"I loved Holly Herndon's "Platform" and it's true that the San Francisco musician amazed her entourage with her experimental music blending technology and organic. Four years later, she recurs in this approach with her new audacious album called "Proto". Holly Herndon created an artificial intelli..."  [+]  Reply

"quickly becoming my fav project of hers. Every cut is as hypnotizing and catchy as the last. Some really great incorporation of horns from the Spells EP that blend nicely with the 90s-era trance and experimental bits. 8.5-9/10."  Reply

"Love this album. With every listen you just get more drawn into it in a very transcendent spaced out way. Gets better every time. Slowly becoming one of my favorite Anathema albums"  Reply

"I’m a big fan of when artists decide to go into a different direction with their music. I hate it when a band or a musician just stagnates and makes the same album over and over again. Well, I shouldn’t say I hate it, because I’m a big fan of some bands that do exactly that, but it’s really nice ..."  [+]  Reply

"This isn’t a terrible album, but it’s not terribly good either It all just feels and sounds so incredibly safe with sparking clean production you could eat your lunch off. Where are the unfiltered guitars? Where are the sicko lyrics about murder , incest and mayhem? Slicing up eye balls? More lik..."  [+]  Reply

"This is a really fascinating album! Though I didn't care much for Chances Coloring Book, this one is somewhat less pop-oriented, but more importantly its a lot more free-form and experimental. Songs are strucutred in very unique ways for hip-hop albums, and there are even entirely non hip-hop par..."  [+]  Reply
