too many damn albums to listen to

Was just talking to my friend about this. This year especially it’s just stimuli overload with all these albums

might force myself to not listen to each new release for a week. the amount of good music is just way too much. I can't let any of these songs marinate in my mind

yeah I’m firmly with the Brass >>> Shrines opinion, both are f***ing great tho

How’s the small bills and elucid album?

I feel like I can't compare or quantify them like that. Both are brilliant in their own right for sure, but I feel you

Fantastic. Really showcases Elucid's range. Production and features are on point too. You should definitely check that.

Probably going to check it out tomorrow. In two minds whether to bother checking the carti album too, can’t see me liking that though

I've been on a rite-of-passage journey out of the dust and into more zoomer type s***, and I listened to a few tracks and was really indifferent. Though it seems like people are disappointed lol

How do you guys even keep in the know? This thread keeps blindsiding me with projects.

The small group of pro-dusters on here are always tuned in, but I agree—like I was telling dude a few posts back—it’s so overwhelming having all this (great) music to listen to

I get it, I'm just saying atleast it will get a wider reach in the niche that it exists

I’m just trying to catch up on a few tbh bro, I have listened to more this year than usual though due to lack of work with this covid s***, so I’ve had plenty of spare time. The underground thread is really good for putting you into new s*** though tbf

elucid delivers but i found the beats a bit gimmicky to my taste tho

Huh how do you mean

and if you dig moor mother make sure to check her side project irreversible entanglements if you haven't yet... it's dense

i'm not sure how to define it, but besides the darker ones many beats feel like "happy experimental pop" which is not really working for me

Some tracks do feel like they’re going for that industrial rap type sound like death grips, like here be dragons, masters of clock x etc. But most of the album is pretty nice. Like you say the darker tracks are defiantly the better sounding ones

I def don’t share this criticism

I think I know what he means although I’d describe it as more of an industrial rap sound, it’s on a few of the tracks

Maroons is legit some of the hardest music I've ever heard no cap

yeah but i like the dark/indus stuff better on this one

haha iss all good... to make it simple i find some beats kinda goofy, but people having it another way is what makes music our great refuge

Rock Cries too both produced by Olof Melander... need to peep his album with Moor Mother f***
