lol I hope people who think this way realize their favorite music is going to be old af before they know it

It's stupid not to listen to Graduation now matter how you put it

Bonobo - Black Sands is worth a mention

would tell u to listen to lcd soundsystem but youll probably give it a 5

Rebirth a 10/10. Nobody else can pull that off.

Recovery over Contra is killing me

Doing two short albums today. Starting with Sleigh Bells - Treats

Can't give that to an album with Dance Yrself Clean. We'll see

Crazy, I been playing the hell out of Treats and specifically Rill Rill recently. CoT is one of my favorite underrated projects from the whole decade too

Day 18: Sleigh Bells - Treats

Wow this is heat, never heard of them before this thread. It's cool really loud and distorted and noisy and it's kind of a mess but also sounds really consistent. All the songs hit, the highlights being Kids, Infinity Guitars, Run The Heart, Rill Rill, and Treats (best song). But really all of it is strong. Like the rock and pop elements. Like that the album sounds as bratty and quirky as the cover looks.

It's like proto bubblegum bass and proto hyper pop but with more industrial and alternative rock inspirations. Aged pretty well imo because this would still sound unique today. If you want something high energy and weird this gets the job done. Really over the top with a lot of crazy things going on, entertaining 30 minutes front to back. But might ruin your speakers from all the bass and distortion lol.

now this is what i’m talkin bout

glad u enjoyed it

Causer of this a classic

Lol I think c robin sampled from here

Can’t find it anywhere but I think he did in Punta Cana

Day 18: Toro y Moi - Causers of This

This album is cool it's a nice humble bedroom album from Toro y moi before he really went left. On the first listen I was like ok it's just chill music of that time and it does have dated things in it like all the fade ins and fade outs and over the top reverb. But it's really charming actually and is just a nice vibe.

I do have a thing with lofi producers and the thing with Toro is he sings (which is why Fax Shadow, Low Shoulders and Causers of This are such highlights) and his style sounds a little 80s pop inspired sometimes and synthpop inspired so it's not like most "brainfeeder" type producers.

Anyway I can see myself going back to this a lot, nice production, it transitions well between songs, has that indie feeling and warmth.

Let's get it

Toro has such a good and diverse discography

I’ve never heard of this either but I’m intrigued

Flockaveli

Lets fuxking go

Karma

Greatest trap album ever

Yoooooooooooooooooooooooo taking me back with this one

Day 19: Waka Flocka Flame - Flockaveli

POW POW POW POW b**** I'm bustin at em

The positives: it goes hard, it's ignorant, a lot of energy, it's fun, a lot of catchy hooks and adlibs. It helped popularize trap music, the Lex Luger production influenced trap production from then on. There's also something about these beats being loud and extra with all those horns and snares. Makes you miss that time a little.

The negatives: It's long and drags a little, the weedcarriers that are on half the songs are ass (but real Makaveli vibes from this one and real for putting them on), it's a little repetitive and dated today but some of it is because trap took a lot from it.

It's a little like what 80's rap is for 90's rap, that's what this album is for modern day trap. It set the standard and what it's supposed to be all about and I think that's cool.

Favorite songs are Bustin at Em, Hard In The Paint, No Hands (classic!!!), Bricksquad, O Let's Do It, For My Dawgs, F*** This Industry.

Real trap s***...

i like the 80s rap comparison
