Episode Synopsis
It's part 1 of my conversation with guest Jay Breitling as we discuss our favorite music of the past decade. Show notes: - Recorded at CompCon world HQ - We did this 10 years ago, a little differently - Ten years is a long time inside a car - The shift from downloads to streaming - Not everything is available from streaming services - iTunes didn't die, it was just split up - Music can also disappear from streaming services - Original MP3 players only held a handful of songs - The kids like the vinyl - Concerts business has evolved: Bands are playing smaller venues - Who the hell are the Chainsmokers? - Bands we like can't fill hockey rinks - Nobody's making money off albums - It's all merch - Vinyl and box sets are big bucks - Lots of reissues - Albums that didn't make our top 10 - Breitling: Releases from Lubec, Funeral Advantage, Hop Along, LCD Soundsystem - Kumar: LCD Soundsystem, Grinderman, Arcade Fire, Wild Flag, Sloan, Destroyer, METZ, Savages, Speedy Ortiz, Kurt Vile, Ex Hex, Protomartyr, Run the Jewels, Ty Segall, The War on Drugs, Jeff Rosenstock, IDLES, Fucked Up, Sharon Van Etten, PUP - To be continued: On to the top 10 Completely Conspicuous is available through the iTunes podcast directory.
