Øscillation

This was a pretty big disappointment compared to 羽川 翼 [ hanekawa ]. Where that album was atmospheric and poetic, this one is more straightforward both instrumentally and vocally and is a lot more tuned to trap. Luna and A Mother's Lullaby standout as tracks that bring back the feel of Airospace's more emo-informed releases, while Sweater sticks out as a particularly pointless excursion into brag rap.

The production is still pretty great, thanks to the great beatwork from JAMES, but the songs on here just aren't all that interesting. I hope Airo's next album doesn't continue down the trap path, or that it at least does a better job of it.
