Vektroid released a sequel to one of my favorite of her old albums on New Years Eve. First listen I like it, but prefer the original, a bit more noise than I usually care for, but we'll see how I feel on future listens. I was just really excited to see she did this. I need to go through all her patreon release stuff still. Haven't listened to it all since subscribing.
I think this is a really fun one, I like the blend of different styles for this album that still manages to sound cohesive. It's got a bit of a rock vibe on some tracks. I'm looking forward to the rest of this series from Stevia Sphere.
Favorite Track: Surfing on Lava
New job, new energy to update this blog again. First day here and I remembered Stevia Sphere was doing a new project I hadn't caught up on yet and it turned out the first albums came out 2 days ago. I'm a big fan of her work, particularly her pine voc and glaciere stuff. Her new project is The Rainbow series, where she does a series of seven more downtempo albums around a different concept (and presumably color). This is the first one, Music for Slime Creatures, which has a lot of chiptune in it. I'm not amazing at writing about music, one of the reasons I started doing these posts was to try to get better at talking about music, but I've mostly just written a sentence or two.
Still not going to write much about this one, but I will say I like that it has a mix of chiptune and non-chiptune in each track. I feel like I haven't heard much chiptune layered with other stuff where it works well and I think it was done well in this album.
Favorite Track: Synth Gunk
Not a fan of this one. I don't know why my expectations were higher considering I really only loved 0 and liked MEGA. This one is more like MEGA, but idk didn't grab me.
