Echo is pure Broadcast LARP

Kind of a whatever album overall though, nothing that leaves too much of an impression

do you miss my hands hanging on the back of your neck?

whole album is so fuzzy thank you for the summer soundtrack

Album should've been called "The Bounce Back" because god damn she did so in an impressive way

this album is hitting so crazy with the heavy rain rn

this album f***in blew me away man. listening to this while doing chores around the house with the summer weather… vibes were through the roof

glory of the snow is the one for me dawg, that piano loop is so satisfying

warmest sonics, love it

this def better than sling

Add Up My Love song of the summer I’m afraid

Wow this is great album. this is type of album i wanted from her since her last album. i think she delivered

Delusion

I read that this album was recorded live on a***og tape. Anyone know if there any special reason that they did this way? Since it’s mostly digital recording techniques that use nowadays.

Gives the songs recorded on tape a warm vintage texture. Not as clean as microphones going into a software like pro tools but quality downsides end up actually giving it the vintage sound. Similar with directors wanting to shoot on film despite it being less clear, harder and more expensive than digital.

You can get pretty close with digital effects but there’s a flavour to tape that is special

Adrienne Lenker, Mac Demarco etc have talked about recording live on a***og tape and loving it. Wouldn’t be surprised if that Silk Sonic album was all a***og too

It also forces you have to be really tight with performing and being able to record the song in one take with a band which I’m sure people like, as a way to freshen things up when making another album.

I didn’t know about clairo using tape but you can definitely tell on Juna s*** is so warm. Straight out of the 70s

Wow thanks for explaining. this was nice read always like to read about this type of behind the scene stuff.

Imma check some Adrienne or Mac videos. thanks for the names

i kinda like this way it feel fresh live

in that link it says " NY. Producer Michels, a renowned soul revivalist who boasts work with funk legend Sharon Jones and The Black Keys, was enlisted to lead the strictly-analogue recording process"

alvvays’ last album was also recorded like this, you can definitely hear it in the texture here as well

Lemme check that one out. its Blue rev album right?

yessir!

Thanks

i see kismet sinking in 🙂‍↔️
