As the enabler of the overclass’s push for the Total State, I can’t help feeling that this celebration of the digital realm’s crushing and liquefying of all material differentiation into a homogenous goo is a rather on-the-nose confirmation of Auron MacIntyre’s thesis.

Out Thursday

Every time Auron MacIntyre weighs in to frame an issue, within 24 hours my timeline is full of people, including prominent ones, repeating him. That’s no bust on them, but shows how effective Auron is… sets the tone more than most prime time cable news hosts.

Drew Barrymore interviews everybody like they have coke and she doesn’t have any money.

'What DREAM MACHINES gives you, alongside its deluge of new interviews and telling research, is a precise X-ray of modern music up to the 1990s, revealing the wires that held much of it together.'
