With a fresh sound, it's nice to incorporate a variety of styles in the rap genre into my playlist. I don't know much about the artist himself, but he comes off to me as sort of goofy and zany. What does the name Zelooperz even mean? That's especially true when you have a listen to this song off his most recent album.

The instruments that are thrown in have a quirky quality to them. Not only that, but the harmonic movement of the bass line contributes to that too by amusingly spacing out its notes.

Now, with the lyrics themselves, I don't know if I'm interpreting them wrong. The song itself is supposed to be sort of uplifting, but the lyrics that accompany it make me laugh in a good way. The enunciation is hilarious to me, and I seriously can't tell if that's the intention or not. I only got the instrumental but you know how to use the internet right?

GENRE: electronic I regarded FKA Twigs  as a more experimental electronic, modern artist. Today's song feels quite grounded in conventional techniques. Nothing stands out to me as groundbreaking or pushing the boundaries of the genre. I did not expect someone else to be featured on this album either. Unfortunately it doesn't add up to much on the album. In the best case scenario, it adds to the already plain and monotonous sound. Rating: 4/10

Day 309: White Gloves by Khruangbin // 5

GENRE: indie I can't quite my finger on why I find this three-piece so alluring. They've got a style to them that evokes a carefree sensibility. That much can be seen in their song, White Gloves . Apparently it's part their first album to feature vocals, and it's a welcome addition to the canvas. No one instrument stands out any farther and more unique than the others. Each instrument is featured and mixed pretty evenly, giving me a sense of noiselessness and soothing comfort. However, I think part of that plays against their favor. It plays more like a lo-fi ditty than a fully realized song. At about 3 and a half minutes, I would expect a bit more to be fleshed out. Rating: 5/10
