First album of this that I can say I actively dislike.

Fav Tracks: Yamaha, Rewind, Automatic, Kindalove

Really fun album! I do not think I loved it as much as I have seen others love it, but I will sit with it a bit more. The only previous thing I have heard from Dijon is "Talk Down", which I love.

Day 4 is “Fever to Tell” (2003) by Yeah Yeah Yeahs

Fav Tracks: Maps, Date With The Night, Cold Light, Y Control

I think “Maps” made me not expect a lot of the anger and energy on this. I really liked it! I will definitely listen to more of their music.

Day 3 is "Freetown Sound" (2016) by Blood Orange

Fav Tracks: By Ourselves, Augustine, Hands Up, Juicy 1-4

Smooth ass production, a Carly Rae Jepsen feature, and sampling "For Colored Girls" by Ashlee Haze?? Oh I am innnnn.
