Rank her albums.

IMO: Visions > Art Angels > Darkbloom > Halfaxa > Geidi Primes
>>
why are you posting pics of my future wife???

I'm a part of what some people call the "voignamirian horde" and it feels punk as fuck. It feels like an actual counter culture, or rebellion against the plebeian/patrician genre-bound music culture that dominates Western music criticism.
>>
happy birthday Claire!! <33

What part of "rounding the base" you miss.
Wait until you get to 29 and then suddenly wonder "when did I get to 40?" cuz it happens that fast. Or maybe it feels a lot slower in the basement, I don't know.

She is getting close as in rounding third base in baseball. It comes way to fast when you are busy. Or you know Google it.

Can someone explain to me what a 5D multi timbral synth is? also what is roli equator?
>>
>>71613463
Fun fact: Grimes actually started taking voice lessons several years ago, but stopped - at least in part - because she was being trained out of her lisp.
>>
I can't believe in one more year she'll be 30 and officially old. Where has the time go /grimes/? I hope she releases a new album before that.
>>
>>71613691
I consider it to add uniqueness to her music
>>
>>71613661
>Can someone explain to me what a 5D multi timbral synth is?
Maybe just a gimmicky synth with more kinds of sounds.

>also what is roli equator?
https://roli.com/equator
>>
>>71613648
Most people say Visions or Art Angels, less people say Halfaxa and few people say Geidi Primes. Listen to her music and form your opinion.
>>
>>71613661
This: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fQbtp2BgY4
I own one (the smallest version - the same one Grimes is noodling on in that IG vid) as of a week. The thing is amazing.

In essence, it is a midi keyboard with a rubber-like surface that is able to detect initial press intensity, maintained finger pressure, finger release intensity, horizontal position, and vertical position (aka their "5D"s of touch) for each individual finger placed on it and translate it into extremely dynamic midi data output. The multi-timbral part comes from the fact that you can configure it to selectively trigger multiple different synth sounds simultaneously (such as based on initial press intensity.)

For example, Equator (the desktop synth engiine app made specifically by Roli to take advantage of the Seaboard's features) has a preset which sounds like a struck zither when you strike a key, but sounds like a synth pad if you press lightly and hold. It allows you to essentially play two different instruments on the same keyboard at the same time without any significant playing limitations.

listening to grimes (visions to be exact) for the first time ever so I can see what the big fuss is
im really groovin to this
>>
>>71631608
IMO this album is a real grower. There are some obvious hits but also some weirder songs that may require additional plays. I recommend you to listen to it on headphones first.
>>
>>71631729
ye im listening with headphones
i dont think there's been a song i didn't like yet but i feel like itll take a few listens before i really "get" the album and hear everything there is

>>71631803
>i feel like itll take a few listens before i really "get" the album and hear everything there is
Exactly. It's the kind of album that really clicks after some listens and if you're in the right mood for it. I listened to Visions over 50 times and it still sounded amazing every single time.

Be a Body, Symphonia IX (My Wait Is U), Nightmusic and Skin are secretly the best songs on Visions, besides the obvious choices (Genesis, Oblivion, Circumambient, Vowels = Space and Time).

so why is art angels posted so often? is it actually better than this or does it just work as bait or whatever because its more recognizable?

Art Angels is almost the same as good as Visions. AA and Visions are like light and dark.

Why is AA posted so often? Because it's catchier and more immediate, has better singing and better production, and it's more diverse. It's an upbeat album with dark lyrics. On the other hand Visions is more uniform, more chill and dreamy, more lo-fi, but also more overtly emotional. Read this article to get an idea how Visions was made: https://www.theguardian.com/music/2012/apr/28/grimes-visions-montreal

3 snippets:
>Three weeks barricaded inside a room without food, sleep or company. It sounds like the kind of thing you'd only put yourself through if you were quitting heroin or training to become a Zen monk. For Grimes, however, it's all part of the essential process of creating hypnotic weirdo pop.

>"Once you hit day nine, you start accessing some really crazy shit," smiles Claire Boucher, the skittish 24-year-old Canadian behind the deliberately misleading Grimes moniker. "You have no stimulation, so your subconscious starts filling in the blanks. I started to feel like I was channelling spirits. I was convinced my music was a gift from God. It was like I knew exactly what to do next, as if my songs were already written."

>"Visions was an extremely cathartic album to make. I went through a period a few years back when I was really addicted to drugs. Two of my best friends died, I had this really fucked-up assault experience and I was constantly in and out of terrible relationships.

I think most Grimesposters can't stand blatant shitposting and insults. We have a reputation for meta trolling the trolls. But if you're willing to discuss her music/life in a decent way, you're more than welcome.

>>71630741
>It must be a glitch.
Not at all. Somewhere there's an early interview with Grimes where she addressed the issue of Internet fame versus irl fame. From its very beginnings, Grimes has always been a distinctly internet-centered phenomenon. One needs to take only a quick look at Grimes' social media presence to realize that that is where she is BY FAR the most comfortable with expressing herself. Which is why it makes perfect sense for her to be ranked somewhere in the top 50 or so musicians of her kind in the world when it comes to the Internet.

Remember, gauging popularity on the Internet (or irl) isn't really as simple as counting how many "likes" a person has. Engagement level is every bit as important as raw popularity, and that takes a bit more effort to judge (and is the sort of thing Google, with its mysterious algorithms, is is uniquely suited to comprehend.)

It's pretty funny that Google mentioned Grimes in that shortlist from millions of female artists. And there are a lot of female artists more famous than her. Maybe she doesn't have big hits, but her impact is pretty big in the music world.

Nice. Listen to her older albums too. Halfaxa is like Visions 2x more lo-fi, weirder and dreamier, Geidi Primes is like a Grimes Beta Version and the EP Darkbloom is like a transition between Halfaxa and Visions.

Oh. Why didn't you say so?
Purportedly (because I never came across it myself) Deep Blue was the name on Grimes' stealth Facebook account, which she was using for strictly PR management purposes up until some time late last year when it... disappeared for unknown reasons (possibly because Facebook no longer tolerates identity obfuscation on its platform.)

That's my understanding of it, anyway. Someone else can correct me if I'm wrong.

Which would make her approximately 47 years old (since a Venusian year is equivalent to roughly 225 Earth days.) So I guess the answer would be yes.

>>71636369
>>71636394
Imo it tends to not get very much attention because her other works are so much more developed. But imo you're right - it's got more than a few really good tracks on it.

If you prefer more experimental/dreamy music, better start with Visions. If you're in the mood for some upbeat electropop, try Art Angels again.
>>
>>71642877
It sounds like the kinda music a cute girl would listen to. Her voice can be crazy cute at times, but I don't exactly like what she's doing with it. California seems like it's gonna grow on me.

Didn't really like it over all, I reckon it's good for what it's trying to be, but it's not my thing.

Favorite track was California, least favorite was Scream.

Grimes is pretty good, AA is standing the test of time.
>>
>>71649602
Imo if you take Art Angel's bigger singles (like FWB) and listen to them back-to-back with the latest offerings from the rest of the pop sphere (e.g. Lorde's/Lana Del Rey's new singles or even Lady Gaga's album from last year) it's remarkable how "current" (if not more futuristic-sounding) the AA stuff sounds. Remember - this is pop music land we're talking about, where musical trends routinely go in and out of fashion in something like 3-6 weeks.
>>
Grimes - REALiTi | Orchestral Instrumental | Piano and Strings

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zSetQzLZ_lQ
>>
>>71649912
That's right. Lorde, Gaga, Lana, they all sound so retro compared to Grimes. Right now no one from pop music is better than her.
>>
>>71649942
I'm not even saying this in terms of whether or not it is "better" or not (taste is subjective after all, and there's plenty of good purposefully "retro" music out there.) It's just that Art Angels sounds like it was made with more recent music trends in mind. Which imo is pretty remarkable given that it's first single premiered just about two years ago.

Anon, how do you think the concept of ghost producing came about? I'll give you a hint - it certainly wasn't in the context of female musicians since the precedent has always been that women are hardly ever the sole writers/producers of their own music. There's a whole pigeon industry of ghost producers out there, most of whom (by virtue of sheer numbers) are employed doing supposedly self-produced, self-writing male musicians' work for them.

I’m gonna tell you a story it’s called “the day when I met Grims”, it was a day in which I was doing the nofap meme and I had almost a month without fapping because of that I had a chip on my shoulder and to top it off, my mother told me that she couldn’t afford to buy me the ps4 for my birthday like she promised, it costs a pretty penny so I think that it was a total long shot but still I had the hope of having a ps4 in that special day. After insulting my mother I ran to a market to buy me some doritos, I was going to pay for it when I realized that she was there buying some mayonesse, at that moment what happened early in the morning it was just water under the bridge now, I almost started to cry, this was better than having five ps4, I saw her and she didn’t notice me. I hid behind a wall and I couldn’t believe my eyes, I was blown away, she’s a beauty in person. Thanks Grimes for being alive.

Not at all. AA is patrician pop according to every criteria you want (acclaim, limited popularity, innovative, eccentric, unique, great songs, etc).

They DOMINATE it now. Something like 85% of all professional music producers are male. Which means that there are a boatload of male producers out there taking solo credit for other people's work. Because they can afford it.
