if you think this isn't political.
i mean, get real.
but, i'm not really particularly upset. obviously, i think i'm presenting a valid opinion, and it should be contemplated. but, am i having a hard time understanding why this is a poor product for google to sell to advertisers? i'm not.
the reason i'm not yelling and screaming - and others might - is that i understand what the platform is. i understand that i'm the product. and, i don't begrudge the platform for rejecting the content.
it's still available for viewing. that's more important to me. and, maybe if enough people watch the video and think about it then there will come a day when it will no longer be considered poor content to sell to advertisers.
but, you want proof i'm edgy? actually edgy? i can't monetize a substantial number of these. and, i'm not going to pretend i'm confused about it.

again...
given the historical circumstances regarding the current state of electronic music, i do not want to come down on this too hard. but, i have to be blunt. it's great that some of the bigger promoters are trying to look around to find some kind of artistic counterweight to the blunt artlessness of modern dance music. but, if what you're presenting is this? then, i won't blame the kids for walking out and muttering "this is boring" under their breath. because, they're right.
this has a time and place. namely at 4:00 am, when you're winding down. or, if you insist on billing it, in a hippie/psych pit.
it doesn't make sense to bill this as a headliner in a dance club. and, it's dangerous. because you're not really opening anything up. rather, you're erecting a brick wall.
