Sega Bodega - Romeo
90

Really great album. Immensely satisfying and has a lot of different types of songs, and surprisingly has a lot of emotion packed into it. Those who are a fan of Trinity by Eartheater will also be a fan of this album, they share a lot of similarities.
TOP 3 SONGS: Um Um, Luci, Effeminacy

Amnesia Scanner & Freeka Tet - STROBE.RIP
75

Incredibly wonky and warpy stuff.
TOP 3 SONGS: Clown, Ledge, Giggle

Donna Missal - Revel
79

It's a really well put together synth pop album. Her vocals are amazing.
TOP 3 SONGS: Flicker, I Saw God, God Complex

Will Wiesenfeld - Bee and PuppyCat (Soundtrack from the Netflix Series) Vol. 1
77

I already love this show and I already love Baths so it comes together very nicely for me. I typically don't care as much for ambient stuff (which is why this ranking is not higher) but it was still really nice.
TOP 3 SONGS: What's Your Favorite Color?, Space Lullaby, Attack And Counterattack

Jackie Extreme - ONYX
83

This album is nuts. Both in length (23 songs) and style (chaotic as hell) and I'm living for it. It has a handful of absolutely fantastic songs but also with the fact that there's 23 means there's also some I just don't really care about at all, which drags it down a bit. JACKIE EXTREME draws a lot of influence from Crystal Castles (which is evident as she's sampled them in the past) and adjacent witch house sounds, while having hyperpop style vocals, and the combination of the two makes an ... read more

Gorillaz - Cracker Island
86

My favourite Gorillaz songs are the more chill pop-adjacent ones, often with a melancholic vibe, such as the ones found on "The Now Now" and this album matches stylistically with that one closer than any of their other work so naturally it's become one of my favourites.
TOP 3 SONGS: Skinny Ape, The Tired Influencer, Possession Island

Slow Magic - Forgotten Feels
87

It's got a really warm inviting feeling, much akin to a Porter Robinson record. It's definitely one of my favourite albums of the year.
TOP 3 SONGS: Human Nature, Emotions, Fade Out

Murlo - Puckle
65

It has a lot of really interesting sounds but I feel like it stays in it's lane a bit too much for the most part which drags it down a bit for me. I wish the progression within each song was more interesting, but that might just be a me thing. It was still a pretty good listen
TOP 3 SONGS: Calcium, Gobsmack, Cat Got Your Tongue

Lorn - The Maze to Nowhere
88

Really truly harrowing music. Lorn manages to convey a dystopian nightmare exceptionally well.
TOP 3 SONGS: Acid Rain, Negative Jumpsuit, Entangled

Grimes - Art Angels
92

Say what you want about grimes and everything she's done now, but this album is still an absolutely great collection of electro pop songs.
TOP 3 SONGS: Venus Fly, Kill V Maim, Butterfly

yeule - Glitch Princess
93

yeule's sophomore album is slightly worse than her first album, but when her first album is my most played album of all time, "slightly worse" actually means "incredibly phenomenal"
TOP 3 SONGS: Bites On My Neck, Too Dead Inside, Mandy

Gupi - None
93

I get that it's a little bit one note but not every album needs to have a super cohesive crazy unique story to tell, sometimes you just need to have bangers for the sake of having bangers and personally I think this album accomplishes that exceptionally well.
TOP 3 SONGS: Paradise, None, Thos Moser

Kavinsky - Reborn
90

A lot of people I know don't really care for this album but honestly, I like it better than outrun. It's a bit more chiller than Kavinsky's typical work for sure.
TOP 3 SONGS: Plasma, Renegade, Outsider

Various Artists - PC Music, Vol. 1
91

The second best bubblegum bass album out there, only losing to SOPHIE's.
TOP 3 SONGS: Beautiful, Attachment, Laplander

92

Really summery synth pop. All the songs flow really well into each other and honestly I think this is handily ionna lee's best album. It took me a couple listens to truly understand but once I did understand I fell in love.
TOP 3 SONGS: shadowshow, fountain, vista

Lorn - Vessel
92

Anvil undeniably carries this album on its back but it's still a really great listen all the way through despite the short length.
TOP 3 SONGS: Anvil, Mount Kwaku, Broken Mantra

Rone - Mirapolis
95

Bye Bye Macadam may be Rone's best song but this is his most overall great album for me. It's has both really exciting pumped up big buildup tracks and some really haunting shit, and neither of them feel out of place as they all feel wrapped in this sort of mysteriousness.
TOP 3 SONGS: Down For The Cause, Wave, Mirapolis

Cuushe - Butterfly Case
93

Incredibly pretty, and some of the warmest dream pop out there.
TOP 3 SONGS: I Love You, Butterfly, Twilight

SONOIO - Fine
93

Honestly this album took me a couple streams to really be able to get into but once I did nearly every track gave me something.
TOP 3 SONGS: Thanks For Calling, Pieces, Under The Sea

Nosaj Thing - Drift
96

I adore this album and I personally think it's Nosaj's best work. This sort of Lo-fi electronic can often lead to a lot of really boring tracks but not only do I find basically every single one on this album interesting and captivating, they all flow together incredibly well.
TOP 3 SONGS: Fog, Caves, 1685/Bach

On Sega Bodega - Dennis
"Yeah exactly. In Sega's music, he tends to embrace a really feminine side of being a man through both the production and the lyrics, which is much more typical of LGBT artists since this music and the themes tends to habit a more gender fluid space associated with the LGBT (part of the reason why I like it cause I'm gay lol). Ultimately to me it doesn't really matter if he is straight or not, the music is incredible, it was just kind of surprising lmaooo"
On BaddieBaphomet's review of SOPHIE - OIL OF EVERY PEARL'S UN-INSIDES
"no problem and ofc yeah, she was one of the first queer people that I really looked up to and made me feel comfy in my own body as a queer person so it hit really hard but I take solace in the fact that I am not the only one she impacted in that way with her work"
On BaddieBaphomet's review of SOPHIE - OIL OF EVERY PEARL'S UN-INSIDES
"god when you talked about the day sophie died it brought me right back to that too cause that was also the very first thing I saw when I woke up. I remember back then it was the height of covid so I was sleeping in absurdly late so I woke up just to go to the washroom and checked my phone and that was the first thing I saw and I was so shocked to the core that I could not fall back to sleep whatsoever. Also glad you mentioned Um Um as that has become one of my fav songs of all time and is one of the only ones that is able to consistently make me tear up LOL. Also want to mention Lost Everything by A.G. Cook & EasyFun (and Remi Wolf on vocals) off of their latest album cause that was also dedicated to her, it's another one that really hits me to the core. Really loved this writeup thank you a ton, from one queer person to another <3"
