She's So Unusual [Portrait, 1983]

Initially, this blue angel won my heart by covering the two most profound pop songs of the past five years, "Money Changes Everything" and "When You Were Mine." Now, with "Girls Just Want to Have Fun" the official pep song of the daughters of Ms. and Pepsi-Cola and "Time After Time" throbbing hearts by the millions, I've softened my strictures about her Betty Boop bimboism--if a kook who's loved, respected, and taken seriously by her sisters fools boys into believing she can be fooled with, more power to her. First side's an eternal classic. Second sneaks by on the one where she kisses me and the one where she diddles herself. A

True Colors [Portrait, 1986]

Cheap sentiment plus star-budget video make the first side so disheartening that the second isn't much more than a relief. Just as the sensitive relationship songs retreat from the perils of triads and the pleasures of jerking off, "What's Going On" is a nostalgic generalization after the first album's confrontation with capital. Girls just want to have money--and no fun changes everything. B-

A Night to Remember [Epic, 1989]

Can you believe she's talking this one up as a triumph of self-expression (meaning "personal" songs, like that Kodak ad) over spiritual adversity (meaning commercial shortfall)? How embarrassing to have placed hope in this woman. And how sad to compare the bold finds and off-the-wall vulgarity of the only good album she'll ever make to this bigtime pop--a parameter stretched not an iota by songs about one's very own breakup, not to mention strokes as prudently defiant as the lyric about not being a pet, which was probably Christina Amphlett's idea anyway.

Any of the Grimes threads.

There are plenty of threads that are as bad as can be.

This one

I prefer violin as it works well for a lot more different styles, but it really depends on the style of music you want to make

>>71945704
Violin. Easily. Sax kinda loses its luster without other engaging instrumentation to back it up.

>>71945727
I've heard the same thing about the violin though, they said that to play violin I need to join an orchestra otherwise the violin is boring Is that true or just bs?

>>71945661
There are some who have mastered the vocal chords as much as this guy but to my experience none that make melodies as beautiful

>>71945661
Liz Fraser of Cocteau Twins is a pretty damn good vocalist, not sure if better than this dude since i don't understand much about vocals tho

did he give his eyebrows to the devil for that voice?

How long did it take you to start actually enjoying Death Grips and what album do you like the most?

>>71945745
4 years/the money store

>>71945745
Literally over six years. I'm still struggling to transcend beyond my corporeal form and assimilate into the NOIDED dimension. Jesus FUCKING christ

There's a lot. Jurassic 5, digable planets, tribe called quest, de la soul, camp lo, cypress hill. I'm probably forgetting some. The early 90s alternative hip hop scene has produced a lot of good stuff. De la soul is probably the best of that style.

Thanks. I got most of the old school stuff on there. Soldier of Love is miscategorized. Looking for slept on stuff or less popular stuff too.

>>71976691
he was aight. nice even. still...lightweight next to pac though.

I guess he would prefer lofi amateur recording, which is a pretty valid opinion.

He means he thinks it's overproduced and too sanitary

>>71945464
he does this with every band that's remotely proggy or metal, if it doesn't sound like it was recorded in a shack he hates it. it's a pretty fucking annoying opinion but you can't really argue with taste so whatever
