My name is James. James Del actually. I work at a place called Gawker Media, something I find myself explaining to my parents every time I see them. They'll get it one day. I don't believe in Twitter, but I do believe in Facebook and LinkedIn. There's a Myspace page out there too, but never mind that. Questions, concerns, and comments can be directed to James, At-Sign Gawker, Period Com.
I was trying to make fun of hipster band names in an email earlier, and listed Sbtrkt as a perfect case study in hipster naming conventions. I had never heard ‘em before, but after the naming diss I felt like I at least owed them a listen.
It’s weird shit, but in a “I-grew-up-playing-video-games-so-8bit-music-has-a-special-place-in-my-heart” kind of way.
