I keep forgetting to learn how to be more of a biotch to biotches.
I thought we were all singing for BJs so we could have "harmonies."
That could be misinterpreted.

little details of musicianship/recording
Oh, actually, I don't know anything about that. I definitely know that there are some things I like because I have more of a background in music theory than most people (unusual chord progressions, time signatures, etc.), but I don't know jack about recording or gear.

There is a "hummer" joke in there somewhere.
― dan m, Tuesday, 25 September 2007 21:04 (sixteen years ago) link
I don't know anything about recording or gear! But I know when they way things are recorded sound good to me. And so do you (meaning everyone).

Go buy them, just to put a smile on Mark's face.

I'm not sure I do know what sounds I like re: recording, really. I don't know that I could isolate something like that. Maybe. I dunno. I thought it was my lack of expertise but it turns out I just don't like that band's music. Oh well.
It smells like mad tuna fish in here and I don't know if I can take 2+ more hours of it.

Matt P. says that whenever he goes in there to give Mark a poster to put up, he always gets guilted into buying like two or three CDs. Mark even put on the new Iron & Wine while Matt was in the store to try to pique his interest.
xpost Yeah, remind me what BJs stands for?

I think the Solo Demos version of Okkervil River's The Stage Names may be one of my favorite things I've heard this year.
― jon /via/ chi 2.0, Tuesday, 25 September 2007 21:09 (sixteen years ago) link
Gasp! Okkervil River! I forgot about that band. Boy I sure did like that one album from like... jesus, five years ago?
― Jenny, Tuesday, 25 September 2007 21:10 (sixteen years ago) link
I haven't listened to the OR album, something about the description made me think I wouldn't like it. Is it country-ish?
― n/a, Tuesday, 25 September 2007 21:11 (sixteen years ago) link
I suppose there are a couple of country-sounding songs if you aren't really paying attention to it, but I wouldn't use that word to describe any of it.

JA RULE The Mirror November 13 The Queens rapper spices up his latest tranche of thug-love jams with some attention-getting samples: ''Father Forgive Me'' finds Ja growling along to a prominent snippet of the Beatles' ''Eleanor Rigby,'' while ''300'' features macho dialogue from the flick of the same name.
As if he wasn't annoying enough already.

his latest tranche of thug-love jams his what?
― La Lechera, Tuesday, 25 September 2007 21:46 (sixteen years ago) link
I was wondering that myself. What happened with the Beatles catalog recently that led to all the rappers sampling them legally now? The new Wu-Tang has a "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" sample.

"The word tranche is French for slice; in the financial sense of the word, each bond is a slice of the deal's risk."
