it's as much that immersion in a single sonic vision like this for such a long time is kinda rare for r&b.

dope
worst threat to the album's rep is if she just keeps dropping stray tracks throughout the year that work better as standalone tracks than most of Goldenheart
― some dude, Wednesday, 13 March 2013 16:17 (eleven years ago) link
agree but for the moment she's keeping it to stuff that's obviously just lying around and that only works as a giveaway - like "bum bum" is v fun but it's just a swizzified "lost ones" that would be disappointing if part of a proper release
― flamenco drop (lex pretend), Wednesday, 13 March 2013 16:46 (eleven years ago) link
pretty funny how "love on the rocks" nails the current mike will made it aesthetic so casually though
it's like dawn is just going "u know i could do this if i wanted"

wow I love the way the vocals fragments crystallize into a wall of solid info at the end

I've been realizing there's that certain pingy synth sound at the beginning of this that I associate with progressive house that I cannot deal with at all. Pops up a few times on Goldenheart too. This song is really good tho! I just cringed at the intro.
― The Reverend, Saturday, 6 April 2013 19:41 (eleven years ago) link
Rev I completely agree with you about liking the Winter EP more than Goldenheart; in my estimate, there's something very free and spontaneous and rule-breaking about those songs whereas Goldenheart feels a little stiff from adhering to the template
― que sera sriracha (Drugs A. Money), Saturday, 6 April 2013 19:45 (eleven years ago) link
Yeah, I hadn't really thought about it in those terms, but something about Goldenheart does feel a bit...studied.
― The Reverend, Saturday, 6 April 2013 19:49 (eleven years ago) link
still listening to goldenheart a lot, still feel it opens up a little more and in a different way every time
"return of a queen" is a fucking imperious monster of a song

"Break of Dawn" came up on shuffle and I hadn't realized just how insipid it is til now. Feels about two hours long in its own right. :/

― H-E-double-s1ockisticks (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 18 April 2013 16:03 (eleven years ago) link
it's getting to the stage where it's a real shame she's just dropping tracks of this quality randomly and individually, "empty room" and "movie" in particular are pretty stunning, could've made for a pretty great stopgap mixtape/EP
― flamenco drop (lex pretend), Thursday, 18 April 2013 17:24 (eleven years ago) link
yeah it'll be interesting to see if these get collected in any official/retail form, i wonder if this is like Whiteout where it's stuff all done after the album that she's impatient to let people hear.
― some dude, Thursday, 18 April 2013 17:28 (eleven years ago) link
i've only been paying cursory attention but i think some of them have been old old stuff, from the a telltale heart era or before, and maybe others are just stuff she's been doing recently that she feels won't fit on to blackheart...
― flamenco drop (lex pretend), Thursday, 18 April 2013 17:34 (eleven years ago) link
i think it was insinuated on her tumblr that some of these are actually *old* tracks
― 乒乓, Thursday, 18 April 2013 17:46 (eleven years ago) link
yeah, people are commenting along the lines of "oh man, i'm glad to hear this cleaned up finally!"

mmm this is not what i was really expecting or wanting
the danity kane reunion rumours floating around are odd, it really doesn't seem to fit in with dawn's uh ~branding~ and she's still talking about the trilogy?
― lex pretend, Tuesday, 11 June 2013 21:48 (ten years ago) link
honestly if they just want to do something together without diddy telling them whether they're a group or not just because they want to i think that's kind of sweet.
― treeship journey to stars hollow (some dude), Tuesday, 11 June 2013 21:49 (ten years ago) link
oh don't get me wrong i'd be very pro a DK reunion, i was a fan! i just don't really see how it would fit in with dawn's solo career unless it was just, like, a one-off single?
― lex pretend, Tuesday, 11 June 2013 21:51 (ten years ago) link
that seems like a weird question given how much music she's released in the space of a year recently
― treeship journey to stars hollow (some dude), Tuesday, 11 June 2013 22:12 (ten years ago) link
BlackHeart is out October 7, 2013. Apparently she's working with an entirely new team and according to her Twitter, there are no collaborations with Druski on the album at all...
― twinkin' and drinkin' and ready to fly (Alex in Montreal), Sunday, 16 June 2013 20:09 (ten years ago) link
The Riot/Northern Lights video is also cancelled due to a change in team... Not sure what's up. But things seem to still be moving forward.
― twinkin' and drinkin' and ready to fly (Alex in Montreal), Sunday, 16 June 2013 20:10 (ten years ago) link
are the stray tracks that have come out in the last few months Druski productions? it'd be such a shame if those never end up on an album or EP.
― ramona & yeezus (some dude), Sunday, 16 June 2013 20:17 (ten years ago) link
Didn't she say before that she's been saving tracks for BlackHeart and uh... RedemptionHeart or whatever the hell it was?
― The Reverend, Sunday, 16 June 2013 21:21 (ten years ago) link
And seems odd to hear this news just days after Druski released a new song with her vocals.
