With an artist like FKA, I respect her more than I actually like her. Some of her music, particularly magdalene, grew off me quick but I still the value that she puts into the craft... even though a lot of it is relying on studio tricks created by her cast of co-workers. Also I have nothing but empathy for what she emotionally has gone through. Her new album well, it's definitely better. Musically and atmospherically speaking, Tahlilah moves like a half-stepping loner, in a world that is both adventurous and (kind of) boring lo-fi study. The idea behind the way these songs are pressed together is at little more interesting than the predecessor. When we are talking about content and long-lasting impression and emotion, it's a mixed bag, and compared again with magdalene, it's more inconsistent.
Though, they are many many more great moments which makes it far superior and actually my favorite project the fellow alien has created so far. Highlights including a soothing joint in Minds of Men. The dreamcore esque Ride The Dragon is the tone-setter and I love its pacing. The ethereal slow jam Careless (where she unintentionally shows how great she is at melodic balance) is probably my favorite FKA tune, it's so cozy and alien and feel like being comforted by a lost mother. The floaty instrumentation is enough to drown out a nervous breakdown. Papi Bones has a poppy yet semi-experimental groove: reminds me of Timbaland if he went more electronic). Also, the damn moody Meta Angel beats Charli XCX's hyperpop at her own game, and Thank You Song is Tahlilah doing what she does best. Oh My Love used to be one of the worst on the tape, but I've warmed up it and now realize it's kind of like a Chris Brown tune (a la Heartbreak On A Full Moon) but more artsy which is cool.
Lowlights are the boneless Jealousy (with a horrendously awkward feature), Tears In The Club which was a single I believe (understandable considering how sell-out it sounds), the much lesser attempt at hyperpop on Pamplemousse (which isn't my genre to begin with - but it's still clearly better than atrocities like 100gecs), and these interludes that mostly are more confusing than amusing - they are average though. The autotune can be too misplaced, but at least it's not overworked so much to where it's overshadowing the fact that she actually sing so well, how little of a compliment that must be.
That being said, those I mentioned as highlights, are some of the biggest masterpieces of the entire, they contain finesse that are worth coming back to gnomesayin'. In a way, this reminds me a bit of Democrazy although miles away from being as childlike, but it's FKA's cutest and most down-to-earth set of vibe. [First added to this chart: 11/14/2022]

Man, 2022 just takes a big dump on 2021 with more quality. Girl-groups also is more shining in 2022, just look at Camp Cope on this album. This is atmospheric indie rock with a subtle twist of poppy singer-songwriter. If this is Jangle Pop, then I wish more Jangle Pop had the same unique effect this record has. Though the quality ideas quickly run out in the second half, in comparison to how impressive the album begins - there is only 2 relatively weak songs on here but besides the wonderful ballad Sing Your Heart Out, it isn't classy either. Especially compared to the tracks Caroline (production almost indescribable), Blue (airy pop with carefully written words) and The Screaming Planet (likable country music in indie rock form). The record's masterpiece being the Evanescence-ish One Wick At A Time with its classy agility and utterly unique chord progression-family (if you can call it that) set to nostalgic Alt-Country.

I dig the vibe and effect the guitar has (a mixture of 90s Dream Pop and 80s Indie Pop). Not everything strikes as frankly emotional, but the brief track lengths does not stop it from being forgivable in some cases. It also helps that there is 18 cuts, giving you better opportunities to choose which melodically and thematically hits the most. I would lie if I said I don't enjoy this more than a lot of 2022 albums that has had more effort in em. [First added to this chart: 11/14/2022]

I thought after the generally-pointless-but-actually-weirdly-joyful title track on this new Marlon Williams album that this could be another worthless summer indie pop project with maybe one remarkable tune if it were lucky. Turns out, it's one of the most focused indie pop records of the decade so far, at least this year properly. The musicianship is swallowed in the vibe, and Marlon writes the lyricism and topics in the atmosphere, not the other way around. And even though "focused" doesn't always mean emotionally or memorably intriguing, it's still more in awe with 90s masterpieces in Indie and Dream Pop than some other records I have heard this year. Yes, Soft Boys Make The Grade and My Heart The Wormhole results in lackluster atmosphere, but the best songs here like Trips, Easy Does It, River Rival and mainly Princess Walk capture that Dream Pop beauty that little Domme loves.

Even though it's clearly done with the help of a lotta electronics, this sour smooth candy floss landscape of Healing Potpourri's album Paradise is so sugar sweet it's kind of nostalgic. If you immerse yourself in it, there's a chance at least the highpoints will take you to some mental and musical euphoria. [First added to this chart: 11/14/2022]

This is like a crystal ball showing the future of you if you choose to follow Christ through a thick misty semi-psychedelic decade of blissfulness. [First added to this chart: 11/14/2022]

And more folk (especially some floaty indie singer-songwriter) stuff that takes less effort than most genres out there for me to like. Sometimes with the singer, she doesn't sound too original nor to revealing to notch my emotions (really other than the glorious wonderful title track) yet she knows what great atmosphere is, and surely handles the sequencing very very well.

A pretty urgent album from Algeria. Low points but still joyful to listen to. It's also the best Tshoumaren album, judging by the 4 albums I have heard within that genre.
Update July 2022: I just went to see them at the (Roskilde) Festival and they were so cool live. Each member had his own musical charm (one had a thromby bass, other had a watery guitar a la Cure and Mercury Rev, the next had those charismatic african drums, etc) and the music they ended playing resulted in delightfulness and challenging yet accessible for the grooves. They are greater in quality live than on record, and their drips were otherworldly. [First added to this chart: 11/14/2022]
