Re: Underworld Spotting [Again]
 

I have a couple:

I was watching the Australian Open tennis on TV in January when this segment came on: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dO9m3kgbQ2M.
You can hear Moon in Water (Instrumental), and I definitely heard Always Loved a Film when it was being broadcast but it must have been cut out of this video. There might be a note or two of it right at the start but I could be imagining it...?

Last week I was flicking through radio stations when I got to SBS Chill and 8 Ball was playing! I've been listening to that station on and off ever since, but I haven't heard any more UW yet.

Haha, the other day I discovered that there's a Dr. Hyde-Smith not too far from where I live.

Re: Underworld Spotting [Again]
 

he mentions Plastic Ono Band releasing a single every week, but they never quite did it, did they?


the only band I can think of that actually did something like this is They Might Be Giants, who I believe did it twice, once in 2015 and once in 2018. like UW, they also came up with a ton of great material

Re: Underworld Spotting [Again]
 

British Sea Power released an EP a month in 2012 as a way to get it out there and see the responses before whittling it down to an album, which became Machineries of Joy.



it was their worst album to date, but the process was fun at least

Re: Underworld Spotting [Again]
 

hah!

Re: Underworld Spotting [Again]
 

Man, that twitter thread is something else.

Re: Underworld Spotting [Again]
 

Dude got ratio'd pretty hard. Deserved.

Re: Underworld Spotting [Again]
 

But he didn’t?
Not many fans of limmy here, then?
Half of his replies were just people trying to circle his in-jokes back to him.

Re: Underworld Spotting [Again]
 

I'd say that's pretty good UW defense. Strictly speaking a ratio is when your replies outnumber your retweets, meaning your joke wasn't good enough to pass unmolested.

Re: Underworld Spotting [Again]
 

SHENANIGANS. getting ratio'd is when your replies outnumber your likes! RTs don't factor since it's easier to reply and complain than like so much that you post it on your own TL.


edit: I am academically wrong. the initial factor was reply-to-RT being 2:1, but now they are lumping in likes and RTs to replies.
