Is anyone anticipating the new Diddy album?

This Dirty Money shit, it ain't for everybody, man. It's a motherfuckin' vibe, it's for motherfuckers that's patient, motherfuckers that like to take their time, and close their eyes, and dream.

"My Heart" is gorgeous.

i just listen to this twice in a row on big hedaphonessssssssss

I might have to bite the bullet and sign up for Beatport, whatever that is, so I can download this and take a long ride to it this weekend

this is wonderful to just vibe to on the train

is that dawn on "let's go"?

it is, she's listed as a vocalist in the credits for that song

they write her name as dawn richards tho lol

OK so I signed up, but it will only let me download individual tracks. Each one is 40 megabytes and an AIFF file.

I am seriously not used to this level of inconvenience. Livemixtape this shit, Diddy.

maybe google "puff daddy guy gerber 1111 download" and click on the top result idk

This Finnegan's Wake shit, it ain't for everybody, man. It's a motherfuckin' vibe, it's for motherfuckers that's patient, motherfuckers that like to take their time, and close their eyes, and dream.

tru

could use a little more galactic ecstasy tbh

Wasn't expecting to hear G. Dep...

Is he uncredited? Kind of weird that he's on there, I don't think he's been signed to Bad Boy for a long time.

after a few listens i've kinda decided this is about half ordinary half amazing, or maybe the ratio's more 40-60 respectively. think the run of tracks from "indian summer" to "my heart" is pretty great, groove on "indian summer" is impeccable in particular, and they generate a momentum which "my heart" gorgeously undermines. don't think "angels" or "tourist trap" really work, mostly bc "angels" and "hello good morning" aren't the last train hooks i'd want folded into housier textures. regardless i have a lot of affection for this thing mostly for how it reminds me that the dirty money project is responsible for my favorite music of the last few years

wonder what the guy-diddy ratio is and what their process was

guessing its mostly guy. some hooks (mostly "my heart") sound specifically written for this and others sound possibly sourced from dirty money tracks we haven't heard yet?

50% guy making tracks, 50% puff dancing around the studio, eating ice cream and wandering into the booth to read drafted tweets aloud

going with some dude's percentages

lol

what i like about the album is that you can really hear the ice cream

the scrape of cones against sound board

OH SHIT I MISSED THAT THIS WAS OUT WHY DID NONE OF YOU TELL ME YOU'RE ALL FIRED

have an ice cream

still haven't figured out whether evan was fronting about not knowing what beatport is

I woke up at 11:11 this morning.

what i like about the album is that you can really hear the ice cream

ok so officially the first time I completely lost my shit was about 2 minutes into "I Hear Her Calling Me"

the second was at the pitchshifted "Hello Good Morning" vocals that audaciously just kind of sit there in spite of the track's motion, immovable by the beat

the third was at the gorgeous vocals on "Let Go"

"Broken Windows" and "Floating Messiah" are especially beautiful

let go is really heady, I need more loverman techno in my life

ayo turn those horns up man

i wrote about this, one day it'll be somewhere

So I finally caught up with '11 11'. Really good. And seems to have been largely ignored, even (relatively speaking) around here. I hope it'll get some recognition in the EOY poll at least.

Brad did your piece ever pop up?

haha not yet! may give up and just post it on my blog in a few weeks

gonna fall asleep to this record tonight yeahhhh

fwiw i saw an interview with guy gerber re 1111 and iirc puff's spec was "i want to do something that will be played in rooms that i'm not supposed to be in"

these fantasies will keep passing each other by like ships in the night but seeing the news about canvassing the uk makes it fun to think about how 1111 might have worked had diddy happened to party with like jamie jones or dusky or christoph or whoever, maybe even a premonition of deep tech in some ways
