Don’t buy the hype? But how will I discover new music?
So I ran across this article the other day and found it quite interesting, plus it quotes my favorite DJ (John Richards) and how KEXP plays into the whole hype machine (but they aren't the main ones...damn bloggers!). I feel a bit like Dorothy discovering the Wizard is just a man behind the curtain. Okay it isn’t that devastating, but it certainly makes me think.

The article also mentions Pitchfork, which made me think of this hilarious article from The Onion:

Oh Onion! How do you keep doing it?
