When in fact it's Mr Cursor Miner....

Just check out this list of predictions and claimed predictions from his blog of today...

For the record, I Cursor Miner have predicted many of the trends in music and culture over the past decade. I predicted the rise of the synthpop/electroclash stuff. I predicted the move towards lower tempos of dubstep, I predicted neo-rave and acid revival. I predicted the fantasy/glam/costumed up 70s bands that we seem to be seeing now. I predicted everyone making more stickers. I predicted the credit crunch. I predicted the move away from quantisation that I think is 'wonky'. I predicted helicopters. In fact I know exactly whats going on but do the masses listen and herald my albums as the workings of an inspired prophet? Do they shit.
OK, so now I'm going to set it down in timestamped bits and bytes 10 things you're going to hear about soon, so that I can blog here again in a few years and say HA. There's a lot more but I'm keeping them to myself to make huge wads of cash out of. Yes that always happens.

1: more percussion. latiny noises, shakey tribal business. more voodoo magic and shamanism mighty boosh/drums of death etc.

2: full on dance music but with really small sounds. productions been getting bigger and more punchy, pretty soon it'll go the other way, but actually you can get an awful lot of dance out of quite small noises. see latin above. LESS about bass.

3: return of the 12 bar chord sequence 1-5-1-7-5-etc . OK , I been predicting this since 98 but it's gonna happen eventually

4: halfstep drum n bass meets reggaeton....

5: the continued rise of glitchy wonked out hiphop

6: 1/4 step breakcore. like the slow beats with millions of doublebassdrums of death metal.

7: kids actually inventing 'dance' moves to 'dance' music... actually it probably won't happen but I mean why is every one so lame at dancing now?? 'Dance" music need to reunite itself with "dancing" yeah?

8: the continued demise of the age of reason and the slide into the NEW DARK AGES.

9: a physical theory based on the inability to obtain information out of a unified theory. All physics equations are based on an equivalence, something equls something else. But at a true 'singularity' this dualism is not relevant. the duality of QM/GR reflects the duality of the whole mathmatical approach.

10: More arrogant blogs from me. I seem to be turning into Michael Moorcocks Pyat you see.
