“‘Our goal is to be the best music magazine in the world, not the biggest,’ said Matt Frampton, Pitchfork’s vp of sales. ‘We want to reach a specific breed of die-hard music fans, and there aren’t 100 million of those in the U.S. We’re not interested in the pageview or SEO games; for us, it’s about reaching and really engaging a relatively small group of passionate people.’

Those words are refreshing in a digital publishing world that’s become a volume game. The name of the game for most publishers is, churn out as much content as possible, at as low a cost as possible, in order to amass huge quantities of ad impressions that are sold at bulk.

Pitchfork’s position is: That’s wrong. It’s an old-fashioned argument that lasting media brands are built by establishing a deep tie with a passionate audience. Currently, Pitchfork generates around 43 million pageviews a month, and employs around 50 staffers.”

The Royal Tenenbaums or Acts 15

Paul: I’ve always been considered an asshole for about as long as I can remember. That’s just my style. But I’d really feel blue if I didn’t think you were going to forgive me.

Peter: I don’t think you’re an asshole, Paul. I just think you’re kind of a son of a bitch.

Pau: Well, I really appreciate that.

Rap-Up reports it's an album, entitled ‘Yeezus’ coming on June 18 from Kanye West:

I assume that confirmation will be coming - at the earliest - during SNL tonight. Either on the outfit Kanye has on, or ala Daft Punk, in a commercial ad buy.

.Net and the URL were how I kept away from clicking.

Footage of one of the supposed 66 projections of Kanye’s new song “New Slaves” - the likely first or second single from whatever the hell he’s releasing on June 18.

Remember kids, tonight is Kanye’s SNL performance. If SNL traditions hold up, he’ll have his first performance sometime between 11:55–12:10.

How in the hell.
