    It looks like a vintage 45 rpm vinyl cover. Love this effect

    Secret project is just music related.
    haven’t heard anything upbeat for the album

    There’s nothing to reveal rn… Henry as a single doesn’t even make sense.
    it’s like choosing change as LFL lead

    Drew also worked with Angel Olsen and Mitski on their latest albums, which have strong country and folk elements. And, yes, his work with Father John Misty on his latest album is extremely impressive, and I'm a big fan of his arrangements and production on the Ocean Blvd tracks. 
     
    Let The Light In is the type of laid-back lyrically straight-forward/simple and melodically rich track that might be an indication of Drew's work on The right person will stay, given that we aren't getting super wordy songs like Fingertips (or even Arcadia, a poem that turned into a song) this time around.

    Drew Erickson produced Father John Misty's new album and the melodies are beautiful. I would love a production like that.

    born to die was written off for being too different at the time, at the point of mockery
    paradise became her most famous work for a long time for it's quality and how it intersected w culture at the time. 
    ultraviolence vindicated her 
    honeymoon cemented herself as a true star albeit still an enigma 
    lust for life was for the fans 
    nfr was a resurgence of magic surrounding her music 
    chemtrails was when she began to open up, or at least consider it. 
    blue banisters had us all thinking about who Elizabeth was more, than Lana
    Ocean Blvd felt like a more cerebral LFL, similar to how they both seem like they could be anthologies of themes/ bodies of work as such. candy necklace glimpsed us into more of an active, dynamic sound again. it was refined, precise and polished. 

    she escaped the EDM(?) genre even if she kinda dabbled in remixes etc. ie. she didn't become pop to be pop. she paved her own way. 
    LFL seemed aged at the time of it's release, but aged well overall in sound. despite fans being confused af about it then. 
    chemtrails was beginning to be loved 2 albums into and after it's release. 
    some are only beginning to understand that nfr was about the kind of damage sociopathy can do to a person, a country and the kind of invisible pain it can cause. 
    blue banisters still gets a lot of flack bc fans are honestly bored of her overall sound direction or lack thereof, not willing to understand it's strength lies in it's very resilience and it's softness - counterpoint to the norms of bravado. strength of it literally having answers to much disdain from external forces that wish to've molded it's direction. strength vs. power 

    I personally don't really care or prefer not to bother cus music listening can be a subjective experience where it can all feel valid and to an extent is, but the point is. 

    if it's been so many times before that she's wanted to keep doing things her way, and also the fact that for most, it takes this long for some to understand, why the eager close-minded mindsets when you can just let things be, feel it out and think about the bigger picture about this whole thing of her artistry? 

    everyone's talking about an invitation, but for a lot, it seems like a burden to go. it's kinda giving dysfunctional and bored. 
    but who's problem is that really? 


    I personally don't really like country. there's little to what I can relate to it, in terms of the world of it but. we all know she'll have something for us to explore into. 
    everyone just seems uneasy, and the communication of the record's definitely not the best. but just relax ya know. 
    you don't have to be burdened by it so much.

  11. Unidentified Major Tom liked a post in a topic by Lindsay Lohan in Larry Jackson speaks on getting Lana Del Rey on SNL & signing her to Interscope   
    I think it was touched on like once in the past a very long time ago
     
    I mentioned it in a thread 2 months ago so this is so cool to know that it hasn't been a forgotten fact... though a little misleading because though she wasn't signed with Sony, she had a deal with them and had a lot of sessions under them (late 2010-mid 2011), I believe this was just for her to work more and bring new music into them to potentially sign her but they weren't feeling anything she was doing. Then Video Games blew up and Sony probably wanted to sign her then but she was like nah and went to Interscope
     
    There was a guy at Sony who was in love with Lana (thought she was hot) and opened up closed studios just for her to record free stuff  queen shit...

    Larry Jackson speaks about getting Lana Del Rey on SNL & signing her to Interscope! 
     https://open.spotify.com/episode/7F3Xomh64jZibxbLuOhXuw?si=ca2f46102e8c4f75
     
    Larry speaks about A&R and how amazing Lana Del Rey is! he helped sign her to Interscope and get her the SNL deal. calls her initially as "ah Lizzy" 
    Larry and his pal John Ehmann were fired from SONY Music. John Ehmann said Larry should listen to a demo called "Diet Mtn Dew" by an artist named Lana, who Sony just passed on.  
    Larry loved it! 
    says he met Lana 2 months after he himself moved to Los Angeles. she came in looking like she had walked off the set of the BTD album cover! Lol. he was enthralled by her. 
    Says the night before she signed w/Interscope, she got a deal from SONY UK for 2 times as much money, and she said No! and signed the next day with Interscope !!!! (our queen) 
    Larrys says lana means so much to him and Interscope. He says at that point he was willing to help her do anything to help her artistic vision come to life (especially understanding that 2 times amount Sony offered was a big deal to a artist trying to make ends meet) 
    He says she told him she wanted to be "Gangsta Nancy Sinatra" and he was sold! Ed/Ben/Lana signed officially and INterescope helped them make BTD with Emile Haynie and Justin Parker. 
    BTD cost only $183,000. 
    says he got an idea to write a letter to Jimmy Iovine to send to Lorne Michael of SNL about getting Lana on. 
    Discussed how being an A&R is about believing in the vision when no one else does. Says the Brian Williams article was very hurtful to him and to lana (bc at the time Brian Williams was a respected journalist - which is funny now because he got fired and lost journalistic integrity for fabricating a story about jumping out of a plane in the Iraq war in 2003 _ LOL did "did anyone else die for you") 
     
    Larry talks a bit more about how she and Chief Keef at such important musical figures who have shaped music and provided a breath of fresh air to a time of stagnant music. 
     
    Larry says he felt extremely motivated after SNL and so did Lana.
