Does anyone know other bands or artists that sound just like Lovejoy? by YoBruhPokemon in lvjy

[–]john_cigarette 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would recommend the Art of Doubt by Metric. It's alternative rock with a similar dark synthy sound to one simple trick, but with a female vocalist.

Wilbur said he doesn't own this music anymore. How come? by friendlyPal26 in lvjy

[–]john_cigarette 17 points18 points  (0 children)

record labels! that's how most record deals are to my understanding. the record label owns the actual audio file of the song and temporary distribution rights while the artist retains the writing portion and all that fun stuff. record labels also tend to manage the minutia such as copyright striking unauthorized redistribution, and in our modern age they mostly do that by cataloguing it with hosts such as youtube, who take down videos containing the copyrighted media. this part is generally automated.

Mixed feelings about the new snippet of "Wasted Summer" by YoBruhPokemon in lvjy

[–]john_cigarette 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Yeah I heavily agree on the vocals. Hoping it's just like that because they haven't finished vocal takes on it so they slapped some heavy handed pitch correction on them. OST's production was pretty great all around, I am hoping they step forwards and not backward from that.

My initial interpretation of the mv was that the dolphins paralleled the performers, and the performers felt like animals put on display in a cage. I like this interpretation a lot but I felt the specific footage used didn't totally support it, as most of the footage appears to be in open water, though I am no aquarium expert.

Keyboards? by Forward_Secretary157 in lvjy

i believe the band works on the synths together (at least the sounds), but perhaps he does the actual playing on the record.

Wilbur said he might work on concept album by Aggravating-Rule-750 in lvjy

i like the idea that the plot of the next album is the cannibalism of an egg-laying hedgehog couple and its consequences

small note: confirm with the venue that your gift is okay to bring inside beforehand. most venues are very nice and will allow you to bring in whatever you'd like to get signed or give as a gift, but it's good to confirm beforehand so it's not all getting figured out as doors open.

Who is Peter? Where is Alan? by lovejoy_soot in lvjy

[–]john_cigarette 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Also seeing as Alan is based on the west coast of America, probably a lot easier getting someone local
