This was a fun one Myke. Any chance you'd consider putting out cortex eps more frequently with this series? Would love to get a two eps or more a month if that's not too taxing.

I don't wanna be rude, but this just isn't true. Vinyl is extremely limited for dynamic range, frequency and signal to noise compared with digital.
I think it's important to say, as there's a lot of "rich guy mysticism" with vinyl that's more about it's collectibility than about real metrics.

I truly think the real benefit of vinyl is having a 12x12 inch cardboard print of album art.

We're getting early reports that a "all time banger" is developing, but musicologists are saying to remain calm and that it may simply be a high velocity "bop".

Extremely cool project that lead to Some of the folks who developed Mosaic later went on to form Netscape (which of course became the code base for Firefox) archive.org/details/nets..., and folks who licensed the Mosaic name later sold their product to Microsoft where it became Internet Explorer!

my hottest take is that all music is good given enough time and the correct context.
Unless it’s made by someone who absolutely sucks shit. Then it’s possible it sucks.

Yeah, I agree they play into each other. but if you can stomach me being a nitpicking bastard, I'd say that executive ideology was probably more about loving having a ton of cash on-hand rather than wanting to glorify pop music for it's own sake.

Y'know, unsolicited take, but I wouldn't blame poptimism so much as the major labels reconsolidating control, and taking an extremely conservative/risk averse approach to artist investment. The collapse of finances in regional music scenes has been brutal to experience.

This is indicative of a big problem with all art in the information age, it's become really easy to stick metrics on abstract goods and pretend that numbers mean something is "better"
