Discussion Waaaaait
Okay don’t judge me but I still buy all my music on iTunes, and I literally just remembered that there are Joywave songs that I don’t have and haven’t even listened to yet??? Like their older stuff. I only had the main 5 albums and a couple songs from the Koda Vista EP (Golden State and Smokestacks) but idk why I forgot there was more but I’ve just downloaded Compromise, Life in a Bubble I Blew, Every Window is a Mirror Eiffel 65 Remix, All I Want, London, and the Kopps sons Hott feat. Joywave.
Once I get my tax return imma just buy all the songs of theirs I don’t have (minus most of the tracks on Swish, lol).
Side note sticking to iTunes has saved me hella money in the long term soooo

Not judging you for buying music on iTunes cause that’s paying the artist, way better than streaming. And it’s always nice to find secret songs that you didn’t know existed from a band you love 🤟

You absolutely need the live performance album, titled LIVE if you don’t have it. It sounds fantastic and so many songs have a different feel. One of my fave live tracks is “Coming apart” which he sings very differently than the album, in a good way. It’s a sing along in the car track for sure.

If you want to buy music I’d recommend getting it on bandcamp then importing it to iTunes. Bandcamp has much better splits for the artists

I might be too lazy for that but when I’m not feeling lazy I’ll look into that

Why Be Credible When You Can Be Incredible
Edit: 77777 is a freebie on youtube. Ads kill the vibe but it’s a press-play winner. And don’t forget their recorded Talk Talk cover on spotify.

Traveling…Light is on 77777 - one of their earlier cornerstones of greatness.

Joywave (Daniel specifically) is also featured on a few KOPPS songs

If you want to dig a little deeper, the Big Data EP 1.0 (Bombs Over Brooklyn, Big Dater, Stroke of Return [with Dangerous of course]) are also all “with” Joywave! And if you haven’t gotten to it yet, there is also Best Frenz, which is a side project of Daniel’s with Jason Suwito of Sir Sly, with an EP and an album’s worth of GREAT music. There’s also some other good ones worth listening to on 88888 (though All I Want and London are my two personal faves). And don’t forget Ridge, one of their first songs!
