This week's musical category is….. Damn. (Note to self, never finish a sentence you can't finish). We love talking about big, bad classic rock, pop and indie records, but we've really taken a sharp turn into left field here and "quirky" just ain't gonna cover it. Ariel Pink: one of the biggest names in home recording in the last ten years. Part of the beauty is that ten years ago that last sentence wouldn't have made any sense. And much like this man's music, that's kind of the idea. Is it Retro-dream pop? Chillwave? Bedroom music alterna-genius or just bonkers? Spoiler here, if he were just bonkers, we wouldn't spend an evening talking about the origins of this intriguing, kaleidoscopic creature, his history, the making of this, his most celebrated work, and a recap of his apparent ascent into modern madness; equally despised, loved, misunderstood and worshiped by a generation of bedroom dwelling, aspiring lo-fi laptop Lennons. In this episode we drop super de jour terms like "hypnagogic pop" and try and separate the strange from the sublime, from the kitchen sink. |
