And it's always good to switch the brain on before posting. ;)

You are right, as always.

Unless it's 20 and then we'd figure out it's a double...

Ah true... maybe it is? More songs to make up for the wait :) I don't know if more songs would be better though, I'd rather have better songs in a smaller amount

GF:

"I listened to the acetates fresh from the Vinyl mastering today. It sounds absolutely fabulous"

Why of course it does!  ::)

LOL

Best acetates ever!

why of course, the category is "The most objective reference".  ;D

ok, on the serious note, does he EVER lie? So I don't see this time but to trust him again. Moreover they prove they know how it's done over and over again!

I remember very well that I once asked for track lengths and got a pretty harsh "Doh"-like answer. It seems that track numbers and lengths are purely a measure of quantity to him, something that is not connectable with the "Art" that they create. You can call it snobbish, but in a friendly way. The pure pleasure of get-a-lifers about "the more songs the better"  is a concept that he cannot understand obviously.

Regarding Superval's «I'd prefer no guest artists», I tend to agree (even though you don't seem to agree with me about synths, Superval ;)).

It's probably no coincidence that Shangri-La - not featuring any guests or synths - is my favourite of his albums sonically. If it has one flaw, then maybe that it's overly long. Which brings us back to the number of songs ...

I think this is the list we should be watching:

https://www.ascap.com/repertory#ace/works/publisher/76954/WILL%20D%20SIDE%20LTD

72 songs published by Will D Side. All from the latest albums. I think the 72 will go up to 85-90 or something when the new songs are added...

Thanks for your effort. This is an easy way to check daily if...

Yes, but most of them are "organic keyboards", synths are not the same than a hammond, for instance... both have keys but the synths imitate sounds that are not natural for an organ and a piano.

Personally, I would prefer the new album to be MK without any guest artists to dilute him, but obviously that's not going to happen!

This is what you said  ;)

I understood the same, but that could be because we are not English native speakers, so we could had missed details  :)
