Sneak preview for you: the two current 'attractions' broadly consist in:-
(i) lamentations that the list is no longer about discussion of music but
more a channel through which subscribers attempt to foist their unwanted
music on the assembled collector-casualties (i.e. this latter a trait of
'ambient people', allegedly).
(ii) protestations over the undeserved (allegedly) high status of the
Boreds from Canada (sic) (as compared with acts such as Throbbing Gristle,
Black Dice, Wolf Eyes - y'know all those eminently comparable acts), with
backlash followed by backlash-backlash, ending in requests to spread
positivity, post top 20 favourite musician lists, shut the f**k up/stop
shutting the f**k up etc.
(I'm using shorthand rather than 'fly-on-the-wall' reportage methodology).
Hope this helps.
