Especially since… It's been, like, 7 years since Year of the Snitch. They're probably going to sound radically different, more so than they do on every album.

What if Death Grips come back with their second mixtape ever instead of an album?

christtt's soft rock has been an excellent addition to his discography; some old favourites of mine, such as SEAWRLDハートブレーク and Deep Fantasy, got revisits; World Class especially clicked with me harder than it already had, but I want to shout out this:

God, I love this project's sample curation. A way to lean into modern pop while still giving us retro throwback aesthetics and a production that meets the best of both worlds.

DeclanLikesMusic @declanlikesmusic.bsky.social · 2d

All three of them!

DeclanLikesMusic @declanlikesmusic.bsky.social · 2d

I disagree.

Deer.

Which came first, the house or the tent?

Houses are just more permanent tents.

I don't care if bluesky goes to shit and the mods are unprofessional.

#DeclanLikes Donor Lens – As Warm as Summer

Nah, I'm actually ashamed I did not listen to this one as soon as it came out. The duo came through with some of the best classic vaporwave I have heard in years, with gorgeous sample interplay and Burial-styled ambient cuts in between.

I had my hopes up, too, frankly. Uh, but turns out, barely a year after the Eras Tour ended is not enough of a break at all.

Multiple breaks were required.

4.8 / 10 as of October 2025.

My recent last.fm history, which shows me listening to the Life of a Showgirl by Taylor Swift, up until Eldest Daughter, in which she says "smooth operator," so I took a break from the album and listened to Sade's Smooth Operator instead. Then I resumed with the rest of the album before getting to the first chorus of CANCELLED, which immediately made me pause and take a second break by listening to diberhaze's compatibility options before continuing the song and the rest of the album. If you're reading this, y'all owe Sabrina Carpenter an apology for the way y'all dragged her before this album came out the pipeline.

It's so disappointing how hard it is to find new #Vaporwave albums in this day & age.

Go to the best-selling fresh vaporwave albums page on Bandcamp, at least 95% of what you'll see are physical reissues of records that came out years ago! Help me out here, y'all. >:(

At the end of the day, while experimenting with the genre's creative boundaries and pushing its capabilities forward are absolutely among the healthiest things you could do to a genre, I feel like too many people are missing why we keep calling back to the glory years that are over a decade old now.

DeclanLikesMusic @declanlikesmusic.bsky.social · 9d

I'm still optimistic; I'm seeing people gain a greater understanding of what makes this genre as beloved as it is without painting it as "lazy" or "derivative," but you would have to drag these people away from their death's dynamic shrouds while they're kicking & screaming to convince them of that.
