Material Girl - Izumi Hazuki End of Days

The jungle / hip-hop producer dropped a new one with a lot of indie rock last year. It was very good.

[8.6/10]

Hysterical Love Project - Lashes

Downtempo / shoegaze. I love this so much..

Release date: 2023-03-21

[8.5/10]

betcover!! - 卵

This is probably my favorite album of theirs. It’s got just the right amount of flair without making the whole thing sounding like a jumble of underdeveloped ideas.

Release date: 2022-12-21

[8.3/10]

Maya Shenfeld - Under the Sun

Electro-acoustic synth music / neoclassical. Surreal and sad. Love it.

Release date: 2024-01-19

[8.3/10]

Speaker Music - Techxodus

Experimental techno. I’m gonna buy his book.

Release date: 2023-09-08

[8.3/10]

Erika de Casier - Still

Y2K R&B. Sounds dope.

Release date: 2024-02-21

[8.2/10]

Kim Gordon - The Collective

No-wave noise guitars on trap / industrial beats. Pretty cool stuff.

Release date: 2024-03-08

[8.1/10]

Porcelain - Porcelain

I would tell my kids that they are Unwound. Well a little less experimental and more hardcore-y, but the similarity is definitely there. Looking forward to what they are up to next.

Release date: 2007-06-04

[7.8/10]

Stik Figa, The Expert - Ritual

Conscious jazz-rap. The lyrics is fire, the beats are mid though.

Release date: 1990-08-21

[7.6/10]

William Doyle - Springs Eternal

This one has that Elvis Costello kind of vibe to it. Not bad but also not a huge fan of it.

Release date: 2024-02-16

[6.9/10]

Goyard Ibn Said - Goyard Comin’: Exordium

Ghais Guevara’s alter ego. Compared to the main persona this one’s more clout driven, but still has its serious moments.

Release date: 2023-07-09

[6.6/10]

The Callous Daoboys - Celebrity Therapist

The Dillinger Escape Plan with a bunch more samples and melodic passages. Not gonna lie but this is kind of annoying…

Release date: 2022-09-02

[6.0/10]
