I can never tell if she is trolling or like completely serious

i think both of those things are true

I was thinking it's been a very long time since her album was released. and no new music since then ?
I don't know why but I thought she would be the kind of artist who releases new tracks every now and then, spontaneously, online or else.
― AlXTC from Paris, Monday, 28 October 2013 11:45 (ten years ago) link
she's been tweeting regularly about how she's been working on the album. said she's aiming for Q2 2014 iirc. i'd say it's taking so long because she's been touring pretty relentlessly.
― monotony, Monday, 28 October 2013 13:11 (ten years ago) link
Yeah, every picture she posts is like "this is what bathtubs look like in Singapore" or "picture of me meeting this artist at yet another festival" or "check out my goofy tour rider".
― how's life, Monday, 28 October 2013 13:15 (ten years ago) link
yeah, I thought the touring/enjoying notoriety aspect might be key.but still, nowadays, even on tour, I suppose it must be easy to make/record music, especiallly the way she seems to be working.
― AlXTC from Paris, Monday, 28 October 2013 13:21 (ten years ago) link
it's not like she needs to be in a studio with a producer, band, engineers, etc.
― AlXTC from Paris, Monday, 28 October 2013 13:22 (ten years ago) link
maybe she doesn't spend any time at all on music, maybe she just fucks around on tumblr for hours on end until she passes out

cool story bouch

I wrote a song for Rihanna too, got turned down tho, wanna hear it
re-recorder the visions songs ??what the !?
― AlXTC from Paris, Thursday, 5 June 2014 16:03 (nine years ago) link
tbh I'm intrigued. Some of the songs on Visions were cool but missing something.
― Johnny Fever, Thursday, 5 June 2014 16:06 (nine years ago) link
hum. I can't see how this could be any good... reminds me of the thread about re-recorded albums (that are always shitty).anyway, looking forward to the new album !
― AlXTC from Paris, Thursday, 5 June 2014 16:13 (nine years ago) link
seems like she only re-recorded the tracks for her live show, not for release? makes sense, i'm sure she feels like she can make them sound a lot better now.
― festival culture (Jordan), Thursday, 5 June 2014 16:18 (nine years ago) link
That's what I was thinking. Bedroom recordings sounding different at pitchfork fest or whatever. Haven't seen her live though, so I don't know.

I love the percussion in this (and the bass is cool too), like how she's using handclaps where hi hats would be, and the cool metallic kling klang stuff at the end! Grimes is so awesome!

― how's life, Thursday, 26 June 2014 19:28 (nine years ago) link
how she's using handclaps where hi hats would be
has been done in that exact way on 50 million popular songs in the past 3 years fyi

lol at the avalanche of fan comments on there hating the EDM breakdown
― festival culture (Jordan), Thursday, 26 June 2014 19:53 (nine years ago) link
uh it's decent i guess (not really, kinda boring actually) but if i didn't know it was grimes i don't think i would have given it even one full listen
― dyl, Thursday, 26 June 2014 19:54 (nine years ago) link
i am glad she is angering her fans tho, they need to be angered more
Right.
I like this song a lot after two listens (wasn't sold after one).
― Johnny Fever, Thursday, 26 June 2014 20:15 (nine years ago) link
I'd say at this point, I listen to a lot of music made my women. Probably more than music made by men. However, it creeps me out beyond belief when I see the fans of a lot of these women claim ownership of the particular artist's will and choices they make, and seeing how people were commenting on the new Grimes track just reminded me of that.
Quit being gross bossy fans, you dopes. These are grown ass women and they can do what they want...even if that means including a drop.
― Johnny Fever, Thursday, 26 June 2014 20:19 (nine years ago) link
drop is dumb, song is pretty dumb
― call all destroyer, Thursday, 26 June 2014 20:49 (nine years ago) link
But are you suggesting that these fans claim ownership of a particular artist's will and choices because they are female? Because I'm pretty sure there would be the same amount of complaining if a track like this was put out by a male artist, like Panda Bear for instance.
― MarkoP, Thursday, 26 June 2014 21:06 (nine years ago) link
I'm just saying I see it happen more with female artists, but I'm sure Austin Mahone and Twin Shadow and whoever else get a bit of it too.
― Johnny Fever, Thursday, 26 June 2014 21:28 (nine years ago) link
lol at handclaps exchange
on first listen this does a better job of extending the Grimes brand into EDM than the taylor swift single from last summer did hers so w/e

It doesn't happen more often with women musicians. You're imagining things.
