Did you know that there's a tunnel under Ocean Blvd - Pre-Release Thread: OUT March 24th, 2023

[Venice Peach 54,293]

If A&W is that good and interesting her label is probably pushing it as a pre release single. I doubt there's anything radio friendly or mainstream on the album so they'll go with the shock value of a crazy - in a good way - track 

 

If she managed to release VB as a single A&W could be one too (unless she doesn't want to and has another song in mind)

who's ready for these "bombastic" invite songs??????

Don’t y’all notice the difference with Tunnel’s mixing?

 

Miles better than anything on BB. There’s actual attention to detail in the mixing.

I think seriously that you can’t listen to California and think the issue is the melody. It’s a gorgeous melody, gorgeous instruments, but the mixing is off. It feels like there’s a dampener on it that just stops it building. I can’t explain it but California in my eyes should’ve been her best song and unfortunately the production on it just ruins it. 

Wasn’t Cali mixed by Zach Dawes etc.?

Yeah, Tunnel is crystal clear on any system I use to listen to music. Either BB was extremely rushed, or whoever mixed it needs to be terminated and never touch another Lana record again.

The Jack hate is the result of fans wanting to blame someone for Lana’s shift toward more lyrically ambitious and less reverb heavy/dream-pop music.

 

But the truth is Jack is a great producer, especially with Lana. His production can become redundant at times but not so much with Lana.

 

Drew on the other hand… something stinks! No but seriously I think their collaboration was the result of Jack having a crazy schedule and Lana needing to find someone quickly. I didn’t like his production on BB and whoever does the mixing for their tracks isn’t good kbye.

Jack has produced some great songs, some of my favourites in fact. For me the main issue is that Jack’s production can get a bit repetitive and slightly uninspired at times especially after NFR.  She’s been with him 3 albums and has some production credits on TUOB… I know he seems to have taken more a back seat on the new record, but I think it’s time she worked with entirely new people for LDR10 who can give her a completely fresh sound even more so than TUBO.  I honestly think BB and COCC would have been far better with different producers and more instrumentation.  Over use of basic piano production isn’t very inspired or as interesting.

Laura Sisk I fear? Or if not then Leme move onto beating Zach Dawes ASS

I’m excited to see what the hype is around the second half of the record

[The Grants 13,489]

if you want to talk about a great jack produced song

whoever normally fucks up the mixing/mastering did not do it with that song

[Sportscruiser 11,894]

Can someone link me the writing credits?

[Fingertips 72,040]

Anyways, I think "Fingertips," "Candy Necklace," and "Grandfather, please stand over my father's shoulders while he deep sea fishes" will be my Ocean Blvd trifecta. 

 

What are you predicting from the tracks we know so far?

I really wanted Candy Necklace to be my fave since I have a special relationship with the snippet but Im not sure of Jon being on the song and I swear if he gets a full verse BEFORE Father John Misty I’ll go UNHINGED

kintsugi will be cuntsugi

[hotshot2am 18,781]

Apart from the interludes we have heard basically good things about almost all songs  Excluding the Bleachers collab (BoZ dislikes it, Kintsugi seems to like it) and Candy Necklace.

[terrenceszyou 1,328]

Now seriously. I'm not going to place unrealistic expectations on Did You Know (...), but I hope it's a standalone album in their career, not one of visits to previous albums. It's been reassuring to see that all teas certify this.

and Candy Necklace.

moving on from my hate towards Jon Batiste voice, do we know anything about this song? 

[Let the Light In 18,672]

Apparently track 11 or 14 will be Cherry/TJF/Cinnamon Girl of the album and I really look forward to that.

BoZ only said there's a story behind this song that he can spill in 2025, otherwise nothing positive or negative.

I'm obsessed with the haunting Fingertips melody so I know I'm going to love that one.

I'm also excited for A&W cause I love some trap beats  and I'm really curious about where Candy Necklace goes after the snippet...

I haven't listened to the samples (except the SYML track) so I don't know what to expect from the other songs tho

[American Whore 51,339]

do we know the tracklist now? where did grandpa or whatever come from?
