the weird frontier between pop and avantgarde
are these guys the saviors of music?
The weird frontier between pop and avantgarde
noh
this meme dies, you need to make it more controversial to keep it alive
yeah
or we could just talk about more music
youtube.com
this meme is so fucking old now that it's become a weird kind of reality
how many, if any, of the featured artists here have actually had an impact on current pop music? I heard Arca did some production for someone (Kanye?), other than that though nothing elss immediately springs to mind.
Aren't these guys a secret part of this meme already?
>how many, if any, of the featured artists here have actually had an impact on current pop music?
all of them
pop music isn't just what you hear on the radio

Yes, it is actually. If your mom hasn't unknowingly listened to OPN while shopping for groceries or piecing out a sweet hoodie for you over at Pac Sun™ at some point in her life then OPN isn't pop.
*picking out
the OP clearly refers to pop as in popular music
Arca produced
- Fka Twigs
- Kanye West
- Dean Blunt
- Bjork
- Frank Ocean
- Kelela
Hes the actual goat and the new Timbaland. The most influential producer of the 2010. Critically acclaimmed and commercially succesful.

how is hw shit?

Hype williams sounds like some incredibly generic lo-fi pop on some of their albums and like Inga's solos on the others. I like neither of those, but that's just my opinion my man
got any good lo-fi pop i can listen too?
i like their digital stuff but hw is perfect for studying
Timbaland is a bad comparison. None of those artists except for frank & kanye are as commercially successful or mainstream as the artists Timbaland was working on.
He's obviously on the track, though, if that's what he really wants (It doesn't seem like he does?). He needs to start working with Beyonce/Rihanna/etc if he's going to be considered the "new timbaland"
>He needs to start working with Beyonce/Rihanna/
nah thats not gonna happen the HBA crew he runs with hates them and accuses them of ripping their shit off
Never said it was going to happen. We're on the discussion of him becoming the next timbaland. Which he won't be unless he moves towards those artists.
not the guy you're replying to but surely he would need to work with breakthrough artists, rather than 15-years ago artists
nah I don't he'll be the next timbaland
I feel like those pc music fags want that spot since they beg pop stars to work with them
>nah I don't he'll be the next timbaland
Exactly my point in the first place. Moving on...
Arca is working on the next Charli XCX album.
Isn't Arca trying to be a pop artist himself? kinda looks like recently
reverie when?
except arca actually is a transgressive faggot, and doesn't just dress like one (like some glam-appropriating female stars)
True. I was thinking more about the positioning of him lit up on stage surrounded by fans taking pics, not the outfit.
BOOTS is terrible and Aquaria or whatever its called was a massive disappointment, i think he bought his way in and didnt just "get lucky" working for , fuck you
Beyonce is wearing HBA on the Lemonade cover
ah, yeah he's not by his bloop machines or nothin.
Is Arca planning to start singing actual lyrics? Has anyone heard him sing?
he sings doing his live shows
Yes hes been putting his vocals in his music for 7 years
legit spooky
goat (no homo)
goat (homo)
check Stretch 1/2
he does it all the time
his releases as Nuuro have lots of singing
i don't think he actually uses any machines besides a laptop and a midi controller?
rekt by the #arcahive
what a fucking faggot lmao
what the name of their respective brand of bleeps tho??
>vaporware / grime / ambient / Wonky
right?
Young Arca singing at 18yo in 2008 youtu.be
makes me think
OPN has worked with HudMo, Anohni, FKA twigs and Autre Ne Veut.
Maybe he does have some kind of influence by association.
Not the other two tho.
...Source? Wasn't that Sophie?
Where's Spencer Clark?
fucking idiot hit himself in the face for the sake of performance art
its make up dude.
what a phooooney!!
swap blunt and blake, remove boots
>BOOTS
OH SHIT ITS THAT NIGGA DEAN
wow, incredibly sexist. Hope pitchfork doesnt se this.
arca is finished desu
