CrunchyTabasco Link ParentThat sounds super cool! Are you most experienced with 3d printing, building things, or photography? Seems to be a neat intersection of a few disciplines.That sounds super cool! Are you most experienced with 3d printing, building things, or photography?

Those three weeks were honestly kind of...fun? But the novelty quickly wore off once school resumed, and things haven't gotten much better since.

I used to play that for HOURS in middle school but I could never actually beat it.Oh my god, I didn't even think about the Impossible Quiz! Is there a ported version of that anywhere?

But because of all the drama associated with it my roommates and I ended up staying up till midnight on Christmas Eve just to listen to the whole thing. Carti owes Judah a lot in terms of advertising at least.

I don't think anything they put out will ever top SILY for me but I think they really improved upon what they were trying to do with Wildflower. Right now my AOTY is between this and clipping.

It reminds me of the Avalanches; it seems to have sampled some interview and builds a song around the interview content in a really creative way.

The Deep is an immensely interesting single released by the group in 2018. I highly recommend reading along with lyrics as you listen, as there is an impressive amount of world-building, clever wordplay, and allusions packed into these five and a half minutes.

Comment on Roomful of Teeth - Allemande (avant-garde vocal music) in ~music
CrunchyTabasco Link ParentJust read a bit about To Touch, that's really interesting! To me Cardiff's work exhibits more parallels to some of Steve Reich's compositions, but I see some similarities to Roomful of Teeth as well.Just read a bit about To Touch, that's really interesting!

This is Roomful of Teeth, an eight-person vocal band who experiment with a bunch of uncommon techniques using the human voice. The linked song is the first movement of Caroline Shaw's Partita for 8 Voices, which won the Pulitzer Prize for Music in 2013.
What do you all think? I was absolutely fascinated the first time I heard this.

CrunchyTabasco Link ParentI'm very late on this reply because I forgot tildes existed...my bad. But this sounds like good advice, I'll probably start looking into it when I have more time this summer. Thanks!I'm very late on this reply because I forgot tildes existed...my bad.

Sharing one of my favorite songs of 2020. I've never heard of this artist before I listened to their Wicked City EP, where this song came from, but I'm captivated and will definitely dig deeper into their discography. I love the glitchy, surreal second half which follows what could almost be a Sara Bareilles song in the first half.
