carly rae jepsen’s love life is like a romcom where the main character gets super close to getting a date from a character but something always goes wrong and they end up alone in a loop of failed romance
Bonus tracks are still a confusing listening experience because when you're listening to the album for the first time you aren't always aware of when you've reached the bonus tracks, so sometimes you segue into the bonus track section without realising which does muddle up the listening experience.

Good video Melon, but did you really have to create a very well thought out and civil video reacting to music opinions online with no racist and/or misogynistic content, despite what the comments may lead you to believe?
One of these days, I really hope Anthony reviews/mentions/comments on my favorite artist, Zack Hemsey. Hopefully Empty Room, Ronin, or Nomad as the album choice, as I think they best represent his art style.
wow this video was good but can't believe he said this meme was stale. footnote: thank you for acknowledging how bad that meme is, hopefully we won't see so much of it anymore
If the mix sounds bad on M50x's, then it's a bad mix. Everything sounds incredible on a great system, the skill is in making it sound good on lower end systems, otherwise you're putting a price point on the enjoyment of your music. Not saying I agree or disagree with Empath having a bad mix, but saying "your speakers aren't good enough" kind of proves the point.
For some reason I went a rabbit hole counting the amount of times he said Hi in the beginning He finish saying all 9 Hi's on 0 :19 Took the 9's out, 0 :10 the length of the video is 14 :01 mins 14 :01 - 10 = 4:01 I did all of that for... Don't ask
I absolutely LOVE Hot Chip; glad to hear you mention them. Also; related to the Trinidad James bit, let us not forget whole songs drums are lifted from a Too $hort beat [down to the hi-hat rolls, that sound handplayed; though I don't know whether $hortDawg's version is a sample itself..]...

Bonus Tracks are usually not labelled as such on spotify or other streaming services, whenever I listen to an album I find I often need to wikipedia the album first to make sure I end the album where it's supposed to end. And that's just annoying.
Danny Browns XXX man, the song that's supposed to end the album off isn't as powerful when theres more tracks after it. That doesnt mean that the bonus tracks are bad, I still appreciate them.
When it comes to BONUS TRACKS, they need to do like the were done on CDs back in the day: there needs to be enough silence between the end of the album and the beginning of the bonus tracks so they you can truly FEEL the proper end to the album. It shouldn’t be up to the listener to take extra steps to make that so...especially if someone puts an album on for the first time then steps away from their device.
ChrisJ Fox big agree. At the very least, the artist should make sure that the next song flows, or that the bonus songs actually flow together well (e.g. Danny Brown's XXX or the international release of GKMC)
@@kamronisaiahjohnson2718 what people were they asking cause i think they have some "sjw" from a boomer political cartoon visualized in their heads and not people who actually exist.
I was surprised when he said "hey, even women show up to those things" (in regards to his live shows). Melon, is you femme audience really that small? :(
@@isabilia I read it as let's argue. Oops lol. (Seriously though, she played Cinderella in the Broadway revival of R&H's Cinderella as a kind of publicity stunt, but she actually killed it. I saw her perform and it completely changed my 13-14 year old mind about her)
i'm pretty sure aphex's track names (aside from the ones that are just english titles) range from "welsh" to "the working file name" to "the hardware/software routines present" and aren't some kinda Hacker Aesthetic thing lol
I really love Devon Townsend but I absolutely agree with you on the mixing. I really can't listen to his stuff as much as I would like to because honestly the "wall of sound" thing going on is so overblown that a lot of parts become almost indistinguishable and the whole package generally lacks in dynamics. It really sucks because I would genuinely love to enjoy Empath more than I do
Bonus tracks are really annoying, when the album ends (where it should end) I want silence to think about the album and how I feel about it (and why I feel that way) but having to stop the music manually (in streaming services like spotify) makes me feel like 'disconnected' I don't know how to explain that really But anyway, that's just me
I had never thought I'd find myself watching an Anthony Fantano video mainly because I saw anime in the thumbnail. And, I am severely disappointed in myself.
the reasons why Aphex Twin titles his sonsgs like that is actually beacuse he doesnt want other people to search him up and he wants to maintain that underground status. He is also a massive troll so it wouldnt surpise me if he did it with intent to piss off listeneres and people who try to search up hi music.
Nice comment section Anthony, but they really shouldn't have made the same joke about you doing something controversial in the video that you didn't actually do 5 million times.
the part where the guy calls you out for shit listening equipment made me feel better because I use the akg k240s. You just holding them makes me confident I don't need an upgrade anytime soon
Good video anthony, but you didn't have to go on a tangent about how the style of lying about what you said in the video for comedic effect is terrible, not cool man
