WOAH this is so good thanks pete for sharing! and thanks to everyone else who found the song! i seriously cant fucking wait for this album now

also, maybe this has already been discussed (i've been keeping away from the boots so im not sure which samples we've found) but yeah im pretty sure the chanting sample that starts in the beginning is some version of the song Mbube - maybe this version, but sped up a bit?

ohh nice find, that's definitely it!

Yeah, I think it was dance avey dance who suggested it was Paul Simon's "Homeless" a while back, and I thought that was it, but this seems closer.

going back to basics.

speaking of neutering lyrics - what happened to that one song from ATP that has since disappeared - the 'your (bed?) is so good' one??

Ok upon many more listens this song is actually incredibly evocative.

i think its more like idgaf yolo smoke weed mon

Guys maybe I'm crazy but I don't think this new jam is a live recording from a concert. Whatever it is I am digging it.

Q tips, people. Amongst other things, you can tell primarily by the distant vocals that it's live. The samples are so upfront and clear because they are part of a direct feed to the soundboard. You guys are getting way too used to all the crappy iphone recordings of recent shows that when a legit live recording comes out everyone is floored.

What's to say he didn't record it like this aesthetically to mimic a live sound? What I mean is, why can't it sorta be a "studio version" while also essentially being a live soundboard type recording? I'm not an expert either, but I think it could be kind of cool if he was looking for that live sound and recorded it in such a way that is set up as if it's a soundboard recording, minus the crowd in the room.

Having said that, I agree with everyone else about the "studio treatment" sentiments. I actually enjoy that this sounds more raw. It adds character to it. It makes sense for this song too, while it may not to this degree for every song. For example, the "can't go back" song may benefit from a little more polished / less delayed vocals, but a similar approach would be preferred IMO.

I'm not an audio expert or anything, so I apologize if this question sounds stupid, but wouldn't you still be able to hear a good amount of natural sound/audience noise even if it is a soundboard recording? I guess it's hard to tell with this recording, since there's a good amount of atmospheric stuff going on in the background anyway, but the music/sounds/vox sound pretty isolated (i.e. like it's not live).

And just as an aside, if this is in fact a studio recording of "Make My Day", I'm totally cool with that. I felt something like Benfica sounded a little sanitized with the studio treatment (even though I still like it), and I was/am afraid that these new jams will sound like that when they get the studio treatment.

this is so dope - i do think it is a soundboard tho. I really hope the studio production stays true to this for the most part.

not sure if this has already been mentioned, but the snippets of dialogue at the end are from Apocalypse Now. Can be heard at 0:05 in this video:



Also I love how the beginning of that massive synth chord at the end sounds like a train. Panda loves those train samples, doesn't he?

What about a p4k video? did I miss something?
