visions is a very beautiful album, i like it a lot

can we do a grimes starter pack??

Tatami Galaxy is pretty great you should check it out

a /grimes/ starter pack may be a good idea too

None of those apply to me except for the Xanax
We need to gas the weebs.
Not all Grimes fans are the same.

i will
...grimes likes anime you know?

grimes is exempt because she makes good music

There's some good anime. Like Death Note and Code Geass. And most shit out of Ghibli. That gay loli shit can fuck right off though.

...

i feel like she isn't a friend at all

>Your breakdown of pop music's fundamental elements aren't wrong but are only one piece of the puzzle.
Absolutely.

>Grimes is certainly more adventurous than mainstream pop artists (Taylor Swift, Katy Perry) but nearly all of Grimes' songs are very poppy.
Never said otherwise.

>Most Grimes songs have an infinitely looping chord progression running through most sections (unlike classical).
First of all, see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passacaglia
Quoting myself from long ago:
>>In small-ensemble situations (typified by the jazz and classical chamber groups) sonic interest is principally achieved through variations in scale, chord progression, time signature, and tempo (aspects known as the horizontal axis elements of music in music theory circles - since they're rendered horizontally in standard music notation) rather than through variations in sonic texture and timbre.
>>
>>In contrast to this, large ensemble situations (typified by layered/sample based music - ala Grimes - and classical orchestra/organ music) the opposite is true. Sonic interest is primarily achieved through variations of sonic texture and timbre (aspects known as the vertical axis elements of music in music theory - since they rendered vertically standard music notation) brought about by combining individual samples/instruments together in constantly changing configurations, while leaving the horizontal axis elements relatively untouched.

[1/2]

[2/2]

>>
>>One of the best classical examples of this latter method is Bach's Passacaglia in C Minor (originally written for organ, but transcribed here beautifully imo for full orchestra youtube.com/watch?v=FAIT02mB9lo) Notice how, despite its extended running time and constantly variating sound, the horizontal axis elements described earlier are very simply defined and NEVER change (the entire song's chord progression consists of the same 4 chords repeated ad nauseum.)
>>
>>This is the sort of context in which the complexity of Grimes' music (especially regarding her earlier stuff) is based; constant, conscious variations in sound quality rather than formal structure.
>>
>Most Grimes songs are verse-chorus-verse (unlike classical). In fact, they're nearly always close to verse-chorus-verse-chorus-bridge-chorus. Sometimes with intros, outros, and pre-choruses, sometimes extended a bit in her longer songs, but still pretty much following the pop "macro structure" formula.
Which is exactly my point - Grimes makes music that - structurally speaking - from a MACRO level is thoroughly contemporary pop, but on a MICRO level is distinctly classical.
Hence why it's game-changing.

Do you think Grimes shaves?

for who?

Because shes likes being worshipped by lil beta cucks and wants her big ol cunny licked

do you think she has beta cucks?

cucks dogs anything willing to work their way through the crust

that's what happens when you don't need to do anything for people

>implying plastic bottles have anything to do with anything

People who listen to Grimes like to take it in the ass.

your feminization subservient plans for society wont succeed schlomo

water is a fashion statement to people who have money

>implying that's a real thing and not just another load of conspiracy bullshit

its a very worthwile orgasm

grimes sucks, reply to this with reasons not and I'll prove you wrong

Eh. No. It's just a symbol of not being a nigger.

She writes and produces everything herself, including the artwork.

if you're taking it in the ass long enough all you can do is make the best of it

christ

i'm now impulsively inspired to bring her bodily odors into question

She probably smells just fine unless she's touring.

i posted it for the meme really

I kinda knew that, but there are people who really believe that shit.

I stay away from any plastic even bpa free im not risking it

stereotypes are usually true

you should stay well away from grimes if plastic offends you

Not "usually", no.

ill never fucking understand why Sup Forums jerks off to this mile-end hipster so much she is without a doubt the worst fucking musician to come out of this neighborhood/city

Literally throwing bricks at a wall and hoping it sticks.

don't expect sincere answers if you were secretly hoping for any

the joys of Sup Forums

you say that, but i don't think you've tried that for yourself

I just introduced Grimes to my normy friend and he's now obsessed.

What have I done.

...

You done fucked up.

the joys of being nobody

i hope our grimey is sleeping well

I hope grimey dies in her sleep

when she has time for it

not nice of you

>tfw will never put grimes asleep from a cum hazed coma

wedding dress captcha it mocks me

In which case, I shudder to think who you'd consider best.

she looks so sweet here, like a queen of love and all that is good

LOL

that's that side of her too

what the hell is that supposed to be?

ogre

the joys that were

Grimes as a green Majin from Dragon Ball Z.

Surely you know of the Google.

these were taken at very different times

What is really incredible is the fact that she is the writer, producer, lyricist, developer, video director, visual artist, and singer. She is amazingly talented in all those fields too. Such hard work and dedication to her music.

you forgot neurophysicist vampire and extremely cute too

only claire could accomplish so much on her own and be as successful as she is, if she's not my favorite artist then she should be. i admire her deeply, she's just amazing.

surreal almost as if ayn rand character stepped out of book

who is ayn rand? i don't read books.

most important philosopher of 20th century, laid foundations for silicon valley.

does she look like a bitch?

but she's not so much a vampire at all. she gives people great joys and hopes, and is doing everything that should be done as an artist, she gives people life.

>she gives people life.
yes she gave me 5 years of life on moo :'^)

i'm not even half that

>she gives people life
she drinks life from my soul, so yeah.. she's a vampire

look up emotional vampire

emotional vegan vampire

grimes noms

i wish she would take my soul for her keeping, it is my only wish

>Which is exactly my point - Grimes makes music that - structurally speaking - from a MACRO level is thoroughly contemporary pop, but on a MICRO level is distinctly classical.
>Hence why it's game-changing.
That may explain why her music is interesting during the entire duration of her songs. Those elements at micro level add a huge variety to her songs.

a character

You only like Grimes because you want to fuck her

Is she autistic?...no like seriously..... Is she really an autist?

You are wrong.

I want to fuck every woman I see on some level, doesn't make Kill V.maim any less good.

yes

She's a musician. Why would someone like her without liking her music? That would be ridiculous.

show me your dick

That's the definition of Bjork. You're being delusional.

is this for me?

Venus Fly video has almost 2 mil views: youtube.com/watch?v=eTLTXDHrgtw

Such a visual/aural delight.

of course

you must be new here.

ever seen a kpop thread?

ever seen ANY discussion of any female artist?
90% of it is talking about if said artist is attractive.

everyones autistic apparently

>you must be new here.
>ever seen a kpop thread?
that contrast

grimes must be the other 10%

I want to be converted, suggest Grimes' best album.

How do ur friends feel about grimes

friends

Artangels and visions

Sm h ok have u showed Grimes to anybody before irll

be forced into it

no

What kind of music do you like the most? If you like pop a lot, try Art Angels. If you're an electronic fan, try Visions. If you prefer more experimental stuff, try Halfaxa. If you dig lo-fi/sparse sounding music (e.g. folk), try Geidi Primes.
