music can be a powerful aid ...

hey
yep - just as quirky looking now as in '73 when born......
sorry if this is veering close to OT . its definately full on OTT

[spoogn]

I'm sure sb has not appreciated several members of this board attempting to get information out of him by bringing their mental health into discussion and saying that their own well being hangs in the balance.......... the album is coming. let's take a step back take a deep breath and make sure our heads are screwed on all the way before making a post. this whole process is supposed to be a fun one, remember? when it starts to be somethin other than that, maybe u should re-assess ur state of mind and let go a little bit

[Stanshant]

Yo ramp, look after yourself brother. Stay strong and please don't be afraid to ask for professional help. This time last year my missus was in a psych ward and wanting to top herself. A year on, life has never been better for either of us, and not much has changed except perspective. Lots of love.

[rampface]

Getting help today actually. Thank you.

Every time I see or read that, I think of 7 Kettles by Arcade Fire.

Well said.

Probly summing the wretch .... I think i said that b4??

Im not terribly synaesthetic sans suplements as a rool.....
....so i'll say mash potato ( as its a sick dance ) and Guava with pepper.....as it'll make you sick or dance ....ha

"Lennox: There was another intent to doing it that way. At least in the past bunch of years, it seems like it’s common for people to come to the shows and record them and pass around the recordings on the internet. Which is a great thing, and I think we like that a lot. But it also means that people’s first impression of the song is that live version or live recording, and then when the studio version comes out one can get attached to that first impression so I think it was exciting for us to present a version where the studio version is the first impression. The jury is still out on that, but we’ll see how it works."

lol who does that..?

haha, I thought the same.

new interview with animal collective

I almost cried and busted a nut at the same time

"Lennox: I can’t speak for Dave, but it was tricky. It had to be super specific how the two voices worked together so it was sometimes a little tricky to get the right rhythm or combination to make them dance in a way that suited the song. It wasn’t always easy."

[Me Tiger]

Those amazon clips... I am at peace with them now. I was really disappointed intially, mainly because of those 'boys latin' style vocals like in every 2nd song. I was: 'are you having a laugh? are they having a laugh?!"
I played it all to my girlfriend (she knows how much I anticipated), first saying: 'how could they do this to me? don't they understand?' I was especially freaked out by 'natural selection' - it sounded so stupid, I mocked it for several days, singing those delays. But then, I don't know how it changed, I started to listen to the clips not for having a laugh but because they are so enjoyable. Now I like them. Happy to be on the train again. My girlfriend is also looking forward to hear the whole thing.

[hybrination]

stop listening to bad quality 30 second soundclips and trying to gauge your opinions on the album imo

[ClownFrown]

^ what this one says

Yeah, hardcore knee-jerk reactions to minuscule pieces of music itt

[popparen]

get over yourself. the album is already out and every song is 30 sec. let's realize this now and move on.

I wonder what they will do next. maybe something longer?

[roopn]

Jokes aside I actually wouldn't be surprised if they came out with a second, more subdued album after this one within a year. I feel like after 3 years the dudes would have more ideas that can fit on one album, especially fast paced pop injected one like this

[Fovrodi]

Cool av roopn

[Vovenarg]

ya real original

All the interviews have been great and revealing a lot of exciting things about the album. It's interesting that there seems to already be so many review copies floating around.

[lucasmoreira]

for chz domino had a private page with the album on streaming and lyrics, and they gave access to all journalists early, i guess is what they normally do

[time4sumranch]

technically speaking, couldnt a reporter just record the stream using audacity and save it as one long mp3 file? or would the watermarks catch that too?

My understanding would be that it is marked in audio data, but in a way that is inaudible to the listener. So Audacity would probably still record the watermark.

[jetski]

yeah like they can embed it in the audio without making the song sound any different. I don't totally understand how it works but basically if u freebird it they'll know it was u

[Fovrodi]

What reviewer would go through that trouble? Don't most freebirds happen because of carelessness?

[jetski]

idk, maybe if a reviewer loved an album so much that they thought everyone deserved to hear it immediately they'd try that method. But yeah I don't think it's a likely or frequent occurrence

[time4sumranch]

Yeah or if they wanted to send it to friends and then their friends freebird it, thinking it wont get traced back to the reporter

[dio]

this isnt fair

[Ethmin]

you should have become a music journalist then

[Cussing Bum]

But they specifically said I didn't have to go to college

[valar602]

Don't people lose their jobs if they freebird it? Not really a risk to take what with the economy and all

[jetski]

yea lizard mentioned that on the last page

I studied journalism. Waste of time. I would give up an illustrious career to freebird this right now if I could. Wouldn't even be cute about it. Post it to FB. Hand it out at the town centre. Go down in a blaze of glory

[Fovrodi]

Ok

[valar602]

Hopefully they stream it on their website alongside a compilation of Bob Ross episodes all psychedelically edited together.
