Someone tweeted him showing that that mash-up had already been done (probably not as well but)

when I found out that this was the same guy who'd done brodyquest who was also the mash up guy it blew my mind

THE SKURJ OF FAKE NEWS. (kingfish), Sunday, 29 January 2017 01:50 (seven years ago) link

T.I.M.E. actually has some interesting comments on Youtube. The top thread is about the function of the All Star sample at the end. A commenter thinks it undercuts the emotion of the song, whereas Neil chimes in and says that it was meant to "return to the memeverse gently".

lol canyon.mid @ the end

whoa, I totally forgot about the bonus tracks on Spirit Phone, some of these are incredible

frogbs, Thursday, 2 February 2017 14:39 (seven years ago) link

This guy gives me the fucking creeps and everything of his that I've seen and heard is pervasively smug and/or deeply unfunny. I think the only reason I partially liked Spirit Phone for like a week was because it was a particularly dry spell for vaguely-Cardiacsy-pop-prog-whatever.

TIME is so good

nxd, Thursday, 2 February 2017 15:30 (seven years ago) link

And yeah, sorry to be 'that guy' but I had to get that off my chest.

I feel much better now, please continue!

ultros ultros-ghali, Thursday, 2 February 2017 15:30 (seven years ago) link

Why does he give you the creeps?

jmm, Thursday, 2 February 2017 15:30 (seven years ago) link

they found so many scorpions inside his lungs
when he died

I Am In Atlanta And Thug Is Young (imago), Thursday, 2 February 2017 15:40 (seven years ago) link

xp I don't even know, honestly, there's just something about this guy that makes me want to bolt; almost definitely has more to do with me than him but I stand by everything else.

ultros ultros-ghali, Thursday, 2 February 2017 15:44 (seven years ago) link

sleek affectless preternaturally gifted internet machine. he is the uncanny valley, almost human but not quite

ok finally got around to listening to the rest of this and wow @ T.I.M.E.

I think this Cicierega-inspired mashup is actually an improvement on "ACVC"

He made a pretty cool Twitter account

some outtakes from the mashup albums. a lot of it is unfinished and/or doesn't really work, but there's still some entertaining stuff here. "Sit on You" particularly

frogbs, Wednesday, 18 September 2019 12:52 (four years ago) link

'Don't' is the jewel in that crown imo

imago, Wednesday, 18 September 2019 13:08 (four years ago) link

(and 'Avril', yes obv)

imago, Wednesday, 18 September 2019 13:13 (four years ago) link

couldn't tell if "Don't" was brilliant or one of the worst things ever made honestly

XTC reference in "Avril" made me laugh a lot

"Who" is pretty fun too

frogbs, Wednesday, 18 September 2019 13:16 (four years ago) link

one year passes...

Mouth Dreams out in a few hours. BEST!

imago, Wednesday, 30 September 2020 20:48 (three years ago) link

definitely saving this one for Friday night. I'm afraid the track titles themselves will be spoilers

frogbs, Wednesday, 30 September 2020 20:58 (three years ago) link

yes!!!

the typo doer (Simon H.), Wednesday, 30 September 2020 21:22 (three years ago) link

there's one near the end that is beyond all things

imago, Thursday, 1 October 2020 02:14 (three years ago) link

each of these is ruining my life in a different way

mellon collie and the infinite bradness (BradNelson), Thursday, 1 October 2020 02:16 (three years ago) link

neil and demi are the only good things on the internet, so glad they both returned with gifts this month

the typo doer (Simon H.), Thursday, 1 October 2020 02:18 (three years ago) link

and i *do* wanna miss a thing

mellon collie and the infinite bradness (BradNelson), Thursday, 1 October 2020 02:21 (three years ago) link

i don't want to spoil much more of this for others but my brain absolutely split in half during one of the tracks in the latter half of this, guess which one

mellon collie and the infinite bradness (BradNelson), Thursday, 1 October 2020 02:41 (three years ago) link

as usual these are getting progressively more illegal

ciderpress, Thursday, 1 October 2020 02:42 (three years ago) link

"10,000 spoons" is a hit

mellon collie and the infinite bradness (BradNelson), Thursday, 1 October 2020 02:55 (three years ago) link

tbh extending the riff on my own worst enemy is the thing that made me laugh the hardest on the whole record

ciderpress, Thursday, 1 October 2020 03:10 (three years ago) link

can't believe I'm watching the Milwaukee Brewers instead of listening to this rn

frogbs, Thursday, 1 October 2020 03:13 (three years ago) link

ciderpress, Thursday, 1 October 2020 03:17 (three years ago) link
