Thank you bro!

Same, I'm very excited - and it's time to inject a lil bit more "nigga" into the modern electronic world, there's not enough (nowadays) especially from men even tho the genre(s) are so cracked and dope

And ngl, the Electronic and Dance scenes have replaced my love of Rap this decade that I fell out from overall since 2021ish - that is also the only genre that gives me the same feeling

Still a very communal, creative, major underground n mainstream scenes, competitive and collaborative scene like Rap - just that their sounds of the decade interests me way more, and it doesn't have the issues of modern Rap of all the headassery + it's more welcoming in current day

Shout out Kaytranada, Zhu, Blood Orange, Dabeull, Pink Pantheress, Majid Jordan, Sampha, JMNS, Gesaffelstein, Tinashe, Computer Data, Mondo GROSSO, Choir Boy, FKA Twigs, Marc Braun, James Blake, Jai Paul, Teezo Touchdown, Diamond Cafe, Flying Lotus, Charli XCX, Marc Brauner, Nicolas Jaar, Japanese Breakfast, Jamie XX, Mount Kimbie, SBTRKT, Nia Archives, Woodkid, ARCA, Thundercat & XXYYXX off the top of my head even tho there's more

And shout out the OGs such as Todd Terry, Prince, Patrice Rushen, Janet Jackson, Funkadelic, Beyonce, James Brown, 112, Herbie Hancock, Solange, Tatsuro Yamashita, Daft Punk, Madonna, Michael Jackson, Kaoru Akimoto, Rick James etc.

its 2025 and we still alive!

@op thanx for the tag btw. That house beat in op got me feeling like im in that zion post apocalypse party from the matrix

In

No problem family of course! N there's a lot more coming including more visual stuff

And I'm glad you like it especially with u being a DJ

One more week till the first drop, and if u want stems when the singles drop and/or the album for ur DJ sets, lemme know. I made structures of the songs in mind for DJs, remixes and radio mixes - there's a lot of work and thought into all of this 👀 👀

There is also a lil storyline and "deeper meaning" to the album n songs but while still overall being FUN

LETS GO, N U NOW ON THE LIST

Updated op with the genres that influenced and inspired me during the creation of the album:

• "GENRE INFLUENCES DURING CREATION: HOUSE MUSIC, NU-DISCO, UK GARAGE, SYNTHWAVE, FUNK, SYNTH POP, PSYCHEDELIC ROCK, DARKWAVE, TRAP, G-FUNK RAP, MOODY/ALT-RNB, CITY POP AND DANCE POP"

I got these genre tags from the songs I was generally listening to the most during the major creation period of the album, BUT ALSO, the genres of songs I put in my "work reference" playlist I would use to reference and get inspired from while creating and to compare quality for the album overall and individual songs that made my hodge podge mish mash that I like to call "Wave Funk" overall for simple terms 💀 💀

House Music, Nu-Disco & Funk are the major big 3 of influence tho
