ROSALÍA - LUX
100

This one got me to tear up a few times. It is a really strong and potent album. There are a few songs that weren't for me, but overall, this album just has that divine touch.

[update: 90 -> 100
after like 2 weeks of listening, this album has changed for me. It’s genuinely such an amazing and impactful piece of spiritual art. It has helped me process a lot of thoughts I had on faith alongside with my friend’s help.]

ROSALÍA - Berghain

Generational first single. Jesus literally

Ethel Cain - Perverts
100

She actually did it again. I make ambient drone music myself and to hear how amazingly good this album is.... it's just insane.

JPEGMAFIA - I LAY DOWN MY LIFE FOR YOU

i scream this in the mirror before i interact with anyone and SIN MIEDO

yeah that's it

November Day - Dune [EP]
85

returned and like this a lot more now.

75 -> 85

羊文学 [Hitsujibungaku] - 12 hugs (like butterflies)
75

I think this album is amazing for the first half. In my opinion, it begins to fall flat towards the end. Not to say that the songs at the end are bad because they are great. But I believe they all occupy the same kinda feel and sound and aren't really as unique as the first half is. It's still a great album and I love all the songs, but it's my little nitpick.

Quedronol - Fioritura
95

i am so glad to be apart of this music scene. There is so much amazing music and so much amazing people! If I never took the random chance to listen to a random floating house, i never would've discovered the scene at all. I haven't felt this way about an album since I listened to IDMTHY or 映帶する煙. It may have been due to other personal circumstances before but this album had me feeling really emotional. I thought I knew what my aoty was but fuck this makes it so much harder to decide. ... read more

Phixel - IN DUST AND ROT
85

wow tooo good. just everything here is amazing. I heavily relate to a lot of the themes here so my opinion may be biased but whatever...

favs are: temperance, hospital song, pushed to shore, these walls are my arms, dog, and long road nowhere

Braden Ross - digilogue
90

I thought the bangers for this year were over but holy shit, braden ross coming in clutch right here. Digilogue is amazing. The amount of clearly seen effort he puts into the guitar riffs just astounds me. I even got heavily inspired and made my first produced track with guitar in it. He clearly put a lot of effort in to show that he isn't just some brakence clone, he actually is here to stay and for the better.

favs are zombie, break!, unalive, reminiscence, discarded, and credits.

Quadeca - SCRAPYARD III
90

bro can't help but drop peak. Easier is so amazing and honestly the sleeper hit. We all knew Guess Who would go crazy and we were right. The second verse hits so hard.

Quedronol - Sudden death
90

Everything here is amazing. The skill here lies within the amazing production. The vocals are top notch as well. It is an all around banger and deserves to be blasted in a car at midnight.

thatcherblackwood - front and center

a step down but still a phenomenal song. just a little too safe tbh

thatcherblackwood - bleith

how is he this good

Patrick O'neill - Plunge

the hype is real

quannnic - Stepdream
95

wow Quannnic, it's too good. Kinda sad I released a song the same day as this. There's no way I'm getting any attention when this exists lmao.

thatcherblackwood - laurel
100

actually changed the way i view music and how i produce. every time I lose motivation in my music, i return to this song and it rejuvenates me.

Quadeca - SCRAPYARD II
90

He actually did it better..... SCRAPYARD II proves to be a much better and more consistent pack than the first. Although, I eventually came around to the first pack's songs, on first listen, these songs are so much better. The only thing I have against this pack is that he showed legit every song before the official release. We had the Under My Skin twitter tease forever ago, the Dustcutter drop on vinyl, and the music video for I Make It Look Effortless days ago. This all just seems ... read more

Poppy - Zig

Just listened on my vinyl and it was honestly just alright. There were a few songs that were amazing, but there were a few I didn't really like, and just a few in the middle. It's not like the songs I didn't like were bad. Poppy is an amazing musician, but they just weren't for me. The production throughout this album was amazing though, I must clarify. I don't think it's Poppy's best, but it is far from her worst. I'm definitely excited to see what she does next.

Favorites: Church Outfit, ... read more

Jane Remover - Census Designated

actually just speechless. I couldn't give a review even if I wanted to. You just have to listen for yourself.

Corefish - KITE

this guy seems fishy.....

"Thank you so much for the review!! It means a lot to me, especially with how in depth you went! I truly appreciate this more than you know. I loved hearing your thoughts and critiques. Listening to what you liked... I have a lot more in store. Thank you again! all love :3"
On Girlwithoutarms's review of Expathmia - SCRATCH OUT MY EYES
"thank you queen!! tbh my least favorite is our song too. 😭 and i still really like it, that’s why i put it on the EP. but since it is the oldest song, I still hadn’t refined my production by then. Hell that was one of the first times I ever did drums and bass myself. i still love it and think it’s perfect for what I was going for. But one of my only regrets from this EP is being unable to make our song a true stand out. We gotta do another song together I swear because we have both leveled up significantly in production skill. Love you girl, thanks again for the review! :3"
