BlackoutZone Posted December 4, 2020 Posted December 4, 2020 Damn y'all listen to so many EPs. Glad to see In a Dream being a staple on all the lists I've seen so far and I love to see the whole 12:00 love however I really do prefer XX after all, their pre-ITZY'd projects had more identity idk, of course Mix & Match remains unmatched.
mokitsu Posted December 4, 2020 Posted December 4, 2020 Mariposa is so nastyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy i'm in love with this. where was she???? this cyber reggaeton sound >>> (check out maria escarmiento!) I listened to Venice before how did i miss this MB release i definitely appreciate these more structured releases and pop songs with PC music influences than the usual hyperpop messy sound I liked Miss Keta and Molina on a first listen too (and Molina is so pretty wtf )
Delta Posted December 4, 2020 Posted December 4, 2020 Raye and Troye were my favorites from the last two sets

It's got a couple of tracks with really nice beats. did you enjoy her previous work? which one did you like more? 8 hours ago, KasioKas said: Yeah raye's ep was not her best work, I expected better. hm, yeah, she has yet to top her song shh. 8 hours ago, jpow said: wow oh wow at the amount of taste already but that's to be expected with you I forgot about Calvin's little side project until now, but he had several bops that came out from that. I've been listening to more Tei Shi after seeing her in several lists and I'm really liking what I hear. The title track is a bop ITZY slaying, though nothing from their EP is as good as ICY imo have you heard her albums? i remember liking the debut more than the sophomore. and also this bop before either of them: https://open.spotify.com/track/0jGayco2vDiq3kMpPFN2bI?si=bqH78ud-TPav2KQdOFRuQw 7 hours ago, Psycho said: I use Nothing On Me, Amnesia and Ride Or Die from KAI but I only listened like twice so far nnn Not Shy is cute, but Surf and Be In Love are great B-sides RAYE was so good 3 songs for a kpop mini is good, if im being honest. 7 hours ago, Blue Rose said: I loved Love Regenerator by Calvin. Bit I didn’t bother listening to part 2 Raye’s album is solid too mess, at least you knew it existed 7 hours ago, Mr. Blue_Shirt said: Ahh so glad you update. Hope everything is alright The descriptions are definitely interesting but i'm screaming at Itzy description though You aren't lying nn But i really interested with Tei Shi since my friends has been recommended her music to me for quite sometime. I also haven't listen to Kai & Raye. I should check it out tei shi is super hit and miss but i think she appeals to a broad amt of people. raye is pretty atrl-friendly. 2 hours ago, dreamofyou said: in a dream, yup taste the way i don't know most of these luckily this can be used to discover more music though please let me know if you made any good discoveries. 2 hours ago, BlackoutZone said: Damn y'all listen to so many EPs.

Oni Posted December 5, 2020 Posted December 5, 2020 Bookmarked that M¥SS KETA EP, I really love it wow! really loving the diversity here
elvenOCEAN Posted December 5, 2020 Posted December 5, 2020 (edited) love regenerator was a big disappointment. I liked one song... Pretty much the same goes for in a dream, although I did really love Take Yourself Home. Now that was so refreshing! Other I can't comment on as I haven't heard them. I am, however, interested in Park Hye Jin and blue hawaii and will be giving them a listen later! Edited December 5, 2020 by elvenOCEAN
Staryu Posted December 5, 2020 Posted December 5, 2020 Only listened to Suga out of those but I really liked it (better than her album tbh) Captain Hook >>
Remmy Posted December 5, 2020 Posted December 5, 2020 Exclusive 2019 songs~ Door, Want You In My Room & Secret... delicious!!!!! EPs~ The best tracks on Die 4 Ur Love are my top 2 yup yup. Gonna listen to Euphoric Love Songs before I finalize my list but Love of Your Life is nice. A Little Rhythm & In a Dream are both incredible M. Bay's mini songs don't really interest me but their main EPs are solid thus far. Ready to see what else is on the way
Tom Vercetti Posted December 5, 2020 Posted December 5, 2020 I've seen that troye ep posted on a lot of other lists. Based on your descriptions, gonna take a peek on isabella lovestory and blue hawaii.

ATRL Moderator Legend E Posted December 5, 2020 ATRL Moderator Posted December 5, 2020 euphoric love songs is soo good
potent Posted December 5, 2020 Posted December 5, 2020 We stan Troye, although it's interesting to see everyone liking the EP better than Bloom, I honestly had no idea that was the case Honestly I'm not familiar with the others, Blue Hawaii sounds kinda interesting though
Ewan Chaos Posted December 5, 2020 Posted December 5, 2020 Magdalena Bay, literally just discovered them from Tom's list so I'll check out the full EP! omg Blue Hawaii I TOTALLY should have put them in my EP list as well (it easily would have been top 10) because of the length but because RYM calls it a mixtape I put it in my full album list sjdksljdsl. Not My Boss is so SASSY and SNIPPY I love it.

Mezik Posted December 5, 2020 Posted December 5, 2020 Megan thee Stallion & Troye's EPs were quite cute. They know how to serve consistent quality.
skankle Posted December 5, 2020 Posted December 5, 2020 Nnn Kitty is still going? I thought she faded away with the rest of that Kreayshawn era bunch. I never got over the youtube comment that said she looks like she smells like McDonalds. Yes Magdalena Bay stanning I might give Troye a shot, I've just found him so bland and flat before.
TheWayWeWere Posted December 5, 2020 Posted December 5, 2020 In a Dream is my favorite Troye release to date I hope he continues in that direction same with RAYE basically

ATRL Moderator madonnas Posted December 6, 2020 Author ATRL Moderator Posted December 6, 2020 5. india jordan - for you genre: house, french house descriptors: danceable, immediate for fans of: kelly lee owens, ela minus best songs: for you, rave city so yeah, this is accessible house music for fans of music thatrs more pop/immediately satisfying. its a pretty simple ep with no flairs or gimmicks, just bops and fun house music. i dont really think its particularly inventive but it does it well. i love that all the songs are super fast paced too, great for those of us with no attention spans. 4. magdalena bay - mini mix vol 2 genre: synth pop, art pop descriptors: manic, production showcase. for fans of: pc music/hyperpop, grimes best songs: body, sky2fall so this "mini mixtape" (im just calling it an ep lol) kinda tricks you, as live4ever sounds like their most charli song ever, but then it switches the script and gives you their most sonically advanturous material they have done so far! its addictive and engaging but the only flaw is that its too ****ing short. seriously, you have to listen to it like 3x to get the full experience, thats how good it is and how much more i want. full versions, please. this is definitely an improvement from mini mix vol 1 which was great, though maybe more hook driven. 3. lynks - smash hits, vol 1 genre: electroclash descriptors: tacky, ranting for fans of: peaches, fischerspooner best songs: i dont know what i want, str8 acting ok, this is some random british twink who is making electroclash with lots of early 80s new wave reference. its totally up my alley, and it has really dry and tacky humor which i appreciate. kinda cringe, but in the perfect way. his vocal style is fast paced and very rant-y and he even covers a courtney barnett song (though thats not on this release) to give you an idea of his vocal style. i think this is a super underrated release!! 2. christine and the queens - la vita nuova genre: synth pop descriptors: romance for fans of: everybody should like this best songs: i disappear in your arms, la vita nuova ahh, can you believe there was a time when i thought miss christine was a boring artist? boy have things changed as shes quickly becoming one of my favorite artist. and holy ****, a caroline polachek collaboration thats near flawless. there are some lovely heartwrenching ballads on this too like the lead single people ive been sad. shes just all around showing us what she can do with only 5 tracks.
ATRL Moderator madonnas Posted December 6, 2020 Author ATRL Moderator Posted December 6, 2020 (edited) 1. shygirl - alias genre: uk bass, industrial hip hop descriptors: slutty, cocky for fans of: m.i.a., pc music, arca best songs: freak, siren, leng ahhhhhhhhhhhhh. honestly, this ep seems like something created in a laboratory made just to please me. who else is making industrial slut pop like shygirl? nobody, because nobody has carved out this niche before. Edited December 6, 2020 by Madame X
ATRL Moderator madonnas Posted December 6, 2020 Author ATRL Moderator Posted December 6, 2020 full ep list: Spoiler shygirl - alias christine and the queens - la vita nuova lynks - smash hits vol 1 magdalena bay - mini mix 2 india jordan - for you myss keta - Il cielo non è un limite blue hawaii - under 1 house troye sivan - in a dream molina - vanilla shell koto - 琴虎飯店 magdalena bay - a little rhythm and a wicked feeling loona - 12:00 pva - toner isabella lovestory - mariposa harunemuri - lovetheism cakes da killa - muvaland itzy - not shy planet 1999 - devotion park hye jin - like this kitty - charm and mirror megan thee stallion - suga tei shi - die 4 ur love raye - euphoric sad songs kai - kai love regenerator - love regenerator 1
mokitsu Posted December 6, 2020 Posted December 6, 2020 i couldn't really care about shygirl sadly... christine's ep was good, but i think im getting tired of her "shtick". i agree that the Caroline collab was next level tho. i listened to india jordan the other day b/c of another list and i liked it! lynks is so british and hot too let me listen to the magdalena release since i liked the one you put yesterday.
K$Ellie Posted December 6, 2020 Posted December 6, 2020 Not Shy absolutely horrible! Surf was cute enough thought and I sometimes ironically bop to the title track bc of how bad it is the Kai mini was meh for me I counted Raye as and album, it was very cute, especially Love Me Again which is excellent Suga isn't good overall but has 2 of her best songs Magdalena was nice enough, not any standouts like Ghost tho Love seeing Loona praise ofc but XX is amazing btw and Troye's slapped too lovely #1 as well whew also I'm skipping thru this Tei Shi EP and it sounds good, regretting not having listened before
