Porter Robinson is able to achieve something so special on this album. Porter, a renowned musician known throughout the EDM scene and electronic music in general, put out Nurture on April 23, 2021, after 7 years of art block - also notably a time of great distraught among many people across the globe due to the COVID pandemic. He displays his vulnerability as much as you possibly publicly could, yet clouds his own vulnerability through a higher-pitched, more feminine voice. He creates a green, ... read more
We have reached a point in humanity where the tides are changing and either two of things will occur - the fall of the capitalist regimes across the globe or the downfall of humanity itself. We have fought imperialist wars for decades in the hope of dividing the spoils among other similar-minded nations. A great question comes upon us: Are we to do anything and watch the downfall of humanity and allow our nations to continue killing women and children in the great dream of exploiting workers ... read more
You know what, we’re having a terrible start to 2026, so this is something nice to help out the transition into the new year. We have some bullshit going on like Greenland, ICE, global tensions on the rise, Venezuela, but whatever - we got Rocky. Shit has been edged for like, what? 2–3 years now? Haha, it’s a good album though. Was it worth the year-on-year-long wait? I’m not too sure yet, give it some time.
Some batshit insane production on these tracks; we had shit ... read more
Another album that, once again, changed my view on music. As long as you're honest in your music, who can say that you should've never put it out there? Music can sound any way you want it to and still reach somebody - not to say this album sounds bad, but to make a point out of the fact that not everybody will find appeal in the lo-fi quality of this album. Elliot Smith, a tortured soul, bleeds his heart out on the page, writing in his own blood. He has a knack for it, and it's ... read more
I like to imagine myself sitting in a chair with my back turned to the wall while Cameron plays away on the piano. It feels too personal, It sounds like I shouldn't be listening, but I indulge. When I turn this album on, I feel like I'm listening to the inner ramblings of Cameron's mind, throwing references left and right that he'd only get - but, in its own way, makes it inviting to attach your own memories and feelings to the project. We unite in shared pain, even if ... read more
Yeah, I like boys kissing boys - and I also like this album. Dipping my toes into the pool of midwest emo, I got my feet wet once I jumped into this. There's a certain itch that I've wanted to be scratched ever since I started listening to midwest emo, and this-insanely-long-album-name-that-I-won't-type-out scratched it pretty damn well. It was pretty hard to get used to Tim's voice for a bit, but I quickly adjusted. So much energy, so much fun, I'm excited to see what ... read more
