Why is it always a 2026 Thomas Bangalter looking mf that smokes me on an e-bike over the bridge

Welcoming Nabihah Iqbal with her new single, "Heaven Can Wait"
"a floaty New Wave ode to friendship, and summers spent in New York City and London. “Friends are a feeling / Joy is a place,” she sings, a warm sentiment needed in these cooling months." - @thefader

Sylvie's New Season arrives November 6th.
The Los Angeles-based artist starts anew, leading a rotating cast of collaborators through golden-hued material that suits the season. The music evokes Laurel Canyon's spirit and Nashville's songwriting tradition, all given a contemporary sheen.

"His sound, these songs, are crucial threads in music culture now as he has had a hand in crafting one of 2020s very specific sounds, a hazy dream pop where one’s head is in rumbly clouds." @1234KYLE5678 on Bullion, link below.
SV: It is funny how technology changes, but good is still good, right?
LH: Yeah, it’s just like it’s like food. I mean, you could come up with all the recipes, but the basic ingredients are still, you know, the same. So that’s where the creativity comes in, mixing them together in different ways.

Honored to be brought up in conversation between these two greats. The quote in question is below from the @domesticetch article.
BTW- The seed of that quote was planted in my mind by @nicoleginelli
feels relevant right now, so here is a clip of myself and @domesticetch discussing the art of gatekeeping, and why having less resources can be more critical to developing your own creative style
shoutout to @EdSunspot too
