blood orange

And dev's gonna shake it
Like a red node

xp good q, they have similar flairs for proposing trolling mergers i guess, noades of partisan football institutions, hynes of listlessness and vivacity

voted zavon hines

noades had some interesting ideas about race and division of labour

ha wait is rtc britIsh, does music critic ilx take its marching orders from A BRITISHES

FTR that's primarily the reason for the comparison, all these florid Britishisms in the nodes

But I love ya man, hope we can wriggle together one day

Also the lede in the pfork review .... Uhhhh

yeah, i'm surprised no one has brought this one up here or elsewhere yet. wtf

I mean eff Rtc marching orders it's less abt what he likes although he does have one of ilx's stronger hit/miss ratios (like Andy k, Tim f, a few others)

More that when he agrees w you that something is some emperors new clothes shit he's v v good at tearing it to pieces w a v gentle pen stroke.

That said I haven't listened to blood orange beyond the single, this is more a general distrust of the dev hynes aesthetic

cant believe i uncovered such a fucked up conspiracy

i'm right here ffs, were u all born in a barn, a barn called america

yes, its darn nice barn tho

we have clotheslines and cubbyholes and comfort blankets, it rules

Jeez that's horrible

damn rip lil dog

aw man

Oh man, that's terrible.

classy stuff from the guardian...http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2013/dec/19/dev-hynes-puppy-burnt-kickstarters-charity-cases-blood-orange

horrible article.

meanwhile: http://bloodorangeforever.tumblr.com/

That article is terrible. Hynes' girlfriend's mother setting up a donation page after a devastating fire is not "crowdfunding". Basically a very poorly timed excuse to hate on Zosia Mamet.

vagenda plumbing new depths there, which i didn't think was even possible for them

fyi they used kickstarter to fund their dim-witted, terrible blog

also, literally using the "it was just a bit of fun" defence rn (with a side helping of "mummy, twitter's being mean")

also, vagenda's previous peak moment: https://twitter.com/VagendaMagazine/status/410722360400965632

Kanye West has synesthesia!

thank god

That post was an A flat sus chord

#normcore

http://nymag.com/thecut/2014/02/normcore-fashion-trend.html

Q: If #normcore was a chord, which chord would it be?

A: Chorduroy!

why would it be a chord what kind of joke is that

That post is sounding a little pitchy

lol

"sus chord" Haah

Dope imo

who were the dev hyneses of previous musical eras?

I like this dude's album but I'm always like "wait, what's happening?" when suddenly it turns into rawkus rap

otm

i always forget that stuff is on there when i put it on

i made a playlist and took those songs off + put everythings embarrassing and the solange song on B-)

despot's verse is actually pretty fire though

the grime one i can't fuck with though

I like the Despot track it always just takes me by surprise trying to figure out what I cued up after Blood Orange.

The only album I have heard from them/him? is Cupid Deluxe and I love it, in the same vein as Solange and that Drake song that sounds like a song. Is the new or the previous album good?

Just investigated and you all already knew this but Blood Orange produced Solange's Losing You which also sounds like the inspiration to Hold On We're Going Home so it seems like he is the reason I like those two.

i used to be all "he is surely the reason i like both 'losing you' and 'everything is embarrassing'" but his own records are not v compelling at all, he is not a very convincing performer despite the super obvious influences he wears on his sleeve

like srsly imagine how bad "everything is embarrasing" could easily have been had he recorded it himself: https://soundcloud.com/user43036935/dev-hynes-everything-is-embarrassing-demo

Leaked demo of a track apparently sent to Britney for "Britney Jean". Kinda chillwavey. I like it. https://soundcloud.com/user43036935/dev-hynes-britney-demo-1-no
