haha same

my guess is that they're gonna try and play that one as the single. we'll prob hear the full version at some point later.

Miggy listening to "I Want You (She's So Heavy)"

these are great songs. is this a "surprise ep release"? if this is a trend -- e.g., burial, beyonce, d'angelo, maybe miguel (?) -- i'm all for it.

the guitar sound effects on "NWA" sound like he's been listening to Tom Ze.

"surprise" albums are def a thing right now but generally singles or little EPs like this don't have much advance promotion. I don't think there was a lot of Art Dealer Chic hype before the first one dropped. Big Sean dropping 4 songs at once a while back ended up being a good launching pad for his current single, so this does seem to be a format people might switch to instead of full mixtapes or dropping a single by itself.

yeah it's sort of an agreeable meeting point... you still get the opportunity to crowdsource a single out of ~3-4 songs w/o having to put out a full album's worth of material and dealing with all that encompasses

:D :D :D :D :D

^^

i want to wrap myself in the guitar tone on the verses of 'hollywood dreams'

also, wait, did we never talk about his chemical brothers collab in this thread? it's really loud and places his voice in a really excellent new context, and it's one of my favorite songs of the year - i'm hoping he becomes a gallagher-like frequent collaborator for them

that is the worst opinion

what?

I was going to say, I missed something.

That CB track is really nice

saying nothing about the music but that EP art is o_O

It's really vile. It looks like a Hinder EP or something

woah that miguel + chemical brothers song is actually pretty great

lol dog

gimme a whole ep of miguel songs about coffee

we shuddered about the miguel/chem bros track elsewhere iirc

personally i thought it was horrendously awful

isn't half as good as the worst track on this EP (of which there isn't one)

imo the miguel/chem bros song is fine, chorus is fun

i missed it but yeah i really like it. chaotic and allowing him to do his thing in a new environment

gimme a whole ep of miguel songs about coffee

next up is Miguel's "Cream."

look up in the air

street art and sarcasm
crass humor and high fashion

pick a star in the sky, we could both say goodbye, all night

this nwa song is hypnotic and cool. want a whole album like this.

i start to be all omg his phrasing then i'm omg his voice and then omg hoooks and just omg why is he so rad

i really like that hollywood dream song

"Coffee" is gorgeous. Can't wait till it's a full song.

the spanish vocals behind nwa reminds me of some 70s classic rock song (fly like an eagle?)

Suite Judy Blue Eyes, Carry On or some other CSN(Y) song?

"Suite Judy Blue Eyes" would make sense.

love the pm dawn vibe on coffee.

"Suite Judy Blue Eyes" would make sense.
