eternal wind by dog enterprises (Digital)

internet dating club The year is coming to a close so I don’t expect new revolutionary music to hit before the 2020s. Maybe dog enterprises hasn’t exactly done that but he has done something unique with this album worth noting. They take the vocal elements of radio weather broadcasts, typically found in weathersoft, and uses them in a dark ambient tone. Which works way better than I’ve even seen a weathersoft album in giving off the dark mysterious feelings of natural disasters. As it is Friday, I can safely say this is the most impactful album of the week for me. released December 12, 2019

Paradise Records We don’t get a lot of mallsoft tracks like Mirrored Buildings. What stands out is the soothing japanese singing that usually would be fit for a future funk track. Makes me wonder how many future funk songs could be transformed into a track like this. Mallfunk anyone? released December 11, 2019

𝐙𝐞𝐭𝐚 𝐑𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐢 by websurfer (Digital)

websurfer Typical ECCOJAMS sounds. The epic 80s feel in the track MECCA was interesting, also on the verge of being a synthwave track. I might be getting those vibes because of the album art though. I didn’t know what the album title meant and learned this: “Zeta Reticuli, Latinized from ζ Reticuli, is a wide binary star system in the southern constellation of Reticulum.” released December 11, 2019

Plastic Reverie by MindSpring Memories (Digital) 5

Plastic Reverie by MindSpring Memories (Digital)

MindSpring Memories Usually I don’t like to post about singles as there’s usually an EP that follows. But damn is the album art on this my cup of tea. It’s this perfect mix of bubble gum, 90s and glitch. I could see this album art on a plastic holo foil tote bag – all shiny and tacky. Maybe I like this design too much but for you vaporwave fans; This is a cool track. It takes a mallsoft like soundtrack, throws some wobbles, and a background sax that follows the melody. The drums are just shoegaze enough that it’s calming. Those 5 minutes went by quick. Time for another listen. released April 10, 2019

Futureworlds by SoLaRiS (Digital) 7

Futureworlds by SoLaRiS (Digital)

SoLaRiS The full album isn’t available yet but check out the track “A Glitchy Malfunction”. It’s an interesting mix of synthwave sounds but becomes this progressive beats like track dabbing into industrial. Get’s some video games feels in and out. Cool album thus far. released December 7, 2019

The World That No Longer Exist by 불가사의그만큼INTERNET (Digital) 8

The World That No Longer Exist by 불가사의그만큼INTERNET (Digital)

Shibuya Audio Company The album art has DDS on it so i was interested. With tags like contemporary Jazz and Christain I wasn’t sure what I was expected to hear. As usual in Vaporwave, even if it looks like it’s going to be memes, there’s actually some pretty good music in there. The first song, Welcome, has an interesting transition between ambience, beats and experimental. Which is a great way to describe the rest of the album. Favorite track, Vague Hill. released December 11, 2019

1976. That was the year I went to the ancient land of Burma. It was a short trip, but i met a special person. The villagers were some of the best people i've met. They gave me spicy food, medicinal herbs, all kinds of non-sweet tea, they showed me to convive with the nature, the psychedelics, extra-sensorial experiences. They showed me love. They showed me what life is all about. It was magical.

Here, I bring you the only recordings I own from that trip. This kind of music was present everywhere there, and I want to show you at least a little bit of that magical land.

With love, from Ghana.
