"Violet Bent Backwards Over the Grass" Spoken Word Poetry Album - Post-Release Discussion Thread + Poll

[American Whore 51,089]

this is so frustrating omg

 

 

 

:lmao:

 

for real i don't want links sent to me or anyone getting in trouble (myself included) but I feel so jipped bc I just simply want it in my iTunes perfectly named and ugh i'm so sad rn

it’d frustrate me to no end too, it’s small but it’d just be nicer to have it with the rest of her albums in the same place

 

this is exactly my problem thank you for putting it into words better

[Mer 61,208]

it's not her fault, i mean i'm just picky and want to have things exactly perfect in my iTunes, i'm a little ocd about audio files

 

actually wait i jut realized since you are actually the owner of the audio files from iBooks, and theyre not locked like streaming files, you should be able to drop it into iTunes

Why are there two audiobooks on Apple Books and why is one so expensive, I literally don’t know which one I should buy, the 8,99$ one or the 16,99$ one

[Mer 61,208]

oops just saw ur most recent post never mind  @hydroponicweeds

[99centlips 8,519]

like i'm simply frustrated bc it's all one single file and I don't know how to split it up and actually NAME the tracks myself. if anyone knows, please tell me and I'll do it myself if I have to

try downloading a free tag editor...not sure if it’ll work but worth a try.

8.99 is the audiobook, 16.99 is the ebook!

maybe I can try that. but I'll have to know exactly the correct time stamps so i'll have to listen through and find where they all stop (or do math with the time stamps given from other sites that idk if they are 100% accurate)

Not sure how accurate they are but the wikipedia page for the project has the timestamps

this could help!!! thank you so much. i'll update you all on my journey of trying to make this into an actual iTunes album.....

Thank you so much! It’s quite expensive for an ebook, I am shocked

[Rorman Nockwell 56,493]

Yeah tbh I think she should split the next one into separate tracks .... 39 minutes of intense subject matter in one file just seems so daunting idk 

[American Whore 51,089]

Yall I downloaded fucking AVS Audio Editor to be able to split the fucking file and here it tells me "this audio file is protected!"

I've been getting the same error with everything I've tried so far. Audacity is supposed to allow you to open the file with an extension but the protection error is there too so clearly that method is outdated.

jlksdlsa damn

[Fingertips 72,034]

Yup, Paradise is Very Fragile is the best. I have chills

As long as there is no way to properly buy it outside of the apple/ibook store and the overpriced CD/vinyl/cAsSetTe which ship in october, I'm going to pass.

 

I hope they make a huge loss on this so they decide to handle it better next time

 

I was really intrigued to listen to it, but the way they completely fucked up the rollout ruined it for me

[TheBoss 13,477]

I love this project, her words really shine! The best american writer of our generation did that

The dramatics over a LITERARY project, not a MUSIC album. The only valid complaint you have is that the poems aren't labeled 

 

[Mer 61,208]

$9 for an artist you chose to join a forum for is “overpriced”? It’s cheaper than a burrito! And will provide u with so much more pleasure
