i think these things were definitely annual at some point, but around 2007 they became monthly. and will probably be weekly by the end of '09.
― some dude, Sunday, 21 June 2009 05:26 (fifteen years ago) link
lotsa blogs missed the boat with the original "pizza hut/taco bell" so they're furiously trying to pass off like 20 remixes as "superior" versions. wtf internet.

it sounds like the same song anyway tbh
― swag serf (J0rdan S.), Sunday, 21 June 2009 05:33 (fifteen years ago) link
no doubt Sagat was a novelty hit but i dunno doesn't seem indie fuxxor enough for this thread. shit got played on MTV and rap stations.
― some dude, Sunday, 21 June 2009 05:36 (fifteen years ago) link
for all i know Sagat still lives in Baltimore, btw, it's one of my on-again-off-again goals to track him down for an interview one of these days.
― some dude, Sunday, 21 June 2009 05:37 (fifteen years ago) link
xpostyeah, but alternageeks at the time quasi-irono-referenced it in the same way, so I think it applies, even if only as a forebear

indie fuxxors were a different breed in 1994
― some of the greatest artists ever are bland (los blue jeans), Sunday, 21 June 2009 05:38 (fifteen years ago) link
yeah but i dunno..i heard "lucas with the lid off" and "cantaloop" on alt-rock stations at the time, not so much "funk dat," so it feels like somehow of a different breed.
― some dude, Sunday, 21 June 2009 05:40 (fifteen years ago) link
this is not about radio play, it's about embracing a novelty electronic song in a slightly ironic wacky way, which applies to both Doc Martin hipsters in 94 re sagat and keffiyah kidz in 09 re wacky fast food song
― Whiney G. Weingarten, Sunday, 21 June 2009 05:42 (fifteen years ago) link
i don't know if you're 15 or something like the rest of the autogoon cru or whatever, but flannel dudes at my school were def doing the "maaaan... funk dat" thing for about 6 weeks.
― Whiney G. Weingarten, Sunday, 21 June 2009 05:43 (fifteen years ago) link
what about "genie in a bottle" + "hard to explain" - certainly that was "a novelty electronic song" that was embraced in a "slightly ironic wacky way"

internet people def know about this esp since it got reviewed on pitchfork but if people at your college were going around referencing "funk dat" for 6 months i can guarantee that people at my college are not sending me texts that say "i'm at the pizza hut!!" and we went to comparable colleges size/city wise

tbh the annual indie fuxxor electornic novelty hit of 09 is that 3OH!3 song

3OH3 is mainstream fuxxor iirc
― Whiney G. Weingarten, Sunday, 21 June 2009 05:54 (fifteen years ago) link
i mean people who are going to women/men/boys/girls warehouse shows probably aren't fucking with 3OH!3 but people who are vampire weekend/decemberists/broken social scene "mainstream" indie fuck with that song as far as i can tell

i thought only Bamboozle Fest Fall Out Bros with the big text T-shirts listened to that shit, and no one who actually listened to, like, any indie band that stereogum would cover

im basing that post on small anecdotal evidence but it's not thaaaaat far of a bridge from "discovering" justice to "liking" a 30H!3 song if you listen to stereogum bands

I was under the impression that 3ought!3 is more of a nu-hot topic band. Like maybe there are some people that like them and justice and vampire collective or whatever but they are just the people that list a bunch of new bands + Johnie Cash (sic) on their social profiles.
