has this not always been the case

do people criticise him for that? i thought his music is very much nostalgic but not overreliant

Musically? No.

Paying homage, evolving existing styles, and/or referencing past work is different from recycling old sounds and leaning on nostalgia to cover up the fact that an artist doesn't have anything unique or innovative to offer of their own.

peak yt twitter yap sesh

music peaked with this i'm afraid

people have criticized the uk wave (esp director LAUZZA) for being entirely reliant on mid-2000's aesthetics

Oi!!!

Are you the same soapmanwun who posted with that username on ktt1 or are you someone different. I’ve always wondered

I think the problem mostly stems from the fact that everyone seems to be drawing from the SAME nostalgia.

Nobody making Charlie Chaplin era bangers

Yes. A lot of our favorite songs interpolate or sample songs from their predecessors. I think the difference is the way you creatively flip it (or lack thereof)

yeah i agree with this

Bullshit cope. Boomers and Gen X produced some of the best music while living under the constant threat of nuclear annihilation.

His music and aesthetic is literally early 2000s aesthetic…

This guy dropped aoty

I mean a lot of the most innovative music was inspired by the past and often times uses the past as reference

The backbone of hip hop is sampling records (wether they be old or new) and making something new out of it

Older composers used to hate on hip hop and say it was unoriginal because they were just taking music that wasn't theirs and not making the songs from scratch

But just a different perspective

on god

dunno who that is but he's prolly rite

The idea that the world is than ever before is purely social media driven delusion
The only part that is truly like anything we ever seen before is global warming
