^ vol3 if it wasnt clear

thank you!

thanks!

digging it

yea 'party life' is p good. feel like it'd serve for some p killer remixes

"ooh ahh" is old tho :(

Weakest of the three, though that's not really an insult

yeah - I find it to be the most even though, like all three songs mesh and flow better than the other two EPs

though arch n point -> ...all is the best 1-2 combo

Yes. "Candles in the Sun" drifts; it's as if he wants to sound like the Gaye of Here, My Dear without having thought through how to realize his political pretensions.

It seems a little odd he choose the 3x-free EP format, since he doesn't seem like a very prolific songwriter. Seems to record at a slow pace, and he sometimes recycles songs ("Strawberry Amazing" as a single; "Ooh Ahh.") I don't mind, since those are good songs and he's perfecting them, I just don't want the new album (if there is one) to be the other songs from Mischief

guys

I can't get "Arch & Point" out of my head.

what order is this one supposed to be in

is ooh ahh from an old mixtape

the tracks are numbered, no?

not on my download (which is the official)

mine goes, candle ->ooh ahh -> party life

it's the opposite way round

that's backwards

is ooh ahh from an old mixtape

it's from mischief, yeah

is it the same version or rerecorded?

i'm not sure, i had a 7 minute car ride this morning and skipping after th first minute of that gave me time to finish the last song , ha

Love the new EP, great series!

(except for 'Broads', which I have deleted)

Finally listening to all these, loving it so far.

incidentally have we covered what "That I Do (FTRMX)" is exactly, is there an original non-remix version that's been out there since before the EP?

wouldn't make it the ideal format for him? trickling out 9 or fewer new songs between albums would make more sense than splattering out a couple of 50-minute mixtapes or a weekly series

xpost -- I was going to ask that, that and "...All" are my favorites so far.

i almost want to start a poll but i would feel bad about the slightly overrated "Adorn" crushing everything else

I don't think it's a sure thing that adorn would triumph over all the others

dude have you seen some of the hyperbole itt about that song

ha I was going to start a poll last night. I may yet.

"Adorn" will not top my list.

Who is that at the end of "Candles" anyway, I kinda stupidly assume Lennon but I'm not sure.

it is Lennon

dude have you seen some of the hyperbole itt about that song

most of it came before vol. 2 dropped tho

yeah there has been more hyperbole about "Broads" lately, i suppose

you're right, def think 'broads' would walk a poll

"Broads" is the only one I deleted.

dayo we gotta be careful about shooting sarcasm lasers simultaneously, don't cross the streams

bite your head off, man

ships do you wanna do like a "x > y >>> z" format top 5 breakdown on ur miggy faves so i know where ur coming from exactly

or do the poll and do it there, w/e

a) top 5 of ADC or all his stuff? b) where i'm coming from about his music in general or where i'm coming from with some particular post itt?

all his stuff, i guess i was mainly thinking about how far you'd rate 'sure thing' above the newer stuff (i assumed you would) but then wanting to know how overrated you see 'adorn' as being in adc's context

(obv number of arrows is not really a proper metric but we'll be here all day otherwise)

deleting songs off releases is still scarcely conceivable savagery to me btw, does everyone really do that

still kinda feeling out the ADC stuff because from one listen to the next one song might sound great and another drab or tacky and then on the next listen they switch places. to be clear "Adorn" is def one of the better new songs, just think the SINGLE OF THE YEAR talk is a bit over the top.

i didn't delete "broads" but i did uncheck it

i never delete songs (whole albums to make room sometimes, but never individual songs). i don't even skip tracks if i'm going through an album in non-shuffle mode.

just think the SINGLE OF THE YEAR talk is a bit over the top.

this is ILM
