"To be honest I don’t know what baroque slacker pop is"

I think I read the phrase in a Pitchfork review and banked it for future use. I do know that baroque pop was birthed in the sixties. A quintessentially English pursuit, that grew out of the psychedelic movement. Journalist and St Etienne member Bob Stanley writes,

As the record label Analog Africa has it in their strapline: The future of music happened decades ago.
