GIMS - GARANTIE
86

The chorus is fun and catchy, and the feature is actually quite good here, and it’s overall just another good GIMS track.

GIMS - BLOQUÉ
64

Thing that just kinda exists type beat

GIMS - MAL AMOR
65

Slightly more creative than the average GIMS song, but it’s nothing too crazy or shocking.

GIMS - Bonbon
59

You really can’t get simpler and less creative than this, can you?

GIMS - INCOGNITO
70

You can’t really get any simpler, but it’s still good overall, just uninnovative and doesn’t try anything too crazy.

GIMS - T’avais Raison
62

Quite standard as far as a GIMS collab tends to be, but it’s still a decent and overall polished track that’s pretty decent in the ways you’d come to expect from GIMS.

GIMS - Monica
61

Sounds the same as half of GIMS‘s other songs, but the man has finally discovered a tape stop plugin after however many years, so that’s a plus.

GIMS - SPA
84

A pretty uninnovative song, but a very fun one as well.

GIMS - OVERTON
57

A lot of GIMS‘s stuff sound the same, but this is really boring even for his standards. The beat‘s cool though.

spacer - strata
75

Thanks @melancholik for the rec

This album may not push any boundaries, but I do still enjoy it quite a lot. If this album has some more elements in it, it'd be much more worthwhile, but it's a little bare bones as is.

---Individual ratings---

rutyna - 72/100 - A very weird track that I can't understand but it's pretty cool and relaxed minus that weird distorted windy noise.
ostatnie slowa - 78/100 - A nice and serene track that does have some interesting and unnerving ... read more

Scotty The Kitty - Spigots for hot and cold
80

Again, another weird instrumental electronic song that's pretty cool, but is somewhat uneventful. This song, unlike milk, goes for a more glitchy approach and also has a prominent electric guitar that helps to carry the beat of the song. Overall pretty nice track.

Scotty The Kitty - Milk
78

A pretty interesting song that, even though it doesn't have any crazy drop or anything, is still cool.

---Individual ratings---

Milk - 78//100 - The percussion is pretty cool and interesting. I don't have much else to say, it's just a cool song, maybe a little underwhelming if anything,
Postlude to Milk - 70/100 - No clue what this is supposed to be but it's kinda just the same thing, only more... uhh... less interesting?

Scotty The Kitty - After and away
83

This needs a remaster in my opinion, since the elements are kinda jarring in contrast with each other, but honestly I like the vibe this song is going for. I couldn't tell you what the aforementioned vibe is, but it's cool. Has a nice melody too, although I think you need to find a different crash cymbal.

Converge - Hum of Hurt
86

The non-screaming vocal work here is pretty bad, as it sounds pretty whiny, but the rest of the song is cool, especially the drumming.

Arrows - Moths
70

I don't really know what I just listened to, but for Arrows' standards, it was great. A lot more polished and civilized than his other stuff.

jaydes - Yen
36

I really don't know what to make of this album. It's honestly just really subpar slacker rock with some horrible production, and it feels like every element needs work, but if this guy keeps trying he could get somewhere.

RILLL - Backrooms Level 0 Ambience
50

I don't know what to say, it's basically just a buzzing noise.

infinitesimal - grid
79

Despite not really being a huge fan of drone, I really liked the production and execution on this EP, and I'd like to thank @aelz for inviting me to be a part of this project! Definitely sounds like what the cover art and title would lead you to think it'd be.

---Individual ratings---

grid - 78/100 - A simple but suspenseful drone track that could use a remaster but is good as is nonetheless.
the whistle - 79/100 - A nice variance of sounds here that paints a cool picture.
static ... read more

Shinedown - Outlaw
88

I've said it before and I'll say it again, I'm not a fan of Shinedown's ballads, but this one's got some heavier elements going for it, so that's a plus.

Kobaryo - HiTNEX ViRTUAL SHiFTERZ
100

HiTNEX ViRTUAL SHiFTERZ packs a hell of a punch for being only 21 minutes long. I love both metalcore and uptempo, and seeing those genres being blended in this album means I'm bound to love it, and, well, I do. This album has unmatched energy and the high tempos and aggressive riffs make it a riveting project to listen to.
