The point of these threads is to encourage people to look for new and interesting music. We do this by listening to and ideally discussing albums we've never heard before. Many of us already listen to new music daily, these people are in it to venture "out of their comfort zone" by listening to albums they otherwise wouldn't have, or just to have a good time.
oh wait what's the cover thing what are we covering can I do bleep bloops

>Pee Pee Poo Poo I have seen the center of the void, and its majesty has eclipsed the highest echelons of known conception; it exists with such vigor and essence, as if we are living solely as parasites on a vital wholeness.
how does this work what do i do when i can only do vocals and basic acoustic guitar shit (and not even simultaneously lmao)
Justin Evans
I won't participate But I think it would make more sense if people could pick songs from the list first if they want to That way everyone can do what they are actually able to cover properly
Dominic Johnson
the point is not to cover it "properly"
Jonathan Harris
ah okay I suggested the best autechre track I could think of
Adrian Miller
record yourself playing in audacity, then record yourself singing over the guitar. basic overdubbing shit
Carter Long
My reasoning was it should be a comp with recognizable songs. Also a challenge. Ideally they'd be standards so anyone could interpret them, i.e. cover them properly. We're going with the flow now though
Wyatt Cruz
trips confirm
Lincoln Mitchell
>the point is not to cover it "properly" wait what I'm gonna cover the fuck out of anything I get
Carson Hughes
>Also showed it to a friend and she really liked it as well Most game I've had in my life lmao. Glad you enjoyed it! I'm hoping to get working on some new stuff this summer, but seeing as I'm starting my bachelor thesis tomorrow I probably won't be cooking up anything anytime soon.
Chase Nguyen
im super rusty at guitar i figure so that'd take enough of an effort but it's probably the best i got, unless i can find an instrumental of a track floating around somewhere/find someone to play the instrumental for me lol
Julian Watson
can i cover xiu xiu's cover of only girl in the world?
Jack Gray
yeah but it doesn't need to be good
Bentley Reed
Luck of the draw, babey. That's why we need good picks for this.
Jose Diaz
but that way many people will be unhappy with their song and it will take forever to get everything together (it will anyways, don't get your hopes up)
Isaiah Baker
What is the qualification for this shit? I need to participate.
Oliver Cooper
They shouldn't sign up then. It's a project.
Jayden Diaz
eh its all about trax 1 2 3 and 7 desu
Henry Perry
Here it is again. We'll do a poll soon and you'll get randomly paired up with a song to cover.
Nicholas Edwards
>but seeing as I'm starting my bachelor thesis tomorrow I probably won't be cooking up anything anytime soon. idk, I heavily overestimated the effort it would take, I'm handing mine in this week and it wasn't that much of a struggle But that's probably different for every subject
Xavier King
> → Thanks
Elijah Allen
Yea idk i might be overthinking it. But it'll probably be time consuming af. We'll see i guess.
Logan Roberts

Unwound definitely; October All Over and Demons Sing Love Songs would lend themselves well for this i think
have you listened to it? is it actually decent or the typical recent anco shite?
Charles Hill
yeah i love hacker i meant aye aye and get got i made this meme inspired on your mango edits
i need to retry exmilitary as well i tried bottomless pit and tptb again and they were weak nldw disappointed me too not as good as i remembered
Robert Reed
exmilitary has takyon, which is the Ultimate Death Grips Banger
Dylan Murphy
get got is very overrated but the hook in aye aye is legit one of the best in the genre.
Michael Moore
I've Seen Footage is just an MC Hammer / Salt N Pepa banger for the 21st Century
Jayden Myers
hell yeah
Camden Garcia
i started exmil but i think ive had more than enough grips for one day

Caleb Price

Hello /citypop/, I need some recs. I've listened to Tatsuro Yamashita, Sugar Babe, and Tatsuhiko Yamamoto and it was all pretty good, but Naoya Matsuoka was a whole new level. A Farewell to the Seashore and 夏の旅 are exactly in the style I want them.
Anything more like it?
Caleb Sanchez
Bad. There were some songs on here that legitimately irritated me, like the Harder Better Faster Stronger by Daft Punk kind of irritation. I really didn't like the funkier/ dancy production either. The lyrics themselves were pretty unbearable at times too, which wouldn't normally irritate me except for how prominent they were here. She sounded like she either A) Had a very limited English vocabulary B) Was improvised singing while not knowing what to say. Take an example from, in my opinion, the worse song on here, Human Behavior.. "If you ever get close to a human... And human behavior... Be ready... be ready to get confused." Like was she trying to sound deep or was she improvising I honestly couldn't tell. The only pros on this album was the song "Venus As A Boy", that track was actually good.. other then that though, the tracks were at best tolerable and at worse irritating. Also her voice was hot at times ngl desu.
I still see potential in her, but I don't think I'll like her dancier and funkier stuff if there's any of that in the future. I hope her later albums will be more on the lush side and less on the ""fun"" side.
2/5 that album is amazing, and no i haven't listened to the anco yet.. will later tonight
Jaxson Jackson
on the bright side, there wont be more fishmans music
