Baby's first listening log entry! You'll have to forgive me, I'm not exactly the best at reviewing music, but I still wanted to have a space for me to talk about my favourite music and why I love them so much!
You may have heard Ezra's work from the collaborative project Bape Fiends from either of the two albums that she's released with Sister Maple. Through this solo piece, Ezra presents 6 songs about love, "in my secret language."
With a wonderful variety of samples used in each track that still manage to feel coherent, it makes them stand on their own as their own unique pieces of art, while also providing a fantastic package when they're all grouped together in this album. None of the tracks sound like each other, with the exception of the ear-splitting gabber kicks that unify each track together.
Upon my first listen while stoned as hell, I was pleasantly surprised by how beautifully crafted this entire album is, and I've since listened to this album several ways through as of writing up this log entry, repeating each track individually several times. With every repeat, I feel more and more sure that this is going to become a classic mashcore album for me in the future, and is going to be one of my top recommended albums for those wanting to get into break/mashcore in general.
