Did Mac DeMarco ‘auth out’ on Late Night TV?

I’m not sure why late night TV shows even have musical guests. No1 watches them, but I guess ‘dumb blogs like this one’ post about them. I think ‘musical guests’ are only ‘worth it’ if they ‘participate in a meme that goes viral.’ That’s why Jimmy Fallon gave up on indie blog buzz [via Late Night] and moved to the mainstream meme machine right after the shitty local news.

N e ways, I was watching Mac DeMarco on Conan. Feels like he may have authed out. I’m not sure. The guitars seemed to hit an auth tonal range, and his delivery seemed ‘far out.’ Mainstream Americans might just think these guys are ‘hippies’ who are ‘playing 70s music.’

I’m not sure if I’d rather take auth lessons from the Mac DeMarco guitar player who replaced the Homeshake bro when he ‘went solo.’

Or if I should take auth lessons from the bro in the Palmbonen II video. Both seem pretty pure.

Previously: WTF IS A MAC DEMARCO?

Sometimes I wonder if Homeshake is the auth Mac DeMarco [via too unscalable but hella auth]…

Can Mac DeMarco use this latenight appearance to catapult his career into the mainstream?
Does he need to ‘hobknob’ with more ‘mainstream famous ppl’ like TSwift-Haim vibes, creating more ‘social Instagram moments’ that sway the perception of youth culture?
Is Mac DeMarco a ‘treasure’ or is the vibe too light 4 u?
Do u wish he ‘got weirder’ or would that be ‘too try hard’?

“I think Conan actually liked it!”
-a scalable indie fan who wants to project approval [via late night host pretending they were ‘into it’ to make the clip more shareable]

What have u been vibing 2?


Should I feel ashamed 4 enjoying something blatantly scalable?


I find so much comfort in auth not being scalable, rationalizing my place in a microcommunity. However, it is difficult to escape the pressures/norms of mass culture. Sometimes I find myself ‘tapping my foot’ to something that may or may not be perfectly engineered 2 scale into contemporary markets.

In the video for Major Lazer / DJ Snake ft MØ, we are ‘taken 2 India’ and shown a part of the world that my Eurocentric cultural identity has never seen b4. I think this is what Diplo does, just finds ‘uncovered’ parts of the world, and ‘steals’ their sounds/bastardizes them 4 EDM purposes.

Maybe in a way, I should just focus, and fire a gun, because I just need some1 2 lean on [via dance moves]

Does MØ = Tove Lo = Lorde = Ellie Goulding [via ‘unique’ broads whose voices are just meant 4 the masses as ‘alt rock’ is redefined for ‘next generations’]?

Have ‘women’ finally ‘arrived’? [via feminism]
Are ‘women’ ‘in culture’ ‘more influential’ and ‘necessary’ than ever? [via forced feminist themes 4 the purpose of scaling]

I just want to feel ‘cultured’ by knowing there is ‘more world out there’. I want to ‘learn’ about ‘the Third World’. I want to hear their music, consume their movies [via Wes Anderson’s Bollywood tribute that ‘went over my head’]

Why

Is ‘India’ the new ‘buzzworthy’ pop foreign aesthetic?
Is ‘Japan’ over? [via AZN overload]
Why does ‘MØ’ have an ‘undefined’ in her name? [via Ø]
Is it some sort of ’empty set’-wave commentary on life?
Do u ever wish u were an EDM DJ and u could ‘ethnically cleanse’ sections of the world?
Will Syria / the Iran / ISIS-ville be the next ‘hot’ foreign aesthetic taken to ‘the American mainstream’?
What is ur fave culture that Diplo has ‘stolen’? [via going Sri Lankan-wave M.I.A.]
Are Indian women pretty chill?
Should we all just join ISIS and start focusing on killing American culture if we h8 scalability so much?

Is Indian food any good? It feels too ‘stew’-based for me, personally. I also hate Modern American cuisine, so I am not being racist/discriminatory.

Should I whip myself with a belt every time I am drawn 2 something scalable? [via auth way of life]?
