Title: Tinashe’s producer stanning for Brandy’s “Lucid Dreams” (remix preview inside)
Post by: b7 on September 04, 2021, 10:33:05 AM
Stan! Sounds like he wants to remix it? I LOVE this song and the original production but I'm excited to see what he does with it if so. I'm sure the girls can't wait to compare  :dead: I'll be enjoying both

I wonder if he's doing it or he's just saying he had a lucid dream about doing so  :kii: either way, he better stan.  I hope one day some of ya'll give the album another shot

This therapy session from 1 to 15 omg. Lyrically, the metaphors and all ..  this is up there with Afrodisiac for me. Easily. She did her mf THING

maybe!

Either way, we'd have two version and i won't complain. I think the original slays. Some of Camper's best work

She made him dig deep to the point where it's actually shocking he did some of these beats
:plzstop:

Listening to some of the work he did with other Artists, it just pales in comparison to me.

I'm here for it. Not the same DJ, but I live for the house version of Jazmine's Pricetags probably even more than the original. It's like a completely new song.

I'm still curious about the "B7" mastering. Like Brandy's ear is too detailed to have some those songs sound like they were mixtape-ish. :uhh: That really concerned me especially an artist of her caliber. The album ain't bad. It's most certainly grown on me but that mastering shit was a huge factor as to why I could not get in when the project dropped. I pray that the next project is mastered differently.

You should give it another listen. The engineer behind is grammy award winning for a reason

There's nothing wrong with it IMO.  You're just used to that super polished sound but Brandy is VERY intentional. Her ear isn't the issue IMO, it's exactly the way she wanted and everyone around her agreed. It's mixed like an Indi album, but i wouldnt get that confused with "Mixtape". The backgrounds are as present as the leads for the first time in her career and i LOVE that shit.


Listen to it on Tidal or Apple. It's fucking AMAZING  :kii:   give it another chance man. I had a problem with a couple songs at first but completely understand now.


Here's the main engineer:  https://www.instagram.com/jaycenjoshua/


if you don't like it --- totally understood. I'd never judge you for it -- but questioning her ear? LOL nah

Lucid Dreamsm, Borderline, Say something d;;ddlldf they fucking SLAYED

b7 is something you have to sit with and really listen. This ain't twoeleven - that gave mixtape to me. A collection of nice songs. b7 is an EXPERIENCE. Again, just my opinion. Im not shitting on yours. It's just the questioning of her ear that im way iffy about. No ma'am. She's intentional and u know that king

THEE Lashawn Daniels approved by the way. The worst mixing of her career is on the Human album because she had no say so. You can barely hear all the work she put into her vocals and stacks. People going back and fucking with her work without her knowledge. No ma'am

God7 >

The way we're in the dream with her the entire time. Omf


In an interview last year she said the sound she's making with her voice in the middle of the song are healing/meditating sounds. It's the part of the song where she's supposed to be waking up/feeling better.


GENIUS

Context is everything. I've grown to really love and appreciate the album especially her being able to share her story how she wanted to share it. It wasn't clear for me as a listener and a fan if the mixing was a creative choice or some overlooked detail. Again, it's a beautiful album. Not my favorite Brandy project, but I've grown to appreciate it more and more especially the former part of the album.

Really love the album and the themes. It was a very courageous move for her to spotlight of mental illness and to toy with it. My only gripe has always been the lack of variety in the sounds, too many of the beats sound too similar at times.

I'm still curious about the "B7" mastering. Like Brandy's ear is too detailed to have some those songs sound like they were mixtape-ish. :uhh: That really concerned me especially an artist of her caliber. The album ain't bad. It's most certainly grown on me but that mastering shit was a huge factor as to why I could not get in when the project dropped. I pray that the next project is mastered differently.
You should give it another listen. The engineer behind is grammy award winning for a reason

There's nothing wrong with it IMO.  You're just used to that super polished sound but Brandy is VERY intentional. Her ear isn't the issue IMO, it's exactly the way she wanted and everyone around her agreed. It's mixed like an Indi album, but i wouldnt get that confused with "Mixtape". The backgrounds are as present as the leads for the first time in her career and i LOVE that shit.


Listen to it on Tidal or Apple. It's fucking AMAZING  :kii:   give it another chance man. I had a problem with a couple songs at first but completely understand now.


Here's the main engineer:  https://www.instagram.com/jaycenjoshua/


if you don't like it --- totally understood. I'd never judge you for it -- but questioning her ear? LOL nah

Context is everything. I've grown to really love and appreciate the album especially her being able to share her story how she wanted to share it. It wasn't clear for me as a listener and a fan if the mixing was a creative choice or some overlooked detail. Again, it's a beautiful album. Not my favorite Brandy project, but I've grown to appreciate it more and more especially the former part of the album.
B7 had its flaws, but the brilliant moments balanced it out. I have a lot of theories about this album and how it was conceptualized and produced, but it doesn't matter at this point.

It's not among her best, but there are some amazing moments that I cherish because it showed her growth, and it is her most vulnerable and personal album to date. I felt like I really understood Brandy for the first time.

I think my faves in terms of production are Saving all my Love, say something, Unconditional, Borderline and I am More

No tomorrow is my shit but i wanted it to knock harder during certain moments like the live version and have a bit more nuance. She did tf outta that vocally tho! And i love her writing on it

This performance of it is my fave (vocally)

Wait i forgot Rather be and Lucid dreams
Ssmndndndn

Yea Camper did his fuckin thing along with the Co producers. No doubt about it in my mind. 

The beat changes and that portal opening on "Rather be" reminds me of thought you said with Diddy toward the end

:plzstop:

Fucking AMAZING  :uhh:

Stan! Sounds like he wants to remix it? I LOVE this song and the original production but I'm excited to see what he does with it if so. I'm sure the girls can't wait to compare  :dead: I'll be enjoying both

Brandy's shit always tends to reverse and smack you in the fucking face when you least expect it. So many people who skimmed through b7 and trashed it at first listen are gonna be lashed sooner or later.  :supluv:

!!!!!!

That's how i KNOW it's one of her most creative and risky projects in years. It's ok for people not to use at first(or ever) and Brandy said this out of her own mouth last year during the pandemic. I watched damn near every interview and she said "hey, if people don't like it at first, i hope they'll come back to it and like it"

She said something VERY similar in the Full moon era and i live :kii: it took me quite a while to realize that the album is literally a therapy session like Afro called it. Unbelievable

And reading the REAL lyrics and catching all the clever metaphors she, Lashawn DANIELS AKA big shiz and Kaydence came up with .... Baby :kii: Lashawn never put his stamp on some bullshit. Ever. He always told Queen when something was basic or should be left in the trash

There's only 1 song I want a proper mixing explanation for and that's Unconditional Oceans... I need to hear from her mouth why she mixed that amazing song like that lol

lmao that song is awful, I don't see how some of y'all like it. Worst song on the album even worse than the dreadful High Heels and Bye Bipolar.
You are delusional. I don't understand how some of y'all can be fans of Brandy and not appreciate the topics and healing power of this song for her own mental state...its selfish.

b7 is something you have to sit with and really listen. This ain't twoeleven - that gave mixtape to me. A collection of nice songs. b7 is an EXPERIENCE. Again, just my opinion. Im not shitting on yours. It's just the questioning of her ear that im way iffy about. No ma'am. She's intentional and u know that king

THEE Lashawn Daniels approved by the way. The worst mixing of her career is on the Human album because she had no say so. You can barely hear all the work she put into her vocals and stacks. People going back and fucking with her work without her knowledge. No ma'am

God7 >
Explain that Human part please, I need to get into it. I know some ppl say its loud and too autotuned etc but her voice is pretty forefront to me.

Its nothing to be curious about, the mixing was trash. Just because someone is Grammy nominated doesn't mean they understand Brandy's voice for every song. On Full Moon her voice sits perfectly, on a lot of songs that Brandy has done in her career, the average listener misses a lot of what she does because her voice isn't sitting properly.

It could have been intentional on Bran's part, but I trust her vocally, not when it comes to mixing. It could have had a much sharper and professional sound quality while also getting the message across and the interludes could have been used much better. Those 1st 8 songs are where its at and she brings it home with Love Again and Bye Bipolar. In between that, I wish she had taken more of a dreamy/optimistic "Good Days" route and Bran has those songs.

Where are the rest of the songs. "I Need Some Time" would have fit perfectly.

its not really about her lead vocals but the backgrounds and harmonies are what are NOT in your face like her recent project (i fucking love that about b7).

Everything is in your face on her recordings post Two eleven. Some don't use and i get that but yea. A lot of times there were parts that were drowned out and damn near silenced on Human and you'd have to dig and claw and reeeeally tune in order to hear some of the ghost vocals or simple 2-3 part harmonies that she makes sound so special

"Fall" is a perfect example of this. A lot of that is her fault though :dead: I'm not the delusional fan (all the time lmao) that would say otherwise. She wasn't as involved as she should have been and let a lot of people play with her vocals and all sorts of shit in the creative process

Rodney was right about a lot of that but it's old shit now so I'm good. I think most of the fans are proud of where she is today :wub: 2008 - hell, even 2016 seems like a lifetime ago.

The way she's evolved and healed is just so beautiful.  I LOVE the Human album by the way - more than TwoEleven :dead: a lot more, these days. But Two' has some amazing songs for sure
