New commune college! I'm the host!
Today we tackle "Classic Rock" as a concept and its associated issues. While the rock music of the past is often amazing, the way it has been curated into radio stations and playlists over the years is exclusionary by design, made to coddle baby boomers
I walk @Proxy and @hyperlink through this mess and, hopefully, present a better way forward toward the end. give it a listen! https://soundcloud.com/hyperlinkfromsnouts/episode-43-classic-rock-w-keeble
@Proxy @hyperlink at the end of this ep I try and answer the question "what COULD classic rock be?"
To do this, i made an example playlist on spotify and youtube of my idea of what classic rock stations could play. Works on both shuffle and in order. Give it a sample, particuarly if you like classic rock music and want something less white, less male, and less purposefully apolitical!
