man i'm impressed as hell that he produced "...all" -- that's a pretty damn nuanced take on dance music imo

even fucking "Broads" kind of grew on me

haha it's the opposite for me, i only really care about 3-4 songs of this, albeit i REALLY care about those, but that's the same ratio as like the melanie fiona album, which this series isn't actually substantially more interesting than

and the estelle album is way better
and like there are more amazing new nikkiya tracks this year than miguel ones :(
the estelle album is not better
― fapper don (J0rdan S.), Saturday, 2 June 2012 07:19 (eleven years ago) link
and neither was that old nikkiya album but i haven't heard the reissue
maybe they're not ~faded~ enough for you but they are definitely more enjoyable to me. just better songs, better production, singers you want to spend more time with...miguel is trying very hard to be an auteur rather than the semi-anonymous guy behind "sure thing" but in the process hasn't remotely come close to "sure thing"s impeccable standard
― kanye kardashian (lex pretend), Saturday, 2 June 2012 07:43 (eleven years ago) link
and i really love "...all" but c'mon FELLOW OUTCASTS! AND WEIRDOS! stfu you try-hard

maybe they're not ~faded~ enough for you
oh fuck off

also, i do want to spend time with miguel. in bed.
― The Reverend, Saturday, 2 June 2012 08:27 (eleven years ago) link
trying to reduce miguel to some tumblr-wave thing is so NAGL.
and he's done at least 5 songs better than "sure thing"
― The Reverend, Saturday, 2 June 2012 08:29 (eleven years ago) link
i'm pretty sure if i was forced to spend time with estelle i'd want to cut my head off in short order.
― The Reverend, Saturday, 2 June 2012 08:36 (eleven years ago) link
"sure thing" is great, but so are "adorn", "arch & point", "...all", c'mon. dunno why it always has to be this vs. that, devolve to bickering abt the cultural positioning. weirdo art outcast is no more contrived than any other pop persona.

"adorn" is now an OFFICIAL SINGLE + a minute longer
will take some time to get used to the new version but his singing at the end is fantastic imo

Can we also talk about how the synths riff that emerges just around/after the point where the Art Dealer Chic Vol. 1 version trailed off is very very Prince's "If I Was Ur Girlfriend"?

didn't think it was really missing anything before but it definitely feels more complete now, love the bridge xpost

Brevity was a big part of Adorn's mystique, but I'm not one to complain about more of a good thing.
One of the blogs I follow shared the track and teased "Bigger news to follow..." which I can only imagine means an album announcement.
― Evan R, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:09 (eleven years ago) link
lovely.
this morning "Arch n Point" became my most played 2012 song.

literally just clapped my hands to the side of my face and exclaimed "OH MY FUCKING LORD" when I got to the end of the new version

i don't really feel that this adds much to the song, and the false stop is kind of jarring, but it's fine
― k3vin k., Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:29 (eleven years ago) link
on the other hand if this is your first time hearing it there's no sense that the song faffs around.
― a regina spektor is haunting europe (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:31 (eleven years ago) link
yeah it still sounds weird to me... but i don't think that's really unexpected considering how attached i am to the original version
it still sounds great tho, and i feel less weird about naming it my favorite song of 2012 (so far) now that it's an actual single
― J0rdan S., Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:36 (eleven years ago) link
I feel like the best song of the year just got ten times better.
― The Reverend, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 21:39 (eleven years ago) link
and yeah his voice is terrific. As much as I love the tension borne of restraint in A&P the abandon in "All" and the love-man vigor here are just as satisfying.
