Crawl is WAY too low sis, but I love the stanning. I've found myself in love with the vid as well & tryna steal those dance moves for myself.

Funny thing is I've known the song for a while but just got around to watching the actual video earlier this week.

It surprised me at first time because I didn't expect it to be that catchy. Yung Lean has a history of having some pretty autotune'd heavy nonsense.

I didn't make the rules.

Besides it's always been a legit sub-genre and not something that Lady Gaga made up in her own head in 2013. 

 

Updating later today~

185. Real Estate - Darling (Indie Rock)

 

2d891934.jpg

 

Spoiler

 

 

Darling is nothing new from them but still a comfy tune nonetheless. Their summer beach feel is still present. 

 

184. Bones - Oxygen (Cloud Rap)

 

artworks-000228985240-8msr2n-t500x500.jpg

 

Spoiler

 

 

For headphone users, this never fails to get me pumped up. The bass is hard hitting and so is his energy. 

 

183.  Wiki - Pretty Bull (Abstract Hip Hop)

 

no mountains in manhattan_wiki.jpg

 

Spoiler

 

 

His voice may be an acquired taste but that doesn't mean the production here isn't sick. 

 

182. Everything Everything - Good Shot, Good Soldier (Indie Pop)

 

f1595ce544c42f8819cbc0eedf65be59.1000x1000x1.jpg

 

Spoiler

 

 

Their new album didn't do much for me but Good Shot is one of those album gems that I can't ignore. The final chorus is huge. 

 

181. Lapalux - Rotted Arp (Electronic/Wonky)

 

BF061_Cover.jpg

 

Spoiler

 

 

When the 2nd half bass kicks in, whew. It's a slow buildup from the beginning with the female spoken word, but throughout the song she's welcome to occupy

 

180. Julie Byrne - Natural Blue (Contemporary Folk)

 

f0a6f4e4.jpg

 

Spoiler

 

 

Whichever Starbucks play this deserves a 5 star rating. Drag her all u want, but this track serves beauty. 

 

179. The Mountain Goats - Rain In Soho (Indie Folk)

 

3e5a6a93.jpg

 

Spoiler

 

 

What a way to start up their album. Rain in Soho offers momentum and power that sets itself apart from the rest. 

 

178. Joe Goddard - Home (Nu-disco/Synth-Funk)

 

5a6f6698.jpg

 

Spoiler

 

 

There are some signs of 2018 having a potential disco buzz, if so i'm here for it. Joe Goddard is a member of Hot Chip, so I expected to track to serve some funky waves (after Why Make Sense?)

177. Nick Hakim - Roller Skates (Psychedelic Soul) 

 

nickhakimcover2_sq-e0a21916814595f255769fe057e4f8554f26a4d1-s300-c85.jpg

 

Spoiler

 

 

*Listens to Unknown Mortal Orchestra Once* 

I love how trippy this song is. 

 

176. Moonchild - Cure (Neo-soul)

 

5060205158123.jpg 

 

Spoiler

 

 

Moonchild reminds me of Hiatus Kaiyote, and that's a good thing. They serve mellow soul songs with pleasant harmonies here and there. 

 

175. Allie X - Vintage (Synthpop)

 

220px-Allie_X_CollXtion_II.jpg

 

Spoiler

 

 

Vintage has been recently acclaimed here as one of her best songs and I can see why :jamming: 

 

174. Cigarettes After Sex - Opera House (Dream Pop)

 

Cigarettes_After_Sex_ST_1500x1500_300dpi-1024x1024.jpg

 

Spoiler

 

 

If there's a song you need to hear from them for a lush and ethereal experience, it's this one. 

 

173. Benjamin Booker - Believe (Blues/Garage Rock)

 

bb_witness_albumart_neil-krug_sq-69fe22bbe9911ce94d3558a3a4f03980193de8d1-s300-c85.jpg

 

Spoiler

 

 

I enjoy the rasp in his voice as it really compliments the blues rock sound. Believe has emotion and contextual meaning. 

 

172. Rapsody ft Kendrick Lamar & Lance Skiiwalker - Power (Hip Hop)

 

rapsody-album-cover-1.jpg

 

Spoiler

 

 

It's kinda interesting how Rapsody got no buzz around here when we see nonstop praise for the likes of Cardi, Cupcakke, Remy, etc. Her album didn't get much coverage while it did have some keepers. Think of Power as a sibling to Complexion when Kung Fu Kenny & Rapsody first showed their duo potential. 

 

171. The Doppelgangaz - Boston Beard (Hip Hop)

 

76987-dopp-hopp.jpg

 

Spoiler

 

 

Dope duo, production & notable lyricism. They're too cool for mainstream.

I don't know nothing about this set except the Real Estate one, so lemme check these later. Darling is good :clap3:

It's actually a genre :jonny:  Well sorta, it just implies it's pop music that plays with unconventional structures or pulls from genres not usually associated with pop (usually pop is from rock, dance, hip hop, or R&B - or jazz if its old)

So glad at all this critical acclaim for Allie's best song.  And here I was thinking I was the only one :skull:

The Mountain Goats are from my home city so all the hipsters that come back here for family always talk about them ff

I feel like people just like tsunami because it sounds sorta like alt electropop but I don't think it's that good.

Idk, something was clearly missing this time around (and I'm not talking about M*tt :-x). It just wasn't as tight as their two previous albums and felt a bit unfocused.

 

This Nick Hakim track was p great, my fav from today's update :clap3:

The name kinda screams tumblrcore but I put it aside. Also, they can tend to be on the samey side, but there's a couple of exceptions.

A friend of mine recommended me Mountain Goats and he's a hipster himself. They attract their audience for sure.

It sounds more on the mature side and I felt the song was a nice change from her usual antics.
