SKY FERREIRA

wait which song sounds like Stereolab? “Ain’t Your Right”?

Omanko sounds like OLV 26

With a healthy dose of of Suicide as well as Stereolab

oh yeah I was thinking that one too

after seeing her interviews and clips of her live performances tho I really do worry NTMT was a fluke and her follow up could very well be a dud.

now starring in the black metal biopic Lords of Chaos(!!)

chromatics dear tommy vs. masochism

Omanko sounds like OLV 26

YEP Nailed it bud

GUESS WHAT THERE'S FINALLY A GOOD REASON TO UPDATE THIS THREAD

YASSSSS!

miracles really do happen, y'all

This exactly what I wanted from her! What I deserved. So happy for Sky.

ok i take back waht i said

Is there a thread yet for "most disturbing pop songs to crack the top ten" yet?

Pretty faithful to the original, but also very 2018.

that Elliot Smith cover upthread is disturbing

cover is surprisingly great for a scratch thing

yeah I was pretty impressed with his guitar playing - that is a hard song to play. no indication in any of DIIV's music that he can play that well. her vocals sound good, too. but it is a heroin song, given the circumstances of the time, i get why it's dark.

the slight dip in the melody of "of" in "there must be something he's thinking of." is great.

Great cover - on record at least she's always had about twice the vocal presence and intensity of Aimee Mann, so it's no surprise that she plumbs something more from this obviously good song than fools like me ever knew was there.

On the topic of the follow-up album, can't anybody Extraordinary Machine this shit? Free Sky!

Aimee>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>sky

Yeah, it's a good song for her, but as a demo it sounds pretty undercooked, and doesn't add much to the original.

I am glad that she's starting to put stuff out there and communicate more. I take it as a sign that we will get a new album before too long.

on record at least she's always had about twice the vocal presence and intensity of Aimee Mann

excuse me

Well, she's louder...

idk I think the Kim Wilde comparison is otm

virtually every singer on the planet has at least twice the vocal intensity of aimee mann

Yeah, that's not really a challop at all. No slam on Mann, it's just her toolset.

idk i guess i have a wide definition of "vocal intensity"

presence also

moodles is correct that sky is louder

Just heard this for the first time and I love it! It's the song Sky was born to cover. As much as I love the Till Tuesday version (and I really do!), I think Sky's vocals are superior Aimee's.

Also that bass is amazing! I don't have high hopes but it'd be great if they polished it a little bit and it became a proper release.

*superior to Aimee's

How did this cover become my favorite track of 2018? There's been a lot of good music this year but I keep coming back to this. Where's the fookin ablum?

Mine too!

it's a great song

not getting my hopes up yet but maybe this means new music in the coming months...?

I’m releasing music this month 🥴 (for real)

The first song isn’t a pop song...because I really want to make a video for it (& I love it). I’m confident about all of the pop songs on my record so I decided to start with something different. 🤠

!

a date! with the month and year specified!

I think this is just a single, no? Either way, yes!

I'm stoked thinking there'll be a Sky Ferreira album released in 2019. I avoid singles like I avoid movie trailers, but can't wait!

i can barely think about this for fear of jinxing tbh

SKY FERREIRA RETURNS: THE MASOCHISM INTERVIEW

With an uncompromising vision and the studio hours to back it up, the enigmatic singer is back with a new single—and a promise that her first album in six years will be worth the wait.

Additionally, Sky is even more particular about her final mixes. She will only be satisfied after she’s evaluated her song in seven different listening contexts: a car stereo; a smartphone with “regular” headphones; a smartphone with Apple earbuds; a smartphone’s built-in speaker; on a laptop; through “really bad, bad computer speakers—like the ones that came with Dells back in the early 2000s”; and the lush splendor of the studio, which is a personal luxury because, as she notes, “most people aren’t gonna listen that way.”
