Guest countchocula Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 Adult Swim has always played electronic music and Cartoon Network is starting to catch on. I got up at 6am for work the other day and turned on the T.V. which was still tuned to CN because of Adult Swim the night before. I heard Squarepusher - Red Hot Car playing and quickly checked the time to see if I had woken up early and adult swim was still on. I was shocked to see it was the children's block of programming. It's too bad they didn't include the lyrics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jules Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 So many of your posts are very insightful and well thought out. I don't understand what you are getting at here though. I mean it's not like they are posting the name and album of the artist and saying hey look at us we are hip. It's like a 5 second snippet and if you recognize it, it's because you know it...

Guest GrandPopPoplock Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 Cartoon Network has been playing electronic music for YEARS . It all began with Toonami back in 1997 . They use to play stuff by Cujo , Kid Koala , Daft Punk ( I remember they premiered Daft Punk's One More Time ) Joe Boyd Vigil etc . So electronic music is nothing new to CN.

There was a Ben10 commercial a few years ago (I don't know if Ben10 was Nickelodeon or Cartoon Network, it came on after I stopped watching television regularly...) that had "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger" on it. I was a little surprised, then remembered that it's a popular song. That same day I heard "Atlantis to Interzone" (by Klaxons) on another Ben10 commercial though.

Guest disparaissant Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 using the word "hipster" to describe something reminds me of this girl i know who uses the word "indie" as an insult. she's 15. [as] has a deal with stone's throw and warp, that's why it's mostly stuff from those labels. they were pimping cosmogramma pretty hard a few weeks ago, too. had a whole bump about it and everything.
