"So... who's actually heard this album, and who's just rating it low because it's Mariah Carey?" Reply
"such an underrated album, far better than the uber-produced, filler-filled all eyez on me." Reply

"How to define it? Brilliant Full of emotions, an exploration of acoustic and digital instruments all in different layers. The better way to listen to 10,000 HZ, is to turn off the lights and turn your stereo on as loud as you want, you wont regret. Mixtures of electronic music, progressive rock, ..." [+] Reply

"Lovely work from Kurt Vile. He's really came into his own as an artist and this album is him doubling down on that formula. Great Indie/Americana. Best tracks: Pretty Pimpin, Wheelhouse, Wild Imagination" Reply

"Bricolage opens pretty simply. A neatly arranged slowly paced track based around a smooth as fuck jazz baseline. The neat and laid-back nature of stoney-street lets you know that Tobin is into jazz, and that he's just as happy to make use of cool-jazz and smooth jazz as he is to implement the int..." [+] Reply

"Only hits!! But my favourite one is "Fleas". I don't know why, it's great. 1 and a half minute of happiness" Reply
"Daniel Lopatin creates on this record a sonic representation of the virtual world's fragmented false memory. This is the least decipherable album he's yet released, which makes it quite a 'hard' listen, but this is definitely the most bold one too. This is a contemplating on themes of virtual mem..."

"One of the wildest R&B records in years. Just when you think you know where a song is heading, it's likely to pivot into something completely different. It's not always seamless, but it's always exciting. I'm three or four listens at this point and I'm still finding new things while still finding..." [+] Reply

"This was a thoroughly enjoyable album and there seems to be a few more risks taken on this album than their previous work. While there still is the odd generic song that could and should have been cut, there is also a lot of great songs. Such as Good Girls and How Not To Drown where the Robert Sm..." [+] Reply
