theblackestday Posted December 11, 2018 Posted December 11, 2018 loved a bunch of these EPs, some of which maybe or maybe did not make my list agree that this was quite a solid year for EPs, both in the quality and quantity of them
Da Vinci Posted December 11, 2018 Posted December 11, 2018 Love these aesthetics and Unforgettable was that bop
smholiv Posted December 11, 2018 Posted December 11, 2018 mess i only know like three although i liked them a lot! great to see loona here, and both the rv and wednesday campanella eps were nice stuff too

ATRL Moderator Tsareena Posted December 11, 2018 ATRL Moderator Posted December 11, 2018 I didn't like long sleep but I see LOONA . didn't listen to the rest ff
Tom Vercetti Posted December 11, 2018 Author Posted December 11, 2018 Thanks for the comments. Gonna start the update now.
Tom Vercetti Posted December 11, 2018 Author Posted December 11, 2018 20. New Optimism - Amazon To LeFrak (Art Pop) I discovered this thanks to the spotify discovery list. New Optimism (also known as Mito Hatiro) is a solo member from the 90s trip hop band Cibo Matto. The aspect I like the most about this ep is the post-industrial production. Recommended to those who likes leftfield pop. Key Track: Dr, My-Ho Spoiler 19. Amber Mark - Conexao (Alt R&B) I think this was an improvement from her EP last year. It's more fleshed out and less bedroom'd. If she keeps the momentum going then a debut album could be promising. Key Track: Love Me Right Spoiler 18. AL-90 & DX20V - Fuse004 (Outsider House) It's a couple of easygoing house tracks with apt vocal layering. This > Ross From Friends btw. Key Track: Odna Spoiler 17. Channel Tres - Channel Tres (Hip House) I want to avoid using the word "chill" but that's what the dude's voice is basically over the bass-heavy house beats. The EP doesn't get going until the 2nd track; Controller, which that + Jet Black is where the peak of this ep is. Still a solid listen overall. Key Track: Controller Spoiler 16. Chthe'ilist - Passage into the Xexannoth (Death Metal) I figure it's almost pointless to talk about any kind of metal on this forum so i'll just say that this was my favorite metal ep of the year (With Tomb Mold right behind). It's only two tracks within a 10 minute period. Key Track: Passage into the Xexannoth Spoiler 15. Sunareht - Sagas EP (Progressive Electronic/Berite Club) This is one of those "music sounds like the cover" scenarios. It's very glitchy and stutters throughout. Recommended for those who likes repetition and loops. I wasn't sure what "Berite Club" even meant before listening to this but according to rateyourmusic it's a type of dance music. Key Track: Bat-C Spoiler 14. Sunmi - Warning (K-Pop) Nicely produced and goes against the tired "aLL KpOP SoUNds ThE saME!" 'criticisms'. Why the spotify version doesn't include all the tracks I don't know. Key Track: Siren Spoiler 13. Ravyn Lenae - Crush EP (Neo Soul) She may be young but she has a lot of potential. Basically almost half of this ep has Steve Lacy involved, a recurrent figure but they mesh pretty well. This EP also got a lot of attention so eyes will be looked out on her. Key Track: The Night Song Spoiler 12. The Weeknd - My Dear Melancholy, (Alt R&B) I'm gonna defend this EP slightly because i've witnessed it getting into overhated territory. Of course it was hurt from being hyped as a "Sequel to House Of Balloons/Trilogy" but I didn't fall into that hype too deeply. There's not really any song here that I dislike (although Hurt You can be seen as filler). It IS more consistent than Starboy but that's to be expected due to 6 vs 18 song length differences. It doesn't match the highs of Starboy but it also doesn't reach its lows either. It's a mood setter and sticks to it. Also, the Try Me > Wasted Times > I Was Never There stretch is the highlight. Key Track: Wasted Times Spoiler 11. 90 Process - No Warehouse Needed (Techno) A five track mix of likeable jungle + throwback 90s techno. Key Track: Strictly Cut Spoiler
Tom Vercetti Posted December 11, 2018 Author Posted December 11, 2018 The spoiler section seems to be messed up so gonna fix that. But here's a recap anyway 20. New Optimism - Amazon To LeFrak 19. Amber Mark - Conexao 18. AL-90 & DX20V - Fuse004 17. Channel Tres - Channel Tres 16. Chthe'ilist - Passage into the Xexannoth 15. Sunareht - Sagas EP 14. Sunmi - Warning 13. Ravyn Lenae - Crush EP 12. The Weeknd - My Dear Melancholy, 11. 90 Process - No Warehouse Needed
Brandon Posted December 11, 2018 Posted December 11, 2018 don't know anyone in this set but will keep checking in on your list
Eeveelution Posted December 11, 2018 Posted December 11, 2018 Yeah if you use a spoiler everything typed after it will be included within the spoiler.. it's annoying dd.

It wasn't like this last year when I did the multiple spoiler thing. The way this forum is regressing Anyway, all video links are added now. I hope this doesn't slow down anyone's internet
Wicked Posted December 11, 2018 Posted December 11, 2018 MD,M isn't bad but.... Abel needs to do something else. This is getting boring. Need more songs like True Colors or Secrets. Amber is probably my favorite from this set, added the ones I haven't heard to my Spotify.
