But we 25 00:01:09.359 --> 00:01:11.640 only gave him just barely a week, so we were 26 00:01:11.879 --> 00:01:13.879 not even totally sure that it was going to happen. 27 00:01:14.120 --> 00:01:16.400 On the day that we checked.

And like you also may not know this, 33 00:01:26.079 --> 00:01:30.159 but when things are coming out on Friday, generally you'll 34 00:01:30.159 --> 00:01:32.560 actually see him pop up on Thursday nights. 35 00:01:32.640 --> 00:01:35.640 For US West Coast, that would be nine pm Pacific time, 36 00:01:36.120 --> 00:01:39.319 which is midnight on the East Coast. Technically Friday. 37 00:01:39.359 --> 00:01:43.120 There totally so on Thursdays, So on Thursday night, Thursday. See, 38 00:01:43.159 --> 00:01:44.719 it was supposed to come out the twenty six, so 39 00:01:44.760 --> 00:01:48.079 on the twenty fifth, and even the twenty fifth, we 40 00:01:48.079 --> 00:01:50.920 we clicked over to Apple. Wasn't there yet? 41 00:01:51.000 --> 00:01:51.280 Yeah? 42 00:01:51.359 --> 00:01:54.319 I found it on Spotify. They were prompt yeat, like, oh, 43 00:01:54.400 --> 00:01:55.599 is it not going to come out on Apple? 44 00:01:55.840 --> 00:01:57.560 How long will it take? Will it take a week? 45 00:01:57.640 --> 00:01:58.599 We'll take a day. 46 00:01:58.719 --> 00:02:01.879 We had no idea, so weirdly I woke up at 47 00:02:01.920 --> 00:02:02.519 like four a. 48 00:02:02.640 --> 00:02:04.640 Yeah, random, this doesn't usually happen. 49 00:02:04.799 --> 00:02:08.800 I started at four am on on Friday, and I 50 00:02:08.879 --> 00:02:11.879 and we have Apple TV in our bedroom, so I 51 00:02:12.319 --> 00:02:16.960 went and I clicked it on and I found it 52 00:02:15.199 --> 00:02:17.879 so Apple Music. 53 00:02:18.919 --> 00:02:20.759 Go back to sleep and sleep a little bit better now, 54 00:02:20.840 --> 00:02:24.479 yeh know. We we like listened to it three times. 55 00:02:24.199 --> 00:02:29.840 We did, yeah, I don't fully remember. And we even 56 00:02:29.840 --> 00:02:33.039 went over we went onto to YouTube too and also 57 00:02:33.439 --> 00:02:35.560 listen to it on there, like you were like comparing 58 00:02:35.599 --> 00:02:38.879 it for a Yeah, it's funny. And also that was 59 00:02:38.960 --> 00:02:40.479 I think it was the first time I went ahead 60 00:02:40.479 --> 00:02:44.360 and pushed the band camp page live on Thursday night, 61 00:02:44.439 --> 00:02:46.280 like before we went to bed. I was like, you 62 00:02:46.319 --> 00:02:47.960 know what, I'm just gonna go ahead and push it 63 00:02:48.039 --> 00:02:49.879 live so that when people wake up, like even if 64 00:02:49.879 --> 00:02:52.879 they wake up, say in Australia or whatever, they'll have 65 00:02:52.919 --> 00:02:55.960 it on Friday morning. So that was kind of fun. 66 00:02:55.960 --> 00:02:58.000 That was a little bit different. I don't have like 67 00:02:58.039 --> 00:02:59.520 a ton of news this time. 68 00:03:01.280 --> 00:03:04.400 That means we'll have a slightly less than long episode. 69 00:03:04.400 --> 00:03:08.719 Probably maybe we have a lot of a listener commerce Yeah, yeah, 70 00:03:08.719 --> 00:03:11.080 I guess first should we should we talk a little 71 00:03:11.080 --> 00:03:13.719 bit about like our influences and stuff that went into. 72 00:03:13.520 --> 00:03:17.000 Okay, like yeah. Once we were finishing up Boss Mode, 73 00:03:17.080 --> 00:03:20.039 I was looking into my little our little cachet of 74 00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:24.360 songs I kind of got started and Logic Pro and 75 00:03:25.000 --> 00:03:26.479 I went through a few months ago and kind of 76 00:03:26.680 --> 00:03:29.680 color code rank them which ones I thought their most promising. 77 00:03:30.240 --> 00:03:32.919 This one was like second tier. Okay, But when I 78 00:03:32.960 --> 00:03:35.719 heard it again, like more recently, because we're probably the 79 00:03:35.759 --> 00:03:37.719 last listener and worked on it like a year or 80 00:03:37.759 --> 00:03:40.039 so ago. Anyway, I heard it this time, like like 81 00:03:40.080 --> 00:03:42.759 a month and a half or so ago, I go, oh, well, 82 00:03:43.039 --> 00:03:45.000 I heard a lot of promise with this one. I 83 00:03:45.039 --> 00:03:47.599 hear something really magical in the song. It was my 84 00:03:48.280 --> 00:03:52.159 quest to like fulfill that promise that I saw and 85 00:03:52.199 --> 00:03:54.680 the rough demo. So that's the one we went for. 86 00:03:55.400 --> 00:03:59.680 And I'm glad we waited on this one too, rather 87 00:03:59.719 --> 00:04:01.840 than released it last year. It would have been half 88 00:04:01.879 --> 00:04:05.520 as good. I think every time we make a new song, go, yeah, 89 00:04:05.520 --> 00:04:06.879 this one's awesome, this one's amazing. 90 00:04:06.919 --> 00:04:08.639 I know, it's kind of embarrassing when we look back 91 00:04:08.680 --> 00:04:09.599 on I really. 92 00:04:09.360 --> 00:04:12.120 Think on this one, okay, I think this might be 93 00:04:12.199 --> 00:04:14.280 one of our finest productions. 94 00:04:17.240 --> 00:04:19.839 I mean, at the risk of being Crims again, but 95 00:04:19.879 --> 00:04:21.839 we were like, wow, Bossmo is so great, like how 96 00:04:21.839 --> 00:04:26.199 were we gonna do something like at Mossmo quality? But 97 00:04:26.240 --> 00:04:29.600 then like kind of Newmanon has been like our. 98 00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:33.800 Kind of gold standard, yeah, our high production value of 99 00:04:33.839 --> 00:04:35.360 where we've been in recent times. 100 00:04:35.439 --> 00:04:37.079 Yeah yeah, because like every time we go to work, 101 00:04:37.120 --> 00:04:39.040 it's like, oh, is it gonna end up being as 102 00:04:39.040 --> 00:04:42.800 good as Numanon? But this time after we you know, 103 00:04:42.839 --> 00:04:45.120 when we were doing the listening on Apple, I think 104 00:04:45.279 --> 00:04:47.879 I think even that night maybe we also listened to 105 00:04:47.959 --> 00:04:50.439 Newmanon after we you know, heard okay a couple of 106 00:04:50.439 --> 00:04:52.120 times and we're like, oh. 107 00:04:52.000 --> 00:04:53.519 Shoot, I think we top Numana. 108 00:04:54.000 --> 00:04:56.879 I know, like you know, not even talking about like 109 00:04:56.959 --> 00:04:59.920 songwriting or whatever, but just like the way the over 110 00:05:00.079 --> 00:05:02.759 all production and the masters and stuff sound. 111 00:05:02.800 --> 00:05:04.160 About the whole thing holistically. 112 00:05:04.240 --> 00:05:09.439 Yeah yeah, Like okay, it's just like it is lush. 113 00:05:09.519 --> 00:05:12.079 Yeah great. I really went for the lush af on 114 00:05:12.160 --> 00:05:16.199 this one noon like restrained lushness, but this one we 115 00:05:16.279 --> 00:05:20.199 just wanted like lush and sexy, you know, total highest 116 00:05:20.240 --> 00:05:21.480 degrees of both of those out. 117 00:05:21.759 --> 00:05:24.639 Yeah, so funny. I all I really remember is that 118 00:05:24.680 --> 00:05:27.879 we started once again, we started with recording the chorus. 119 00:05:27.959 --> 00:05:28.959 Yeah, we got that. 120 00:05:29.000 --> 00:05:31.240 To where we wanted it and like trying to figure out, 121 00:05:31.279 --> 00:05:33.480 you know, which is the main which is the main 122 00:05:34.000 --> 00:05:36.199 top line vocal, and which is the backing vocal. 123 00:05:36.399 --> 00:05:36.680 Yeah. 124 00:05:36.759 --> 00:05:39.240 Once we had that established, it seemed like it was 125 00:05:39.279 --> 00:05:40.879 easier to go forward from there. 126 00:05:41.120 --> 00:05:41.519 Yeah. 127 00:05:41.720 --> 00:05:44.920 Yeah. Normally we would track like the main vocal, like 128 00:05:45.160 --> 00:05:49.000 which is generally like my natural tone. Normally we would 129 00:05:49.040 --> 00:05:51.319 track that all the way through and then like on 130 00:05:51.360 --> 00:05:54.720 another day, come back into the high harmonies. This time 131 00:05:54.759 --> 00:05:56.360 we did both and the same. It was like a 132 00:05:56.399 --> 00:05:59.639 writing and recording session like I had, I had the 133 00:05:59.680 --> 00:06:02.680 poet tree, but I really didn't know what my melodies 134 00:06:02.680 --> 00:06:04.800 were going to be, and we like we really cramped 135 00:06:04.800 --> 00:06:05.680 and did the whole thing. 136 00:06:05.839 --> 00:06:09.439 That's kind of weird. Like a lot of our we 137 00:06:09.439 --> 00:06:12.720 were writing songs, the production and songwriting are kind of 138 00:06:12.720 --> 00:06:16.399 often one and the same, meaning that very rarely for us. 139 00:06:16.439 --> 00:06:19.399 As a song like rehearsed, you know, like we practiced it. 140 00:06:19.480 --> 00:06:20.800 We know, it's just a matter of going to the 141 00:06:20.800 --> 00:06:23.600 studio and just doing it, you know, for the in 142 00:06:23.600 --> 00:06:25.240 front of the microphone and getting all down. 143 00:06:25.920 --> 00:06:28.000 I don't think that's exactly true. It depends. Like when 144 00:06:28.000 --> 00:06:30.240 we're doing albums, I end up having a lot of time, 145 00:06:30.839 --> 00:06:33.680 like to learn a song. These you're kind of writing 146 00:06:33.720 --> 00:06:34.759 all these singles, you're. 147 00:06:34.680 --> 00:06:36.639 Kind of coming up with the melodies and how you're 148 00:06:36.639 --> 00:06:39.360 going to deliver it as we're just kind of put 149 00:06:39.360 --> 00:06:41.360 you in front of and hearing it for the first time. 150 00:06:42.240 --> 00:06:44.720 For sure. Yeah, I did end up coming with something 151 00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:48.279 a little bit, a little bit on the fly that 152 00:06:48.399 --> 00:06:51.399 there's like a little spoken part, oh yeah, yeah, and 153 00:06:51.480 --> 00:06:52.519 the bridge. 154 00:06:52.399 --> 00:06:56.360 Yeah yeah, not melodic word wrap. 155 00:06:56.839 --> 00:06:59.600 It's not exactly a rabbit. 156 00:07:00.199 --> 00:07:03.959 Listen for if you think Angie's voice is particularly like 157 00:07:04.079 --> 00:07:07.160 warm and sexy on this one, which I think it is. 158 00:07:07.279 --> 00:07:09.800 Part of it was your performance or delivery and parts. 159 00:07:09.879 --> 00:07:13.680 We switched back to an older PREMP pre amp microphone 160 00:07:13.720 --> 00:07:18.639 PREMP that we haven't used in a long time. But yeah, 161 00:07:18.680 --> 00:07:22.160 I've made some adjustments on how I mic you up 162 00:07:22.879 --> 00:07:24.959 so that we can go back to using this pramp. 163 00:07:24.959 --> 00:07:27.439 Before it was just it was too warm and before, 164 00:07:27.480 --> 00:07:29.319 but now I think we got it so we can 165 00:07:29.439 --> 00:07:31.040 use it. And I think we're gonna keep using this 166 00:07:31.040 --> 00:07:33.879 one from now because your voice sounds like hot on 167 00:07:34.240 --> 00:07:36.920 this song, so we're gonna roll with the vitas for 168 00:07:36.920 --> 00:07:37.399 a while. 169 00:07:37.959 --> 00:07:39.839 Yeah, that was one of the things that we're working on, 170 00:07:39.920 --> 00:07:41.839 like what, you know, what what should the vulbal sound 171 00:07:41.920 --> 00:07:43.879 like on this? And it's like, you know, I just 172 00:07:44.160 --> 00:07:47.199 I want it to be like very intimate, very sexy. 173 00:07:47.439 --> 00:07:50.319 Didn't you also change something about the microphone the. 174 00:07:51.759 --> 00:07:55.439 Directional Yeah, that's a basic day, okay for a nerd 175 00:07:55.480 --> 00:07:58.160 tip here. Yeah, when we were first using the vitas 176 00:07:58.480 --> 00:08:01.000 Fi preamp with her mic, we're using the mic. It's 177 00:08:01.040 --> 00:08:03.600 a multi pattern mic. We're using it in cardioid, probably 178 00:08:03.639 --> 00:08:08.639 the most common mic pattern for microphones anyway, Carter. It 179 00:08:08.720 --> 00:08:10.560 has a a when you're up close to it, there's 180 00:08:10.560 --> 00:08:13.639 a what's called proximity effect, which means a base is 181 00:08:13.680 --> 00:08:16.160 you know, the lower frequencies are louder than the higher ones. 182 00:08:16.160 --> 00:08:18.680 It's kind of boomy. If you flip it into omni, 183 00:08:19.079 --> 00:08:21.720 most of that proximity effect is gone. Still there, but 184 00:08:21.879 --> 00:08:25.639 just like maybe ten. So that's the secret to recording 185 00:08:25.680 --> 00:08:28.199 you close up with that mic is put it on 186 00:08:28.319 --> 00:08:31.079 an omni. But for omni you need to excuse me. 187 00:08:31.079 --> 00:08:33.200 Your room can't sound like crap because it picks up 188 00:08:33.240 --> 00:08:35.799 all directions. So it's got to have a quiet room. 189 00:08:35.919 --> 00:08:38.320 And that was the secret there. 190 00:08:38.360 --> 00:08:41.120 Yeah, Yeah, gotta pick the right hour to record. 191 00:08:40.879 --> 00:08:44.440 At That's that's always true here in this home. Stood, 192 00:08:44.480 --> 00:08:47.399 it's a crazy nonsense going on. I'm surprised not going 193 00:08:47.399 --> 00:08:48.639 on right now as we recording. 194 00:08:48.639 --> 00:08:51.080 I know we really liked that. Yeah, but you know, 195 00:08:51.120 --> 00:08:53.639 we couldn't have done this yesterday on fourth of July 196 00:08:54.000 --> 00:08:57.120 sort of a way too many explosions. Yeah, but today, 197 00:08:58.039 --> 00:09:00.720 so yeah, that was that was. That was a fun 198 00:09:00.759 --> 00:09:03.240 song to track and to mix, and it came together 199 00:09:03.399 --> 00:09:06.039 like quickly and in a way that we really enjoyed. 200 00:09:06.200 --> 00:09:09.120 And so yeah. So, like I said, I didn't have 201 00:09:09.159 --> 00:09:10.759 as much time to roll out, but I tried to 202 00:09:10.759 --> 00:09:12.559 do all the same things I normally do, Like I 203 00:09:12.639 --> 00:09:15.559 made like a little teaser clip and got that on 204 00:09:15.639 --> 00:09:16.679 Instagram and YouTube. 205 00:09:17.200 --> 00:09:17.519 Excited. 206 00:09:17.639 --> 00:09:20.000 Yeah, people got really excited. So I was gonna share 207 00:09:20.039 --> 00:09:21.840 a couple of the comments for Funzi. 208 00:09:21.600 --> 00:09:23.480 From the teaser clip. Yeah, I do it. 209 00:09:24.600 --> 00:09:26.840 I don't know if you remember last time Crystal had 210 00:09:26.919 --> 00:09:34.440 said st Crystal comment again also another fire track.

Yeah, 222 00:10:03.679 --> 00:10:05.879 I did kind of think of when I was doing 223 00:10:05.919 --> 00:10:11.799 that spoken let's see. Oh and this guy be really excited. 224 00:10:11.879 --> 00:10:15.360 Big Sonic Heavin Radio said we're so looking forward to it, 225 00:10:15.840 --> 00:10:18.600 and that was on the YouTube teaser and then over 226 00:10:18.679 --> 00:10:21.720 on the Instagram one, I saw this sounds absolutely amazing 227 00:10:21.799 --> 00:10:24.919 Big Sonic Jim, Oh cool.

Awesome, it might be the 235 00:10:43.480 --> 00:10:48.240 best Love Spirals song I've ever heard. Let's say the 236 00:10:48.240 --> 00:10:48.639 whole thing. 237 00:10:48.720 --> 00:10:51.320 Okay, Yeah, so I told him this is the best 238 00:10:51.360 --> 00:10:52.360 comment I've ever read. 239 00:10:52.440 --> 00:10:54.240 Yeah, awesome, indeed. 240 00:10:56.279 --> 00:10:59.360 Okay's over over on Instagram, and I guess they didn't 241 00:10:59.360 --> 00:11:01.279 get the full track. It was like, you know, I 242 00:11:01.840 --> 00:11:03.279 give them the links so they can go check it 243 00:11:03.279 --> 00:11:04.600 out band camp or whatever. 244 00:11:05.120 --> 00:11:05.440 Yeah. 245 00:11:05.759 --> 00:11:07.639 So this is the first time I've ever seen people 246 00:11:07.759 --> 00:11:08.840 responding with gifts. 247 00:11:09.120 --> 00:11:09.600 Okay. 248 00:11:09.799 --> 00:11:12.320 Yeah, so the very first comment was a gift of 249 00:11:12.360 --> 00:11:15.360 a girl driving in the rain, and I was like, oh, 250 00:11:15.519 --> 00:11:18.960 it's so accurate. Another person posted a guy with headphones on. 251 00:11:19.360 --> 00:11:22.240 He appeared to be having what I would call him eargalzo. Oh. 252 00:11:22.919 --> 00:11:24.279 Yes, she was awesome. 253 00:11:24.440 --> 00:11:30.440 Sexy Missus Belgrave said love the vibe.

Chris Patterson said 256 00:11:42.039 --> 00:11:44.320 love it and have it on a couple of my playlists. 257 00:11:44.480 --> 00:11:48.480 That was awesome, I know. And Medea's Systema said so 258 00:11:48.519 --> 00:11:50.679 deep and wonderful. I love it, And that was over 259 00:11:50.799 --> 00:11:55.600 on the the LSD official YouTube account, and someone else 260 00:11:55.639 --> 00:11:58.799 over there said this is nostalgic in super curious what 261 00:11:58.799 --> 00:12:02.200 it was nostalgic of their name was like Luma's abaton. 262 00:12:02.519 --> 00:12:06.360 Yeah, I mean stylistically, it doesn't like anything that we 263 00:12:06.919 --> 00:12:09.600 like from my nineties era or anything like that. But 264 00:12:10.480 --> 00:12:13.519 it's still comes from the same emotional place more or less. 265 00:12:13.600 --> 00:12:16.000 You know, that hasn't changed too much. I mean, like 266 00:12:16.360 --> 00:12:20.320 I've learned, you know, new production, technically, got new gear, 267 00:12:20.399 --> 00:12:23.759 all that stuff, but the same heart is still here. 268 00:12:23.799 --> 00:12:24.039 You know. 269 00:12:24.559 --> 00:12:27.919 I think the fact that you've got like that super 270 00:12:28.120 --> 00:12:33.399 dream pop guitar and like that shoegazory emo, yeah, mixed 271 00:12:33.440 --> 00:12:36.360 with a modern electronica framework, that's. 272 00:12:36.159 --> 00:12:37.960 A great way to describe it. Yeah, that is. 273 00:12:38.240 --> 00:12:40.519 I mean, if that's not a direct line from Flux, 274 00:12:40.559 --> 00:12:41.440 I don't know what is. 275 00:12:41.639 --> 00:12:44.799 You know, it has brand Brandon from Restless Mosaics, and 276 00:12:45.480 --> 00:12:48.799 you try to describe her sound dream pop plus yeah plus, 277 00:12:48.840 --> 00:12:51.759 and that plus can be whatever we're into that at that. Yeah, 278 00:12:52.120 --> 00:12:54.679 but usually yeah, like trapper or something. Who knows. 279 00:12:55.559 --> 00:12:57.360 Yeah, I don't know exactly how it would describe the 280 00:12:57.440 --> 00:13:01.200 electronica beats and stuff on this one. You know, it's 281 00:13:01.639 --> 00:13:04.799 I think it is kind of like the kind of 282 00:13:04.879 --> 00:13:06.840 chill up but also kind of like the more chill 283 00:13:08.440 --> 00:13:09.960 K pop electronica that we like. 284 00:13:10.039 --> 00:13:11.919 Yeah, it's kind of a blend of that chill out 285 00:13:12.320 --> 00:13:15.320 and chill K pop electronica. Yeah, is that the last comment, 286 00:13:15.519 --> 00:13:16.200 I have one more. 287 00:13:16.240 --> 00:13:18.480 Someone said just as good as Boss Mode. You killed it. 288 00:13:18.600 --> 00:13:21.639 Awesome. This is cool, guys, So thanks for sharing your comments. 289 00:13:21.639 --> 00:13:24.039 Really it's yeah, I don't know if I said it before, 290 00:13:24.080 --> 00:13:27.120 but yeah, making music here is a very just, you know, 291 00:13:27.240 --> 00:13:29.559 just you and me experience. There's not other people here. 292 00:13:29.600 --> 00:13:32.960 There's no like other musicians. There's no like solitary audio 293 00:13:33.039 --> 00:13:38.559 engineers or producers besides me and her. Yeah. So it's 294 00:13:38.679 --> 00:13:40.840 it's so weird, like we've spent like, we spend so 295 00:13:40.919 --> 00:13:44.279 much time, you know, hours, months, sometimes years on a 296 00:13:44.360 --> 00:13:48.000 song and it's just it's just us and finally it 297 00:13:48.000 --> 00:13:50.720 gets out to the world and other people are experiencing it. 298 00:13:50.720 --> 00:13:53.759 It's just it's just so like awesome and just I 299 00:13:53.799 --> 00:13:56.279 don't know what the right word is, almost exhilarating to 300 00:13:56.320 --> 00:13:58.440 hear that it's doing cool things to other people. 301 00:13:58.559 --> 00:14:01.519 Yeah, yeah, absolutely. 302 00:14:01.000 --> 00:14:02.840 So that's part of the reward there. You know, we're 303 00:14:02.879 --> 00:14:04.799 not like a top forty band. You know, we're not 304 00:14:04.799 --> 00:14:08.120 writing songs for Beyonce or Taylor Swift or something like that. 305 00:14:08.159 --> 00:14:09.519 You know, we're not getting rich off this is what 306 00:14:09.559 --> 00:14:11.960 I'm saying. So part of the riches for us, like 307 00:14:12.039 --> 00:14:15.200 internal rewards rather than external things, you know, So getting 308 00:14:15.200 --> 00:14:19.960 that eternal now, what's that called, like adrenaline hit? Like 309 00:14:20.360 --> 00:14:22.639 this is best? 310 00:14:24.679 --> 00:14:27.519 Yeah, in fact, like just to show how different we 311 00:14:27.559 --> 00:14:31.960 are from someone like you know, what'd you say, Beyonce? Yeah, 312 00:14:32.320 --> 00:14:36.519 we're we're knocking on six thousand streams of okay, rights. 313 00:14:36.120 --> 00:14:38.120 That's great. I usually have the rule of thumb, and 314 00:14:38.240 --> 00:14:41.000 you know, we usually do about ten k in a 315 00:14:41.200 --> 00:14:44.240 four week period or something like that. So I just 316 00:14:44.320 --> 00:14:47.440 turned on silence all notifications in case you heard a beat. Great. 317 00:14:48.639 --> 00:14:50.360 Oh yeah, I was gonna say. I think I don't 318 00:14:50.360 --> 00:14:52.960 know for sure, but I think it's possible that only 319 00:14:53.000 --> 00:14:55.480 having that you know, that quick run time to it 320 00:14:55.600 --> 00:14:58.919 coming out on Spotify, that may have contributed to like 321 00:14:58.960 --> 00:15:01.159 the kind of a slower take. Like I noticed that it 322 00:15:03.399 --> 00:15:07.039 was like sixty five percent of the streams in that 323 00:15:07.120 --> 00:15:11.039 first week we're coming directly from like our what do 324 00:15:11.080 --> 00:15:14.120 they call it? Come from our profile and and like 325 00:15:14.159 --> 00:15:17.840 there was barely any coming from the algorithm playlist. But 326 00:15:18.240 --> 00:15:20.879 as of this weekend now it's up to twenty seven 327 00:15:20.879 --> 00:15:23.799 percents coming from the algorithm. So finally, the algorithm's kind 328 00:15:23.840 --> 00:15:24.399 of starting to. 329 00:15:24.519 --> 00:15:27.480 So as being like people like to tweak and be scientific. Yeah, 330 00:15:27.519 --> 00:15:30.840 maybe next times we won't do the quick worldout. We'll 331 00:15:30.879 --> 00:15:33.080 let it have the full two weeks. Yeah, helps, it's 332 00:15:33.120 --> 00:15:34.639 algorithm out somehow, we don't know. 333 00:15:35.240 --> 00:15:37.559 It wouldn't kill us to have it come out in July. 334 00:15:38.159 --> 00:15:39.879 Then it would have come out this week where even 335 00:15:39.919 --> 00:15:41.600 more people are on vacation. 336 00:15:41.840 --> 00:15:46.279 To get out. Yeah, that came out yes of last Friday. Useless. Yeah, 337 00:15:46.879 --> 00:15:48.559 so I had to come out when it did basically 338 00:15:48.960 --> 00:15:49.440 kind of did. 339 00:15:49.519 --> 00:15:51.720 Yeah, that's why we just because we had, you know, 340 00:15:52.120 --> 00:15:54.639 and like we could have cout remixing the song over 341 00:15:54.679 --> 00:15:56.440 and over, but I don't think we needed to. When 342 00:15:56.440 --> 00:15:58.000 we did everything we wanted to do. 343 00:15:58.080 --> 00:15:59.440 Yeah, I don't know if it could have been that 344 00:15:59.639 --> 00:16:01.759 much better. I mean, it's the thing. Once you hit it, 345 00:16:02.159 --> 00:16:05.799 Once your mix hits a certain level of greatness, you 346 00:16:05.840 --> 00:16:08.960 can I mean that's I'm not saying it smoothness, you 347 00:16:08.960 --> 00:16:10.639 know what I'm saying. You can keep working. You could 348 00:16:10.679 --> 00:16:13.919 spend another like say another week, like a forty hour 349 00:16:14.000 --> 00:16:16.559 week of mixing it, and you might get maybe one 350 00:16:16.600 --> 00:16:19.720 to two percent of improvement. It's like diminishing returns at 351 00:16:19.720 --> 00:16:22.399 that point. And then sometimes you can start overthinking it 352 00:16:22.399 --> 00:16:25.279 and maybe sometimes make it even worse, you know, I'm sure. 353 00:16:25.600 --> 00:16:28.600 So we try to get that spot where we quit 354 00:16:28.679 --> 00:16:30.919 when we know it's a really good mix and all 355 00:16:30.960 --> 00:16:33.120 the problems. Like we have a little list of things 356 00:16:33.120 --> 00:16:36.000 we want to hit up, you know, and we hit 357 00:16:36.039 --> 00:16:38.919 those all and and once we were satisfied, then we 358 00:16:39.159 --> 00:16:41.480 all right, that's when you're done. 359 00:16:41.279 --> 00:16:44.879 Sort of totally. Yeah. Yeah, so you know, people are 360 00:16:44.879 --> 00:16:47.320 starting to listen to it. It's getting into like silver 361 00:16:47.480 --> 00:16:50.759 seven hundred playlists blah blah blah. I saw when we 362 00:16:50.799 --> 00:16:53.240 get like nine streams in South Korea this time. 363 00:16:53.320 --> 00:16:56.360 So far we're getting there that Boss was up to 364 00:16:56.360 --> 00:16:59.559 like fifty or so. Yeah, that's where our big goals 365 00:17:00.200 --> 00:17:03.879 in South Korea to really discover our music. So if 366 00:17:03.919 --> 00:17:06.480 you happen to be one of the rare South Korean listeners, no, 367 00:17:06.599 --> 00:17:08.519 I want to know who the word Let them know. 368 00:17:08.559 --> 00:17:14.079 We're into bands like like ex Monster x XO, stuff 369 00:17:14.119 --> 00:17:14.799 like that, you know. 370 00:17:14.920 --> 00:17:20.240 Definitely Jimmy Brown speaking of Cold Young Young we're gonna 371 00:17:20.240 --> 00:17:21.119 go see tomorrow. 372 00:17:21.200 --> 00:17:24.440 Yeah, we will already seen him by this time comes out. 373 00:17:24.519 --> 00:17:31.039 Yeah, do you want to talk about the cover photo? 374 00:17:31.000 --> 00:17:35.319 All's just another of my series, like we talked about 375 00:17:35.319 --> 00:17:37.599 the last few episodes, you know of us when we 376 00:17:37.599 --> 00:17:41.000 go out to some interesting places, they're already set up 377 00:17:41.119 --> 00:17:43.720 all nice, and I do my weird color smearing. 378 00:17:44.960 --> 00:17:47.440 Yeah, this time, that seemed to be the only photo 379 00:17:47.480 --> 00:17:50.359 in the set that looked precisely like them. I was like, 380 00:17:50.480 --> 00:17:52.559 no before and after shot. 381 00:17:52.680 --> 00:17:54.400 I had high helpes when I took that photo. That's 382 00:17:54.400 --> 00:17:55.480 why I put it in a little We have a 383 00:17:55.480 --> 00:17:57.799 folder that we share of the ones I'm really stoked on, 384 00:17:57.880 --> 00:17:59.480 and I thought that could one day end up being 385 00:17:59.519 --> 00:17:59.880 an album. 386 00:18:00.319 --> 00:18:01.880 So I love it. I think I tried to make 387 00:18:01.920 --> 00:18:04.119 it a cover for I think I tried that one 388 00:18:04.119 --> 00:18:06.240 on Boss Mode and then I'm glad we went with 389 00:18:06.279 --> 00:18:09.400 the one that we did. Yeah, So anyways, Yeah, so 390 00:18:09.440 --> 00:18:11.720 I really loved this photo and I was I just 391 00:18:11.799 --> 00:18:14.079 couldn't wait to use it for a cover. I like 392 00:18:14.160 --> 00:18:16.240 the song a lot, and it would have been cool 393 00:18:16.279 --> 00:18:18.359 to do like a full on music video like we 394 00:18:18.359 --> 00:18:20.519 did for Newmanah. But that's just like it took so 395 00:18:20.599 --> 00:18:21.359 much more time. 396 00:18:21.680 --> 00:18:23.960 Post Rosso was kind of a longer song, knocking on 397 00:18:24.000 --> 00:18:26.640 almost four minutes. That's long because it was like two 398 00:18:26.680 --> 00:18:28.400 fifty eight or something like that. 399 00:18:28.720 --> 00:18:29.720 Yeah, that would have been easier. 400 00:18:30.039 --> 00:18:30.440 Yeah. 401 00:18:30.519 --> 00:18:33.279
