yeah, while i maybe slightly prefer the live version of "i remember learning how to dive" from the other music performance, i love the vashti version just the same. prospect hummer was always my favorite of their eps. that might have changed when fall be kind came around, but i still wrestle between the two. prospect hummer is so great tho.

I had a small back and forth with dave on instagram and I asked about the red dead song that he played live during the down there tour and have since been playing during the dj sets. He said that the song title is "Mountain Game" and that the newer version is Noah, Brian, and himself. Noah apparently only provided some vox. He also said that he's thinking of freebirding it. I was the person who got the song titles of the other down there outtakes out of dave at the knitting factory. He told me all of the song names that night but I was too high to remember mountain game so I'm pretty stoked to finally have a confirmation on that. Forgetting that name has been bothering me since then which was December 2011.

Nice, a "freebird" of that song would be pretty great. Do it, Davey!!

Also that's pretty funny that you forgot the title but finally got closure after 4 years. Going the extra mile

"There just might be a special tongue songs release coming and theres lots to be heard and seen but what do i know wawa."

I dont think its a sample though. Its a pretty simple melody. just the most basic arpeggiator on a C

Post **Posted:** Tue Dec 30, 2014 4:46 pm

It isn't. The synth arpeggio just drew a ton of comparisons to Your Love when My Girls was first released. They had to change it to the synth from the original piano in the studio because it didn't sound right.

WHOA, totally missed this! Ahhh what could it be? Sung Tongs reissue with bonus tracks?? They didn't have any outtakes did they? (cause any ST outtakes ended up on Prospect Hummer I thought, although recorded in a different session)

There are songs like Don't Believe The Pilot, Covered in Frogs, etc.

Studio versions of those would be amazing

I never knew that. Very interesting because I actually prefer the early piano version over the swathes of synth. How I'd love to hear some outtakes of discarded versions.

My post had nothing to do with the picture. I was responding to the post by Untitled that said "I dont think its a sample though. Its a pretty simple melody. just the most basic arpeggiator on a C"

Welp, I thought I could listen to all of HCTI with my eyes closed to experience it for the first time, and I fell asleep sometime after Infant Dressing Table. That was a very freaky and cool experience. I didn't start seeing things in a dream or anything, but when I was awake I sort of hovered there hearing the music but not being fully awake, making it like all of it mixed into one very strange atmosphere. That was actually a pretty cool experience, would recommend it.

Dammit I spilt my tea reading this I WILL LOSE MY SHIT IF THEY RELEASE STUDIO VERSIONS

Crossing my fingers for: Don't Believe The Pilot, Covered In Frogs, Happy Singing Band, Tuvin, and non-Vashti versions of It's You, Prospect Hummer, and LHTD

I hope that one day Animal Collective makes a Broadway production.

Well, here is the whole convo:

"what about an official release of some of the rarer songs from the sung tongs era? it was tragic how long I went without knowing stuff like covered in frogs and always you existed. I know quite a few people that would love for those songs to get a real release outside of bootlegs."

"what about Sleeper Factory"

Avey: "there are no studio type recordings of songs like sleeper factory or always you. There just might be a special tongue songs release coming and theres lots to be heard and seen but what do i know wawa."

i believe sonic once said he'd like to re-mix tung songs........ hmmm

Post **Posted:** Thu Jan 01, 2015 4:50 pm

Oh dip. What if they release some of that minimalist electronic stuff they were working on between hcti and st?

Post **Posted:** Sat Jan 03, 2015 2:38 am

what if it's just an official release of the other music boot? I'd be stoked. does anyone know who recorded that?

Have you heard the Together recording that popped up here a few months ago? If not, you're in for a treat

amazon reviews of animal collective music are the most hysterical things

it's making my morning

There is a lot of filler about halfway through and at the end of the CD, between "Visiting Friends," "College," and "Whaddit I Done." (I don't care if you try to justify these tracks by saying "Those are experimental." Nobody wants to listen to an acoustic guitar being strummed off beat for 12 minutes.)

yeh I don't wanna listen to it for 12 minutes. I wanna listen to it for 12,000 minutes

Post **Posted:** Sun Jan 04, 2015 5:28 pm

LOL Cmon man. You gotta listen to it more than once at least

Some people will never learn

Anyone notice that Spirit vinyl is going for $1000 on amazon? I still haven't even opened mine.

Post **Posted:** Mon Jan 05, 2015 5:34 am

the description for the bidding should be "Spirit They've Vanished from the market"

Not that it has filler...that it is filler

Top Notch Filler
