DIVA 666 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Last part is true, and they all sound like they could stand out on their own but putting them together has overwhelmed the sound But they could all be singles it's scary See, I think they all balance each other out together. When I listen to the album from start to finish, they really blend and become one piece. We're all Stronger Together! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
U-GO-BOY 1,608 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 I think MJH sounds too busy, there's so much going on tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mast 980 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Venus, Aura, and Gypsy have horrible production. The rest are fine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ascetic 0 Posted January 31, 2014 Author Share Posted January 31, 2014 I agree with you mostly, but DWUW is VERY clean. Idk I didn't like it but I'm not much of a fan of R&B Maybe if there was slightly more production, but I'll respect it as a track :) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Runway 27,876 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 DWUW is like her best produced song :awkney: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ascetic 0 Posted January 31, 2014 Author Share Posted January 31, 2014 DWUW production feels clean to me too. But nice to see appreciation for the Goddess' own handiwork in the OP I play Venus on Vevo ~100 times a day hoping Gagz gets the message that I need it on radio now :hor: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helix 1,474 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 I think it sounds really clean and polished to me. I mean it's Zedd and Madeon, how could it not be. My faves have to be Aura, ARTPOP and Mary Jane Holland. They're so like crazy and amazing but clean too. I love it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ascetic 0 Posted January 31, 2014 Author Share Posted January 31, 2014 its a little too clean. it lacks interesting production in a lot of areas, less detail. when all the intrumentals leaked, they where awesome, but not once did i go "omg i never knew that sound existed!" i was just able to hear things more clear from sounds i already had a hunch where already there. btw as an instrumental album>>>>>>the production on any other of her albums. i can listen to born this way the instrumentals and still enjoy it as its own album it had a stronger direction, it didn't sound like watered down trends of whats going on at the time. that being said, the first 4 songs on ARTPOP have my favorite production, and then its dwuw, ARTPOP, swine, fashion!, mjh, and gypsy and applause have really good production, but im kind of indifferent to them. they fit for the song, but it sort of is what it is. gypsy has like a few nice synths and i like when i can hear madeon's influence, but in general its just a watered down edge of glory with a little bit of hair in there. and applause i like its production, i like the tempo, the slight bubblegum j-pop synth throughout, but right when i heard it, i thought of the year 2010. it sounds like a 3OH!3 song, mixed with kelis, but this is all production wise. (melodically, its like bowie meets, well gaga's signature catchy hook choruses.) I can see what you're saying Being a fan of glitch and artists like Kid606 I definitely see that BTW is far more produced, but I also feel like ARTPOP is offering a lot! BTW was an amazing influence and production, but she can't always have that kind of production. A lot of people thought it was messy, but I loved it. I'd just love to see what other genres she can dip into and do them well, you know? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ARTPOP didnt have to sound the same, but i do wish it was a little more interesting/detailed than it is. i need more madeon, more zedd, (good zedd, not "stay the night" zedd) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

djBuffoon 12,122 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 It's sounds pretty ****ing pristine to me. BTW's production was highly inventive and ambitious, but way overdone at points (the title track, for example). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ascetic 0 Posted January 31, 2014 Author Share Posted January 31, 2014 wait isnt there a synthesizer named after him? Pretty sure there are a lot of things named after him I know that he had his own label part of Casablanca records, and he helped to propel disco into mainstream, and helped Daft Punk with RAM Plus he has over 200 Gold/Platinum (and multiplatinum) records under his belt, so I def would LOVE to see him work with Gaga since this is an innovative man who has seen it all, and Gaga is an artistic with a new vision, so I can see only big things coming from a duo Plus, he was the first to pioneer recording a track before recording the vocals (extremely common if not the norm nowadays) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bio 23,538 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Swine, Donatella, Mary Jane Holland and Fashion are probably the most overproduced songs in Gaga's career. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GagaDragon 10 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 BTW is my favourite album by far but have to agree ARTPOP had the much cleaner production. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
