Daniel is underrated as a musician. The number of musical styles he's come out with under his various releases are incredibly diverse. A true musician.
I rave about this so much. I seriously don't understand how he doesn't get more credit. There are plenty of people who clearly recognize his talent and have over the years. Maybe his shy nature partially plays a role in that...
I knew things would never be the same as soon as I heard this collection of songs. It was the signature of him forever evolving as an artist. I actually like this mini record (ep) a lot. It’s concretely progressive and There’s still that tinge of youthful spirit that made us all love Daniel in the first place. The song 3 is gorgeous
I was going through my cd collection(yes I still own physical cds) and I came across this cd. I had totally forgotten I owned this but once I put it on,I remembered every single word to the songs. I remember having my mom order it for me in 2000 and waiting for like a month to receive the cd. Ah memories! So glad I still have this cd. This really is incredible music💥
Been a Silverchair/Daniel Johns obsessed fan since the 90's.....how have I NEVER heard this before?! I knew of the Dissociatives and have heard every other thing he's ever done and missed this entirely...and it's incredible. It so obviously influenced Diorama, the best album ever.
Had to special order this when it first came out. John's and Mac should have done more to promote it. Lots of people missed out because it was released in such a low-key manner. Thanks for uploading.
This is the only example I've ever been able to find of any sort of bridge between Neon Ballroom era Dan and Diorama era Dan. Seems like he just became a brand new guy during 2000. His face changed, his voice changed, his style changed, it's crazy.
I really think he went through a spiritual awakening tbh. He consciously decided to make happy music, which meant writing it from a happy place - when you realise you have the power to change your energy like that after succumbing to it for years, a lot changes. I mean he said he didn't write Across the Night, he said he was just there... I think he opened his consciousnesswith ditching antidepressants and saw the light. And to caprire that with Diorama... Its inspiring beyond measure.
Assistindo/ouvindo em 2022. Daniel Johns é de fato uma lenda, eu não conhecia essa obra dele. Que por sinal é muito boa, a gente pode detectar grande parte da sua performance no Diorama neste trabalho, uma referência de como ele estava nessa época já evoluindo na música e podemos encontrar essa evolução fantástica no Diorama. Também tem uma conexão com o Neon Ballroom esse EP. Enfim, o que será que o Daniel irá nos trazer de novo depois que ele sair da clínica de reabilitação? Será que depois de lançar o curta "What If The Future Never Happened?", ele vai voltar com o Silverchair? Enfim, neste ano de 2022 fazem exatos 20 anos que foi lançada a obra prima da música, DIORAMA! VIDA LONGA DANIEL, VIDA LONGA SILVERCHAIR!
Daniel e fantastico, sempre se reiventa, sua voz e cristalina e doce ao mesmo tempo, tanto num som calmo quanto em algo mais agressivo. Versatil, criativo, talentoso, Isso é artista de verdade
@@lucassotocorno2730 This album for me, made me feel like I was listening to an undiscovered artist. Quality craftsmanship done from home. I fuckin luv it. I originally had to "Rip" this album from Kazaa. if you know what I'm talking about lol
I just love this little gem of an EP. Also, it struck me how much the third track "3" sounds like a lot of the Young Modern demos. If you haven't heard those demos....do yourself a huge favor and look them up!! There's some amazing stuff there...several songs that never made the album, as well as (imo) better versions of album tracks. The song Arrest These Orchids is gorgeous....and the Reflections of a Sound demo is beyond beautiful. Way more dreamy and pretty sounding than the more direct album version. Anyway....I just found it interesting how the third track of this EP has very similar vibes to much of the YM demos. I've been a massive Silverchair fan since around 2001, when I first discovered them at 17. As an American, it's always really bothered me how Daniel's objective musical genius was just flat out ignored in the states. Like NO ONE knows about it....or if they do, they know "that song about bathroom sinks or something?" I'm so happy to see a critical reassessment of Daniel's output here lately....with the release of his own Spotify podcast Who Is Daniel Johns? As well as the excellent podcast "Too Much of Not Enough." If you haven't heard those two podcasts and are a Silverchair/Daniel fan.....they're a must listen. The TMONE podcast in particular is a DEEEEP dive into Silverchair's music....as well as the Dissociatives. Hell, there's an entire hour long episode about this very EP. It goes deep into the musicality of it all as well....lots of juicy music theory fun. :)
This is one of the best comments on any Silverchair/Daniel video! It also frustrates and baffles me how the US didn't take to them after they changed their style, they got BETTER! and I LOVE the Young Modern demos and agree those songs are more beautiful than on the album! The podcasts are amazing, too!
@@gaiagoddess5360 lol thx! It's too bad they were written off as "derivitive" so early in their career. I mean, they were young...and wouldn't go on to make their best work until the rest of the world was no longer interested. But I'll always be an unashamed huge Silverchair/Dissos/Daniel fan. Feel lucky that I was able to see Silverchair live around 2008(?) or so....I think in Alabama? Just before it all ended. They played mostly heavier stuff too, which I didn't expect. Closed with The Lever. Amazing show....
these were all songs that Daniel had written in the same batch of material that became "neon ballroom". The songs didn't get used for that record so he made this EP with Paul. And then the next step in the evolution was the dissociatives. Although both he and Paul consider these separate projects this definitely informed what they did with that band
Provavelmente o título se refere aos fãs chatos q não aceitam q ele não toque mais aquele estilo musical q ele tocava no Silverchair.... tá ai um presente pra vcs fãs chatos!
I'm loving all the recent comments here! Only proves Daniel is a legend, still impressing people with 20-year old obscure music!

He causes that to himself... He is very self-deprecating and wastes his talent in an apparent need to shock the audience.
@@BrunoBuzolloso true and so sad.

It’s concretely progressive and There’s still that tinge of youthful spirit that made us all love Daniel in the first place. The song 3 is gorgeous
I also knew things would never be the same… still my favourite EP of all time
Wow! Memories flowing when I hear this. It's a perfect soundtrack for a drive in the snow.
This is incredible! Dan and Paul make the most amazing and dynamic musical team...
I remember ordering this thru the mail and getting it shipped from Australia! And now I can listen to this whenever I want. Crazy times.
When I'm gonna be 50, I want to have it on vinyl! Great music. Always loved the staff that did Paul & Daniel together.
Listening to this EP for the first time. What a masterpiece!
2022 e esse disco continua maravilhoso

Don’t ever get rid of it lol
2021 and still great

this was only released to be bought through the Llama Appreciation Society (the official silverchair fanclub)
these were songs that Daniel had for "neon ballroom" which didn't end up on that record. He re-purposed them for this EP. It turned out wonderful
Love this so much. Lost the CD wayyy long ago and remembered it recently as one of my fave things ever. so glad to be listening to it here!!!
I wish this was on Spotify in the US.
Not available in the UK either :(
Staging A Traffic Jam 👌
Ahh No matter what Daniel Johns will always be my first... Real music I ever absorbed myself with. This album particularly.
I had this EP so many years ago. I lost track of it and it's amazing to hear it again. I always thought it was really good.
still my absolute favourite EP of all time ❤️🔥

Heh.. very good explaining. It's true. The bridge between neon balroom and diorama and the dissociatives.

1 minute of silence for those who don't have discovered this gem yet (my case til june this year)
This and The Dissociatives!
@@lucassotocorno2730 There is more Intimate Magic in this record.
I luv both though
@@WinItReigns I totally agree! And also there're songs like Forever and a Day, in the Disso album, that totally melt me : )
@@lucassotocorno2730 This album for me, made me feel like I was listening to an undiscovered artist. Quality craftsmanship done from home.
I fuckin luv it.
I originally had to "Rip" this album from Kazaa. if you know what I'm talking about
lol
@@WinItReigns oh, I know. I used to download movies, series and song by IRC or mIRC
Oh hell yes! Been hoping someone would upload the whole album sometime. Been so long since I've heard this glorious EP.
I just love this little gem of an EP.

So therapeutic 🔊💆♀️💆♂️👍👁
Es un muy buen álbum! lml
2022 y aún me sigue sorprendiendo este gran álbum!!
Wow. This takes me back a while 💕
Bom demais relembrar essa obra. ✌🏻
And I lost this for years... thank you
Of course this is fantastic. I was just checking it out bc I was bored. Daniel just doesn’t disappoint
Still Loving this!
This album is so creative!
Un très bon album... La voix de Daniel est cristalline.
Beautiful music.
It was definitely a good decision to get this in physical media.
where did you get it? :o
Never found this in my country (Brazil), neither The Dissociatives album. Hope to get these both gems to my collection someday :)
@@johnborowski4235 I had to special order both of them from Australia when they were released.
thank you so much I had been searching for this for years!
You should download it, because i have received 2 copyright strikes, they are going to close my account :(
@@Chask0n can you send a download link please?
@@han_tyumi5139 I can if you are still looking.
@@B1akTang1dH4rt I still want.
@@B1akTang1dH4rtplease tell me you still have please
Wow!!!
Totally forgot this existed. One of the first things I ever put on an MP3 player
Some of the songs sound like a mixture of neon ballroom, diorama and the dissociatives.

Think I still have this on CD☺️
I loved rock music back then. Cool days...
I didn't know about this release!! It's badass!!
after diorama this is 2nd the best of daniels..
Yes! I have always loved Diorama. I recently got back into this. Rain was on my page on myspace, I forgot all about it!
quit smoking...it is not even close...neon is million times better...
“3” is fantastic!
Thank you thank you thank you I was looking for this a long time ago :) !!!
too good too awesome

I love this song
i can't find anywhere to download this album anymore! OP pls.
p.s. thanks for uploading!
thanks for uploading! I didn't know about these songs!!!!
2021
Why isn't this on Spotify? 😶
It was before so I don’t understand why they removed it
@@jonbarth probably region locking from the label
Tava procurando isso, pois é muito difícil de achar!
Thank for upload this! Do you know when it was released? Sounds like pre-dissociatives
+Maximiliano Carucci 2000
It came out of the picture in 2000 .
Hey! Thanks for upload this amazing EP! Can you give us a link top download the original files? Thanks in advance
I can if you are still looking.
@@B1akTang1dH4rt I want too, please!
Provavelmente o título se refere aos fãs chatos q não aceitam q ele não toque mais aquele estilo musical q ele tocava no Silverchair.... tá ai um presente pra vcs fãs chatos!
Anybody have lyrics?
On this year the skrillex is not famouse
He should do a duet with Hailey Williams
The Paramore girl
Nope on the this year must be featuring NIN or Gwen stefani
Does anyone know if Dan and Paul still keep in touch? I really hope they do more collaborations. Sigh.
Baby Dissos. 💖💖
