i like grimes desu
>>66067591
She looks like Tak from Tak and the Power of JuJu
>>66067591
thats not boy george
She's a disgusting fucking chimp I'm gonna hit her with a hammer.
anyone knows which video this is from?
Is there anything finer than listening to Geidi Primes on a sultry summer night? The air is dense to the point of oppression, but the light angelic voice of Grimes cuts through it as I snack on fresh raspberries from the garden. Was that a firefly I spotted in the corner of my eye, or a faery...
>>66067875
I go for midnight runs, and I listen to music. Recently I've been listening to Grimes and frankly it's incredible.
The just cool summer air wrapping around me, running in the middle of the street, not another soul in sight. Once I cleared a line of trees so the moon becomes visible as the soft climbing intro melody to Genesis played and it was such a rush of euphoria I wanted to scream.

Why are you posting on /mu/?
>>66068049
I love the peeks into her image when she was still a scrappy underdog.
>>66067875
really dude? for me her early stuff, especially halfaxa should be listened to in winter nights
in a cabin
not that I have access to one, though
>>66067591
I honestly cannot tell if people are joking about liking Grimes or not. I've either been here too long or not long enough.
>>66068274
why should be we joking, anon?
>>66068154
I agree with you on Halfaxa. I love it on winter nights.
That's Ariel Pink you prune
>>66068274
A pretty good percentage are just memeing, but I do think she's actually quite talented.
>>66068274
This is 4chan - jokers abound. Grimes, however, isn't a joke.
>>66067728
idk but I remember her saying she didn't like that one
Grimes music has brought me luck and good health. She is my queen. Were I to be exposed to her in person, I think she might drive me insane.
>>66070498
if I saw her it'd be obvious I fancy her so I'd probably just give her a thumbs up or something like that
>>66070635
She'd probably understand, maybe even find it a bit endearingly droll.
>A: Joanna Newsom has done so much to expand vocabularies. The words that she uses!
>G: Even now, in her new song, I don’t know what half these words mean. I met her a couple of months ago and made a fool of myself. I, like, wept. And now I can never talk to her again.
>A: It must be hard to be on the receiving end of fan behaviour like that, too.
>G: It’s very weird. It’s an implied social hierarchy in those situations. But then I do it, too. I get it, but I don’t know if I’d want anyone to feel that way about me.
>A: But I’m sure they do.
>G: Oh yeah, people do cry a lot. It’s pretty special I think. The weirdest thing is when people say 'I love you’, and you don’t know what to say back.
Though if we are talking about randomly bumping into her, she'd probably appreciate if you gave her a wave or a thumbs up more than if you came up and bothered her.
>>66070794
That's not Björk
>>66070938
I like Björk too anon, but I like Grimes music more
>>66070768
that's so sweet

>>66067591
ugh i just want her to give me head then i'll enter her gently and gently bring her to climax
>>66071832
that was great, there's a lot of interviews of her out there, both in videos and written, that I don't know
>>66071990
i watched them all and read most of them
>>66072036
oh, I prefer to just watch/read them when they're posted here or suggested on youtube, like when you're near finishing a book and don't want it to end so you start reading more slowly

FUCK
here have a single frame from an animation in the rpgmaker game i made today
i'm stuck on whether i want to title it "james quest" or "default genders quest"
i'm leaning towards the latter, but the former is much catchier
http://loveyouclaire.tumblr.com/post/143881070310/grimes-interview-by-mtv-met-gala-2016
on this one you can really see her trying the more confident body language
>>66072386
any ss from the game?
>>66072400
no. beyond a few other assorted frames I'm 75% done with James' sprite and i've written an outline of the story. nothing to really show.
it's just gonna be a generic rpg maker game with shitty graphics based on the conspiracy theory anons were posting about a few days ago.
like if space funeral were 20 minutes long.
>>66067591
I think you mean Björk
>>66072309
I guess once you start exploring the world of Grimes, you just can't stop anymore.
>>66072400
>do you have your phone on you
>yeah!
>what are your most used emojis
>she doesn't even pull it out
I wonder if she spent a non-negligible part of that dinner thinking about if she should have pulled it out or not.
Nah, She annoying as fuck. I'll say that Visions was pretty damn good, but I couldn't care less about anything else she's put out.
>mfw i realize the opening to weregild is claire talking in a cutesy voice to voignamir
>>66072400
I love the way she says "I kinda hate them all" and the face she gives with it
she's so rad
>>66067591
I just want to lick all parts of her body one-by-one

thank you
>>66074733
Honestly, it's too good to be a Grimes song. It's a gem in the wrong hands.
>>66075128
No, it's Grimes making beautiful music, as usual. Worship her gently.

Everyone should know the song but she does not have her own chops for it. Give it to Britney.
>>66068274
There are some jokers and memers here, but many love her music for real. For instance, I do.
>>66075367
Grimes pretty voice is eternal. Britney is an old hag who had no tenderness to her voice like Goddess. And we don't want everyone to know the song, plebs ruin everything.
>>66072433
i will definitely check this out if you're gonna finish it one day
>>66067591
why are waifu threads allowed? I thought this was a board for music
>>66075527
I don't love her music for the memes, but every other music though..
>>66067591
when is this meme everr going to die out? say, 2 months approximately?
>>66075636
it's been on for months, it should have died allready
>>66075636
which meme?
>>66072625
That's right! Voignamir was her cat. She & Devon Welsh even wrote a song about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YxC3kjPuGZo
>>66073440
>A fairly regular Vancouver kid, with interests like anime, Harry Potter and Mariah Carey, it was during her adolescence that, as Garossino puts it, “something very strange happened.”
>“She changed into some kind of super-brain, exploring the internet all the time.”
>Teenage Boucher’s obsessions ranged from space travel, to the twelfth-century composer Abbess Hildegard von Bingen, to Russian existentialist lit. She crushed so hard on Dostoyevsky that she even flew to St. Petersburg to attend an intensive Russian immersion.
>But as with Grimes’ music, Boucher preferred autodidactism. Garossino recalls hearing Boucher teach one of Chopin’s nocturnes to herself, bar by bar. But only through the wall—at the time, Boucher had too much stage fright to even play the piano in front of her mother.
>“Something that people don't understand about Claire is her searing intellect and focus,” Garossino said. “Whenever you think you've figured her out, she's already three moves ahead. Things are never what they seem.”
>Her mother related how at McGill, the wunderkind wanted to take physics, but couldn’t stand introductory courses. Instead, Boucher entered higher-level classes and studied the prerequisite material at the same time. “She would nearly kill herself studying—surviving on almost no sleep for weeks at a time.”
>“And that's how she makes music today. In long, solitary blasts of blistering intensity.”
hey can you guys post that one mv in which she is wearing tights and she looks hot?

nvm found it myself lazy cunts
>>66075559
i'd like to see a collab
>>66075128
It's not in the wrong hands. She is able to make songs as good as Realiti, such as Oblivion, Genesis, Be a Body, Symphonia IX, Nightmusic, World Princess Part II, Weregild, Kill V. Maim.
Halfaxa is Grimes at her most mystical. Boucher has referred to it as her "medieval album" in terms of intent and subject matter. She once explained that the record is meant to be an electronic interpretation of Middle Age Christian reverence, an exploration of sensations beyond earthly experience: "I wanted to capture the beauty of being in a beautiful cathedral and hearing reverbed (naturally), devotional, vocal music and really believing in heaven and hell."
Many of Boucher's theories for Halfaxa were inspired by her own "idol" at the time, Hildegard von Bingen, a 12th-century German saint without musical training whose music was inspired by divine visions she received starting at the age of three.
As explained in von Bingen's theological text Liber Vitae Meritorum, after The Fall, music became a means of accessing a lost state of perfection. Boucher would later lament that her early musical ventures were recorded when she "didn’t really know what [she] was doing," but listeners discovering Halfaxa in 2016 are aware of her technical ascent, producing and engineering 2015’s Art Angels entirely on her own.
>>66075883

>>66075949
Interesting
>>66076173
she didn't
>>66075949
It's kind of silly to lament it like that, it's a product of that time. There weren't any huge expectations back then.
>>66076173
It was intentional.
>>66076212
i know, but why
>>66076212
>>66076216
doing music which you like is not selling out

holy shit she owns an authentic klf hoodie
i wanna have her babies
>>66076264
Grimes is the coolest.
Any Depeche Mode fans here?
>>66076296
i havent actually listened any of her music but just looking at her photos and reading her interviews she seems like a 9/10 person at the very least
>>66067591
I want Grimes to be my daughter
>>66076311
Her music is truly wonderful. I suggest you watching this little concert of hers: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLfshjAsRKumjek3rgVUB7TvzzMURspMie
Just got another boner thinking about Claire...
>>66076418
Nope, it's here for a while, not sticking down either, it's rock solid. I wasn't even thinking about sex, just her face.
>>66076311
Grimes is the nicest artist that you could possibly hope to find. She's a lil' weird but that shouldn't be a reason to hate her.
>>66076424
I get the same vibes almost everyday. The worst is that I can't jerk off to her, cuz it's prohibited.
What is Grimes' most emotional song?
What was the reason for walking off stage mid set after?
>>66076448
Same, i refuse to fap. Maybe it's just fairy magic coming over me in waves...
>>66076451
It's under investigation. She will probably say later when it will be safe.
>>66076450
that one from her harsh noise album

>Not everyone can become a great artist, but a great artist can come from anywhere. It is difficult to imagine more humble origins than those of the genius now making music as Grimes, who is, in this critic’s opinion, nothing less than the finest musician in Canada. I will be returning to her live shows soon, hungry for more.

>How can an artist (Grimes) not being allowed to sell her own music creations? As you can see from the screenshots, Grimes can’t sell her older albums (Geidi Primes, Halfaxa, Darkbloom) in her official webpage http://www.grimesmusic.com (http://store.grimesmusic.com/music) because she doesnt have the rights of her albums, Arbutus took them from her.
>We dont think it is ok from a label to take the rights of the artist who made them grow in the industry and not allow her to sell her own creations.
>Grimes is not part of Arbutus anymore, as you can see in the screencaps, she is only mentioned as group of artists who once were in Arbutus, but not anymore and they keep making money out of her, because they have the rights of her music.

Pic related:
*Betrayed her trust as a friend
*Betrayed the ideals of the DIY scene he pretended to stand for, and she'd actually believed in
*Treated her like a cash cow for his money losing business
*Tried to control her artistic direction and public statements
*Used her to promote himself, taking credit for her sound
*Set impossible deadlines that required massive drug use to meet
*For example, promising her album would be done by a certain date, without even telling her, when she hadn't even written anything yet
*Forced her to tour constantly despite a serious health condition that worsened and left her at risk of death
*Released her albums before she was finished with them
*Refused to acknowledge his management capabilities were not equipped to deal with her sudden fame
*Refused to accept Roc Nation might be a better fit for her
*Stole her livelihood from her art in retaliation
*Encouraged the now-widespread view SHE was the sellout
*Made her afraid to walk the streets of Montreal
*Turned her old friends against her (like the one in FWB)
*Forced her to leave her favorite city on earth
*Left her rootless with no scene, genre or place that would love her and get what she's doing. Except her fans.
*Steals money from her fans, falsely presenting these reissues as legit, enriching himself at her expense and also ours.
*Inspired the anger and hurt and cathartic scream of Art Angels
*Helped popularize the "sellout" narrative that caused some to underrate her masterpiece AA and prefer her early work
*Makes money from that narrative by selling more of her early work, which he controls

Weak trolling. You didn't even listen to her music. Otherwise you would know that she's a solo artist.
>>66077908
As to how it got in the mix, seems most likely that she either sent the track as a fan gift to someone related to the film (wouldn't surprise me in the least) and the Powers That Be got a hold of it and decided to include it, or the Studio reached out to her about a track to possibly include in the project (not a far stretch by any means) in response to which she sent it (and probably others) in and they liked it.
Explains her genuine surprise/excitement at hearing about its inclusion on the album.
Alright folks, you must watch her Glastonbury performance if you missed it:

>>66084040
No, she's trying to live a cleanish life now.
>>66081660
She assembled the tracks on the album to function as two separate parts, so if you feel like it takes multiple listening sessions to absorb, that actually makes perfect sense.

One of my friends, who usually likes this kind of music, said Art Angels sounded like Avril Lavigne.

Hi, I want to get into Grimes.
Can you post some of her Top songs , by your opinion of course.
>>66088478
>exclusively Art Angels
I know I know I'm sorry
Kill V. Maim

The whole damn album is amazing (apart from 2 of the songs she does with Janelle Monae, they sound like complete shit)

>>66088794
probably not
she's too uncompromising for this
>>66088820
that wouldn't be unwelcome. especially if we were doing cool shit like exploring haunted dungeons, or interrupted a council of cosmic beings that serves as this universe's ultimate authority.
>>66088478
She has lots of great songs, but be sure you listen to these 4 first:
Oblivion
Genesis
REALiTi
Kill V. Maim
>>66089768
>only singles
>>66089795
Yes. As an introduction, they're the most accessible. Later, he could listen to her entire discography.
what do you think is grimes favorite track from an album that isn't art angels?
>>66090062
I bet it's Be a Body or Genesis. From Art Angels it's Kill V. Maim for sure (she said that at Glastonbury).
Is Grimes the modern day Morrissey?
>>66090179
no, grimes is a real man, not like that fag
>>66090193
Don't gender Grimes, you heathen.
It would be great if Grimes would perform older songs from her first 2 albums + EP. Unfortunately, she doesn't seem to like her older music that much these days.
>what a coincidence. the only female musicians deserving of praise also happen to be the most popular waifus from the past ten years.
fuck off. ella fitzgerald and billie holiday were more talented than grimes could ever hope to be.
as for modern female musicians, jenny hval, grouper, eryka badu, and santigold are all better
>>66089098
With dreams like that, who needs reality?
>>66090652
>ella fitzgerald and billie holiday
Fuck off. Ella and Billie were just jazz singers and nothing more. They never composed anything.
Grimes:
>singer
>songwriter
>producer
>lyricist
>live performer
>visual artist
>music video director
Beat that.
Your list?
>jenny hval
Absolute trash. Why she has a career?
>grouper,
Quite good, but too unexciting/sleepy.
>eryka badu
Pretty good. Not my style.
>Santigold
Used to be good. Her latest album: boring trash.
>>66090410
Its a real shame! So many nice songs that she completely ignores.
>>66090870
>songwriter and lyricist
>live performer and singer
I agree that Grimes is amazing, but you're so fucking dumb
Some think that Grimes is just a singer.
<<<< take a look here
going to give Geidi Primes another chance. her only album i haven't been able to get into
>>66091278
Good luck! Hope you're in the right state of mind for it to work.
>>66090995
No. You're fucking dumb.
A songwriter composes the song (mainly the melody), a lyricist composes the lyrics. They're 2 different things. It happens that many times it's the same person that does both.
>A lyricist or lyrist is a musician who specializes in writing lyrics. A singer who writes the lyrics to songs is a singer-lyricist. This differentiates from a singer-composer, who composes the song's melody.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyricist
A singer could sing only in studio, a live performer sings, dances, entertains the crowd, whatever. It's not obligatory for a singer to sing live (be a live performer) in front of an audience. They're 2 different things.
So, fuck off, you're wrong.
>>66090870
>Ella and Billie were just jazz singers and nothing more
>Grimes:
>singer
>songwriter
>producer
>lyricist
>live performer
>visual artist
>music video director
>implying fitzgerald and holiday weren't also singers, lyracists, and live performers.
also their singing voices were 100000 better than grimes' squeaky, undynamic falsetto
>>66091755
>also their singing voices were 100000 better than grimes' squeaky, undynamic falsetto
Grimes has a beautiful voice, very dynamic.
She could sing like this:

I DARE YOU to listen to all these songs. Only a fool could deny the evidence that Grimes is a versatile vocalist.
Maybe Fitzgerald and Holiday had technically better voices but they weren't as diverse as Grimes. Add also her other skills and you can clearly see that Grimes > all those jazz singers.
>>66092228
Super duper highly trained vocalist (degrees in voice/vocal pedagogy and loads of performance experience spanning multiple continents) checking in. Grimes has one of the most entertainingly dynamic singing voices captured on record. You can dislike her sound, or fault her vocal technique (which is clearly still a work in progress.) But in terms of dynamism - you're just wrong.
>>66075128
I jack off to that song
>>66075559
Grimes will suck my dick one day
Do you think Grimes is gonna take a long break from touring after this round?
It always seems to make her sick. She's such a trooper for sticking through it, especially considering she's not eating/sleeping regularly. I hope she doesn't die like Alexander the Great did.
>>66093674
Yeah, were probably going to have to wait until 2020 for Grimes to put out anything new.

I bet she has a really cute cough when she takes a bigger hit than her tiny lungs can handle
Odds on the trolls making this yet another Grimes thread to push past 300?
>>66096421
The same odds of Grimes kissing you on the cheek at some point in your life.
0%. This thread is gonna die.
oblivion is such a great music video
it's super cute
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JtH68PJIQLE
>>66097126
So cute, but also different that her other videos. Its seems to show more of Grimes the person than Grimes in character.
>>66097283
that's a good point
also, in other videos she uses versions of songs that are different than the studio ones
Didn't she do lesbian porn?
how the fuck is she STILL a meme here? jesus christ this board has bad taste
>>66097126
That video is terrifying though

are you on fucking meth?
a) this is one of their worst songs
b) on one of their worst albums
c) and they suck as a band in general
>tfw Grimes fans get to have normal, actual threads about Grime without it being derailed by samefaggery and copypastas like in Annie threads
Wow, a lot of you guys are pretty cool. Like some of you go further with the reverence than I would but that's fine. What really sucks is I have a daily to do list and this one item just stays on there, it reads "Contact her" and that's something I really would like to do, but I know no matter what it's a shot in the dark and would never work out how I would like it to. And I kinda want to just say fuck it and send an E-mail or whatever but I just don't because I don't want to hope she responds to random weirdos I don't know if it's self awareness or a hopeless paradox. Like what makes me better than a creepy autist? Being afraid?
That's my Realiti I guess you could say.
>>66098599
wtf is wrong with you people? go outside
Any new pics of her hairy legs or pits please?
Or any other /mu/ chick that doesn't shave either.
>>66098640
Funny, I wrote that coming back from a bar.
>>66098599
Don't worry anon, she's an autist too.
>>66082871
i have the same keyboard stand as grimes. its falling apart and i wouldnt rec it to anyone
>>66098640
what's wrong with you dude? you're on 4chan, too, wasting your time
>>66098599
what do you want to send her?
>>66098640
>go outside at 2:30 in the morning
Thank you for that one
Fucking PETERBOROUGH???? ILL tell you where i came from and what will happen overnight and your bullshit employees and pricing but this is CANADA fuck I love it
>>66099282
Not quite sure, basically my intent is learning about Claire and her creation of Grimes. She seems super cool and I would like to be friends.
>>66067875
Visions, maybe. Art Angels is fall music. Her early stuff is winter music. Visions can be pretty wintry too.
>>66098412
>80 posters
>4 pages
We have the best threads, I'm so proud
>>66097680
Maybe one day, I hope that it will be with Hana
>>66099511
you have to get her interested in talking to you, somehow
If you could go back in time and meet Grimes at her college years. What would you say/do to her?
>>66099836
Yeah, you guys are making me anxious thinking about it.
>>66088478
1. Unknown Track - Grimes (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uWFTyamEZrU) Personal favourite, might not be entry level per se.
Flesh Without Blood - Love the slow build, the video and if it's in fact about shitty fans the statement.
Rosa - Very rough but at it's core a solid track.
Skin - Feels like someone spinning around behind you, I'll probably go deaf early in life for my headphone listening but tracks like this make me feel like it's worth it.
REALiTi - Video version preferably. The subject matter is a smack upside the head, might be a bit melodramatic but It sort of freed me from fearing death and revering life.
California - If you don't adore her after watching this video I don't know what to tell you.
>>66099909
I'd teach her to meditate
>>66100057
to save her from those awful years, I don't know if it'd be possible though
>>66099909
Always have a condom with you, Claire. You will never know when you will need it :^)
>>66100198
I'm sad as fuck now
>>66100198
I don't get it
>>66100258
yeah im bit lost on this one
>>66100217
>>66100258
>>66100357
Moving along.
Being realistic I'd probably get stoned and let her go on and on about her interests at the time.
>>66096919
You lost.
>>66098343
>their
Shitty trolling. Do your homework fuckwit.
>>66098412
Shame about that. You can't have a normal discussion in Annie threads because it's a faggot (or maybe more than one) that posts non-stop hate threads and stupid memes. Just listen to her music and avoid those cesspools.
>>66074032
What headphones?
>>66100046
>not Circumambient
>>66099548
Visions is fall music, Art Angels is summery as it gets. Halfaxa is wintery and Geidi Primes clearly suited for spring.
>>66100046
What about Be a Body, Nightmusic and Symphonia IX? These are outstanding tracks that never get old.
>>66101679
>their
Haha look again. There is nothin right in that comment. It's a bit ironic calling him a fuckwit when you're clearly falling for his bait.
>>66101757
Good point, you need to rank her songs just right to get her attention.
Untitled song is DOA. Scream is essential, you won't make 1st base without it.
>>66101849
I know it's nothing right, but that fuckwit talking about "their" like Grimes is band shows that he doesn't have any idea who is her. Hence the shitty trolling.
I'm not falling for the bait, I just called him out on his own bullshit.
>>66080734
It's not even that bad, the dubstep just kills it.
>>66101849
>bait
it's shitposting, newfriend
>>66100258
>>66100357
You don't know about her abortion?
>>66101940
Go is a fun song. What's not to like about it?
Something to read (Grimes discussing her equipment and studio) before this thread dies.
>>66101961
>Shitposting can't be bait
Is this your first time?
>>66102019
I want her to show off her hairy legs and pits, not stupid equipment, who gives a shit.
>>66101965
I didn't see a condom.
>>66102203
That's all folks.
>>66102212
No, you didn't..
>>66102203
I love how excited she gets about building her own sample packs. Whoever was enumerating the various jobs she does forget to mention sound engineer.
>>66102543
>Population control should be a huge priority
Maybe she can start with herself then.
>>66102568
You're a dumbass.
I LOVE CLAIRE BOUCHER INB4 404
