The perfect album to listen to when it's cloudy, gloomy and grey out. Or when it's the dead of night and fresh snow has just fallen. Dummy feels like Silent Hill in auditory form, in fact I can just see and hear how this album inspired Team Silent. Beautifully depressing.

The deluxe version of Melt My Eyez See Your Future is absolutely incredible. The live jazz versions of the songs sound amazing, I hope to see Denzel produce a jazzy (bebop) influenced album in the future.

Mr. Curry's Mr. Morale and the Big Steppers. There are some great tracks here, I love the energy that Denzel brings. Can't believe I didn't check out this album sooner considering how much I bumped to Walkin when it came out.

WOW. This album is so beautifully produced, and those vocals man, so dreamy and alluring, I'm just absolutely hooked. It sounds so good I'm just addicted to listening to Imaginal Disk, I've been playing it non-stop for the past two weeks since I initially listened. I'm genuinely impressed since I don't listen to much synth-pop, I'm honestly so glad I took a chance with Magdalena Bay, I'm eager to listen to their future projects.

HOLY SMOKES. This is Daft Punk's magnum opus, it's so beautifully produced, and the various features are just incredible. A brilliant send off album from the duo, although I'm sad they never toured this album, it would've been amazing to hear this live.
NO SKIPS <3 ty daft punk for everything
One of those albums where you pick up on something new after every listen, I can definitely see myself coming back to this one for years to come and liking more and more with each listen. The hip-hop duo spit some absolute bars on this LP, and the features and production are downright phenomenal. I'll have to go back and listen to some of their previous albums for sure.

I absolutely adore MF DOOM's supervillain persona, the comic book samples are great and do a wonderful job of weaving a story throughout. Most of the skits are hilarious, in fact these have got to be some of my favorite skits ever to be included on an album. Top it off with some banger tracks and raw rapping, MM..FOOD is an absolute feast for the ears that I'll be returning to for years.

RICH BRIAN comes back swinging with buttery smooth transitions and some nasty beats in what I'd say is his best album yet. There are some great features on this as well, and I've gotta say it's good to have my goat back after 5-6 years of no music (honestly can't believe it's been that long).

there are some great tracks on here, however I can't help but feel disappointed in content and length of this album, especially after coming from the high bar Joji set with Nectar. still not a bad album to throw on during a night time drive.
