[Didn't pay for the bandlab version, so I'm missing the bonus track]

This is a really cool compilation, every track carries their own weight and each one feels unique, whilst still flowing seamlessly and nicely as a collective listen, and I really like the fast pace with the short track lengths, but manages to make it not feel rushed.
Some tracks did fall shorter, but there were no misses.

Few compilations are as cohesive and consistently impressive as 8485's "alpha testing" - an incredible set of quarantine-era singles that still leaves you wishing for a true full-length project, something we've yet to get even half a decade later.
