Politely discuss the Canadian musical wunderkind Grimes.

Check out this newly released podcast:

http://songexploder.net/grimes

...where Grimes herself goes stem by musical stem through the song "Kill V. Maim" and describes in detail its creation process.

>>66401335
Grimes generals typically accrue upwards of 50 contributors and reach bump limit between 300-400 posts. And that's when she isn't even actively releasing new music...

Would Grimes dress and act like a normal person if you had dinner with her parents?
>>
>>66404271
I don't think so, if you listen to the podcast in the op she says she likes upsetting her parents
>>
>WHO: Grimes, aka Claire Boucher, the Montreal experimental weirdo unintentionally gunning for the big time.
>ALBUM: The batshit, brilliant and massively poppy 'Art Angels'.
>WHY: This was 2015's finest album, no doubt about it. It took all the odd magic that made Boucher's earlier releases so special and made them accessible without compromising any of her personality. Basically it pulled off the most difficult balancing act in music while providing us with some of the best songs she's ever written.
>LISTEN: 'Kill V Maim', the creme de la creme of Grimes' back catalogue.

Grimes is a small and thin person. Her nose, eyes and ears may look big because she has a small round face. It's a matter of proportions. But as you know, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Some like her, some don't. I find her attractive.

>'I bared blue Dragvandill,
>Who bit not the buckler,
>Atli the Short so blunted
>All edge by his spells.
>Straining my strength I grappled,
>Staggered the wordy foeman;
>My tooth I bade bite him,
>Best of swords at need.'
http://sagadb.org/egils_saga.en


>Dragvandil was the sword of Egil Skallagrimsson, a Viking skald and the great anti-hero of Icelandic literature.
>Several accounts tell of him slaughtering as many as 20 or more armed men single-handedly and even dispatching a feared berserker with relative ease. In spite of this, he was considered a healer, and his saga tells of him curing a girl who had been ill for quite some time where all other efforts had proven futile. In some ways he resembled his god Odin: breaking his oaths, killing for trifles, and practicing sorcery.

>>66413967

>Generally speaking, there are a series of things in my life that I become obsessed with at any given time (during the making of Geidi Primes I was particularly influenced by my escape into science fiction and the study of the physical sciences). And whatever my weird mood might be I tend to abstractly create some kind of homage to it artistically and, at this point in my life, that happens to be through music. I guess that sounds weird but Halfaxa is sort of my ‘medieval’ album. I wanted to attempt to evoke the feeling of believing in God in a very Medieval Christian way. 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, and that the art that you are experiencing (visually, architecturally, sonically etc) is related to a higher platonic, metaphysical space, or comes directly from it through the medium of the artistic prophet. Hildegard von Bingen is my idol right now, and I feel like she would be a good example of someone through whome God spoke and beautiful music was made via her body by a divine being (or so she claims, and I’d like to believe). I feel like art in the middle ages was always addressing something beyond earthly experience, and I want to do the same. But I wanted it to be vague as to what it is beyond earthly experience that is being addressed. And I wanted the music to feel really good addictive. I love music that is very smooth to the ears, and has lots of low frequencies as I find high frequencies very grating.

Technically it would make more sense to call Halfaxa God-house than witch-house.

I really like Grimes, but the more I watch of her, the more convinced I become that she is some sort of an illusion. She is just to perfect for the musical/cultural slot she is filling. She seems like she was genetically designed at the Advanced Club Kid Research Facility.

Think about it: She's "white," but she has the perfect skin, height and elegant limbs of an Asian woman. Alternatively, her features (especially nose and eyes) would be completely natural looking on a woman with dark brown skin. Don't you think she'd make a GORGEOUS black woman? I do.

She is basically the simultaneous ideal of Asian, black and white people- but she happens to have very white skin, which makes her more widely advertisable. Her face might be a little narrow and pointy to make a classically beautiful Indian woman, or other near-eastern people, but I'll bet they would still relate to her if her skin were changed into some familiar color range. Personally, I like looking at white blonds, but I'm always suspicious of them. They're constantly up to some scheme or another. And almost never does it involve making me happier.

So you missed me, ACKRF. Nice try, but until you come up with an Indian girl who has the curves of a black girl, the complexion of an Asian girl, the voice of an Irish girl and the "F it - let's just screw things up" attitude of an American girl, I won't be buying your product. So basically, I'm saying that Grimes is unbelievable. Not unbelievable as in "awesome," though I like her work, but unbelievable in the sense that I have a hard time believing that she was born of woman, and not out of some test tube in Japan. Or she could just exist as a digital avatar, not flesh and blood. Just from Canada? I've been to Canada. That's a really weak cover story.

Ha. You see, old boy, that's the broken link in the chain. It's without much hesitation that I bring forth new evidence for you to look over so you may revise your hypothesis. Yes this rather boggling new discovery I have made lays out in great detail the ultimate flaw in your, admittedly well thought out and researched but nonetheless, incorrect proposal.

Yes you see I came to this conclusion when I mulled over this potential truth. After all, I did indeed hope for it to be the truth. I felt it muddied the true meaning behind my obsession, but in all actuality after I had provided the evidence signed and sealed and had time to process it, I came to the startling conclusion that my amygdala didn't give a single flying fuck about my wishes and... well, old chap, it's with a great heavy heart that I have to inform you of the following fact.

in the past, claire has talked about wanting to be a part of a cultural dialogue. to cement her art forever in that way. i have to wonder if she's dissatisfied in exactly the dialogue that it's sparked.

she's expressed disdain for meaningless things in the past. i wonder just how annoyed she is with the fact that the "cultural dialogue" that surrounds her art is about how she doesn't shave her legs, and the further she gets in her career the worse it gets. she poured her heart out and expressed her pain and in the end the prize she got was people only touching on the superficial and super shallow bits they can cling onto with grimes. and its not like she's been silent on it either, she's spoke out about it but everybody ignored her because they'd rather talk about how cute she is.

every recent interview shes done, i dont know, she seems to have gotten more laissez faire about it, but not really that she cares any less. it seems like theres an undercurrent of jaded frustration at the fact that expressing her jaded frustration at the shallow discussion surrounding her career work is simply put to the side because people would rather talk about her hairy armpits and her boyfriends. as though the more her career progresses the more exacerbated cynicism is layered on top of each other. even though she consistently only tries to engage with meaningful discussion, nothing stops the endless tide of people wanting to talk about feminism and drug habits instead of her art. or even the people who compare her to other artists whom she sees herself as having nothing in common with.

no wonder she doesnt read her own media, no wonder she doesnt read fan shit. reading it must feel like small little slaps to the face, and you know they mean the best... but its just not what you expected or wanted.
>>
>>66420186
all i ask of you, /mu/tants, is to take some time to meditate on this today and keep in mind your conclusion the next time you want to shitpost about your waifu, even if you think it's being super respectful.

im sure shit like this that tries to understand her when she's offered so little to the public eye is just as annoying as people posting about her nipples showing through her shirt.

>>66420769
nah

she'd only flirt if they were super talented too which made her respect them, but then you have a double entendre situation which are both more likely:

1.) she is too starstruck to flirt and just sort of stands there and stares with a stupid look on her face, until she realizes what she's doing and apologizes and never talks to them again out of embarrassment

2.) she doesn't flirt because she doesn't want to come off as a creepy weirdo/doesn't want them to feel objectified.

sorry not everything is grimes related

No. Maybe she is one of the oldest true fans but I'm pretty sure no one is obsessed like me.

One of Grimes' most underrated talents is her ability to masterly handle her own PR. Apart from her tendency to speak heavily in-context during interviews, everything you see/hear about her is carefully framed by her for public consumption (notice how virtually every single semi-embarrassing snapshot of her floating around was either taken and publicly distributed by her personally or a close and with her active involveinvolvemn essence, by constantly cultivating a slightly embarrassing impression of herself in the general public, she is preemptively negating the sort of pull that paparazzi would normally have on a celebrity of her stature (because the power of paparazzi is built on scandal and exclusives, and there is nothing particularly scandalous or exclusive about a photo of Grimes looking like shit out like she's stoned.) It's an active strategy she's been pursuing for years, and she has even talked about it openly.

Yeah, paparazzis can't just pick some ugly pics with her and try to shame her. She also doesn't pretend she's looking perfect all the time. In fact she said:

G: If you’re performing, the way you dress, even if it’s just a shirt and pants, is a statement in itself whether you like it or not. I see fashion as a positive thing. I see it as a way to enhance the project, or as a whole other aspect that I can play with and use to my advantage. Though I make sure that I look like trash about 20% of the time so no one’s ever saying, “That’s what she looks like without makeup.” It’s like, “Everyone knows.”

I love this song. Somehow it always seems forgotten.

Oy... Let's try this again, shall we?

One of Grimes' most underrated talents is her ability to masterly handle her own PR. Apart from her tendency to speak heavily in-context during interviews, virtually everything you see/hear about her is carefully framed by her for public consumption (notice how nearly every single semi-embarrassing snapshot of her floating around the web was either taken and distributed by her personally or clearly by way of a close friend.)

In essence, by constantly cultivating a slightly embarrassing public image of herself, she preemptively negates the sort of pull that paparazzi would normally have on a celebrity of her stature (remember - the power of paparazzi lies in building scandal through exclusives, and there is nothing exclusive about a photo of Grimes looking like shit or APPEARING to be stoned.)

It's an active strategy she's been pursuing for years - she's even talked about it openly:

Explain why people talk so much about her even if her latest album was out over half a year ago.
>>
>>66423433
well these threads were pretty fucking dead until the California MV was released.

We've uncovered new and rare Grimes facts, came up with some memes, got more pictures, etc.

People just can't stop talking about the best artist of the decade!
>>
>>66423433
There's a lot to be said about her creative output because there is so much of it.

Ok. I love her but I'm quite surprised that she's so popular on this board.
>>
>>66423485
Well she would say that it's Beyonce, but i would say that she at least had the potential to become even greater.
>>
>>66423552
Shame that Beyonce needs so many collaborators for her music: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lemonade_%28Beyonc%C3%A9_album%29#Track_listing
>>
>>66423596
but she is insanely impressive nonetheless
>>
>>66423596
especially taking into consideration the cultural dialog which she has created
>>
>>66423640
She's talented but not my style tho. I don't understand why Grimes likes her so much.
>>
>>66423485
literally the coolest person in the world
>>
>>66423683
I wouldn't pretend to know why Claire likes her since she is her own, but she has become quite the cultural force that inspires women everywhere to emancipate themselves and take their lives into their own hands, plus she's powerful voice for the black communities who feel disenfranchised, which is a matter Claire cares about. Other than, that she is just an incredible singer and an amazing performer and only a few people can really rival her voice.

>>66423158
Holy shit she talks about her mustache and shit, platinum content.
