Andre 3000 - New Blue Sun (Discussion Thread)

[Manolo]

This is more like an experimental jazz or ambient album. It reminds me of Weather Report and In A Silent Way by Miles Davis

“WARNING, NO BARS”

That Night in Hawaii is hard !!

This shyt is garbage....for cacs, c00ns, new blacks, and rainbow gang

 

[TheJet]

How do WE know for sure 3K is the one behind the flute. What if someone else ghostblew?? for him?

Other than that it's cool (based off first track)). I probably won't return to it much if at all. First track sounds like an Andre 3000 cover for Breath Of The Wild. On headphones it sounds well mixed, crisp (clear high quality), and with a big soundstage.

I ain't even mad at this.
had to take an assessment exam ...played this and got a 95
I ain't even mad at 3 stacks

Listening to this album for the first time high as hell while also reading yall reactions in thread has me in tears

 

[Tenchi Ryu]

Opinion...and I'm not saying this in a negative way. This a dope album to sleep to. Very theraputic ambiance type energy on this. This gon stay on my background music playlist rotation.

Funny shyt he said in the interview with GQ when they asked him how he anticipated people to react to the album, he said that maybe people will start crying or just start meditating or doing yoga

I swear this guy

 

[Redwood]

Is it terrible brehs?

 

[THE 101]

Drake put out 4 albums in like a year span and all we can get from 3000 is some flute music. shyt ain’t fair

Going by the quality of Drake's recent music maybe he should release a flute album

 

[Metal Face]

i dont wanna see this flute blower in anyones top 10 list

 

[Family Lives Matter]

Lil b did it first

Ironically the flute stuff might be the worst part of this album.

There's some nice ambient and electronic textures, keys and subtle percussion....but the flute playing is whatever.

It ain't terrible music though....if you like this but haven't delved too deep into ambient music, some of my favorite ambient albums from this year:

Laurel Halo - Atlas (might be my overall AOTY - incredible music)
Purelink - Signs
Lucy Liyou - Dog Dreams
Ryuichi Sakamoto – 12
Tim Hecker - No Highs
