A. G. Cook - 7G
97

one of the mastermind producers behind PC music releases a masterpiece of his own
a. g. cook, the incredible producer behind much of charli xcx's recent out put and other pc music ventures has come out with easily one of the most ambitious projects of this year !! a 7 disc behemoth of an album ! structured through different styles and instruments, i'll just go through each of them and go through my thoughts.

(keep in mind this started as a twitter thread it gets more detailed as it goes on lol ... read more

Crisis Sigil - crisis sigil
90

too fuckin good to be 6 minutes long. just a brief set of grindcore bangers with great emotional lyrics. such a natural side project coming from rook tbh, and i absolutely love it.

Various Artists - Let It Radicalize You
87

eclectic, but still manages to sound so unified. speak and spell and the amazing artists signed to them have created a wonderful project that brings out the best in their varied styles, and uses their platform to support an important cause. its inspiring to see really, in response to all that has happened, and i think more labels should come together and create projects like this one. BLM. ACAB.

공중도둑 [Mid-Air Thief] - 무너지기 [Crumbling]
100

breathtaking

a gorgeous display of how far you can get with a unique sonic palette and a nice pristine sound in general. this album genuinely took my breath away, with it's sprawling flitting synth full compositions that scratch such a particular itch for me. it's one of those rare things where i listen and immediately latch on to the sound of, in a way that makes it feel like it was made for me. an atmospheric, unique, beautiful, warm listen, front to back. what more do you need ? ... read more

Jay Electronica - A Written Testimony
30

amidst jay electronica hype of yesterday, i decided to listen to his ep Act 1, and i was pretty indifferent overall. interesting idea instrumentally but didn't really get the hype. i went into this hoping the best parts of the ep were pushed and that there would be a major improvement on all fronts. that i would hear what's so special about jay electronica in this.

sadly that is not the case.

lots of the mixing and mastering sounds bad to me, the production is trying sooooo hard to be out ... read more

Hiroshi Mizuno - 25,000 kittens
95

bittersweet.

this made me think about something that's already been on my mind a lot this past year, the cat i've grown up with is getting old. he's been around for as long as i can remember, and is part of the reason i love cats as much as i do. but recently he hasn't been able to jump as well. occasionally he'll try and jump onto the counter and fall. i feel like i can hear his joints when he jumps, a subtle reminder he wont be here forever, and it makes me sad.

this little ep perfectly ... read more

Sewerslvt - Mr. Kill Myself
85

really great song ! effectively dark atmosphere, the drum beat is incredible, cool synths throughout, mix is good, love it ! definitely gonna listen to one of their albums sometime after hearing this.

B. The Leo - B. The Leo's 2020 Experience MEGAMIX
77

very nice mix, I especially liked the section that starts around 5:40 and that last section is straight up gorgeous. while i do think some bits last a tad too long, and i couldn't get into the second section as much as the others, this is very good overall. bops and bangs and baps ! uwu

Edit: nvm it’s really good lol
Old Score: 68

I respect this album a lot for its stylistic choices, the loose concept behind it, and some of ye's best work being here, but I just can't get past some of the lyrical content and too much of this doesn't do much for me to justify the hour run time. I can't help but feel it drags.

to focus on what I like though, what a fucking intro song. an ultimate vibe. chance absolutely kills his verse, the stripped back instrumental is perfect, and it's ... read more

Lightning Bolt - Hypermagic Mountain
100

HOW is it possible that 2 people are creating this much chaotic noise it really is something

anyway this is a banger unlike any other. absolutely ferocious. just unrelenting. this album beat the shit out of me and kept going after I died halfway through Dead Cowboy (maybe the best song on here? couldn't pick)

so yeah, the riffs never fall flat in the slightest, and it keeps up the pummeling noise all the way up till infinity farm, which might be the most relieving, yet entrancing song I've ... read more

100 gecs - 1000 gecs
100

grew on me every listen since the first. this shit is magical. an exploration of abandoned, shit on internet fads and concepts revitalized and brought to light in the name of not caring what anyone thinks of you, and your own forward thinking push. or more so collision. of course, ideas and concepts alone don't get you a 10/10. the hooks and melodies on this are infectious, the instrumentals are energetic; a blast of creativity straight through the skull, and it is endlessly replayable. their ... read more
