Some blogger bro vlogs about chillwave.


In an effort to share good music, solid opinions, and take down pitchfork media dot org, some bro began to vlog about relevant alternative music. The vlog bro has branded himself as 'the internet's busiest music nerd.'

In the selected clips from his youtube channel, he reviews several different chill wave tracks and albums.

@torbro y moi, He is a pretty good critic. I wish he would review Lord Mortality though. That guy cracks me up!

@Anthony F.,

So meta...I dug your reviews before you blow up. Don't forget the lil people.

In the Neon Indian video, he says "Adam Palomo." It is actually "Alan".

@Jake Hobbs, I have my dyslexic moments, and I apologize.

Jake Hobbs's picture

@Anthony F., You are forgiven. I have dyslexic moments too.

@Anthony F., I have watched many of your vids Anthony, and the content is great but there's always been something that seemed off... I think you should do your reviews sitting at a desk or table. Try it! it could be good.

he's obnoxious.
why would i watch a stranger talk about songs i've already heard?
what can he do besides maybe to influence how i feel about a familiar song?
why wouldn't i want to keep my feelings about a song personal?

This sucks. Sorry. Shut up and play the music.

he'd be cute if he didn't remind me of this douchebag from high school and if he didn't enjoy chillwave music

So, chillwave music=lo-fi indie pop that contains Nintendo-sounding keyboard parts? Hitting late 80's/early 90's nostalgia notes, that's cool. Can't wait for a popular chillwave song to reference those Nickolodeon shows we all dug back then.

@John, also thought that didn't sound very clever. i think chillwave is a natural evolution of the compressor duck popularized by the bngrz+daft punk sampling+shoegaze sound landscapes and tempo. not said it doesn't have anything to do with nostalgia, but i don't see how it relates to 8-bit music or stuff like that.

***immediately runs to his keyboards and synthesizers to produce nintendo sounding keyboard parts with references to old Nickelodeon shows***

this bro has a radio show on NPR, too - really sounds out of place in between listening to bitches talk about cheese. also has a blog theneedledrop.com

OhNoOhMy's picture

I rather just read reviews than hear someone who I dont relate with or I dont find attractive.

i need next level shit.

Zoz's picture

There is definately room for more bands like this,

singular's picture

I love this guy!!

I watched his review of HEALTH 'Die Slow' and he was so on the ball.
At first I thought he was a bit of a douche, but now I adore him!

THE NEEDLE DROP.

JOHN's picture

This is seems unnecessarily bitchy, even for HRO. I'm not sure what's so annoying/offensive about a dude sharing his thoughts about the records he receives. The Needle Drop as a target of satire seems small enough to make HRO look like kind of an asshole.

If you wanted to take on someone bigger in the blogging world, then there are plenty of other irritating folks out there that probably deserve to be taken down a peg. Not Anthony Fantano, though. Unless, of course, you're spooked that Fantano's sincerity stands in stark opposition to HRO's entire enterprise.

this bro looks like he was the captain of the wrestling in high school that bought an animal collective album in college and now feels his face/style and opinions are a blogwave sensation. the close up torso views will maybe land an am appy sponsorship deal to promote an independent track critic.
take your bad opinions to the top, bro.

sumsun's picture

this dude needs to take off his fake glasses and die. say what everyone knows, and get the facts wrong, no more cheat sheets on sticky notes. fuck you. bad opinions 4 reel.

I admire their endless support, and endless believing .
If since young age they receive good influence by person they admire, they would have became great people with great vision about work and determination. Even if this person only an entertainer.
I think it's because they believe that hardwork will be payed off. And this belief come from their Idol, Rain. How many entertainers can cast this strong belief in our world today?

As your ideas are very innovative, I might that people who read them will try to steal them. But, don't care, because, as Howard Aiken told “Don't worry about people stealing your ideas. If your ideas are any good, you'll have to ram them down people's throats.”
