The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.
The only contemporary style of music I really listen to is rap and pop, and I think it’s “time sound” is already very apparent. Spacey synth, “Migos flow,” etc.
Yeah, this makes a lot of sense. Come to think of it, there have been quite a few occasions (nu-metal and pop punk being just two examples that jump to mind) where the recurring tropes of a genre are readily apparent at the time, but I never think of them in those terms until well after the fact -- perhaps because it's impossible for something to remind you of a time that is currently happening? I don't know.

It's by no means a hard and fast rule but I think I can find contemporary art or music more misleading (in that it sounds good to me at the time and terrible in hindsight) in a way that never or rarely happens with something from an earlier period.
I would probably agree with this, percentagewise, though I have never thought of it in this way before. An obvious exception being my Doors phase of 1998-99.
Ever since liebzz did his journey, I have really been enjoying the Doors again. This take feels a bit dated in hindsight

Glad to be of service. I need to do another journey and soon. Hopefully something that isn’t too dated (had to).
