akio and bo en being lil rays of sunshine with this one ^^ kinda sad its so short

There has never been a better time to be a Dayglow fan.

In this EP colourfully titled Superbloom - which Struble has tacked onto the end of his Eponymous album as a sort of Deluxe reissue - we see him take his genius return-to-form to new heights by taking the step out the comfort zone and experimenting. He's executing his sound so effectively too, "Little Alien Spacemen" he has managed to extract nostalgia value (for a long-time Dayglow fan as myself) out of an album made to ... read more

#willpower is the album equivalent of going to the club with your dorky coworkers and even though they kinda make you cringe every now and then they're actually pretty good fun and now how to party... for the first like 6 tracks. 20 minutes pass and now you wanna go home and kick the chair from the secondhand embarrassment.

I came into this thinking it was going to be super delusional pop music like Corey Feldman, ESPECIALLY because of that album cover and stylisation (I only bothered to ... read more

The production is definitely in a level of ubiquity and vibes no hip-hop album can claim to quite replicate, but Snoop Dogg, to me at least comes across as a flanderisation of a hip-hop figure, especially with the obnoxious skits that just kinda make me eyeroll - maybe his character as just worn tired to me after all these years. but yeah, still very solid, very fun!

"Get a Job" is the feeling you get when you look at the windows XP background... I listen to it whenever I'm going on a road trip.

I found Ellery Smith back in 2022 because I was looking online to see if anyone made an orchestral version of "Hawaii Part II", which he did. He made a couple and they're all pretty good, I recommend them if you're a fan of Tally Hall and they're on his YouTube channel. Anyways, I just looked around and found this album and ... read more

Undeniably listenable and sometimes fun but yeah kinda unmemorable tbh

Incredible project. the album cover explains it perfectly as a sort of dreamy electro-pop with this vibe of floating in space. It's got so many damn catchy and memorable verses and choruses, which is an impressive feat for a dreamy record as often you end up trading memorability of single moments for vibes. I have that video of the neco arc models doing the macarena when I listen to Curl, which funnily enough also is a good representation of what "Finite form" feels like.

While ... read more

Unless you know me better than I do myself you probably wouldnt understand quite why this out of so many other projects in the genres breadth hit me as hard as it did when I heard it in 2021.

A master class in hiphop eclecticism whilst being a seemingly never ending tidal charge of heavy hitting rap in a style that is so energetic and honest and refreshing for 2025. I must respect that JPEGMAFIA is an obscenely talented producer and this albeit massive undertaking of an album has been executed brilliantly even if imperfectly.

Ahh yes. Breakcore. Dance music for people who don't dance, don't go outside and have multiple diagnosed and undiagnosed mentally illness. I am not going to refer to the egregious name of this particular variation of the genre because firstly ew and secondly it causes a lot of misunderstanding over what *it* is.

It's a satirisation of otaku internet culture and in many cases it's literally just about the juxtaposition of "cute anime voices" over the most violent ... read more

Living proof that weird is good
btw the drums on igor's theme need to be studeid

This record is a part of me and my psyche in ways I cannot explain. It calms me and focuses me, takes me away from my worries and soothes me right to sleep with the beautiful gentle Brasilian Portuguese singing of Toco. It is lively and diverse yet slow and on the ball.

This music is my way of reminding myself how beautiful the feeling of being alive is and I will never forget that feeling.

No point in rating this but it sounds like rapidly skipping through "Angelic 2 the Core" on a flac player or smth

Most mature production, most mature songwriting, a turning out song that doesn't suck and a much better-adjusted use of melodrama to articulate real emotion, like in "Maybe Man" and "2085" which are both very powerful and emotionally impactful songs on their own right.

In that vein, "2085" is a perhaps the first admission of self-awareness that AJR as a group have ever published, awareness of the triviality of dwelling over the feeling of never growing up and ... read more

I see the vision, I hear the improvement and maturity and I wouldn't dare deny the newfound musicality Tyler takes on with Wolf but I just don't like how it sounds at all I'm sorry.

Hooded Sweatshirt.

Found myself in the orbit of London at night recently, an environment in which these genres and influences were born to be listened in and yeah that was awesome to listen to again since 2021.

Generally speaking, very high quality DnB/garage production with PinkPantheress' signature beautiful voice on top. Wherever the production quality drops slightly - pretty much the most obvious example being Nineteen, which a Toco sample i was emotionally not prepared for - the lyrical quality makes ... read more

It's all-over-the-place at times and a little jarring to listen to but it's all what makes Tally Hall's debut album an absolute thrill to listen to and I'm not that sure if I'd have it any other way. It's so damn fun to hear their theatric style over so many different types of songs and the whole time it is begging you not to take it seriously. For that reason, sometimes it gets a little too weird even for my taste.

With that being said I am a devout lover of ... read more

This did, most certainly, scare the hoes.

Y'all did we listen to the same album? This was kinda awful. In the first half it feels as though they couldn't decide whether to lean fully into the lofi sound. It was incredibly disjointed, the nasal inflections one of the rappers on here pull off with the laughably shitass recording quality makes this feeling like a Yuno Miles project but if he tried hard.

I experienced lyrical dejavu across this record but with all of the sheer noise ... read more

Actually pretty decent musical experience big up the Francis
