Day 625: Nostalgia Critic's The Wall by Rob Scallon & Doug Walker (Album Choice: choob)

I don't care about The Wall. I don't care about Nostalgia Critic. This album thusly is unfunny, tedious and often cringe-y, but I've definitely heard worse. The singing is annoying as fuck but otherwise it's mostly musically competent, probably because it's mostly BASED on an album I find "competent".

If this is intended as a backhanded response to #ChangeTheChannel with such great titles like We Don't Need Victimization that makes it funnier. Same rating tho

Best Track: The SpongeBob theme cover

Day 626: Schism by Le Dom

It shouldn't be hard to find where I've been googling in my search for music that will help my broken ADD-ass brain focus on doing my homework. You know it. It's basic as fuck like me.

Anyways, I don't get this EP. It was catchy and headbumpy at first, then I was annoyed and this is REALLY brief. Meh.

Day 627: Bones by Datach'i

I see I was recommended an album from this dude way back in 2013 by April. Never got to that, but maybe now I will?

This album starts off really strong, then peters off quite a bit in the middle, ending almost as good as the first few tracks. Seeing how this guy is called flashcore I assume this is his most melodic work, but the less melodic tracks aren't doing much for me beyond study music. The whole thing is pretty minimalistic but it shows how much of a difference a simple ass synthline does for my simple ass.

Study. Study. Study. Dexter's Laboratory clip. I still like this way more than the last one.

Day 628: ATAXIA by Rian Treanor

Well, it's better than the last minimalistic electronic EP I listened to, a couple of hours ago. Maintained my interest just a little bit more despite being longer. Not every song is my cup of tea though.

I'm tired and cannot sleep halp

Day 629: Rain Forest by Paul Hardcastle (Album Choice: Josemba)

I can't tell if this stuff reminds me most of vaporwave, 80s era direct-to-VHS informationals (is that even a word) or modern vaporwave offshoots like future funk. This came before all of that except the VHS stuff. It's kitschy, but god I love the vibe and it never stops being groovy save for a briefly annoying midsection in Forest Fire. Good recommendation, and I'm not just saying that to be nice. This totally slaps AND works for homework purposes.

Maybe that latter part is a dumb benchmark to be using. Ah well fuck you. Someone do a search on this thread and see how many times I've said "fuck you".

Best Track: Panic (I hope this guy is cooler than Morrissey)

Day 630: Voyager VII by Cygnus

I saw this guy live exactly 4 years ago to this day as he opened for Autechre. He actually put on the best set of the night, the only other competition being some DJ that played two seperate 90 minute sets whereas everyone else got 45 minutes. I never checked his music out, but what better time than now?

This is not better than Autechre, or at least my favorites of theirs. Some of these tracks groove hard, and then a bunch bore the fucking shit out of me. Also 57 minutes is too long, and some of the sound effects are cheesy as all hell. Still, I commend the album for successfully maintaining the "video game outer space" sound dude was going for even when the tracks don't hit, and maybe I'll like this more with repeat listens.

I don't know why but this soundtrack reminds me a lot of the Beat Therapy album I reviewed that was the soundtrack to a game I played as a child. I recently switched from new-line Android to an old beat up iPhone 6 and wanted to download the game but it seems it isn't compatible with my phone

Day 631: uknowhatimsayin¿ by Danny Brown

It's not as good as XXX or Atrocity Exhibition but it's still very good.

That's all I'm saying do you really need me to say more on this one?

Day 632: The First Glass Beach Album by Glass Beach

I bet if I had reviewed this years ago, I would've enjoyed it more. As it stands, meh.

Day 633: After its own death / Walking in a spiral towards the house by Nivhek

I bet if I had reviewed this the same amount of years ago as I was imagining for Glass Beach, I would've enjoyed it about the same. As it stands, it's not bad I guess.

Day 634: Infest The Rats' Nest by King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard

I put this album on Spotify and failed to realize when the album ended because it autoplayed into more of their songs. In fact I couldn't even tell when any of the songs ended. That was boring as fuck.

Best Track: there was more than one song?

Day 635: Opaque Couché by Meat Beat Manifesto

I'm gaining muscle memory for accent mark keyboard shortcuts! This is the most accomplished I've felt in a while.

I'm 99.999999999% sure I've heard these dude's music before, and they've been around quite a while, but I just can't put my finger on it, so I'm judging this wholly on its own merits!

And on its own merits, I applaud these guys for how eclectic this album is in terms of both mood and energy. Some of these are chiller groovers, some are more soundscape-esque, some make me wish I was dancing at a music festival between the hours of 2-6AM and some feel surprisingly fast-paced, reminding me a bit of mid-period Aphex Twin (and sometimes almost as good!). I also like MOST of the use of samples here, though some are kinda corny.

Still, it's pretty damn hit-or-miss, sometimes even within the same song, and at around an hour it's way too fucking long. Thus, it gets the mode rating.

Best Track: Agelast
