You are currently reading a thread in /mu/ - Music
Since the shit posters of /mu currently have their own thread going for irrational Grimes hate, let's have all the aspects of discussion about her here.
>>66235580
Fuck you and your shitty waifuposting
That being said I like Art Angels and Visions
>>66235580
Her (and everyone else's) Glastonbury sets (video) are on themixingbowl.org, private tracker that has all kinds of music.
>>66235587
What do you think of her earlier stuff? Personally I like the sound of it more (I'm normally an anti-pop person) but I find the increasingly better crafting of her newer work incredibly interesting.
>>66235580
I wonder what her opinion on the death grips is. Has she ever posted a song of theirs to her tumblr?
>>66235580
tumblr fad, talentless hack.
>>66236248
You're in the wrong thread.

Do you think Stefan posts in these threads? Do you think she's his waifu?
>>66235817
i used to only like geidi primes but this week halfaxa finally clicked for me. people say the newer stuff is put together better but i honestly didn't notice that

FUCK GRIMES
>the last grimes thread was the first in like 15 that died before 310 posts
the end of an era.
are we gonna go back to these threads dying at 15 posts and being plagued by montie and bjork posters?
>>66236537
thanks for the bump montie
>>66236844
I will never ever not hate those glasses.
First of all

Eugh.
Second of all the shape of those lenses make me angry and I don't know why.

>>66235580
>>66236264
>>66236844
>>66236452
Halfaxa took me like 3 listens before I actually got it but now that I did it's amazing. I'd probably even put it above Art Angels.
>>66235817
I think her older stuff is complete trash to be honest. I'm not as autistic as you waifufags but Grimes is one of my favorite modern female musicians yet I think everything before Visions is pretty much trash
I'm open to being proved wrong though
>>66236537
Still in the wrong thread.
>>66236452
It's funny, cuz neither did I (her earlier stuff still sounds amazing to me if I just sit back and relax into the listening experience.) But after reading all her comments about how it's riddled with technical problems, I start getting distracted looking for them.
>>66237302
What do you like from Visions?
I actually agree with you she didn't find her voice until Visions
I think Grimes is pretty cool but these threads are sad
>>66237302
her older stuff is not as accessible as newer, it requires a couple of listens
i started to listen to grimes with Art Angels and i still like it a lot, but now i think my favorite grimes album is halfaxa, which i didnt really like for the first time
>>66237302
>>66237671

halfaxa > art angels > geidi primes > visions = darkbloom

Will report back later
>>66236537
>listen to something better
no
i have not listened to a single grimes track aside from that one video with a bunch of reversed footage of girls doing makeup and shit
what album should i listen to first
>>66237787
Art Angels
>>66236215
she probably likes them considering the fact that she likes industrial and hip-hop
>>66236537
also
>pop music is inherently bad
>"appropriation"
>caring about the physical appearance of an artist
all your reasons are shit desu
>>66236537
Kys Montie pls :)
>>66237889
They probably have some wierd kink about wanting to be kicked in the balls by her or something, by trying to annoy her.
>>66237222
I'm the classical musician who's been butting into these threads of late (since first seeing Grimes live) and there is so much going on in Halfaxa (especially during the latter half of the album) both sonically, based on my formal theoretical music training, and emotionally, based on my readings about its inception, that I've recently had to stop listening to it because it is so emotional.
I've listened/performed music by most of the greats and over never had this experience before - it's why I'm convinced she's a fucking genius.
Redpill me on Grimes. What are her best songs?
>>66237992
California
>>66236537
Fuck off Montie. Literal autist.
>>66237992
my current top 5:
heartbeats
realiti
nightmusic
rosa
artangels
How is her music any better than Marina & The Diamonds, Lana Del Ray, or Halsey?
>>66236844
Don't thank that (f/m)aggot.
>>66238106
She does damn near everything by herself including the production
Can you say that about the talent(less) in your post?
>>66238106
her music is way more complex, engaging, and sincere than any of them. lana del ray is ok, dont care for marina, and halsey is fucking garbage
>>66237992
Nightmusic
Realiti
Be a Body
World Princess Part II
Rosa
Weregild
Devon
Oblivion
Genesis
Symphonia IX
Kill V. Maim
Artangels
Angel
David
Circumambient
Venus in Fleurs
Sagrad
>>66238106
It just sounds better. It's also more emotional.
>>66237992
IMO this specific (live!) studio performance of Heartbeats may be the single most powerful piece of music she will ever create.
With that said - I'd say that if you're more of a "mainstream" music listener you should start with her most recent album (Art Angels) and work yourself chronologically backward from there. If you're more of an "alternative" music type, do the opposite - start with Geidi Primes and then work your way forward.
>>66238225
Thank you very informative and well-written opinion
>>66237302
Try harder. It took me quite a long time to get into her early stuff and now I love it. Don't dismiss it so quickly.

After all these years,thats still my favorite Grimes.
>>66239922
You might enjoy this video.
https://vimeo.com/34822306
It's my favorite Grimes too. She was starting to get her music career on track and improving as a person, but she still hadn't dealt with the issues that slammed her into the niche of awkward weirdo outcast.
>>66239687
>In the video you directed for the song “Vanessa” there’s a heavy use of reverse motion. The physical language of the face-painters and dancers appear unnatural yet completely intuitive. What attracted you to this contrast? If you could re-live a moment in your life in reverse motion what moment would that be?
>I just love things that are unsettling…and I feel like backwards motion really accomplishes that because you still see the image, it’s just slightly unnatural but not super overt or in your face. I feel like backwards vocals accomplish the same effect. Backwards vocals to me always sound like demons, people moving backwards always look like demons.. Like, in twin peaks, when they’re in hell or whatever, and everyone walks backwards and speaks backwards. It’s so sinister.. but I love the contrast with like, the beautiful girls. Or undoing the make up. I love the undoing of something. Going back in time. But yeah, if I could live a moment in reverse motion? I’d like to watch some kind of physical injury undo itself. That would be so amazing. Wow, that would be a great thing to shoot, actually.
>>66240038
Holy smokes, that so cute! I see genuine happiness. And finally I know where that gif of her in the kitchen came from. Oh and the guy in the car with her is pretty adorable too.
>>66240414
>The guy in the car with her is pretty adorable too
Do not compliment the Seb.
>>66240517
it's probably Seb talking about himself
>>66240565
>Implying Seb has said anything nice about Grimes since she refused to be his cash cow
And to think he threw away that friendship that they had since the 6th grade all because he was too greedy. That's what I call a royal fuckup.
>>66240517
I was commenting solely on his looks. Not his cold dead heart or rotten soul.
>You mentioned that you have a clearer idea of what The Avalanches are now. But a big part of The Avalanches back around the time of Since I Left You was this youthful rebellion – fucking around and breaking stuff on stage. How do you keep that spirit as you get older?
>It’s a really good question. As you grow older, you enter your thirties, you have to fight to keep that spirit alive. It’s easy to slip into routine and lose that spark. That’s part of the music making process, and the role new music plays, being inspired by hearing a new artist and how they go about something. Even if it’s completely stylistically different – the way Grimes just owns her shit, does it all herself with this DIY thing going on. You need that inspiration every day when you sit down to work, to wake you up and shake you up and break you out of your routine.
Thoughts?
Symphonia IX (my wait is u) is a fuckin tune, mate
>>66236452
It has pop sensibility and she actually sings. Songs just feel more full and structured. Not necessarily better but that's how I see it
>>66241912
Agree. This live version is fantastic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YSWwVYuqsVM
>>66240038
she and seb look kind of uncomfortable there, don't know why
>>66242857
is that a self portrait?
i can absolutely imagine thats how she sees herself. it would certainly explain why she doesn't understand why people say she's cute.
>>66242910
yes
https://www.flickr.com/photos/claireboucher
and about the "cute" thing, I think she speaks about not seeing her way of being as cute, not her face, or maybe I'm wrong
What would you do if you found out she was a furry?
>>66243403
What an asinine question (go ahead - look it up.)
>>66243403
build time machine and abort her with a hammer
>>66236844
She's got nice cleavage here
>>66243549
I looked it up and I couldn't find any information on the subject.
Is she or isn't she?

>Anthony Fantano disliked the lyrics song that calls out critics
>MFW it's almost universally loved by everybody who isn't a critic
>>66243887
fantano is just 1 person with 1 opinion.
it's OK to look at critics and their viewpoints
but don't forget to make your own
>>66243928
I don't listen to critics to form opinions, I always form my own. I just watch fantano because I think he's pretty funny (on his thatistheplan channel, at least)
I was laughing because I think it's funny that the critic doesn't like the song that calls out critics. Even though he's not exactly like pitchform critics and appreciates grimes' art for her art and not because she's his waifu or some shit.
>>66243985
oh oke
>>66236537
you're autistic
>>66238126
if the music is shit it doesn't make it better that it was made by a single person
why would I watch a shit movie just because one person made it? that's so stupid
>>66243985
I don't like his opinions about Grimes, but Fantano is quite entertaining as a critic.
>>66244199
>if the music is shit it doesn't make it better that it was made by a single person
Except that her music isn't shit. Your taste is probably shit, I can't guarantee it. So, liking it or not, Grimes makes great music.
So, great music + made by a single person + great personality + nice appearance = Grimes. It's easy.
>>66244326
for you****
>>66244238
I don't agree with his opinions about Grimes, but I can certainly respect them.
He gives his honest opinions about her artwork, nevermind the politics and all the drama that people stir up around her. He just focuses on the art and he doesn't diminish it in any way.
That's all Grimes has ever asked of critics, which you would assume is a reasonable assumption. In fact, she's mentioned before that she held this assumption some years ago.
But well, I don't have pic related saved as filename for no reason. People would rather talk about how she doesn't shave her legs or whether or not they'd fuck her rather than discuss her artwork. Critics love to take everything she posts on the internet to run clickbait on her words, driving her away from her fans because she can't say shit without the media turning it into some kind of news cycle.
I'd be downright frustrated with everybody BUT people like Fantano if I was Grimes.
>>66244359
It's sad that some critics / listeners treated Grimes like shit just because she's a woman with strong opinions.
Fantano was decent with his reviews about her albums. He focused on the actual music, what he liked and what he disliked, not political bullshit.
Sometimes I wonder why the fuck some people are so mad at Grimes? What she did wrong to them? They seem very annoyed by the fact she exists.
what a rock n roll baby gurl!
>>66244238
His Visions review is honestly embarrassing, but yeah, he can be very entertaining.
>>66244520
I think it's funny (in a sad way) that people make a big fuss about her opinions when she always tries to separate her politics from her art, and she DOES.
Her art is mostly apolitical, the only exception I can think of is California and she's completely fucking justified and correct in it. It's not her opinion or anything, but expressing her frustration that the media makes this huge fuss about something that she doesn't overtly go out and share.
>Sometimes I wonder why the fuck some people are so mad at Grimes? What she did wrong to them? They seem very annoyed by the fact she exists.
I don't know either and it doesn't make any sense. She's always been super friendly, super nice and she has a good heart. FFS her twitter bio is links to charities to help displaced refugees and anti-whaling organizations.
And yet despite this fortress of positivity that she's put up, people seem determined to try and tear it down for no good reason other than maybe they take it's very existence as a challenge?
I weep for Grimes. At the core of it all she's just a shy dork with an affinity for anime and musical talent. She's extremely opinionated and aggressive but she keeps it out of the public spotlight in good taste. She wants people to talk about Grimes, not the awkward nerd known as Claire. And yet despite doing nothing but the right things in her career people still want to drag Claire out of the dark kicking and screaming and most seem to just ignore Grimes. It's infuriating as a fan.
>>66244721
>displaced refugees and anti-whaling
thats why ::)
>>66244778
I have so much shit to say on this truth and why it's 100% disgusting but it's not grimes related and doesn't belong on /mu/
So instead have this picture of 2012 Grimes.
>>66244829
no worries my man, im just winding you up :+)
baby baby baby gurl...
>>66244721
They probably just envy her.
>>66244867
>Soros niece or something was molested by misplaced refugee
>he got mad

>>66244968
Thats not something to be happy about. molestation is a serious issue anon :/, no matter if its that idiots sister or not
>>66245036
he made billions of dollars from other people woes.
I want to talk a bit about Realiti demo vs Realiti album version. Ok, many said the demo version is superior to the album version. I can understand that, but why so many called the album version terrible or way worse than the demo? FFS, it has a really strong ending and additional melodies that fit the song very well. It has also a better production and the singing isn't radically different. Thoughts?
>>66245111
synth part is worst, she changed pitch and instead of melancholic tune it turned into just random sound.
>>66245220
But the album version fits the album more than the demo. The album is pretty aggressive and the demo is quite melancholic and soft.
>>66245111
I like both versions. Neither one is terrible. My guess is that most people that say its terrible are being overly dramatic. Everybody who heard the demo version first has a stronger connection to it. The new version may sound unfamiliar and can't evoke the feelings of the demo.
>>66245332
i still havent listened to the demo version lol
>>66245111
I like the album version better.
The production is a lot better and so is the mixing and engineering. Yes the tune is different and it's almost feels like a completely different feeling, but it's not bad.
It's just people not liking change, I think.
It's also important to note that Grimes was in two entirely different places when she did both versions. Put yourself in her shoes and trace her steps to where she was in early 2013 when she made the demo version, and then fast forward to 2015 when she made the album version and all that happened in between.
>>66245305
It is not a concept album.
>>66245332
I wrote this post >>66245111
I've heard the demo first and I loved it after the first listen. However that didn't stop me of loving the album version too. I keep both versions.
>>66245372
But it has a specific electropop sound. You can't confuse most of its songs with older songs.
do you think if MC Ride approached grimes about doing a collab track, her doing the production and Ride on the vocals, that she'd go for it?
I'd kill for something like that.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MgshhTHxSNc
>>66245363
You should. The song is incredibly wonderful, pop perfection no less. The demo version is actually the one from the Realiti music video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9XKLqGqwLA
Apparently Grimes lost the files of this version and she remade the song for Art Angels.
>>66245450
I don't care about DG, but that mashup is damn great. DG should hire Grimes pronto as their producer.
>>66245450
No. Grimes wouldn't produce for someone else, unless she can be a Mary Sue.
>>66245482
>lost
She released realiti demo as normal song ages ago and there like 3 times longer weird cute sound session in the end.
>>66245566
Are you saying that you already asked her, Stefan?
Upset that your waifu rejected you at a time when everybody and their grandmothers wants to get you to collab with them?
>>66245450
I like Death Grips mashups but I don't like actual Death Grips.
>>66245660
She implied few times that she would only consider collaborating with people she finds in soundcloud trashcans.
>>66245701
Nobody likes them really. 90 % of DG fans only like the drummer.
>>66245731
bones and grimes collab when. or is bones to popular idk
>>66245731
Deathgrips are below soundcloud trashcans, to be honest.
They literally distribute their art for free on their own website, and they have literally zero interest in ever evolving beyond that.
>>66245761
A lot of people actually really like them. I'm one of those people.
Grimes probably likes them, seeing as she's into experimental, rap and industrial and can probably get behind their ethos of putting the art first.
>>66235580
Yo I don't even know who this is, but she looks like a FUCKING UGLY BITCH hahahahahahaha
>>66245933
GOTTTEMMMMM

>>66245305

>>66245731
Yeah, Grimes found Aristophanes (the rapper from SCREAM) on Soundcloud: http://www.thefader.com/2015/07/29/meet-aristophanes-grimes
>In the final scene of The FADER's Grimes cover story, Claire Boucher is hanging out at "Go" collaborator Blood Diamonds' Los Angeles studio, video-chatting with a mysterious, Taipei-based collaborator scheduled to appear on her long-awaited fourth record. The person at the other end of the line is Aristophanes 貍貓, a Taiwanese MC Boucher stumbled upon on SoundCloud and recruited to spit on an album track called "SCREAM."
>>66245952
It's about the same as the demo, quality-wise.
>>66245954
>she
it was james :^), apparently it is his job at grimes inc.
>>66245761
That's not true.
>>66245786
Are you 14?
>>66246013
Close enough. She had the final say. Anyway Grimes collaborates with people she really likes: Blood Diamonds, Majical Cloudz, Bleachers, Doldrums, Janelle Monae, Solar Year,...
>>66246123
whats a doldrums?
>>66246146
What's a Google?

>>66246013
You mean Grimes Corp.
>Something I didn't realize when I started making music was that any entrepreneurial endeavor involves hiring people, creating a company, and becoming a businessperson. So, while you may know me as a musician, in practice I am also a boss. I'm the CEO of two companies, Grimes Creative Corp and Fairy Tour Corp, and I just started Roco-Prime Productions with my brother. This is simultaneously very cool and very stressful. I'm definitely not the best or most experienced boss. I'm also a young, female boss, which can present a very particular set of practical and emotional challenges. Here, I've compiled a list of things that have been useful to me while I've been figuring out how to be in charge, in the hope that some of them might help any of you who are doing what I'm doing (aka learning as you go).

>>66246315
only if she was naked
>>66246353
yes im sure it's so stressful to tell your boy maid what to research for you and have him show you new artists.
she strikes me as the kind of person who would take the headphones off if she didn't like what she was listening to and throw them at james while yelling at him for being a stupid idiot, and everybody on the bus just averts their gaze and looks at their phone or out the window while subtley pressing the volume up button on whatever they're listening to music with.
>>66246353
>There’s a psychology to success. I was reading all these biographies and watching documentaries about people who are successful. It seemed like the only thread amongst everybody is that unflinching, “Yes, I can do this and I am the best.” It’s a personal rhetoric that you can develop. Like, if you go and tell journalists, “I’m the future of music,” then people start printing that. So I’m just going to tell everyone I’m making the future of music. I’M GOING TO FORCE THE SITUATION TO HAPPEN.
Name a more confident artist.
>>66246330
she is pedomorphic.
>>66246414
No, that's wrong. She's a really sweet person, not pretentious at all.

This image gave me anxiety because I'm afraid that morningstar is going to smack her calcium deficient ankle in those platform shoes and it'll shatter everything in that area.
>>66246423
Death Grips
>>66246467
Both of us know that's b8.
>>66246461
She apparently knocked her brother down and knocked his teeth out with a hockey stick when she was younger.
Maybe she doesn't abuse james in public, but she definitely abuses him in private. Why do you think he's attempted suicide multiple times now? He's trying to escape but she always walks in before he bleeds to death and performs life-saving triage to keep him in the hell he lives in for as long as possible.
>>66246474
She's not that fragile. Yes, she has health problems, but she's not made of glass.
>>66246231
people never listen for the music, it's entirely about libidinal cathexes and that we want to fuck her
she is a FETISH OBJECT
>>66246509
>implying that Grimes is a monster
>>66246509
>attempted suicide
what
>>66246522
>she's not made of glass.
made of crystal meth
>>66246252
yeah she is
she's less cool and more goofy now though
>>66246522
A healthy male would probably break their ankle if you hit it with a morning star while wearing shoes like that.
Girls have less dense bones and she has an acute calcium deficiency. She's not made of glass, but I'm still allowed to get anxious about her hurting her ankles. Remember when she wore that brace for an entire tour?
>>66246539
How come? Don't you see how many called her ugly? I guarantee you that most people like Grimes for her music. They listen to her music, not to her image. Some may like her look too.
>>66246559
It's just because of PTSD he got when he was still working as street prostitute in Ville-Marie.
t. insider
>>66246567
Grimes is happier now. She had a pretty unpleasant life for a while in the past.
>>66246601
idk i can't imagine anyone actually listening to her "music"

I'll take the artist that has a song entitled "I Am a God", which features God, on an album that implies he is like Jesus

unpleasant life as a rich kid from Vancouver w/ a politician mom who went to study in Montreal at Concordia? bullshit
lurker here
this grimes obsession is really just a meme right?
>>66246633
You can't imagine it NOW. But give it a fair listen and maybe you will like it LATER. Start with Visions.
>>66246601
her "music" is shit and she's only successful because she's female
>>66246433
So am I (it's a genetic thing - my entire immediate family looks 10-20 years younger than average people our age.) What's your point?
>>66246663
Nope. It's for real.

Kanye
>>66246667
i've been listening and honestly it's really low quality, like something that shouldn't be popular or successful... a fad or trend, really stupid artless music
>>66246680
Nothing, I just pointing out that people who adore her beauty might also adore beauty of children in general :^)
>>66246679
>her "music" is shit
Wrong
>and she's only successful because she's female
No. Actually most female musicians are unsuccessful. Look at any festival lineup and count how many female artists are. Exactly.
There are lots of beautiful women, but none of them are as talented as Grimes. Her music and her personality made her famous, not her controversial look.

That's the Lauren Mayberry group. She actually looks like an autistic 13-year-old boy

>>66246721
You're too stupid to appreciate it now. Maybe you like shit music if that gorgeous album doesn't have any effect on you. Maybe you don't even get electropop. The fault is yours, not hers. Try harder, listening to it once it's not enough.
check out tei shi too

>>66246740
her "music" is red hot chilli peppers level bad
you're wrong, girls in any music scene are total tokens and fetishized by all the horny male music nerds. they always suck and everybody loves them because they unconsciously want to fuck them
>>66246741
oh.
>>66246778
you guys are fucking plebs. i "get" grimes. i'm Better than grimes. you don't get it.
>>66246653
I'm sure getting addicted to hard drugs and having two really close friends die (one swallowing a shotgun and the other ODing in front of you) completely unaffected her because of her privilege.
Yesiree, Im sure she's just faking it all.
>>66246791
I love grimes in purely platonic way.
>>66246791
>because they unconsciously want to fuck them
If you do that, doesn't mean everybody do
>>66246633
If you can't even imagine someone listening to music, what are you doing on /mu?
>>66246791
>>66246740
You dipshits know that music is subjective, right? Why do you spend so much time and energy arguing over a 20-year-old Canadian popstar on a Venezuelan gardening website?
>>66246791
OK, I get it. You're just a horny dumbass that has no idea about music and art. You should fuck off pronto. And don't let the door hit you on the way out.
>>66246813
dude drug addiction is an expression of her fucking white privledge. what was she addicted to, cocaine or some pussy-ass rich kid shit? that's how the scene goes, faggot. people commit suicide and people overdose on drugs.
>>66246791
You couldn't be more wrong. I have no interest in fucking Grimes, or the singers from Windhand, Subrosa, and Goat, or Chelsea Wolfe.
They are simply good artists. Grimes is somewhere in the top 50 producers currently active. On a tier with Kanye in his prime. Listen to the title track of her last record with headphones and realize how full of shit you are.
>>66246846
you're a fucking dumbass pleb with shit taste
>>66246653
Unlike you, not everyone believes in living off their parents.
>>66246845
>You dipshits know that music is subjective, right?
no, it is pretty objective and revolves around academic formalism.
>>66246863
you all want to fuck grimes and are in denial, otherwise you're all gay
>>66246845
Look who's talking. Why the fuck do you spend so much time and energy arguing over a 20-year-old [sic] Canadian popstar [sic] on a Venezuelan gardening website? Did you enter here by mistake?
She's 28, idiot. And she's not a popstar, but a complete artist.

Which album are you listening to?
>>66246876
implying grimes didn't live off her parents while living in vancouver and going away to college
>>66246873
(You)
Now fuck off. Pronto.

>Implying you wouldn't say yes to her if she got you drunk enough
Don't deny it anons. She's not ugly, she's got a good personality, she's a good girl and she's probably a good lay.
If you were completely inhibited past the point of cohesiveness required to actually consent, you'd say yes. You can't deny it. Even if you said no, does this look like the face of someone who gives a fuck about your consent? You can't escape fucking her, anons. She's going to prey on you.
>>66246877
>>66246902
JFC this is why people hate Grimes. You spergs are insufferable.
>>66246893
I'm happily married to a woman who I find far more attractive than Grimes. If I was going to stray, it would be with someone like Janelle Monae for a bit of that strange.
>>66246902
SHE'S NOT ANY OF THOSE THINGS
SHE'S JUST A HIPSTER
FOOLING YOU ALL
FAKING IT
YOU DON'T EVEN GET IT
>>66246909
who cares! he's just a troll looking to get a reaction.

>...girls in any music scene are total tokens and fetishized by all the horny male music nerds.
Spoken like a true horny male music nerd...
>>66246636
Yes. But they won't for long.
>>66246808
Better at what exactly?
>>66246845
Because she makes really interesting music. Hence the endless flood of people expressing interest in it in music circles.
>>66246971
>no midi sequencing
Doesn't matter. It's improvised to a degree.
>keyboard parts she plays add no value
What? You can clearly hear kbd parts which are really important.
>backing tracks playing on iPhone
So what? The iPhone is just a sound source.
>literally just feeds shitty sampler into guitar pedal
It doesn't matter. The results matter. And the results are fucking great. Most people who watched this video loved this performance.
>>66246938
I'm going to have to pray in my Grimes shrine after reading your post. I can't let this lewdness linger in my soul.
>>66247097
music
as a vancouverite who is a better musician than grimes and also wanted to move to Montreal to pursue a music career, i am envious of and hate grimes
>>66246971
>no midi sequencing
What do you mean by this? You think she should just be triggering pre-sequenced melodies instead of playing them live?
>keyboard parts she plays add no value
Justify this comment.
>backing tracks playing on iPhone
>literally just feeds shitty sampler into guitar pedal
>actually making shit up on an anonymous forum
>>66246938
well baby she can go and go
>>66247142
I agree with you but
>Most people who watched this video loved this performance.
who cares?
>Grimes make song for Suicide squad
>suicide squad is box office suicide
>james attempted suicide twice
>professor who suggested grimes to do music suicided after he realized what he has done
It is like poetry isn't it?
>>66247186

proof link?
Grimes is badass!

How could he not? Look at any picture of him!

It's much more fun to deflect troll hate with insightful questions - either they don't know how to respond or get drawn into an actual conversation and are no longer trolls. It's a miniature hobby of mine.

>this delusion
>Anons now shitposting about Grimes raping them, abusing James and whether or not she's ever actually had hardships
Do you ever think she stumbled into one of these threads and it was in the state that this one is in now and she just left 20 seconds later severely disappointed?
>>66246971
I'm assuming your high school talent show performances were truly horrendous.
>>66247418
Now that you mention this, I've noticed changes in myself since I started praying to Grimes. It feels good but now I'm worried. Whats happening to me?
Still not as disappointing after reading how genius musician she or cute is.
>>66247475
shes not even that bad looking here
sure she's rough around the edges but if you look her deep in the eyes you don't even notice the thin monobrow or the mustache.
