  5. pre-order said "expected to ship out late december" and merch is almost always delayed, especially with corona and christmas / new year i bet theyll start shipping in the next 2-3 weeks
  6. aaa i was waiting for the Weeds demo to leak, idk what she thought when she changed the chorus
  7. ive already seen several people "joking" about Clayton breaking her arm so, yeah... i see why
  8. https://dbree.org/v/936201 https://dbree.org/v/fe6938 https://dbree.org/v/0a257b this is literally all there is
  9. for the most part, its just the producers showing how/with which plugin they created a certain sound, drums etc. which is only interesting if you produce music yourself tbh im glad kieron talked quite a bit about lana, more than jack at least
  10. i love jack as a producer, but his mixing is... so bad. not just lana, taylor as well he seems to put so much effort and so many details in his productions, only to compress them all until you cant hear any of them any longer. theyre in the pre-chorus and chorus, yep
  11. Bonjour hoes So, a while back I actually bought access to that Mix with the Masters website. Both Kieron Menzies and Jack Antonoff had videos about Lana, in Kieron's case about High By The Beach and for Jack it was about Mariners Apartment Complex and The Greatest. I decided to write down some of the more interesting stuff they said about Lana, since I haven't seen anyone else sharing this before: High By The Beach HBTB started with the chorus It was made when they were about halfway through the recording process, in the summer of 2015 Lana usually comes in with an idea, and Rick plays the piano trying to find the right chords (as seen in the Change video Lana posted back in 2017) Lana wrote the rest of the lyrics the same day they recorded the song The hip-hop vibes were Lana's idea All of Lana's vocals on the Honeymoon album were recorded with a U87 microphone. It was an extremly old mic Rick found somewhere in a closet of his and they never used it because it always sounded so bad, but they thought the trashy, lo-fi feel of it suited the Honeymoon tracks because it had the right amount of "dirt and brokenness" Lana usually does not record her vocals in the vocal booth, but in the control room with speakers on, which is the reason why there's always so much bleeding from the instrumental on her acapellas No autotune on Lana's vocals They call the outro a "poem". Lana wrote it after they had the idea for the music video and it was specifically written with the MV in mind. During the HM production process, recording, producing and mixing was all pretty much happening at the same time, rather than producing the song and mixing it at a later date. Lana was involved in every step of the album making process, from writing, producing, mixing and mastering it. Lana's mindset is "this is her vision, [...] this is what she wanted to hear". A lot of the mixing choices on Honeymoon were Lana's call Kieron says he thought the beat shouldve been brighter and hotter, but Lana said she doesn't like it, and he thinks they ended up with a more natural sound that way The Greatest Lana and Jack usually write songs by Jack playing on his guitar and Lana singing over it The Greatest started with the chorus chord progression Jack added flutes and horns because the song feels like a "death march" for the culture They were figuring the song out as they were going There's 40 vocal tracks in the final song They wanted it to feel like Lana is singing in a bar Lana's voice was supposed to feel like its the glue holding the entire album together, which is why its so "on top" of the instrumentals Mariners Apartment Complex There was no chorus at first, Lana started with the verses Jack thought it would be called "I'm Your Man" Again, Lana and Jack record in the same room, she's singing, he's playing the guitar The end of the song is a homage to Venice Bitch with the trippy guitars coming in
  12. i'll use this as an opportunity to link to my favorite ATRL thread: https://atrl.net/forums/topic/211217-sky-ferreiras-masochism-a-timeline/
  13. if this is not coming tomorrow, im predicting a Violet style release sometime in the summer with physical copies tbh
  14. maybe lana announcing the COCC preorder + single was a way of compensating us for not releasing this album lmao
  15. Weeds first verse is a discography highlight, only for marina to ruin it with that ugly chorus.... a hate crime
  16. looks like a SERVE but honestly idk how to feel about the mesh mask cuz a) its gonna look so dated by 2022 and b) ppl are gonna dig up the mesh mask barnes & noble disaster to drag her
  17. i liked this a lot this performance felt more like... well, an actual performance, and less like a music video
  18. worst case scenario is the "performance" being the Summertime mv imo i can deffo see that happening
