I still don't know what EP means.It looks like an album, I'm calling it an album.
>>128712969it's supposed to be under 30min but some retarded artists like Autechre released 70min "EPs" so now it doesn't mean anything
>>128713131But there have also been many albums in length under 30 minutes.
>>128712969maximum of 6 tracks
EP= "Extended Play"Longer than a single (which often included a few b-sides), but shorter than an album
>>128713448>single>look inside>multiple
>>128713434Thick as a brick had 2
>>128713131>>128713434I remember hearing that The Mars Volta wanted to put the title-track on Frances the Mute but if they did then it would be a double album so they removed it but then it would only be 5 tracks making it an EP so they then divided Cassandra Gemini into 5 tracks.
>>128712969it started with extended play (extended single) that included 2 asides and 2 bsides, so 4 tracks
>>128714592aside and beside what?
>>128715069singles used to be released as 7" vinyls that had 2 sides
>>128716129oh so outdated irrelevant hipster shit
Imo its 3-6 tracks and lenght is about half of what the artists album would be
>>128713131>full album is usually 40 minutes>EP is 10 minutes lessWhat's the point?
>>128716527easy publicity
A record of 45 r.p.m. that plays a longer time than the standard 45 r.p.m. record.
Depends on the genre honestly.
>>12871296945rpm 12-inch record.Fewer songs but better sound quality.
>>128716227The ideal LP is 13 tracks long.
>>128712969It stands for extended play, because it plays for less time than a typical album
>EP>mini album
