Guest Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 I've just noticed (yes ok I'm a bit slow) that Mirwais has done tracks for Madonna on Music, American life and COADF. (And for the COADF he produced some of my favs from that album) Do you think in the future he will re-appear to produce the odd Madonna track? (e.g on her first LN album) I could imagine she may pick Stuart, Mirwais, DJ Frank E and Paul to help her do a new album (IMO sounds like a good line up lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightshade Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Hmmm...I think we may see Mirwais' name re-appear in the future, but probably as a songwriter and not a producer. It seems like he and Madonna were quite prolific in the studio and there could be a lot in the vaults we don't know about. I think Mirwais gets a bum rap, but I do understand why. His work is very love it or hate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanders8323 Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 He's done some fantastic work with Madonna: Music, Impressive Instant, Future Lovers, but also some so-so stuff like I Deserve It, Love Profusion, Intervention. I wouldn't care if she ever worked with him again because it always seems to be hit and miss. I say bring on more Stuart Price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sick of the euroclub sound so no more stuart/paul... Mirwais atleast is somewhat interesting and original so that would be ok with me.. What i've heard of Frank E is more or less generic...

Guest Coked Up Baby Boy Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 I prefer Mirwais to Stuart. I liked what him and M did together. It became a very signature style for her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Coked Up Baby Boy Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 AL is heaps better than Music imo. I love Music, but i don't find myself revisiting it as much as some of her other albums from that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 I really love Fighting Spirit and Superpop, both of which show Mirwais can be a very flexible producer and still sound good so I hope we either get some new collabs between him and Madge or some of the vault songs released Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voguerista Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 I hope we see her work with Mirwais again. But, mostly I want Stewart Price back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Well, there's a rumor that one of the "Celebration" releases (either the digital album, or perhaps one of the single EPs/downloads) will have a bonus track referred to as "the one that (almost) got away" -- a leftover from the American Life recording sessions called "Cool" (or "Cool Song"). If they see fit to release this one from the vault, then maybe you'll get your wish for more Mirwais. [by the way, I tend to agree with you -- I like a lot of his work with her. I feel like I'm always (obnoxiously) reminding people that he had a hand in COADF. Love Future Lovers, Impressive Instant, Paradise. And, yes, I love Intervention -- it's beautiful! But really, Stuart seems to edge out Mirwais as a long-time collaborator -- because of all his work with her on tour in addition to albums. Remember, Stuart started touring with her in 2001 on DWT, remixed "Hollywood" and co-wrote "X-Static Process" in 2003, and then did most of COADF with her. Even though Mirwais has loads of bonus tracks and has tracks on three albums, Stuart has three tours and re-imaginings/fresh production on so much of her back catalog due to the touring collabs -- think CT's "Erotica" and the promo tour remix of "Everybody" for just two small examples. And of course -- who do we have to THANK for Stuart and Madonna getting together? Well, that would be MIRWAIS. Haha! So it kinda does all come back to him, huh? LOL! Thank you, Mirwais.] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanders8323 Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Sorry about slamming Intervention since most of you like it. It just doesn't seem to go anywhere for me. Everyone has different tastes I suppose. I think I liked the more uptempo stuff he did rather than the laid back stuff (aside from Nothing Fails, I think that's the best thing Mirwais did for Madonna).

Lucky guy Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 I would love for her to work with Mirwais again. Full on bleepy blippy bits and acoustic guitar on a loop PLEASE. I love it all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Etips Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 I think he is her all time tackiest collaborator and would rather she never works with him again. Mirwais' production is akin to wearing a green vest with burgundy pants. Just gaudy. I was able to digest certain songs he did on Music, but his shtick got old quick. The American Life album proved that he was a one trick pony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

afrolito Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 I can't fathom how anyone cal say Intervention or even Love Profusion is a so so song. They are two of her greatest achievements in pop music. Mirwais was a genius collaborator for her, and I'd love to see him come back once in a while. Stuart Price can go flush himself.

DJ Frank E???...based on that shit demo?? HELL NO. Well musically speaking they're average songs. Lyrically speaking they're above many other things Madonna or her co-writers have written. There are more interesting songs in a musical sense on American Life, like the title track, Hollywood, and I'm So Stupid (though the lyrics leave alot to be desired). I tend to pay more attention to musical structure than to lyrics. The way a song sounds is mostly what draws me to it, and Love Profusion and Intervention seem to stay in the same place and don't vary much in their musicality.
