In this episode of Marxists at the Music, we dive into The Innovators (1993): Capitalism’s Accidentally Intentional Soundtrack. What happens when a supposedly “neutral” pop sound becomes the anthem of neoliberal optimism? Edward unpacks how corporate aesthetics, commercial pop, and cultural mood merged into one long, catchy sales pitch for capitalism — whether composers Kurt Bestor or Sam Cardon meant it or not.

Featuring insight, humor, and a few purrs from Executive Producer Myron the Cat, this episode continues CineMarch Media’s mission to tell the truth about art under capitalism — and make it fun while we’re at it.
