鄭宜農 [Enno Cheng] - 圓缺 [Moon Phases]
85

Highly electronical production , a follow-up after her almost-a-decade collaboration with the electronic producer Chunho . When you have one experienced DJ to produce your album , it is easy to expect a danc-y listening experience , whether the overall mood expressed was high or low . The listening experience remind me of /Róisín Murphy-DJ Koze <Hit Parade> /Oklou-Danny L Harle <Choke Enough> /FKA Twigs-Koreless <EUSEXUA> .
Songwriter-DJ Producers duo are ... read more

Jefferson Qian - 请与失落迷因对话 (Please! Have a conversation with the lost meme)

taking lots of ideas from PC Music , the BUBBLEGUM , HYPER era ... but it is year 2025 now . More offensively speaking , it could be rather late to make up your mind for production like this . Still enough for a idol-born to impress his followers ?
The middle part of this BUBBLEGUM-oriented is really sluggish , some DANCEPUNK , NOISEPOP drums can always fill up the tension in a hyperpop stereotype

well , better than I expected when I saw this ... Man is just practicing his Jazz licks

this compilation EP just went off the way , took some easy-listening genres and proven-successful chords progression , but the outcome was so messy

'everything is romantic' X 'Tokyo Calling'

almost the same drum pattern with '신호등STOPLIGHT' , still happy to see SUMIN collab again after her prod. in <BUT FOR NOW LEAVE ME ALONE>

wonder what the YG producers could produce without SAMPLE PACKS

PRANK , you should be charged for making me listen to this on the front page of new releases ...

Nazar - Demilitarize

not really , the mixing balance and bus loudness were not executed properly , kind of a drawback to the sound-design

TEN - Humanity

the first two sounds even more Skrillex-referencial ... than his Korean EP , if you had impression of <Quest For Fire> you gon' understand .

Ö - Hypernormality

Secret Garden > 85

JUSTB - JUST ODD

the only flaw : tracks 3 sounds directly taken from tonser , the song was not mixed afterwards , the loudness and stereo panning was inconsistent with adjacent ones

陶喆 [David Tao] - STUPID POP SONGS

SUPER MAC RayZhang Songs?
//
donnot ever deify your legends ...
//
David Tao is a legend for his contribution to Mandarin Pop Music Market , he also has a long-time cultivation in Soul , Blues music . But these may not show out in the low-quality pop songs . The arrangement of these pop songs , some are even brut and highly MIDI-like ,sounded drastically different from nowadays more-popular alternative R&B , as the latter absorbed and evolved a lot from electronic-music production . The ... read more

inconsistency kills K-IDOL album , they always struggle to keep a concept or element till the end

2hollis - star

this musicality has nothing related , even with his former self . filled with beginner patterns and brut EDM buildup clips

DJ小女孩 - 头7 (Head 7)

at least these are tracks ...
//being compared with his last trilogy-project , this one is much more conceptional and consistent , but still not enough to be considered good . My point is , good things always be rare , however the bizzare-st could never be the best . I rate his projects low exactly because I know how to produce those things , the take-away samples and overdriven sounds are really beginners-can-make DAW technics . Even those SOPHIE and arca did before , could not be as same ... read more

aya - hexed!

starters good , for a deconstructed club project . as a possible transition the second half sounds tediously meaningless

Ellise - PRETTY EVIL

sounds just like a KPOP-wanna-buy demos collection 2025

Yetsuby - 4EVA

the IDM features/characteristics are gone , and Yetsuby tried to just make a dance playlist

On IVE - IVE EMPATHY
"exactly in the opposite way , I listen to K and J alot , and K Idol Music is undoubtedly a big part of K-Pop , but it still cannot represent all of K-Pop . I am always trying to explain this phenomenon . Plus , I am really looking forward to the KMA(Korean Music Awards) several days after . And similarites are not samples , I make sounds (probably not music) and music production analysis videos . From the perspective of a creator , I really do not like people producing in this way"
On IVE - IVE EMPATHY
"I choose Fall Out Boy as the reference , because it is more popular and more likely to be listened and remembered by people these days . So 'ATTITUDE' could take over the place with this motif ? Like what happened before ? That's the point ! Plagirism is not to be easily defined , but if all listeners dare not to stand against these _songmakers_ with the method , there would be nothing new with the songs . As a listener , I can only lower my marks for the reason , and this showed my ATTITUDE"
On IVE - IVE EMPATHY
"I absolutely know there would be more 'previous' examples , by the way this is not what 'sampling' is about, just similarities . The point is that this method of production should not be acceptable , no matter who else does this I treat it with the same idea , nothing's wrong with the group herselves ."
On Ethel Cain - Perverts
"I didnot give a lowest mark because there was still some 'music parts' in it , but it is obviously impossible to spend an hour in life to figure out all those about . I just felt nothing about those so called experimental"

On jackzebra - 王中王 [King of Kings]
"some guys out here in China are trying to interpret and transcript music-critics-language , like from ROLLINGSTONE , PITCHFORK , NME . and this just sounds like something they would recommend to the listeners here . plus: I really donnot like the #Rage #pluggnb those sub-genre culture , I am not into it , please forgive me for my opinion"
