Pinned Review
the immense attention to detail jane has placed within the 'venturing' world never ceases to impress me. it's almost surreal having followed the venturing project for this long to hear jane tackle this sound in such beautiful quality.
whatever musical world building she has done previously through the old venturing singles-- or even frailty, has been blown out of the water by this project. venturing's previous muffled hazes of dispiriting melodies has been cracked in two to reveal some of the ... read more

Up and coming West-London supergroup "Big Buddies" reveal their debut project "Buddies In Paris", filled with smooth rhymes, silky beats and thick accents.
Executive produced by Alexander G, and rapped by rotating cyphers consisting of Jet, Kavo, D'Aygo and Maana, the group already manages to hold a distinctly unique low-profile but pristinely produced and mixed sound.
The group manages to instantly strike a balance of well written verses with dripping charisma, with Maana ... read more
This album pretty much encompasses my thoughts on future and confirmed everything I was expecting to get into with this album. Boring and uninspired production? AI generated bland ass future bars? Shithouse features? And some of the worst vocal performances this year? YOU GET IT ALL!
Just like the rest of future's career, I NEVER LIKED YOU is another big disappointment! The saddest thing is too, the album actually starts pretty great and holds a fine pace, the first 3 tracks actually being ... read more
While "RAMONA PARK BROKE MY HEART" is obviously not as technically proficient or impressive as the likes of "BIG FISH THEORY", what isn’t there in mind blowing production and genius level pen is Vince and his team's ability to create an atmosphere I haven't felt from any other release this year so far.
Silky smooth beats paired with Vince's slick carefree deliveries give the album a strong pace and a general calming demeaner that makes it accessible while still being ... read more
EXOCIETY's 2021 run was really disappointing and was definitely worrying of the direction them, as a label, were taking.
Kill Bill dropped "Snowglobe Theory" a 12-track hip-hop LP that ended up sounding like the most mundane answer to the question of "What happens when we mix his previous two projects, "Ramona" and "Resin"?".
Scuare finally released another album after nearly a decade, and it too, was just ok. It had a few good tracks but once again it ... read more
Every day the underground gets ever closer to "Post Hip-Hop"; and while this record doesn't make as big as a leap as Slauson Malone did with "A Quiet Farwell", "MAN PLAYS THE HORN" certainly makes a large mind fuck statement with its masterful sample flips and avant-garde writing style, successfully pushing forward the envolope in the underground.
But with such a long run time, moments of confusion came up often, the biggest example here being the strange ... read more
