in the plethora of Boomers, Zoomers and Millennials, they stick out as effortlessly cool somehow. Like why does my uncle have better taste in music than I?

Seriously tho, for those born in '96... are we millenials or gen z?
asking for a friend.

Recounting a maxim a friend and I came up with on the subway home:
Whatever you could call "Gen Z" is cleaved in two: were you first online on forums or were you first online on social media? If you are the former, you are something else, not quite millennial, attuned to it, but somewhere in between - a category not worth considering? If you were first online on social media? Call it a "generation" (though we should resist generational characterization in general!)

With all due respect to ruffianbandwidth
the University of Minnesota's Radio K is the classic model of the college alternative radio station The Current wishes it could be. (I still dig Mac Wilson's show tho). the Twin Cities is lucky enough to maintain more than one very cool radio station.
Radio K plays new bands who sometimes sound like old bands. An actual eclectic mix of genres. Random metal every now and again. College kids who, all these years later, keep spinning Jeff Buckley.
I'm always shazaming this station. It gives me hope that indie music still has a future.
My favorite thing is listening to the dj reading the top 5 songs of the week and feeling old because I have never heard of any of the bands but they all have hilarious names and song titles.
My other favorite thing is when a 20 year old dj plays Texas is the Reason followed by Braid in the middle of a "classic 00s emo" set.
