Owen Pallett -- In Conflict

that show was crazy good

OP, return to Miami and play.

Very good times and good people.

for real - nice to see you all!

Yeah that was rly, rly good

Thanks for coming, guys, thanks for the mug forks. Sorry if I was cloudy-eyed I was in need of a nap.

Jealous of y'all. But happily so!

you were not cloudy eyed dude, you were just off the stage from over two hours of performance. glad you dug the cup, may it bring you good drinks.

Brad!

it is literally a miracle that that piece went up, i'm going to recede into a cave for 100000 years now

we will hunt you down at some gig someday, BN (j/k, probly).

lol i would've hung out but i was on a date

good piece Brad!

I noticed that OP has lots of bears, in pairs, in his audience.

also saw a guy stroking his bf's hair, and they looked alike! is that a thing now?

don't bears date their own?

the twins were dark and slim nonbears

saw a lot of repeat types from Taylor Mac earlier that week.

morbs i hope i don't blow your mind with this

He's scoring an upcoming HBO documentary I worked on. Excited to hear it.

cried on the train while listening to this record last week. i was sick which occasions a lot of public crying but still

Ugh, Song for Five & Six. Grateful I'm the only one in the office today and that my coworker keeps a box of kleenex on her desk.

am growing impatient for thee mighty lp5!

It's coming along really crazily well, to be honest. The few people I've been keeping in the loop on it have been liberal with their superlatives. It is really just a week or so away from being done but it won't be out until Q1 2018.

I'm gonna remix and remaster Has A Good Home so that it's something I can bear to listen to, and remaster He Poos Clouds also, and re-release both with b-sides and stuff, hopefully within the next year or so. Also I have a couple of OSTs (M Blash's "The Wait" and Anton Corbijn's "Life") that I'm gonna have out soon, they are both acceptably listenable music objects. The soundtrack to "Life" especially is really nice I think

New album is called Island by the way and it's a narrative sequel to Heartland, there is a song called "Lewis Gets Fucked Into Space", it's got Abbey Road strings and Greg Fox is on it also

I approve of all of this, not that you need my approval.

yaaaaaaay

lewis gets fucked into space!!!!!

Looking forward to all this!

Absolutely yes!

"Lewis Gets Fucked Into Space"

Holy shit, this is gonna be awesome.

really looking forward to this, the performance of Lewis Gets Fucked Into Space that was posted on facebook quite a while ago was really nice

"Lewis Gets Fucked Into Space

Holy fuck yes!

Your albums have consistently marked huge occasions in my life so far. Every single one a soundtrack to a massive turning point: scales flipping, stones turned, truths unearthed. It's like your music and I are growing up together. Which is so odd, on first thought. But it feels so intimate, intrinsically, even though I don't even know you apart from some messages on this board. I don't know you but the distance leaves enough space to fill in the gaps, grants me leverage and allows me to entice, seduce, and also be removed from people I cherish dearly. I made love to 'Heartland' several times, and did so too to 'In Conflict', though that was when it ended between us. And that's ok; it had to end. End 'In Conflict' was the perfect soundtrack yet again.
It is your music that bridges distances between me and people who I play your music to, people who would never ever hear your music otherwise but through me, people I have left behind in my life now yet know they will occasionally play you and think of me, of our brief yet heated and memorable encounters. Your music does this. Think about how strong and powerful that is.

So whenever it is when the new album drops, I can only look forward to it soundtracking and accompanying me further along the as of yet unknown road. Up yours <3

ahhhh can't wait!!

fuck me into spaaaaaaaa a a a aa a a aaa a-aa-aaaaa-aaace

lewis. gets. fucked. into. space.

into it

Getting me hyped for this, Owen.

Yeah this is going to rule. Greg Fox too! Holy shit
