Suicide Sundaes – stop your grinnin' and drop your linen. Every Sunday, electblake of Earmilk will bring you the weeks dirty servings, and some old favorites through a throwdown-throwback to simpler times. A time when bangers were big, remixes were bigger, the bassline bled, and we didn't care about anything as long as came in kicking and left screaming. To hell with sketchy Sunday, we want to shove another dragon down the hole.
Why the delay? Well, I've been thinking. Lately I've been reconsidering the entire feature and it's purpose here. To be frank, originally I posted this in spite of the mainstream, in spite of what other djs thought of the young and turbulent (and oft simple) electro genre. But, I never intended this to be electro only (obviously).
And as I've seen our music change, I've wanted to change with it and bring this feature along for the ride. But, it doesn't look like many of you really want new music. I've heard that (at least the squeakiest of you) want trashy clipped out electro storms that tend to not lead anywhere in particular, which is all fine and dandy. Electro hit the fan ages ago, and has now expanded as a "new" genre to the second stage markets (small towns, random countries, and young/college kids). I want to move on though. So either you're with me – or not.
It's time to playhardball, I'm sorry. Next week I'm going to kick off a new series that I hope will give a more open base for me to pontificate from, or at least one without the hardfast fools who want everything to stay the same, they won't.
Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more!
p.s. Feedback / Suggestions? Please reach out at facebook.com/electblake and drop me a message. but PLEASE don't send me full press releases about you're band (send those to press@earmilk.com) I'd like SS commentary & suggestions only. Yes, these will be considerations for me moving forward with the new rumourous feature.
