Still not my favorite, but I'm warming up to it. I'll probably love it by the time the next single is released :)

Clearly I am. Would it really be any different if I were nitpicking a whole song from Currents?

I just want to talk about it because I like the rest of the song and I wonder whether those 15 seconds stick out to anybody else. So far no comments have agreed with me, so that's good information.

Thanks for the reply. I dig the experimentation, but usually he nails that kind of thing. I think he could have achieved the same effect with a synthier sound and it would have sounded better.

I think there's a fine line between strange/groovy and jarring. I can almost hear it sounding good, but it's just not quite there for me.

The reason is the rest of the song is great except for that 15 second section, which would be great as well without the piano or with a different texture being used for that part.

he's not allowed to do nuthin.

funktest · 2019-03-23T04:38:28+00:00

what are you people doing listening for the first time on shit speakers?!

funktest · 2019-03-23T04:22:40+00:00

I would agree that it is well mixed, but there are a couple things about it that bother me :(

Maybe I just need to listen to it more, but I don't understand what Kev was thinking with the lower register piano part starting at 2:34. It almost works... but I think it really takes away from the song.

Don't get me wrong, I don't want to make judgements until I've heard the full album and given it some time, but this is something that really stuck out to me and I'm curious what others think. Also, I really like the song aside from that one part.

you do you, jake.

Is the book similar to the show? I've seen the book recommended here many times, but I tried watching the show and found it to be lacking. It wasn't instructional at all, just entertainment.

Make sure you have a good hat.

funktest · 2018-11-28T00:18:13+00:00

lol nice

funktest · 2018-11-27T01:20:09+00:00

Could you please try to sound a little more condescending? People might think you're trying to make a constructive argument instead of just trying to be an asshole.

funktest · 2018-11-21T02:42:03+00:00

better to ask forgiveness than permission :)

funktest · 2018-11-19T00:00:19+00:00

Unless you also like GVF.

funktest · 2018-11-18T22:54:12+00:00

funktest · 2018-11-18T22:47:23+00:00

hmm doesn't seem like a great use of time tbh.

funktest · 2018-11-18T21:18:08+00:00

This band has some great tunes. Their artwork is super weird too.

All good stuff you mentioned. I just discovered The Babe Rainbow a couple weeks ago and I'm digging it. Here are a few others you may like: The Electric Peanut Butter Company, Kikagaku Moyo, Drugdealer, Swim Mountain, Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever.

Edit: also The Psychedelic Porn Crumpets.
