>In a rambling speech, Visconti said that today’s record labels were simply repeating the formulae of the past, with diminishing returns. He described mainstream pop, aimed at a teenage audience, as “a computer and a vocal that was doctored to goodness knows how much”. On the other hand, he said, there are songwriters like Sun Kil Moon, “who just wrenches you and will tear your heart out – that’s an album I can’t listen to without tears falling and my dear friend David Bowie turned me on to that album.”
Mark is probably ecstatic about this
>a white man's opinion
literally who cares
this is the same dude who assumed gira was a rapist just because he gave him a firm handshake one time
>>63378636
isn't that the same guy who said gira gave him too hard of a handshake?
whatever any good publicity is better for Mark.Laura snapes and the other faggots went at him hard on universal themes which IMO was better than Benji

>Visconti concluded that the music industry needed to be more adventurous when looking for new artists. “Look at those freaks out there, the really weird ones, because that’s what the public wants to hear,” he said.
Visconti preaching wisdom

you mean he assumed he was a sick fuck because of his handshake. To be fair, Michael's lyrics probably also made him think that.

How is that relevant at all to his opinions on the music industry?
Guess OJ doesn't know shit about football because he's a criminal
>>63378636
who, above the age of 12, doesn't already know this?
I wish Mark was more appreciated in the music industry :( too but twenty 22 years ago
It would blow my mind to see what music would have come out if Roller Coaster/Ocean Beach became very popular during the 90's

Wasn't Songs for a Blue Guitar remotely popular?
>>63378833
>Grimes?
not what I was thinking, but sure she's more talented than most of the pop artists topping charts. wish she'd try something more ambitious though.
