What I've been listening too !! 2024/03/25
ch2rms - skins
I'm not super tapped in with chr2ms but I am so glad that I found this tape very recently after it's release becuase it's really good, albeit quite long.
claustrophobia is probably my favourite track off the album as h3artch3rades singing is superb and chr2ms compliments it so well. The beat from inebriated (prod lino & digipak) is so crazy too and chr2ms vocals match perfectly on top.
I'm also really into the title track skins, the piano is super emotional and sets up the mood amazingly with the monolog at the end.
You can go listen to it on Soundcloud :D
DJ Sharpnel - p2p. ピアッツーピアッ!
Recent I've been listening to a lotttt of DJ Sharpnel and making my way through listening to their discography all the way through. And so far, as an albumn, p2p has stood out from the rest.
Although most of my favourite tracks are on different albums, I feel as though p2p flows much better as an album. It has many more interlude tracks and more variety and other Sharpnel Projects up to that point. CO・CO・RO is a killer opening track, followed immediately by Hattenカーニバル! which is by far one of my favourites on the album. Another stand-out for me is m1dy's track which is super high energy and just goes.
You can go listen to it here, as a flac download!

funeral - i know something you don't
At the time of writing this is funeral's most recent project, like I have with many of his previous works, I am really enjoying it so far. His style has definitely evolved over the years but it has remained similar enough to keep me intrigued with every new EP/Album he releases.
My standout track for this album is "i've finally run out of options". Specifically the production is just great, and I think it includes the start of Osaka's "Oh my gah" voiceline lol. Another one of my favs is "where nobody goes", again has great production and super catchy chorus.
I'm also really rocking with the cover art for this one too.
You can go listen to it on Soundcloud, and most other streaming platforms. As he provides downloads to most of his music on his soundcloud in wav (awesome), I have converted to flac and added some data if anybody wants it here ^^.
DJ Kuroneko - street glow
I went through a huge Kuroneko phase for a while back in last year's summer and have been listening a fair bit again recently as they have released a new neko garage album. This meant I also revised some of their older stuff and street glow was something I never really listened to.
I feel now like I might have missed out as it is an amazing listen. As always in DJ Kuroneko's music the breaks are great and chopped really nicely, super satisfying to listen to. The atmosphere on this project is amazing too, just like many of their other releases. "resolution" is honestly one of my favourites on the album, a great ambient track. "i should '' is also another stunning track with high pitched, fast drums, very similar vibe to probably my favourite Kuroneko track "walking".
You can go listen to it on Soundcloud, or buy from their Bandcamp.

Cement Tea & EriS - Cute Possession EP / Super cool style, I'm not even sure what genre this is but it goes crazy.
sedate - unknowing to show x deadaux / Sedate is one of my favourite artists of all time and whenever he drops it almost immediately becomes a new favourite song for a few weeks.
Sayako - ooq freestyle 24 elfaction (??) / Sayako got some freaky ass titles lmao. I wasnt a huge fan of this release to start with but after a few listens I can't stop.
