I would have loved to have experienced the 60’s. The psych, garage and R&B.

Punk’s always been shit though. It was the politics, style and rebellion, remove that and it’s just really bad rock without groove or finesse.

I always thought the OG “Party all the Time” was a pisstake of a Rick James song that he gave to Eddie because he was so hot at the time they could have an easy #1 (it reached #2)

EDIT [it was a bet](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/How_Could_It_Be) lol  
_This studio album was recorded as part of fulfilling a $100,000 bet that Richard Pryor had made with Eddie Murphy that he could not sing. In the album’s liner notes, Eddie Murphy wrote the following “To Richard Pryor, my idol, with whom I have a $100,000 bet. No, motherfucker, I didn’t forget.”_

I was thinking about punk seizing the means of creation, whereas today’s EDM scene looks to be more about passive consumption.

Agree. I don’t hear any of this EDM music, don’t watch boiler room or videos from festivals and obviously don’t go to that type of parties so tbh i know nothing about it. But mainstream dancemusic was around when i was a teenager in the early to mid 90s with Thunderdome and Marushka and all that crap, isn’t EDM a modern extension of that?

> Totally this. Who are we to negate young people’s experiences? After all, although we knew about the 60’s, we didn’t let it affect how we felt about our partying

I think the difference is that with the entire history of the world available in a box in their hands, kids today (from a lot of what I’ve seen on social media) have little or no connection/knowledge of musical lineage before their birth. We all came up reading about music in the NME and Melody Maker and journo’s would often reference obvious influences when reviewing or interviewing a new band. It sparked us to track back and seek this source. I’m not sure that happens today due to the way music and media is rapidly consumed and then scrolled to the next serotonin reward.
