Mark Rih Posted December 13, 2017 Posted December 13, 2017 (edited) Currents B-Sides we love talent idk the others, let me check out 3:33, you got me with the 'Drake vibes' edit: ok you didn't lie, I'm already loving 'Lose My Cool' Edited December 13, 2017 by Mark Rih
theblackestday Posted December 13, 2017 Author Posted December 13, 2017 (edited) Quote A collection of impeccable, masterfully crafted jazz songs. "Truth" even made an appearance in one of my dreams and whew was it a spiritual experience. On a side note, "Integrity" sounds a lot like Kate Bush's 50 Words of Snow, which is cool since it's my fave(?) from its album. favorite: Truth || least favorite: Integrity Quote Really interesting and very cool. favorite: Steroids || least favorite: Steroids Quote Even though I liked it since release, it was very much a grower for me. A lovely combination of atmospheric production and trap-laden dancey bops. A big improvement from the first EP in my opinion, while also being more pop-accessible. favorite: Passionfruit || least favorite: Drink I'm Sipping On (still great) Quote Derek Miller stated that he and Alexis will give mini-albums a shot for awhile to avoid long waits between full-length releases, with Kid Kruschev being the first one. I can't compare it to their previous album as I have yet to hear it, but for what it is, it's a pretty solid mni-alberm that finds a nice balance between their guitar-heavy noise pop roots and a more delicate, indie pop/electropop approach. Lots of great hooks, guitar riffs and production work. favorite: And Saints || least favorite: Florida Thunderstorm Quote Calling "Alice Glass" divisive would be an understatement. Thankfully, I enjoyed it quite a lot despite its flaws. Since Alice has shared her story, it's been clear that these songs are an attempt to overcome that abusive relationship. Musically, this has had major replay value for me; I adore the abrasive, industrial-tinged direction and appreciate Alice's vocals being on the front for the first time. Really excited to see where she goes next and I hope we can get a full-length by next year. favorite: Natural Selection, Forgiveness || least favorite: Blood Oath Edited December 31, 2017 by theblackestday
Escape Posted December 13, 2017 Posted December 13, 2017 Yass I knew queen was coming and placed higher than Kamasi Washington.
Escape Posted December 13, 2017 Posted December 13, 2017 Least favorite: Blood Oath Your faves are on point though. Passionfruit I didn't even listen to Drake's version I know Yaeji's is superior and just the right version for me.

She did that I almost put her at #2 but the graphics were already ready so Drake's version is excellent as well so iono bout Yaeji's being superior, but it's a gorgeous remix for sure

Tom Vercetti Posted December 13, 2017 Posted December 13, 2017 For some reason, i've never been a Kamasi fan. His work doesn't interest me. Yaeji + DG Reasonable #1 for your case.
Eeveelution Posted December 13, 2017 Posted December 13, 2017 Kathy Yaeji Lee did that! Neither Currents the re-up or Paradisia got more than one listen from me
Escape Posted December 13, 2017 Posted December 13, 2017 The amount of EPs i listened this is truly tragic. I'd be having like Top-2 eps of the year, bot of them being by Yaeji
