    This is the best album Ive listened to so far this year, should also be up on all the major streaming services today. Fantastic production, just slams you back and forth from extreme to extreme, minimalist to maximalist, pop to ambient, while perfectly balancing and transitioning you with butter smooth execution, without letting any element drag on too long, really great album, not just your ordinary collection of songs.

    If you like this also check out iglooghosts most recent album neo wax bloom.

      You're the second person today to recommend it, I'll have to listen to it. wiki tells me she's got an old album, do you know if that is worth listening to?

    thoughts after listening:

    holy shit she really just dropped the best album of 2018

    nothing else i've heard this year has even come close to how genrebending, how adventurous, how fucking good this is... Was I expecting a 6 minute texturally fascinating ambient followed by the best pop song i've heard this year? no

    if you haven't listened to this yet you need to

    Probably one of the best things I've heard this year. Bubblegum bass fucks around with glitch pop and ambiance, ends up making one of the most interesting overall sounds I've experienced in a long time. Whole New World almost tricked me into thinking that The Knife had gotten back together for a guest piece on this. Super cool.
