Pinned Review

Mac Miller - Faces
100

Some albums feel like they were never meant to be heard by anyone else. Faces is one of those albums.

It doesn’t just play—it confronts you, reflects you, and sometimes even unsettles you in ways that are hard to return to.

Before anything else, I have to talk about Mac Miller as an artist. If there’s one artist who completely won me over purely through musicality, it’s him. Few artists feel as deeply connected to their music as he did. You hear it across his entire ... read more

William Basinski - The Disintegration Loops
100

Some albums don’t just exist—they stay with you in ways you can’t fully explain. Sometimes, they even become meditation, relief, or a form of therapy. The Disintegration Loops by William Basinski is one of those albums.

Originally created when Basinski was digitizing old tape loops, the music began to literally fall apart as it was being transferred. What you hear on this record isn’t just composition—it’s decay captured in real time. Fragments of melody ... read more

Wesley Joseph - Forever Ends Someday
80

I’ve known Wesley Joseph since his Ultramarine EP, which already left a strong impression on me. A couple of those tracks have stayed in my rotation for a long time, so I came into this debut album with real expectations. I don’t usually keep up closely with 2026 releases, but this was one of those exceptions where I wanted to stay in touch and see how an artist I already trusted would expand into a full project.

What I found was an album that doesn’t reveal itself instantly, ... read more

The Weeknd - Trilogy
90

I spent hours with Trilogy. Not casually, but really sitting with it — going back to certain moments, changing my mind, getting pulled in again, and at times getting genuinely frustrated with what I was hearing.

That tension is exactly what defines this project.

Because what makes The Weeknd so interesting here isn’t just the sound or the atmosphere, but the character he builds across these three tapes. It’s a character that becomes increasingly self-aware, increasingly ... read more

Massive Attack - Heligoland
85

Heligoland is Massive Attack’s fifth studio album, arriving seven years after 100th Window and marking another evolution in their sound. By this point, the band lineup had shifted slightly, with Robert “3D” Del Naja and Grant “Daddy G” Marshall still leading the creative direction, but with less input from Andrew Vowles (Mushroom), who had left after Mezzanine. That absence, combined with the long gap between releases, meant the album was approached with fresh ... read more

Massive Attack - 100th Window
80

100th Window is Massive Attack’s fourth studio album, and coming to it after Mezzanine, you can immediately hear how the band’s approach has shifted. With Andrew Vowles (Mushroom) no longer part of the lineup, Robert “3D” Del Naja is left to steer the project alongside Grant “Daddy G” Marshall, and the result is a much more electronic, precise, and minimal sound. For me, Massive Attack remains one of the best trip-hop bands out there, and this album shows how ... read more

About

"If you had to paint the gutter, which color would you choose?"

“Said the patron to the painter, the painter said, "The blues"
Do you act off intuition or languish and peruse?
More like tap into tradition from the angle of my mood
He looked back at his canvas while strangling a tube
A master of the palette, all sanguine and cool
The music mostly jazz, the jazz mostly old
Punctured by some punk and some old smoky soul”

Just a collection of only my favorites which i update with every listen! 🎶
