Not because they have a new album or anything, it's because the metric includes background music in "shorts" and I guess people keep using aphex twin
That second album really was incredible.
I make music and one of my goals is to get a song picked up by the shorts/tiktok algorithm so the streams grow exponentially. lol
Cat videos strike again. A tale as old as the internet.

Warning; really extraordinarily not safe for work or for, well, anything really
I have it saved in my music video folder.
Meanwhile: PSA reminder that Mr. James himself recommended to listen to ‘Richard D. James Album’ at 33 rpm instead of 45 at which it was released. Works with ‘Drukqs’ too. Basically more Aphex for free.
That’s really cool! I played an arrangement of To Cure a Weakling Child in indoor percussion once. Listening to the slower version sounds really cool!
Slowing down music works pretty well sometimes.
There's hope
For a Taylor Swift deep house album?

Billionaires are bad. That includes Taylor Swift. She could do so much good with her money but she doesn't.
thats because shes been pretty conservaitve as of late, i suspect always has been. hanging out with a magat grifter, trying to pretend to be like she is poor being moved to tennesee by her parents to jumpstart her career. she was quite careful about her politics until very recently.
Come to Daddy
Who?
Taylor Swift is a popular singer.
I hope that helps
For additional context, Aphex Twin is not a popular singer
For additional context Aphex Twin is a Grammy winning artist with 30+ releases and is celebrated among those who value music.
so is taylor swift
dont think she's hit 30 albums yet though
For additional context Taylor Swift is a Grammy winning artist who isn’t celebrated among those who value music.
she should be celebrated. no point in being pretentious. 1989 and red are bangers
Billionaires should be eaten, not celebrated.
You're welcome to enjoy them but for most of us she makes bland pop and country music.
