Oh! One more, a bit more recent: 80s synth, like The Midnight. (My wife's listening to them right now.)

Nice! So idea: music genre revivals, like how bluegrass came back for a bit when 'O, Brother...' came out, or Bublé and the big band / crooner style had a bit, or how Caro Emerald is doing swing in a new way. Hooverphonic comes to mind. These revivals almost seem fad-ish to me, but I like them.

@12tone.nebula.tv SUCCINCT! Also, I have a cool idea for a ghost notes discussion. Should I suggest it here? Patreon? Where do you look?

You and @polyphonic.nebula.tv both seem to be going through it. I understand the landscape is changing. Don't lose yourself in it. I love your channels for the art you two make. (The podcast is nice, too.)

Visual studio open on the other monitor with a problem you were actively trying to solve before the meeting started.

Dude, you got where you are BECAUSE you tried new things and learned in the public. It shows the humanity. We don't want a know-all expert. We want people who research and apply what they know to new concepts. Keep on keepin' on, man. You're alright.

no word has been more abused than "engineer". you're not a "prompt engineering", you're reaching for any prestige and credibility you can find as you pull the lever on your plagiarism gacha machine

An example would be the Luke Combs cover of Fast Car. While it's a fine example of someone playing another person's song, I don't think (at least not for me) that it adds anything new. Moreover, it pulls attention away from Chapman's original by overshadowing it and making people think he wrote it

@12tone.nebula.tv#ghostnotes episode about covers, and the conclusion you came to was that a good cover brings something new to the song. While I agree 💯 with this, I'd like to add that it must also not detract from the original.
