I'm partial to chill relaxing music like this sometimes, I'm not sure if my first real listen being in terrible earphones out of a terrible speaker was enhancing or a detriment tbh and that's kind of interesting when you try to determine the quality. Regardless the tracks that were a bit less ambient were certainly my favorite but I was vibing enough throughout.

im not sure this specific genre is for me despite enjoying some music that is probably adjacent, though I think some of the best tracks here could be better if under specific influences or modifiers which I was unfortunately very sober. quite repetitive and just annoying distorted music in a lot of places, but still i didnt mind most of the tracks. vocals pretty irrelevant generally except the closing ... read more
