The Juan Maclean Isn't Terrible

In the fall of 2005, an ambitious young hipster named Cereffusion wanted to impress the cool, older kids, so he recommended this hip new music act he discovered.  The only problem is that they were terrible.  Cliched.  Pretentious.  Boring.  So the cool, older kids laughed at poor Cereffusion, who was so sad that he grew a beard.

However, time exonerated the plucky upstart.  Somewhere between 2005 and 2009, The Juan Maclean learned how to make songs like "No Time."  Cereffusion's faith had been rewarded, because what was once pretentious and boring had blossomed into something pretty and funky, in a post LCD Soundsystems white hipster kinda way.  Near as I can tell, it's also a love song between a human and a robot.  Yes, please.


He also shaved the beard.  Truly, it is a heady time for our protagonist.
