My Box Set Of Chromakopia Came In! It Took Me Forever To Figure Out How To Assemble The Container But

Sat down and listened to an album that @delarai recommended me. This is Lupe Fiasco’s Samurai. I really enjoyed this project and the clever lyrics and storytelling in tracks like Mumble Rap, Palace and Bigfoot. The production throughout it is also amazing. The first beginning tracks like Samurai and Cake is like early Lupe but the latter half is more relaxed and almost lofi-esque until it circles back at the end with Til Eternity. Overall, really solid project.

Favorite tracks: Samurai, Mumble Rap, No. 1 Headband, Bigfoot, Cake.

A list of my personal favorite albums. Some helped me get through emotional patches with things in my personal life or made me appreciate the recommendations from friends and family. Some introduced me to smaller artists or the genre as a whole. I could go on and on with some albums but this is my first post here and I don't exactly know what the character limit is or if people would want to just hear me ramble on my first post. If you do want to discuss or talk about certain albums, let me know.

first post on tumblr waow… heres something I drew after i got inspired by a pic off pinterest. anyway i love holden he's so relatable

My collection of cassettes

Felt like showing off some of my music collection and i should probably start simple. First off, this is my current portable cassette player. I don't find myself using it as much since it's a bit shaky at points and feels like they play at a lower pitch unless it is completely still.

Here are my custom cassettes. News at 11, Blvcklvnd Rvdix 66.6, Who Really Cares, and King Of The Mischievous South vol 1 were recorded from my iPhone to my cd/cassette player via aux and blutooth. However the rest of these pictured were recorded off of a different portable Walkman which was somewhat cheap and I didn't know how to properly record them and they sound extremely off. Might rerecord them someday.

Here are some metal cassettes I picked up at a local music store. I first started out with Deathcrush by Mayhem and I enjoyed it and figured that next time I went, I'd pick up at least 5 metal albums to dip my toes into the water. I actually ended up picking 5 metal CDs and 5 metal cassettes. I'd say my favorite metal cassette from these pics would have have to be Self Loather by Ghost Bath.

Here are my rap cassettes. Most of these I ordered from artists/record labels online merch store but I'd say my favorite cassettes from these have to be the Devon Hendryx cassettes (Dreamcast Summer Songs, JOECHILLWORLD, The Rockwood Escape Plan, and The Ghost ~ Pop Tape.) since they were a graduation gift for myself and were limited time only or Monster Tape Zero by Groovy Kaiju because the artist actually signed the case and the package wrap.

Lastly, here are some miscellaneous cassettes I picked up recently from a goodwill because they caught my eye and I thought they were interesting. If you saw and read through this post, I thank you for your time.

i dont think i ever posted this here but i adore the idea of splicing together bumper stickers

Rest in peace to an underground rapper/producer and veteran of the New York Fire Department, Ka. I listened to Orpheus vs the sirens a while back but I remember falling in love with the production and samples throughout the album and Ka’s raspy vocals as the whole album reminded me of something by MF DOOM. If you have the time, please check out this album, you won’t regret it. As for me, I’m gonna check some of his solo projects he made.

Decided to listen to an album before I try and get some sleep and figured that it’d be best to enjoy fall with some Midwest Emo. Today was Best Buds by Mom Jeans. The best way to describe this album is like going to college to forget about a failed relationship and all the memories that were there but then ending up feeling fear that your new college lover will forget about you. To me, I feel like it was amazing at painting those kinds of pictures with it and found myself somewhat sympathizing with some of the lyrics. Though, there are a few things that I find funny. For example, the lead singer throughout the album sounds like Mordecai from Regular Show and in one song, they use a sample from the show Bob’s burgers. Overall, I loved this album and recommend this album be checked out.

Favorite tracks: Movember, Edward 40hands, *Sobs Quietly*, Poor Boxer Shorts, Remy’s Boyz, Scott Pilgrim vs. My GPA, Vape Nation.

Thought I woke up at 1:50 pm but it was am. Now I gotta find some shit to do.
