Has /mu/ actually attempted to listened to this album the

yes, went a listening party once
it was less than underwhelming

I did with some buddies years ago we were very high but I felt it wasnt that much better

Yeah it doesn't work. CD players weren't made to play at the exact same speed for longer than like 3 minutes.

How cluttered does it sound? I can't imagine syncing CD players is easy.

I tried once, it didn't work because >>68975399

>>68975374
Yeah, at college once using 4 macs
It was pretty good

>>68975412
It sounds very good for about a minute before you start regretting committing to it in the first place. It's basically a mess. Good songs tho if you listen to the mixdown

just rip the CDs and put the tracks together on Audacity

Flaming Lips is a fucking mistake of a band

>>68975399

You are supposed to reset the four discs after each track you dingus.

>>68977104
They go out of sync almost instantly

>>68977474
It's supped to be that way. Didn't you read the liner notes?

>>68977104
go to bed Wayne, this album was a mistake.

Why the fuck did i buy the vinyl copy?

>>68977625
Because it was on sale?

There's a pretty good surround sound mixdown, but it's fun to listen to proper even 2 or 3 discs. The challenge of getting it to sync is part of it

>>68977631
I bought it for $40. Was that a waste? I feel like it was.

>>68977667
idk I see it on sale for $25 all the time now. I almost bought it then realized how dumb it is. I have an original pressing of the CD, and that's good enough.

I'm glad I have it, but it was the biggest waste of money ever. I only have 2 record players.

>>68977708
Get some friends together. That's the point

>>68977718
eh CD would be a lot easier. Not everyone can just lug around a giant stereo system.

>>68977498
Yup I did. Doesn't make it any more functional

>>68978085
So it's not functional if a disc is one second behind?

I've listened to it properly twice, once tripping. I love it. It's messy but it's supposed to be and every time is a different experience. Setting it up is kinda fun too. I just wish it was seamless instead of having every track announce itself. Really takes you out of it.

>>68978120
Ding ding. Now you're learning

I've honestly only ever listened to mixdowns of it, but with that in mind it is definitely my favorite Flaming Lips album. Riding to Work is GOAT.

From what I understand, the original intent was that it'd be slightly or very out of sync so that each listening session is different. I mean, personally that doesn't sound like a good idea to me but I've never tried it.

The best way to listen to pic related is while having extremely slow and loud sex with your hot stoner doom gf after four bong rips each

Can't you just layer the songs on top of each other in audacity?

>>68977625
Is it just a mixdown or are there 4 LPs?
