๐Ÿ”ด SUBLIMINAL
๐ŸŸข The other 5 tracks

"What would a combination of Au5 and Sullivan King sound like?" is a question I have never asked, but for which I just got the answer. This is not only true for the sound design in this EP, but also the quality. I have never heard an EP that more violently jostles itself between absolute fire and dumpster fire, between sick drops and nauseating ones. Ultimately, the good barely wins out, but many of these tracks are so polarizing that it's hard to see myself returning to this project. I've never been so strongly impressed and disappointed at the same time. Biggest head-scratcher of the year so far, but it gets points for being creative, dynamic, and occasionally dazzling.

Had some nice ambience outside the drops, and first drop was okay. But it really did not need to go into quarter-time, nor did I feel the sluggish SFX patterns justified it. Maybe I’m missing something obvious though, idk. ๐Ÿคท‍โ™‚๏ธ
