Editor's Note:
"Retromania" Simona Reynoldsa, kultowego brytyjskiego dziennikarza muzycznego, w świetnym przekładzie Filipa Łobodzińskiego, wreszcie dostępna!Jaka jest historia "empetrójki"?Czy różnica między kompaktem a mp3 jest taka sama jak między sokiem pomarańczowym "naturalnym" a sokiem na bazie rozcieńczonego koncentratu?Czy winyl byłby tu w takim razie sokiem świeżo wyciśniętym z ekologicznych pomarańczy?I jak się ma do tego "Cosmogramma" Flying Lotusa? (A dlaczego nie wziąć wszystkich tych patentów z przeszłości, dodać dzisiejsze, najnowsze technologie i wysmażyć najbardziej popaprany szajs, jaki jest do pomyślenia?!)Czy zdobycz oznacza zarazem utratę?Dlaczego internet drąży dziury w teraźniejszości? Co spogląda przez te dziury?Dlaczego staliśmy się ludźmi- naleśnikami?Czym różni się nuda teraz od nudy kiedyś? I z czego się bierze?Czy kultura jest w stanie przetrwać w warunkach braku ograniczeń?Dlaczego cierpisz przez niczym nieograniczony dostęp?Czy sieć zdezintegruje nasze rodziny?Czy za 2000 lat ludzie będą traktować YouTube'a tak, jak my traktujemy hieroglify staroegipskie?Jesteś konsumentem- wirtuozem czy kolejnym, typowym zombie z galerii handlowej? A może jesteś konsumentem- antykoneserem?Jak się mają Pokemony do winyli?Co stanie się z twoją kolekcją płyt jak już umrzesz i dlaczego tyle płyt jest niekolekcjonowalnych?Jak nazwać neurologiczną drżączkę człowieka podłączonego do Sieci?Dlaczego iPod robi z nas biedaków?Czy darmowa muzyka stała się bezwartościowa?Czy mniej oznacza więcej?Dlaczego Nick Cave skowerował Elvisa Presleya i jakie miejsce w tej historii zajmuje martwo urodzony brat- bliźniak Króla z Memphis?Czym jest kapela portalowa i dlaczego akurat Sonic Youth są jej najlepszym przykładem?Jak, po zawyżonych cenach, sprzedać stare winyle z Italo- Disco? Jak zrobić z nich megarzadkie skarby?Skąd wzięły się boksy wielopłytowe i czy podnoszą zawartą w nich muzykę do rangi pomnika czy raczej nagrobka?Jak się ma "Człowiek z wysokiego zamku" Philipa K. Dicka do przedwojennych płyt szelakowych na 78 obrotów?Czego słuchają japońscy hipsterzy?Chciałbyś posłuchać futurystycznego szanty za syntezatorach i dlaczego Lady GaGa mogłaby nagrać płytę z taką zawartością?Dlaczego w swingującym Londynie lat 60-tych moda przyszłości opierała się na modzie z przeszłości i czy mogło to być jednym z powodów ataku bombowego?Czym różni się vintage od retro?A jak szybko przyspieszyć zejście po LSD?Co ma wpólnego tradycyjny jazz z kulturą rave?Jaka jest historia brytyjskich modsów?Kiedy i gdzie bywalcy klubów z muzyką northern soul rozprawiali nad zaletami kody, kety i mety, futra, siary i batata?Czym jest oldschool? Jesteś w stanie zatrzymać czas?Czemu zawdzięczamy odrodzenie się niezależnych wytwórni płytowych?Czy punk rock naprawdę był rewolucyjny?Dlaczego John Lennon, po latach intensywnego zażywania LSD i komponowania dość surrealistycznych utworów ("Jestem morsem") wrócił do rock 'n' rolla w jego pierwotnej formie?Z czego wzięło się psychobilly? Czy rock 'n' roll może zamienić się w ducha?Czy samplowanie jest aktem zniewolenia? Czy sample to zarazem duchy i niewolnicy?Czy didżeje naruszają nietykalność winylowych trupów i czy można porównać ich do handlarzy ludzkimi organami?Czym jest pop hipnagogiczny?Co ma wspólnego new age z krautrockiem?Dlaczego kaseta magnetofonowa jest formatem widmontologicznym?Czy mash-up to bękarci pop? Czy może raczej rodzaj wymiotu?Czy istnieje nostalgia za przyszłością?Czy wkroczyliśmy w epokę kompletnie pozbawioną wyobraźni?Czy wykiwano nas z naszej przyszłości?I jak się ma do tego wszystkiego architektura brutalistyczna?Czy przyszłość w popkulturze istnieje? Czy powiesz jeszcze kiedyś:"jeszcze w życiu nie słyszałem czegoś takiego"?
