♫♪  GOLDEN LIVING ROOM and t e l e p a t h テレパシー能力者 - “FINAL PHANTASY VIII”

Ignorance is seriously bliss when it comes to expectation in music. Like, if you’re listening to a pop song and have no idea you’ve really ever heard something similar, you’ll probably think that pop song’s gimmick is genuine, legit, and huge. On the other hand, when listening to a beat-tape or disco or [a lot of Dream Catalogue’s discography], it’s also pleasant not being familiar with samples they’re using, thus airing an originality that’s either “Wait, I think that’s…” or “How did they think to put this together?” or *O_O* …also no sample snitching.

Ask Mr. P. I never want any knowledge on samples, ever. And typically when I listen to the original, the song that samples it typically does a much better job, and completely bombs the older music for me. Either way, GOLDEN LIVING ROOM is going a a peace-path this year on collaborations, and this time, it’s with the infamous Internetest, t e l e p a t h テレパシー能力者. Whether these sounds are straight samples, or they made Mario mushroom and PSOne start sounds on synths. Maybe these are all vocals. I don’t know. I don’t make music. And I have trouble remembering. So I’m blessed t e l e p a t h テレパシー能力者 teamed up with Midwest titan, GOLDEN LIVING ROOM for “FINAL PHANTASY VIII,” and then added a video to help me bask in their productionist nirvana.

Find their collaboration on Dream Catalogue and “Never look back. Never look back. Never look back. Never look back.”
