bdevil89 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Just was browsing youtube and stumbled upon this youtube video made about a year ago - very insider look at recording process of Coldplay's album - Well they are using xylophones for sure and perhaps part of the title having xylo in it (or not) - anyway, check out the piano behind chris, is that an early incarnation of the current one used for the festival - also remember them asking someone to build them a solar system or something space related to inspire them during the recording of the album. That and with the back to the future theme song points us into the future and perhaps outer space. I can't wait for the tracklist seriously, there could be some real surprises - here's the video, wonder what people think - it's cool seeing the actual recording process, is that jonny off camera playing a little fuzz guitar? I think Guy messes up a little on the xylo or just misses his mark, or perhaps that was intentional.

Brent Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Awww I remember watching this video a really long time ago. It's interesting to see now that we know some about the new album. :surprised: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyFavouriteMemory Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Makes me want to play a xylophone... :inquisitive: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pansonic Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Could the name of the album actually be.... My Loxy Loto?)))) and have nothing to do with xylophones? On the other hand, isn't that the xylophone sound in the MX song? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor!42! Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 i love listening to this since we have some info now. Also, i agree, the piano in the background could actually be a mock-up or prototype for the one they used in the festivals :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cleggy Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 I don't think that melody will be on the album in any form, I think they're just experimenting with what they can do with an xylophone. This experimenting may have eventually became the melody on MX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wickett Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 I'm starting to think Xylobrytes is a song, and that will be the main instrument. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Nails Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 I hope we will hear this little tune somewhere sometime. I'd like it if Chris and Guy would do this live.....:wink3: No chance, probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NumbersGirl Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 my favorite thing is the old-school projector in the background :nod: Actually I was just thinking the other day that people should go through the prior Studiofeeds now that things have been released, see if they can notice things that are familiar now (that weren't before).

JackZ Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 They're probably just spending all their time figuring out how to do the VLVODAAHF art history. Probably trying to get a medium to help them talk to the ghost of Eugene Delacroix... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdevil89 Posted August 19, 2011 Author Share Posted August 19, 2011 Listening to MX on youtube - you totally hear the xylophones, but the melody in this vid is clearly some other song/melody - I hope the track Mylo Xyloto is a full track, and not 30s intro to Hurts like Heaven a la Life in Technicolor. The opening sounds amazing, ethereal and deserving of a longer track length. Can't wait to see the tracklisting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
