Copeland Band • Page 20

Coffee's great, I can deal with people loving that song more.

 

Downtown Lakeland is nice. The rest of Lakeland is very much not, haha.

I like "Walking Downtown," but it's not one of my top songs on the album. I never realized so many people didn't like it until this thread.

 

This is my impression of the place as well. Surprised there's not a line about the ten thousand swan statues lol

 

I grew up in Tampa, and every time we were in Lakeland we were always like, "So, what's the with the swans? Can we leave now?"

 

The Copeland song that gets the most unwarranted hate is Kite. Love that song so much.

 

i didnt know kite got hate. but i dont like kite

 

Kite is something I typically skip over, but it is an okay song. I don't particularly like the melody of the pre-chorus. Feels like it belongs in a carnival which takes me out of the music. I love the lyrics though

 

I LOVE IT TOO.

Just needed to say that.

 

carnival melody is amazing. Kite haters be crazy.

 

I love Kite.

 

Walking Downtown was the first Copeland song I had ever heard so I don't think I could ever hate it.

 

Wonder if this has anything to do with half their discography suddenly no longer being on Spotify.

 

Maybe they took off whatever they have complete control over because fuck spotify.

 

Just sitting here on my deck on a beautiful Saturday afternoon playing fetch with my dogs, drinking coffee, listening to You Are My Sunshine and loving life.

 

What kind of synth is in the beginning The Day I Lost My Voice and in the background of the verses in Should You Return?

Ive heard it in lots of other stuff too. Suppose its a woodwind plugin or something.

 

That would be a mellotron, Aaron has been using them since their first record. Essentially a sampled woodwind in this case.

 

Just a vst right? Or do you know if he has that sound on a synth? I know he uses a Microkorg. I'm starting to get into synths and I was listening to YAMS yesterday. Thanks!

 

I wonder if or when we will get a follow up to ixora, it's okay if we don't but damn I love that record

 

I think Aaron's said they'll make one and I think it was looking like we might get one late next year or something like that. Not sure but I'd guess about then or 2018. I definitely think it'll happen though.

 

Boy let me tell you what this band right is a great band

 

Yeah they definitely have said there will be another record, but they aren't rushing anything, spending time in the "Ixora era" for a while

 

Ixora twin is really good. listened again today. by itself

 

I haven't listened to Twin by itself since a few weeks after it came out. Definitely listen to the original the most, but throw on the combined version pretty often too. Combined World Turn and Like A Lie are so good

 

Twin was cool but I always listen to the original.

 

I belive they use an actual mellotron as opposed to software, though you can definitely find some VSTs! Welcome to the fantastic world of synths, it's a good time.
