That's the issue... noone's gonna fund a guy who will spend that $1 better... because who wants to read the news about a guy who's startup can raise $150,000 and have that be a six year runway.

Ha, today I learned one guy writes, records, performs, and produces all of Tame Impala's music, in the recording studio. So, yes!

Stevie Wonder is surely more widely recognised?... Or Prince.... Dave Grohl also did this for the Foo Fighters first record (not sure on the mixing part though)

I like it too. At least 10 years ago it was good but I haven’t listened recently. Prince and Stevie Wonder are timeless and much larger impact though
Also, to any VC's reading this, this guy will spend $1 better, leaner and farther than any team you can name, and he's already demonstrated he has the chops w/this project.
Finally, thanks for sharing this. This is the kind of quality post that 100% justifies the time I spend on HN.
