Bladee's most sonically consistent project to date. Exeter just has such a unique sound, a lot of slightly detuned and harmonized synths and futuristic vocal production. Although the songs are rather impressionistic I think nothing overstays it's welcome. Bladee's warbly autocrooning actually fits really well over these beats.

Best Tracks:
Wonderland, Merry-Go-Round, Every Moment Special, Dna Rain, Lovestory, Imaginary

Worst Tracks:
Mirror

Drain Gang come through with one of their most coherent and trimmed down projects to date.

Best Tracks:
You Lose, 1:1, Victim, The Void, Western Union, Acid Rain

Worst Tracks:
Waterfall

OMG It's future emo it's future emo and i got to see it fucking early! I could honestly talk forever about this record but the short impressionistic tracks on e are perfect for the ketamine trip aesthetic. AAA Powerlines and Don't Ask could've used a bit more development but still this album is just so beautiful. Probably top 3 most revisited albums of 2019

Best Tracks:
Peroxide, Fragile, CC, Calcium, Sugar and Deisel, Security, TIme, Blue Eyes

Worst Tracks:
Don't Ask

The textures of this album felt like they were calmly burrowing into my skull while listening. Fantastic record as expected from Nicolas Jaar.

Best Tracks:
Vanish, Menyside, Cenizas, Gocce, Xerox, Faith Made of Silk, , Hello Chain
