Stay safe NZ Mixers

Searching Youtube now, I see samplers for Hozier and the last Madonna album, but that's about it for really big names. The large majority of kpop groups do it now though, which is why I suggested it several months ago. It's great for energizing a base.

Nice review

That reviewer didn't figure out they'd "learnt to harmonize" before? Phhht.

I chose to take that as a compliment.

Still rising in the US and it's passed JA. Its regained some ground in the UK too.

Apparently, Touch, Nobody Like You and Down & Dirty will be released before Friday.

What kind of self-sabotage

I feel like this is part of their newfound streaming intelligence. Get the album tracks to stream to raise the average with strongly streaming SOTMX and they can get higher charting points. Otherwise, I don't get releasing all of the album before it goes on sale.

In the US, the tracks arent averaged but all streams counted so again more chart points. Maybe they think some undecideds will commit if they hear more songs they like too.

I know right. It's like did he not see them perform Don't Let Go on XF or even listen to songs like Boy on Salute which was released like three years ago

If touch is a grat track, does that not confirm a single version will have a feature to differentiate it?

Plot Twist!


I'm not as generous as Felp, I took it as a swipe.

On another note is this XF Aus performance going to be effective in a low rated, highly criticized season?

Hopefully not.

I'd rather have official instant grats than leaks!

With regards to that review, haven't we had a few conversations on here about the lack of harmonising in their ballads? I wonder just how much the GP is aware of their talents in that area. Obviously they would have seen them on XF (and from any singles in which they harmonise), but they're progressed so much since then and I wonder if the singles are showcasing this as much as they could be?

Either that, or the guy just has a poor memory!

#82 in the US as some tracks fall down.

Well that scared the living shit out of me!!

Waiting for my emails to load to find out what I do about work and decided to come check the thread. Daylight is starting to break in the last hour or so, the damn thing happened a few minutes after midnight.

On the song releases, I wonder if they do it to discourage leaks because they are available in official forms so they gain official streams, sales etc before leakers can do their damage.

Hope you're okay, Shayna.

Whew glad to hear from you SJ! I heard there were tsunami waves generated of about 6 feet.

Hasnt the rise of streaming neutered the illegal download impact? People can listen for free officially with ease now.

I'm going to really try and hold off until Friday for any more instant grats as I feel like I've already heard a lot of the album, but it does seem like a good idea to build up streaming before it's actual release.

Fingers crossed for their first #1 album.

No waves where I am, tsunami alert is for the east coast of NZ and I live on the west (granted we are literally like 2 hours away from the east coast here) but it's not impacting as badly as expected......*knock on wood*


Oh yeah but I mean if the song is legally available to listen to on streaming platforms there is less rimpact on someone leaking the same thing if they were to get their hands on it early vs it being made available early.....I do find it weird they are doing it with touch though considering it's suppose to be the next single. Unless like suggested it hints at a feature for the single release version.

Glad you're ok SJ!

And I REALLY want them not to have an Ariana feature on Touch, it sounds perfect the way it is and I really think it's the one. I've been addicted to the snippet.

If they have a feature would it be her or Yet Another Male Rapper?

Please not Ariana. I love Ariana and her music but when it comes to dancing, she really isn't the best. LM are excellent dancers and I wouldn't want them to sacrifice dancing to appear in a video with her.

I wouldn't mind an RnB singer or rapper as long as they are relevant to right now and they are doing well themselves in charts. But I agree with previous posts, they don't need a collaboration and I think the song will sound perfectly fine without.

How does a feature work if the video was just shot? The usual splicing in a person who wasnt there?
