“…one of my frustrations has always been the meagre amount of information displayed on each artist’s page, and Pelly’s criticisms made me think this might be by design—a way of rendering the labor of music-making invisible. Except for a brief biographical sketch, sounds float largely free of context or lineage.… I’ve never heard so much music online as I have over the past few years yet felt so disconnected from its sources.”
