vamos scorcho

the fact that people actually like this makes me want to slit my wrists what a extreme reaction edit: just took a quick listen, pretty boring. wrists unslit over here. I completely understand why people would like it. It's pleasant. It's also dull and not even close to novel but that doesn't give me the right to judge others for liking it. I dunno, I find the casual limited listening habits of most people lame but I don't care and certainly don't get angry over it. I would of felt like Vamos as a 19 or 20 year old, but not now. I was needlessly pissy and cynical then. Take a look around. See a new ae? Square pusher? Fsol? Hell I'd even take a Fboy slim This shit isn't ok. It's weak

the excitement finally really filled me today, past just hearing a new album by a great group. the teaser with the static is beautiful

album is like their neu 75 I've been listening to Of Montreal - Satanic Panic in the Attic. I'd forgotten about it after all their shitty music started coming out but it's still a really great pop record, with a few 10/10 songs.

101 is way too buck(wild) does anyone know if thats what he's using for bass on this track

love how people are blaming this on Pharrell who is a great producer its daft punk's fault for writing a boring ass song. it's a 4 bar loop over and fucking over. they're the ones who decided "fuck it lets just put some lyrics on top of the loop it will work" but they have little understanding of songwriting so it aint work

holy motors instant entry into some of my favorites of all time game changer in some ways also one of the scariest movies ever!!!!

1. anyone who defends the pharrell verse in itself is a tasteless moron* 2. the ending with the vocoders is fantastic as it has been since the teaser 3. it's not bad because they tried to make it a pop song (as in Rihanna/BlackEyedPeas pop), it's bad because they are probably old, tired, and lacking in creativity at this point in their lives 4. it really is lazy how the song functions with its half assed ramblings and then the sort of "fuck it just bring in the vocoder at the end" which is the only part anyone actually likes (because it's great) 5. it's not catchy for me and hasn't been stuck in my head. the hooks are not good *all this pertains only to an objective analysis of the music in and of itself from the perspective of music as a whole - I will love hearing this played out and about at parties, etc... pharrell's shitty performance and all

its the film equivalent of one of those 1,000,000 scoville hot sauces well, htat's what i'd like to say about it but actually its a decent film overall not much that be said to sum it up though. certainly depressing, and not in a trivial way. it really does kind of ruin a day or two of your life. and i'm not joking at all. it really does fuck you up, mentally and physically to a certain extent. it can detract from you. at least for a day or two. truth be told, Holy Motors is up there. damn fucking incredible 1,000,000 out of 1,000,000 movie right there

people can't figure out if this is real or fake http://soundisstyle.com/2013/04/daft-punk-get-lucky-feat-pharrell-nile-rodgers.html

im in pretty strong agreement that this pharrell shit is not a good sign i also agree with lopez to a certain extent but I'm not on or off any "hype train" bottom line for me: major thumbs down to Pharrell verse and not a good sign

i had really strong feelings that this would be awesome based on the short clips but after hearing that pharrell verse my expectations have changed somewhat drastically haha not a fan of that bit still have generally positive feelings about the whole thing though

my generation is no better or worse than most tracks on the album imo its a cover but he takes it apart in a very interesting way so i dk truth be told though i haven't listened for a week... fucking love strom and the last track, brilliant work of course the others songs are good too but those are the highlights for me

1. I've lost 60 lbs the past year and have 20 more to go before I am the most attractive person of all time (but seriously, I feel good about myself for the most part, and I need reminding that this is a stellar acheivement of a great man. no seriously, good job. I have dedication and I also know how to do things well! Losing that much weight requires things most people will never understand, and hence I am now also holding knowledge most people are unaware of, perhaps attained through deaths of grandparents) [[[[NOTE: what this meant was that I attained knowledge of pain, self hatred, misery, aloneness, that most people probably have gained through deaths in the family. I have never faced having a really close person die so that is still foreign to me, I sometimes wonder if that is why I have trouble getting along with humorless people]]] 2. I made an excellent chili that, after making the top 10 or so chilis on Allrecipe, is superior! I could win a damn chili cookoff with my own damn recipe! 3. I put a fried egg on it 4. I started learning to see past the surface level of my comments, facial expressions, attire, and modes ("I could win a damn chili cookoff with my own damn recipe" [kill the invalid] + avatar + movements) and realized that my innate superiority is not something to be taken lightly. We all have this, it just so happens that I had a difficult upbringing and I have various confusions, I don't really care what you think, we'd all get along if people knew the truth about "I" which is just that... well, basically I need to make it easier for people to love me. I have a hardcore dictionary of information waiting to be tapped by the most beautiful girl in the world, a 6/10 to the rest but a 10/10 to me, a lovely fluid dynamic "bird" as they say. I can dance with/better than the best of them, I can talk about stars and do great poetry of the linguistics. I am not goofy. I can drive a car and make an amazing chili with fried eggs on top. I have expensive musical equipment for a person my age. I have amazing taste. I am well read, better than 99% of the people I automatically assume to be better and more normal than myself who I also assume to be more attractive. BUZZER! incorrect! I am the shit! I should love myself! I love myself now. But who can learn love without parents of that type? The derangement, alcohol, poison seeping. I'm here, now, with y'all. 5. Selfhood 6. cleaned apartment 7. album coming along. I put on my own music last night and tore off the cobwebs of self-hatred and self-denial and started dancing in front of the mirror, and I realized that what I am working on is the future of music. And if that hadn't have happened, I would have just sat in bed getting more and more depressed. It's amazing the duality of experience, black to white. 8. It's all in your mind, in my mind. Everything. It's what you want to be, be it, know how to be it. Knowledge how = knowledge that. Virtuoso piano players and artists are probably the same. I completely 100% lack certain communicative social characteristics, such as knowing how to work and understand others. I am sorry. I am here, with warmth, and various gifts of selfhood but I don't really know how to socialize so please forgive me. I'm not good at the back and forth. I am working on it with the "knowledge that"

i got pissed at myself for not talking to this girl i like in one of my classes and also started bordering on a complete downfall of the mindside (I've been in what doctors might call a mixed state all day, up and down, it's really quite painful honestly) but then i picked myself up with an abundance mentality against oneitis and said "lets be whats great" and i started walking to the library and actually the same girl crossed my path and i kept walking like i didn't see anything. haha. for another time. i feel like I'm in 6th grade again and I won't lie, it's a very good feeling. Nothing but puppy paws and shit here. (at the same time I am vigilant in overcoming non-abundance mentality) but after that I was in the library for 3 hours trying to type this paper and the fucking computer wouldn't work. I felt like my mind was literally draining out of my ears. everything was sped up and fucking glitching on the computer, I never have noticed ADD so prevalent. everyone was pissing me off. then I went to another class and... seriously, I've never felt so on the verge of completely fucking up in public. I kept hearing the teacher's voice and being on the verge of cracking up hysterically or just barging out of the class because of... weird things.

Nuclear Jazz is a compilation of two of their early albums, it's the one to go with.

i'm fine with "my generation." its cool might be better without it though i still find the last track to be the best thing ever

I will say that "Strom" is possibly the only time I've heard vox used as bassline

I'm with you on aoty pretty much. every song is good. the last track is incredible

me love senor coconut fo sho his website has some crazy shit on it you guys have to ... HAVE TO ... check out Flanger. they did some mindblowing stuff very similar to Squarepusher. on exactly the same level. higher, debatable. I've got the damn POP_H_D bit stuck in my head this morning

the fact is that [*GOOD*] pop is a lot harder to make a lot of the time than straight up techno and whatever both have their place but I agree... pop requires something beyond technical know-how this album has both, as do most great works haven't gotten to into this beyond "Strom" yet though but that track is great I'm sure the guy has great stuff hiding in the cracks that I haven't heard yet though on other albums

haven't seen season 2 of girls. i look forward to it but can see it going up or down. i'm a sucker for well written romantic entertainment with mild elements of intellectual stuff mixed in. major sucker. way better than sex in the city. just make the artist types fuck the hot girls more, i like those parts. I need a good show to watch on Netflix. I think I'm going to watch the original British House of Cards tonight. also something I've been thinking... if people are really like those people in Girls, the world is going nowhere. there will be no new Aphex Twin, no new nothing. I'll watch this as well. looks good according to the reviews there and I have very little doubt that I'll end up watching all of it.

at least other shows about other things I can't relate to, series about British aristocrats or Italian-American mobs, or zombies, substantive things happen to characters you give at least somewhat give a shit about I didn't hate the one episode Girls I caught part of but just the general premise kind of miffs me meh i both love and am confounded by why WATMM has zero ability to understand Girls. I came around to it. great show watched all of House of Cards the last week... great show but the last 4th petered off ... felt like they stretched like 5 episodes over 2 or 3 episodes worth of story I have hopes that it improves... pretty fucking crazy show honestly. it does some great things just needs a little more character and consistency and core. the three cs

my favorite autechre album at the moment. it transcends the genre its the bitches brew of idm pretty much i don't even know the only problem is that our brains in 2013 are so accostumed to being able to shit all over something and pass on that we really don't know how to handle something this great
