Let's discuss peacefully about this music genius, Claire Boucher known as Grimes.

Newzsz:
Watch this visual masterpiece, Venus Fly: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eTLTXDHrgtw (close to 1 mil. views)

>hey yall -- i'm really vibing on this charity "hope project" that provides education to refugees --- english sports maths life skills science and creative arts in greece. their goal is to raise enough money for a years rent on a space for sessions and setup costs. @hopeprojectnet

>almost finished building like 20 or so 5D multi timbral synths in roli equator, they'll be released for roli blocks later this year. never made synths from scratch before, its pretty fun
Video with her playing a mean jam: https://www.instagram.com/p/BP6JQUMjSd_/

Grimes produced a new Aristophanes song, Humans Become Machines: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BHmVqMISPLw If you don't know, Aristophanes is that Taiwanese rapper that performed on SCREAM.

Remember: be nice to Grimes!

>>71250234
Kinda. She posted 2 pics on her IG to promote a charity project (see her shirt). Like I needed other reasons to like her, she's so generous and nice...
>>
why is she so obsessed with "yall" lately

also have you noticed she's been acting more and more like a hippie? like look at her in 2010, i recall her cringing and saying "I really hate to use the word, but for lack of a better term I really vibe..." or something like that in an interview.

i have a few theories, most of them revolve around the idea that since AA came out she's distanced herself personally from her fans and created a public persona that is far removed from herself. smart move, imo, but i dont want to pretend to know if shes being fake or not.

she's mentioned before how she has to sanitize herself so that everything she says is positive.

>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eTLTXDHrgtw
>Listen to the bass drum part starting at 1:18 and notice how it gets tuned down by an octave in frequency (despite the fact that it is a usually a pitchless effect) at 1:26 before being brought back up a minor 7th and then a whole step back to it's original frequency, thereby forming a miniature melodic line in tune with the rest of the song.
>
>Stuff like this happens in her music all the time. Single percussive sounds that have a uniform rhythmic purpose have their melodic properties emphasized and then their pitches tweaked in order to add an extra melodic layer of interest to what's going on.

Because she likes that expression. In general Grimes writes in the same way she speaks.

Come on. Don't pretend that you're acting like yourself when speaking in public. You put "the official mask" on, right? Why do you expect her to speak casually (she did that for many years but she learned a thing or two about PR from Roc Nation) when you wouldn't even dare to do that?

>Pitchfork: Who's the woman with the pink braids, Brooke Candy?
>CB: I played a show in L.A. a few months ago, and I saw her at a party. She looked so cool that I was like, "OK, I'm just going to move to L.A. because that person has the best style I've ever seen in my life." So I moved to L.A. for a couple of weeks and I ran into her at a party pretty much on the first day. I was just like, "Dude, you have the most star power of any person I've ever met. I need to make a music video and I need you to drive it as a character."
>I don't have any money to hire actors. I just need to get people who are going to do a good job being themselves. Brooke Candy was the first person I found. It was all about her.
>Pitchfork: What's her background?
>CB: She's like a very contemporary muse: People make outfits for her, do her hair, take pictures with her, have her host things. She's like the Ryan Seacrest of indie culture; she's extremely magnetic. Whenever she's in a room, you just feel everyone being pulled towards her. She's also really comfortable with herself, which is key. Sometimes you find people who are magnetic, but once they get in front of a camera, they freak out and get weird. But she performs all the time. She's super powerful and aggressive, but really warm at the same time. That's a really good line to walk. You might be kind of afraid of her, but you still want to be around her. She's very kind in real life.

I think I've read that on an interview. The thing is she didn't mention her anymore after 2012.
>>
>One thing I'm not sure I like when it comes to criticisms of the album -- I swear I can handle negative opinions, this is just a thought -- is that people have claimed she's gone too pop or too Top 40. Listening to this album, I struggle to hear anything outside of maybe 'Flesh Without Blood' on a particularly daring college pop station getting any sort of spin. Catchy melodies and production flourishes that touch on '90s rock guitars aren't exactly Top 40 these days. I've read some saying that 'Venus Fly' would fit in on the pop charts these days, and it kind of boggles the mind; where is this Top 40?? Can I get in on that one?

When she did that tour I wondered if there was much crossover between Grimes and Lana del Rey fans. Maybe I wrongly assumed that Lana's fans would "get" Grimes.

>Grimes produced a new Aristophanes song, Humans Become Machines

>You first collaborated with Grimes on her 2015 album and now she's produced "Humans Become Machines" for your record. How did you two work together on the song?
>I wrote and recorded the lyrics for "Humans Become Machines" during the same time as "Scream,” but we were focused on “Scream” then. Last summer when I was in New York City and working on new music, we started working on this song again, and Claire changed everything of the production. When I heard the new version I was totally mind-blown, therefore both of us were passionate about this new collaboration. So when I went to Los Angeles, we recorded my vocal again at her place. That's was the first time we worked together physically and it was so much fun! Claire is so smart and sensitive to the texture and details of my voice, which is really impressive to me. After that, she recorded her vocal and finished the whole production.

I liked the vid and I think it's kind of like a jumping off point art project, albeit highly polished, essentially the end of the Art Angels era for Grimes. She said it's time for a break so we'll just have to wait and see what's next. She hinted at something slower but not boring. ?

The point of a general thread is to have discussion just about Grimes. When she's posted in other threads, she's posted because it's related to the OP's post. e.g. Who is the artist of this decade? or Post the best albums released in 2015. Is it on topic? Yes. Then stop whining.

You seem like an obsessed and stubborn kind of dude. Why don't you spend these energies into trying to get into her music? Maybe you will understand why some people like her so much and bonus, you will enjoy some great music.

Actually no. You're quite obviously one of the attention-seeking spergs who unfortunately frequents this place. Quit whining about other people talking about things you don't like and go do something useful with yourself - like talking about something that you DO liek in a thread where the topic is appropriate.

Why do you act like troll? Really, you could listen to her music unironically and start liking it. Trust me, even a troll like you could enjoy it. There's a huge amount of beauty in her music. Leave your hate and bias behind and be mroe open minded.

Ok. Have you already listened to any of her albums, or do you need suggestions for where to start? For this to work, you've gotta be familiar with her music before you can start critiquing it.

Anon, you have yet to mention anything specific about Grimes' music ITT. All you have talked about so far is yourself and how YOU feel affected by the discussion of her that typically happens on /mu - which has nothing directly to do with her music. Stop focusing on yourself so much and start actually talking about her music. Then we can start to play ball.

>>71267742

That's not fucking enough. AT ALL. It took me over half a year just to like her voice. If you don't have the patience to listen to her discograhy at least 3 times, I'm afraid you will never get into her music. You will remain a sad frustrated troll, like you're now.

You listened once to 10 songs and claimed you really hate her music. It doesn't work like that. First, you must get a taste of her music, you must be accustomed to it. If you don't like synthpop, you have to "work" harder. You have to force it against your music prejudices.

Some of the most rewarding music requires some effort from the listener. See Loveless as an example.

Of course, you idiot. To like all her music you must have a knowledge of synthpop, IDM, dreampop, classical, R&B, alternative rock, even some industrial. Do you even know these genres? Or are you a mad Kanye fan?
>>
>>71268160
>I listened to 10 songs. It was fucking plenty dude.
NOT. AT. ALL. How many times did you listen to them? Once? Her music is diverse, maybe you picked the wrong songs to get into her music. What music do you like? Maybe I could recommend you some Grimey songs, I'm an expert in her discography.

If you're not willing to try, no one could help you. And believe me, the Grimesians are generally very helpful when it comes to recommendations. Stay a sad troll if that's your modus operandi. But don't complain about this little community.

No. You could enjoy it even if you know nothing about music. But if you want to really understand it, you had to listen to some diverse music in your life. Her music is VERY eclectic. It's pop only on the surface.

That "dreadful Frankenstein pastiche" is absolutely magnificent once you get into her music. That makes her music endlessly enjoyable. Many Grimesfans could confirm that her music simply refuses to get boring even after many listens. It's about an emotional connection that you have no idea about it. Your loss.

>And yeah that would be one word that sends up red flags, but also "emotional connection" and "that you have no idea about."
"Emotional connection" is a real valid thing. It's what makes people appreciate an artist's work. Music is art, it speaks to the soul, it's not some fucking civil engineering. Maybe you're a soulless cynical troll from years of shitposting on this meme board.
>>
>>71268633
>I mean i have on occasion listened to specific songs that you have recommended
Which isn't REMOTELY comparable to just sitting down and listening to music open-minded - which is how true opinions of taste are formed.

I'm not even saying that actually giving the entirety of her discography (4 albums + 1 EP - an easy afternoon's listen) would somehow dramatically shift your opinions. But it would at least enable you to engage in discussion of it (as you seem determined to do regardless) without coming across as a total moron.
>>

>>71268729
>Even music that I've listened to that didnt blow me away at first but I came to enjoy immensly eventually, I was at least lukewarm on when I first heard it.
And since you have self-admittedly never once listened to most of her music, how could you possibly be in a position to make a judgment about that in regards to Grimes' discography?
>>
>>71269198
>I'm not even saying that actually giving the entirety of her discography (4 albums + 1 EP - an easy afternoon's listen) would somehow dramatically shift your opinions.

YOu said ten songs. Grimes' shortest album (Geidi Primes) is 11 songs in length. She's had 4 major releases and an EP.

Claire Boucher aka Grimes is a complete artist (singer, songwriter, producer, sound engineer, dancer, model, visual artist, music video editor and director) that makes some amazing art. Why she creates so much controversy here? Because she's dubbed as the best artist of this decade and some envious folks disagree with that. Because her fans try to shut down any insults targeted to her. Because the trolls have a hard time trying to do their "job".

Another anon said it better:
>Due to the culture of rampant contrarianism on this board, the only time you are going to see a huge majority here saying that they "like" something is when the thing in question isn't good enough to be worth hating. Conversely, the only time you are going to see a huge majority here saying that they "hate" something is when the thing in question IS good enough to be worth hating - because otherwise there is no point in expressing an opinion at all.

>For an artist, being strongly loved on /mu is a bad sign in terms of wider market appeal. Likewise being strongly hated on /mu is also a bad sign in terms of wider market appeal. However being simultaneously strongly loved AND strongly hated by /mu is a wonderful sign, since that polarization of feeling is the closest thing a place like this has to offer to a true judgment of artistic value.

yes, she does. I'm claire's father, when she visits us she is locked in the bathroom in tears sometimes, yelling at me and her mother to go away and leave her alone when we are at the door concerned. And thats because of the things she reads on 4chan about her.

Grimes has ugly feet

Do you think she will release some music this year?
>>
>>71280175
i wonder why she adopted that puppy
>>
>>71280037

yeah, I'm sick. Sick of you goofballs saying things about my daughter that make her cry. And I'm sick of claire's tantrums too if I'm honest. So why don't you assholes just stop talking about her
>>
>>71279118
She's an extremely talented artist/musician who specializes in making highly subversive art. Simple as that.
