It's not about "hype". Who gives a fuck about hype. I don't care if Kid 606
gets thrown on the cover of 'Time' bloody magazine. Who cares. My point was
that he is making some interesting stuff, and if some of his tracks are duds
then that is quite to be expected from somebody willing to go out on a limb
with his music. If you or anybody else thinks he sucks, then just don't listen
to him. It's that simple. The curious or clueless are none of my concern
either. If they listen to music because of hype then that is their own sorry
affair isn't it. Fuck the media, the clueless, the hysterical whiners, and let
the music 'speak' for itself. I for one trust only my ears, never a single
review positive or negative. They are really quite useless, like the Koran
translated into Swedish - you never really 'hear' it.
Cheers,
Christophe
P.S. I don't think your last sentence makes any sense, or is it just me?
