In this week’s episode, Martin and Billy talk about music tech and internet culture — from K-pop production as a “craft flex”, to the current state of AI video and why it still gets the basics wrong. They also dig into a list of “albums that tarnished an artist’s legacy”, and end up on a bigger question: why album sequencing matters, why shuffle shouldn’t be the default, and what it says when tech platforms treat records like randomised content.
In recommended listening, they cover Sun Kil Moon’s Tiny Cities - an unexpectedly divisive pick that turns out to be a Modest Mouse covers album. They discuss why a few tracks land, why the album as a whole feels flat for them. Recommended listening for you or just worth cherry-picking?
