Surface Noise | Bonus Trax: How Social Media Fosters Artificial (or Real) Hype

The BONUS TRAX came in hot this week with an update from a shipping fiasco with Rhino Hi-Fi (tears may have been shed). What follows came an impromptu Beatles discussion that caught many off guard. Bong launches his patented verbal bows and arrows into the new Paul McCartney: Man on the Run documentary, which opens the floodgates to all kinds of feelings on the Liverpool Four. 

Following those spicy takes, the guys discuss the role social media plays in the artificial (or real) hype train(s) that have our wallets sometimes begging for mercy. It is deliberate? Calculated? Dumb luck? Or simply over saturation we create in our own feeds trying to chase down more elusive vinyl prizes? 

Only way to win is to play, right?
