Mega Cringe

In 2007 Chris said
"Kitsune and Ed Banger are the new Modular with Paris being the new Sydney, with attractive hipster girls and skinny white boys crunking to Busy P. and Uffie instead of The Presets and Klaxons as Modular will be come so passe apparently.


2007 is the year everyone will become a DJ, meaning it will no longer be cool to be a DJ, therefore making it cool to be a DJ once more. Electro will become even more mainstream with more ubiquitous Austereo play...."
So here we are in 2010 and while Uffie is one of the most irrelevant and one dimensional hacks on the planet, it's clear she's not the only one who can't take a hint. Muscles has obviously been more concerned with legal action than producing good music. If the rest of the EP sounds anything like this, he'll headline Big Day Out (because by the look of the line up it doesn't have one yet).

Seems strange being quoted for something I said so long ago. I think it just serves to show how faddish this music was and how irrelevant these two acts now are.

This music was of its time. Even at the time, we knew that the whole jig was only fleeting. That jig is now well and truly up.
