thread of miguel

i'm sure it's more a matter of some intern hitting 'publish' than miggy in the studio until the wee hours last night trying to get THREE WHOLE SONGS tracked and mixed in time

he wanted to make those tracks were sure things

CLINK

if anything can console me, it's nabisco writing about vols 1 & 2

also i think i dig "quickie" more than "sure thing" now... the production on quickie is so great. the way those spindly guitar lines sorta slowly float away, the liveness of the drums. it's all very post-coital.

i pretty much shake my first at each and every notion that anything is better than "sure thing" but "quickie" is pretty great, yeah

that whole album, man. "hard way" is my fav sleeper cut

thx for the nabs link, i'll have to remember to read that

err i meant "teach me". "hard way" is good too tho

He said on his twitter vol 3 is coming later today

oh dope

We're discussing the release of this thing like we're waiting for Papa John's to deliver that large pie.

^ 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.
