I spoke to W.David Marx in a karaoke bar in Tokyo about his new book Blank Space which examines the last 25 years of pop culture. We touched on Simon Reynolds influence on music writing and the five steps to ‘fix everything’.

Deep Feedback with Elijah
Deep Feedback is hosted by Elijah, a London-based writer and DJ, having expansive conversations across Black British Culture, Electronic Music, The Creator Economy and Pro Wrestling. Built for a post-follower, post-like internet, the show is rooted in the idea that the only response that matters long term is what your work creates next, the art it sparks, the behaviours it shifts, and the conversations it starts.
