The actual song is, contrary to popular belief, not silent. I don't know how it fuckin works, but sometimes when you play the album or the track specifically, you'll hear the robot lady chant kill and the backwards coordinates.
If you want to know what it symbolically meant, "Tathagatagarbha" essentially allows every living being has the possibility to attain buddhahood, fitting with the highly religious themes of the album.
Because buddhahood is about being enlightened, maybe Tathagatagarbha is the ability to notice that the track isn't 23 seconds of silence like most think, à la enlightenment.
Or C.C just wants to fuck with people, who knows.

song i was talking about was love vigilantes. forgot to mention it.

>>70763975
this is good

>>70769300

I'm going to follow this up with some reasoning:

Ten's full of really distinct, memorable tracks and rhythms. Dose and Yoni's often surreal lyricism is delivered with lots of novel interplay and syncopation that I find really rewarding to anticipate now that I've memorized the songs.

The production captures a foggy, 'olden days' sound (see Rifle Eyes) that I find evocative of old books, unpolished brass and early skyscrapers. There's also a lot of varied instrumentation (dental drills, vocoders, harmoniums) that helps keep each track distinct. Odd Nosdam is a great beatmaker and arranger.

Songs like Son of a Gun and Physics of a Unicycle feature a recurring lyrical motif that aids the cohesion of the album. Despite its ambition and vision, I like the fact that this is an album written by three nerds in some claustrophobic apartment who were just trying to do something different in indie hip-hop.

Audio engineer here. I can explain.

It's actually part deliberate obfuscation, part happy accident. Clarence Clarity made the robot lady's voice really quiet. So quiet, in fact, that human ears probably won't pick it up unless those ears belong to a baby. That's all he did. He just made the track super quiet.
Now, Spotify has an algorithm to prevent this kind of stuff from happening. When you play the entire record, it keeps all of the tracks at their natural volume. However, when you choose tracks specifically (e.g. play Tathagatagharbha immediately without listening to the rest of the record), it will blast the song until the sound is loud enough for you to hear loud and clear. This means sometimes the track will be "silent" (but really just super quiet), and other times the track will be loud enough for you to actually hear it. Clarity wanted it to be quiet until someone manually amplified the track on their own, but Spotify ruined the surprise by doing it automatically.
It's an unintentional glitch/feature/exploit of Spotify's volume adjustment algorithms, but it fit's Clarence's aesthetic, so it's pretty cool either way.

(If you're using Google Play or Apple Music, it might not do it, so you'll just have to sit in a quiet place like a closet, turn it up all the way, and listen closely.)

>>70774597
