finally streamin ‘cowboy, again’ by cowboy black ! thread of thoughts
lots of ambiance n white noise. instrumentation is v much his style ! (plus there’s sum strings n ... i’m a sucker for those) i luv the vocal layering n quiet harmonies scattered throughout the track sm <3 the outro is dark n leaves me curious 4 obsidian ! https://open.spotify.com/track/0WMlGAplvy0KNMWIEZEcAo?si=MnVrzdmRRdKZtC5hmCzG9w">https://open.spotify.com/track/0WM...
THE BREATHY INSTRUMENTAL. IT ALL SOUNDS SO TWISTED. the arrangement makes it feel v much like a theater house on the verge of collapsing hosting a three act play. i luv the direction of the album n now experimental it all feels https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🖤" title="Schwarzes Herz" aria-label="Emoji: Schwarzes Herz"> https://open.spotify.com/track/1fJ0jig5f3iid2piVyDExd?si=CIvWnUW7RnmVfpVVl088CQ">https://open.spotify.com/track/1fJ...
i genuinely gasped listenin to the beginning n had to fully start over. the entire track is UNBELIEVABLE n esoteric n i think cowboy black completely rules the domain that is dis brooding sound. also ... his vocal range is def shown off here n. i. luv. it. https://open.spotify.com/track/4FY2OR7jBBpxYYCuembiE6?si=3B1zmDLiTUOIyXalk34yAg">https://open.spotify.com/track/4FY...
feels like im reading an angry journal entry n i can feel all his negative emotion n resentment washing over me. def an interlude track n kinda simple instrumentally but i don’t think it needs more. luv dis almost demonic layered vocal. also.. sounds itchy https://open.spotify.com/track/08MbT73Mtad8jz0arcpIvT?si=QYX9PZ0VTa6UFMI6npU5Nw">https://open.spotify.com/track/08M...
his vocals are one of my fav things about him <3 so raw yet majestic. the horns in the bg demonstrate how versatile n experimental his prod can b. honestly.... could rlly b a bomb ass single. also makes me incredibly nostalgic for self-titled 0:’) https://open.spotify.com/track/2blmIiZrTrwhpDonV4HZcF?si=2Qg1wJnYR4WsMUy6W-wtcw">https://open.spotify.com/track/2bl...
so lamenting n sonically feels v relatable. i’ve forever associated these droning atmospheric sounds n echoey drum loops w him bc he uses em so mf well ♡ the outro vocal effect is so ... haunting as if a whistling teapot could sing (? if it makes sense) https://open.spotify.com/track/0Ipi61s18oCOCudekeDTvQ?si=P1hIsmfbTqSsuVM8vleXog">https://open.spotify.com/track/0Ip...
IMMEDIATELY FREAKED AT 00:01. BEEN WAITIN FOR DIS INSTRUMENTAL. SHIT. i had to listen twice bc i physically could not contain myself. gen my fav song he’s ever released. so climactic n full n stuffed w every emotion imaginable. i never wanted it to end. https://open.spotify.com/track/4WK2z5gXFHoDrP1bJATE2y?si=WaybNqGCRl-bsaPUCHu-ow">https://open.spotify.com/track/4WK...
overall cowboy, again is jus another example of how dedicated cowboy black is to his music n how open w his emotions he is willing to b. from his prod to his lyricism to even the album structure it all feels purposeful. i genuinely feel as though i get to understand him more—
—to the point where it almost feels like i’m peering over his shoulder as he vents into a journal. he manages to take complex human emotions and transcribes them into rhymes n instruments n melancholy works that leave me fulfilled.
i’ve forever enthused (probs to the point of being annoying !) about how excellent his self-titled album is n i can’t wait to do the same w cowboy, again. pls pls plsss take ur time to listen. he’s one of my fav artists for a reason ! https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="♥" title="Herz" aria-label="Emoji: Herz"> thank u for bringin dis work to life.
