    The drum syncopation on Black Bathing Suit is very strange. The melody is like this very straight forward pop melody and then the drums are like this jazzy abstract break beat thing that just sounds broken and jittery. The drums are definitely very complicated, but I can’t tell if they are right or not. Something sounds off about them and I can’t tell if it’s some perfectly imperfect drum pattern that will eventually click for me, or if it’s just complex but sloppy. I think I need more listens to determine if I these are very advanced and precise polyrhythms, or if the rhythm is actually off. What does everyone think?

    (I dunno of this is exactly what ur asking but) I think It sounds off because the verses and chorus are completely different melodies than each other, and the post-chorus is an entirely different tempo than both. it's like 3 ideas for different songs mashed together into one. It's very, very experimental but certainly an intriguing approach. Personally, I like it. Text Book is the same way. The chorus is an entirely different tempo than the verses.

     

    Something thats really interesting ab this project is the way a lot of the songs are written, it's not always clear what is a verse, pre-chorus, post-chorus, or hook. It's part of the reason I think that this record sounds so different than her previous work, along with the quirky, experimental production.

    I'd love to know what her thought process was in making this record, maybe part of this project being sort of "unpolished" sounding in comparison to other albums is breaking out of expectations and industry-imposed standards.

    That was intentional. Listen and picture something burning, imagine the crackling of fire through the drums

    Like the others baby burn, burn, burn :crying5:

    if it was "intentional" they just caused an aural discomfort because that part sounds horrible.

    I mean that's what happens when you recruit Mike "synth-god" dean to produce a piano ballad. Mans was a fish out of water.

    The one previously leaked song I wish would have made it is Fine China. I love that song. Sounds like such a classic.

    honestly i think it could have replaced for free on chemtrails.  it has sort of similar sentiments about wealth and prominence that fit really well onto the themes of cocc. not sure it would fit as well on bb but i suppose we'll see!
