Robyn

i will remain forever pressed that "dancing on my own" is the clear favorite among american robyn fans

looks fucking awful

you guys are fun

I saw Robyn live for the first time this week and it was emotional. Nicely picked setlist where the new songs slotted in with her older material very smoothly. She's such a star.

that would have stressed me out

yeah, I love Robyn and regret not getting tickets to this show, but not everyone on the subway loves Robyn and/or wants to be loudly sung at during their commute home (especially since it's "call your girlfriend"; sure hope no one who happened to be on the E train got dumped recently only to hear 500 randos singing the "dumping people rules" song at them)

It’s “Dancing On Your Own” they’re singing though, as noted above, not “Call Your Girlfriend”. (I’m all for people having a good time btw, both in or outside the subway)

“...On My Own” even

huh, the one upthread must have been a different video -- I could have sworn I saw someone post one the night of where it was "Call Your Girlfriend"

I thought it was nice

but if I encountered them irl I'd want to murder them all

She was incredible when I saw her in Toronto.

oh yeah i'm into that

(sort of) on this cut from the first part of Mr Tophat's bonkers prog epic Dusk to Dawn, unveiling over the next 6 weeks. Part I alone is over an hour long.

oh wow didn't know there would be that much. Part one is great!

ooooh

lol at the moment it goes full on castlevania

more details on the three-part album - no more Robyn, but other collaborators of hers in future parts

Surprised no reports from the latest dates. Meantime, only just noticed this exists.

Seems like she’s sticking with the same setlist.

No need to mess with perfection.

I was about to say, I have no problem with that.

Same tbh

watching her on the p4k festival stream and her live show sounds really, really good. hope she manages to make it over here

her band is really fantastic and have managed to very effectively translate the songs to a looser live sound, and a lot of the songs transition seamlessly together, and the reworks of older tracks are wonderful too

Oh, I can report the Barclays show was absolutely fantastic!!

her band was ESG! https://www.instagram.com/p/B0MipAigiNW/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

no they were just opening for her at barclays

She was quite good, and I admire her avoidance of the bangers: she played a long deep house playlist in essence.

xp oh lol i totally misinterpreted that post then

xpost -- yeah that was my read of the show I saw earlier in the year, a constant flow.

SF show greatness of course. Might even have liked it better than Oakland.

Has anyone else been following the Honey remixes that have been dropping every now and then?

Not all of them but I really liked Yaeji's Beach2k20 remix, and the Black Madonna remix.

My favs are the Kim Ann Foxman remix of “Honey” and the Black Madonna one for “Between The Lines”, but I haven’t heard the ones that came after the latter. I’m most curious about the Preditah and Yaeji remixes.

The Young Marco remix of "Baby Forgive Me" is unsurprisingly great

^^ was just about to post that. It’s gorgeous.

last night a google notification popped up on my phone with only a track list and the text NEW MUSIC FROM ROBYN 'ONE' (2020)

after some fruitless googling I finally found https://store.cdbaby.com/cd/robyn7

>:(

she did something with her hair, I think

this is great:

i was gonna say she should release an ironic remix of "beach 2k20" but apparently there's no shortage of ppl who actually think beachgoing is a good idea

the Yaeji remix of Beach2k20 was just released on 12" with a new Louie Vega remix yesterday, but I don't know how ironic it is

oh my god at remixes by Avalon Emerson AND Floorplan, this album truly is a gift that continues to give

i wish i liked that floorplan remix more

I love that Floorplan remix. The clicktracky feel reminds me of those South African house tracks from ten years ago that I’ve been digging recently.

i like the floorplan remix, the sax lick makes it pop for me, otherwise a little hood-by-numbers

avalon emerson remix is clearly on another level though

the rest of the remixes (i think there were 6? 8? total) did not sound great to me but i barely touched them so ymmv

Hello.

took me a second to determine that suggested August 5 and not "Part 5 of 8"
