What are some of the best transition moments when one song transitions into another?

 

One of the most noted ones is Chromatica II to 911, with a bunch of random memes being made about it

 

 

I personally love the transition from Raven to Bruises on Kelela's 2023 album

 

 

Any others? 

Cozy/Alien Superstar 

Energy/Break My Soul

Cold War to Tightrope

 

 

Brandy Clark’s “Northwest” into “She Smoked in the House.”

Sanctuary/Bedtime Story

Janelle Monáe has mastered this and by extension the very LP format.

Melanie-Portals

Xtina - Walk Away/Fighter

all american b/bad idea right?

my faves:

Freak / Art Deco

NDA / Therefore I Am

bury a friend / ilomilo

This. The transitions in The Archandroid were PHENOMENAL

Susanne Sundfør

Accelerate → Fade Away

 

Janelle Monáe

Q.U.E.E.N. → Electric Lady

 

V V Brown

Fractured → Instincts

(This one absolutely gagged me because she had already released Instincts, so when I listened to the album the first time, I was like, “Wait, is this about to transition?!” and then it did )

 

Album Links:

Spoiler

 

 

 

Mercurial World by Magdalena Bay has a few, and the album loops from the end back to the beginning if you leave it on repeat 

 

for specific instances, I really love Dawning of the Season -> Secrets (Your Fire) and Something For 2 -> Chaeri
