thats so fuckin lame!
#1: like someone else said, its gotta be a fuckin joke. #2: if its NOT a joke its even sadder because again like someone said if she really cared about her "art" she would not be selling it, and even if she was selling it, it would be cheap because obviously there is going to be a small percentage if any that will want to pay that much for 1 cd. let alone the whole 4 disc set for a couple grand.
#3. shes not that good, sure its nice stuff, but its not amazing by anymeans.
#4. she sounds stupid.

this is the funniest thing on her web page and I quote :
"I am only performing for 50 thousand dollars. No joke. They are losing billions of dollars, selling untalented people. They have laid off thousands of people. The majors have no talent on their rosters. If they were "very" talented, they would be able to sell a billion copies world-wide. There are six billion people in the world. I whip them good. There isn't anyone as talented as I am in that biz. They don't know the value of art. They think that music is worthless. They sell people who can't sing, they have no quality"

good lookin' out. before clicking on the topic i figured you were just going to ask the question and open it up for discussion. i had in mind to say "that's preposterous, how can a whole style of MUSIC be pretensious? some of the most creative music is 'IDM'. it's only some of the musicians and fans that are pretensious, not the whole genre." but wow, EMO music (the only bad thing fugazi and slint ever did was unleashing this crap on us) takes the cake for pretensiousness. not only are most of the dedicated fans obnoxious and arrogant and pretensious to indescribable degrees, the singing and music is almost completely predicated on PRETENDING to be hurt and marginalized when in fact they're just whining about shit the whole world has to put up with. they're selling reality to the (rich, sheltered) reality-deprived.
this marissa bitch should learn to spell-check before trying to sell her albums for thousands of dollars. and naming songs "Pretty little Posers" and "University of the Vapid and Vacuous"? talk about hitting the nail on the head.
notice how she has no gigs lined up and in place of a listing she's just whining some more about her supposed talent being overlooked and people being sheep. funny girl.

I find it funny how IDM fans as a whole get described as pretentious (I suspect largely due to the name, "intelligent dance music") when actually we're one of the most open to other genres... I regularly see discussion of classical, hip hop, drum and bass, rock, indie etc. here and like music in all those genres. EMO. garage and RnB fans (not to mention artists) are all (generally speaking) a lot worse than us.

absolutely.. and when i check out, say, radiohead boards, which is super-rare, almost none of them have even HEARD of the stuff most people here listen to (and not just the IDM), and there's really no encouragement to talk about anything but current rock music. similarly, hip-hop boards rarely stray away from hip-hop except for people's "sigs" (signature lines) which list their current favorite albums or quotes, here a bunch of indie and mainstream rock stuff comes up. sometimes i give CERTAIN people here a hard time about being closeminded to other music but the reason i didn't leave this place ages ago is because nowhere else is such great and diverse music discussed on the regular.

i just gave slint and fugazi the biggest compliment: that the only thing they can be blamed for is unleashing "emo" on us. in other words, i'm saying they were (and in fugazi's case still are) amazing bands who i love very much. it just sucks that they were SO good that they inspired a generation of poor imitations with commercial and sappy leanings.

haha, i love these really subtle satirical sites. it has to be a joke, yet its done well enough so no one is quite sure whether its real or not, usually theres at least one really absurd thing that tips you off.. like the $1000 for one album.
the scary thing is that the site doesnt have to exaggerate such things too much to make a satire of them.

i hate all these wannabe freaks who develop an obsession with their own abilities and blow them out of proportion, yes to a point where you end up with a bill for a fucking $1,000 for a cd-r that labeled with a k-mart marker "i am such a talent, here listen"

Vincent Gallo has basically taken over Friendster.com. He has the biggest account on it, with 500 'friends'. I asked to be his 'friend' and I got a email saying he approved my request, but when I log on he's not connected to me. I think it's just Friendster is a piece of crap that doesn't function.

Another money quote:
"I am a genius talent. I know it. I am keeping my music to myself now. Because I realize our culture loves tatoos, low class people, ugliness, dum idiots., money, sluts, porn, and filth of every kind. I am too good to give you anything. You don't care about our culture. You are glad that it is this way. Your whole priorities are with money and yourself. You don't care if I am more talented then the beatles. Because you believe that women are not that gifted. That is how you were brought up. I have more talent then they did. But you don't care. You are satified with seeing women with no talent rip their clothes off. That is how dumb you are."
Mellissa Marchent, or whatever her name is. I've forgotten already.

yes she get pretty nasty:
anywho: i liked these ones from the google finds:
on the peasants and her not being a plane jane:
Commerialism and Mc.Donolds music A review of Jagged Little Pill by Alanis Morissette posted 20-11-2003 by Marissa Marchant People are so used to hearing music that fits in a little box. Commerialism is not fine art. Low art sells to peasants world wide. they sell music at greasy wing prices. the only culture they have is bacteria. NOt a joke. I sell my music for one thousand dollars a album because I am fine art and the real thing. I am not plain jane like all of these people. I know the value of art. I charge 25 thousand dollars to perform. I write every style of music and sing every style of the high level. much higher then the biz. I play a few instruments very very well. I studied opera for years..and sing every style of music and write every style.
on a change for us to perform on her festival:
advanced musicians wanted ...for festivals Posted by: marissa marchant
Calling ALL genius's..!!!! hi, I am organizing festivals and I am counteracting the anti-talent movement that has been happening for twenty or so years.. are you a GENIUS????? can you write one song after another that is original and strong..and are you a seriously gifted instrumentalist.. and/ or have very unusual vocal talent..do you have serious discipline.?? are you a perfectionist.. ?? are you one these people who likes to play many instruments extremely well??? do you exceed all the people in the major label industry?? I believe you are out there..numbers of you..I love vinyl and quality..I am getting some icons to back these festivals.. but have to have extraordinary talent.. any style of music.. any race ,, age...female..male..disabled...any nationality is accepted.. thankyou...don't feel scared to contact me..if you know anyone who is a genius..don't be jealous of them..tell them about this ad.
