Can someone get a hold of Jack and let him know I'll be very disappointed if he doesn't play upstairs at els this tour?
How much of these podcasts are ads? I have a hard time with podcasts in general and the two hours is pretty daunting, but the content seems awesome
10ish minutes of ads, maybe? I skip through them so I don't know for sure. There's an ad at the beginning and an ad break between each of the three songs featured. Their Patreon has video episodes which I assume are ad-free but I haven't signed up. I don't really notice the length because this is shorter than most of my favorite podcasts. Truly is the best music production podcast out there though, and Jack's episodes are some of the best.
Revisited s/t this morning. Some of it is so good, the first handful of songs in particular are a perfect meeting point for the songwriting, the other band members’ contributions, and Jack’s studio wizardry. But overall the mood after Tiny Moves is a real slog, especially in comparison to the new one. His best work almost universally makes sure to have fun and as high quality as a lot of s/t is it’s just desperately missing that outside of a couple songs. the day that Kobe fell from the sky/the day that Kendall Pepsi smiled is a hall of fame funny bad line
night and day. they usually deep dive on 3 songs for about 30min each, but it is much more production focused. both 1975 episodes are fantastic if you're into that band.
I got the ELS pressing, showed up yesterday. Songs are all the same, mix is maybe a little different? I’m not great at describing these things lol but compared to the stream its warmer, more midrange and a little more distorted/buzzy. Hear it most in his vocal.
My package came with the ELS one and a copy of the regular album instead of the Tamarind one, so I'm waiting to see how support handles that haha
For it to happen to (at least) three of us here, I'm assuming there was some sort of warehouse labeling issue. I got a reply from them saying they'd work on getting the Tamarind copy out and that they'd follow up with info about me sending back the regular copy.
