Just got on tonight and read through the posts, I see my comments are being discussed heartily again



Never gonna live it down am I? I don't usually take part (much) in the smatty discussions but one comment and I go down in history

Finding the boundary is quite an apt term to use in this case.

Seven Summers is a huge step up in that respect and I prefer the production and instrumentation on that album to Letters, for the most part. However I think the overall quality of the songs is better on Letters. There are (in my view) 4 or 5 really quality songs on it that stand up to the songs on Letters, whereas I think there are probably 10 on Letters.”
This is exactly why I find Darwyn hard to get into. The songs are potentially really good but they sound like demos. I'm not sure why, were they in a crappy studio for those recordings? Seven Summers is a huge step up.
I've actually been wondering lately whether I prefer Letters or 7S, a merge of the two with my favourite songs would be the ideal album

Haha this made me lol

I agree about trying to broaden his market. His fans seems to be mostly young women which is down to the X Factor but that's not really who his music should solely be aimed at. I hope this can be ironed out over time.
