aight.

the artist has appeared on The Austin 100 before.

So not there right now?

i.e. not one of these?

 

[bfly]

I can't keep up!

(That what I really look like on a treadmill, btw. Evil things.)

So there will be a record at the end, right?

yes, I'm gonna say a bunch of things over the next few weeks and people will eliminate guesses. sort of an Animal, Vegetable, Mineral? deal.

then I will confirm what it is.


.... or that's how it's supposed to go. in reality, as you can see, it will probably be a couple dudes talking shit, everyone else just talking, and then one person miraculously landing on the album in 2 days so we have nothing else to do.

hopefully some food conversations. I love food.

So not there right now?

i.e. not one of these?

I forgot about one for this year since there was only a few hundred artists for SXSW virtual. I will confirm that the artist is not on The Austin 100 for 2021.

a couple dudes talking shit

Happy to be of service

On the other hand, does this confirm that the artist was at a previous SXSW? I suppose that doesn't eliminate much, but it's something....

Coincidence? I think...maybe.

 

[ByersVinyl]

So wait for it - Ive spent “some minutes”. on a guess. And it’s actually based on a couple of the very loose clues and my huge mouthful of assumption.
But for the first time I have a guess which wasn’t given to me in a dream after bathing in a bath full of wine.
So for what it’s worth I’m going for this artist (actually never heard of him)

Israel Nash - Album choice a bit of a stab in the dark but gone for 2021 Topaz. Although that’s an EP so maybe should go for 2018s “Lifted”




Given Ive made a modicum of effort I’m gonna spend this rainy Saturday morning listening to it.

I am going to wager the odds are the artist being female or female fronted. In other words, I would cut a lot of options out of consideration based on my perception about how @bfly would choose to leverage this opportunity.

 

[Joe Mac]

choose to leverage this opportunity.

That choice of language

 

[debianlinux]

Given @bfly’s exemplary taste and tendency to pull out stuff we’ve not necessarily heard of I think it’s more likely to be someone great that’s lesser heard of...

I'll admit you said it better. But my point still stands.

 

[Joe Mac]

I'll admit you said it better. But my point still stands.

Yeah I don’t think it’s a wrong conclusion, the odds are that it’s more likely that a female artist(s) will be celebrated this month. Just the way it’s written and the language creates a tone that I don’t think is present or warranted.

 

[bfly]

is this thing on

not sure if I should provide another shitty clue, or if y'all should ask some questions that I will consider answering

 

[Joe Mac]

consider answering

there no way any of us will ask a question deemed worth

 

[bfly]

there no way any of us will ask a question deemed worth

at least you know yourself

 

[debianlinux]

How many studio album releases does the artist have?

 

[jaycee]

at least you know yourself

 

[debianlinux]

I'd do a new poo clue if I were you.

 

[bfly]

a whole lotta jokers in here, but in an attempt to be helpful @gaporter

• Rasputina - Frustration Plantation : @Joe Mac salty!
• just "Forever" ft. John Stamos on repeat : @gaporter silly!
• Simon & Garfunkel - Sounds of Silence : @Colonel_Angus snarky!
• Mariah Carey - Butterfly : @Lee Newman at sea!
• Okay Kaya - Watch this Liquid Pour Itself : @Jonathan Y
• Mikaela Davis - Delivery : @Indymisanthrope
• Toothless - The Pace of the Passing : @Lee Newman
• Lucy Rose - Something's Changing : @Lee Newman
• Fionn Regan - 100 Acres of Sycamore : @Lee Newman
• Julia Holter - Loud City Song : @Rip_City
• Slayer - Show No Mercy : @Ericj32
• Israel Nash - Lifted : @ByersVinyl (or is it Topaz?)

also, there were artists brought up by @jaycee and @debianlinux but no album attached.

+ direct elimination clue courtesy of @nolalady and my juice lady: it is not Beats Antique. just for fun, here is the video they made the year I worked with them (and the source of the gif)

I'd do a new poo clue if I were you.

well now that they are confirmed poo clues, I don't wanna do either

@gaporter not sure if I missed any guesses, but considering this thread... I doubt it. I didn't do any eliminations based on hints because geez I’m not y'alls mom.

You be the thread‘s mom.

@gaporter be the threads under-experienced, under-paid and over stressed day care worker.

I’m overthinking this...

 

[bfly]

You knew it was true when YOU called it poo, boo*

*okay i'm done, even i don't like what i'm doing here, i apologize

I was repeating that because I'm still salty from being told that.

I've bookmarked @debianlinux's q- it's a fine one, but not one I want to answer today.
