Charli XCX - Pop 2 (2017) i truly believe this mixtape caused one of the many splinters in our timeline.
Pop 2 opened an entirely new possibility of what music could sound like, and captures her (and her producers') most playful moments.
|
Doss (2014) Feather-light emotional dance music, ahead of its time.
4 New Hit Songs is also incredible.
|
M83 - Dead Cities, Red Seas & Lost Ghosts (2003) Introduced to this beautiful album through Mr. Robot.
I've always admired how the guitars and synths melt into each other - biomechanical.
"Gone" comes on and I get teary eyed.
|
Death Cab For Cutie - Transatlanticism (2003) I get less anxious about big life changes and unpleasant weather when I listen to this album.
|
Justice - † (2007) it's †.
|
tdstr - 7 Grand Dance (2024)
Holy shit. A hard trance take on dariacore that plays like a 40 minute
DJ set. The 7/4 time signature is perfect, cutting out the fat and getting
straight to the point: you're gonna fucking jump to Evangelion. No one is allowed to say that
EDM is getting boring when this album exists.
|
Maple - SONGS TO PUT ON YOUR IPOD (2022) This album makes me so happy, it's so
true to the sound of happy hardcore that I listened to as a kid ♥
|
DJH & sv1 - voids (2022) a really beautiful textural album, a completely different plane of music
that i totally admire.

underscores - fishmonger (2021) little brag - i saw underscores on my birthday :) with each listen, fishmonger feels more and more like something i instinctively reach for and less like the hyperpop explosion it was born from.
|
Vince Staples - Big Fish Theory (2017)
The one and only collaboration between Vince Staples and SOPHIE in our world,
and I am endlessly grateful for its existence. i can only describe it as... you just had to be there.
|
Caroline Polachek - Desire, I Want To Turn Into You (2023)
easily my favorite album of 2023, with its messages about love and grief and also the public transportation imagery in its rollout ^_^
|
They Might Be Giants - Mink Car (2001) MINK CAR YAAAY MINK CAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i just love this album it's just fun and silly i love TMBG..
