else when it and the songs around it have all made the trip through the colon of WFMU's broadcast chain.
Avatar Swag For Life Member Tue. 10/24/17 12:21pm BronwynB:

holy crap its buffy!!!

hey, the musical episode of buffy. i still like bunnies.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 🎃 Tue. 10/24/17 12:23pm Kat in Chicago:

That Beck is new, right? It sounded so calculated and so irresistible at the same damn time.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 🎃 Tue. 10/24/17 12:24pm Kat in Chicago:

I haven't paid attention to him in years.
Avatar 🎃 Tue. 10/24/17 12:25pm Jeff:

All of a sudden, Buffy is surfing the zeitgeist. This is the third Buffy cultural reappearance I've seen pop up in the last week or so.

I keep telling people, "Buffy's okay I guess, but have you watched Veronica Mars recently?"
Avatar 🎃 Tue. 10/24/17 12:26pm Jeff:

Yeah, that Beck is from his recent album "Colors".
  Tue. 10/24/17 12:26pm table_for_one:

that seekers track was great
Avatar Tue. 10/24/17 12:27pm glenn:

beck's website is pretty good, there's a section where he gets together with friends and they basically play all the songs on some of his favourite records. one of them is oar. it's really good.

I don't know who's worse: Pandering, past-his-prime Beck or pandering, past-his prime, Liam!

i'd have to vote liam.
Avatar Tue. 10/24/17 12:32pm Pseu Braun:

This show's all about pop - pandering or not. Anyway, we are in real need during our October fundraiser. I'll pander, whatever - We rilly rilly need you to chip in, folks. Click on the playlist dog and cow banner. Help get us into the BLACK!

I wasn't complaining about the Beck tune at all :)

I haven't checked out the new Beck record, however I am not really getting into the Courtney Barnett/Kurt Vile record that everyone seems to love. And it's not because of Courtney.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 🎃 Tue. 10/24/17 12:49pm Krys O.:

Aw, Bryan MacLean was such a talented writer and singer.
  Tue. 10/24/17 12:50pm Lawrence Stevenson:

"I love Beck" and "Beck just made a crappy record" are not mutually exclusive statements.
Avatar Tue. 10/24/17 12:50pm SmokinJ:

Wonderbar!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 🎃 Tue. 10/24/17 12:50pm Kat in Chicago:

I do find it hilarious that alternative-indie-whatever has given us another Kurt and Courtney. I like the songs from the record that I've heard.
Avatar 🎃 Tue. 10/24/17 12:50pm Jeff:

...and I wouldn't care enough to whine so annoyingly about the new Beck release if I didn't actually usually like most stuff the adorable little munchkin puts out.
Avatar Tue. 10/24/17 12:52pm Cheri Pi:

Bryan MacLean was a neat person!
Avatar 🎃 Tue. 10/24/17 12:52pm Jeff:

Yeah, I really have been liking the way Courtney Barnett's voice and that of whoever that boy is sound together.
  Tue. 10/24/17 12:53pm Will:

How can one malign Beck when one adores a song like "Come On Down to My Boat Baby"? Just askin.

Liking The Factotums take on Dylan. My favorite cover of ASM is still by Jason and the Scorchers.

Holy hell, I don't think I heard this song since I was a teenager
