We have entered the Collen Realm. It's interesting how one's biases can alter their perceptions. I was very prepared for something like a more upbeat LSD song at the beginning of song 2, and then the vocals came on and reframed it completely.

The third song is back to form. Like Sato, it inherently has its own strange kind of appeal, but it takes until the last minute, when it actually picks up, for me to get into it at all. That tends to happen a lot with very odd music like this. Without some kind of drive, some kind of unifying force, I don't have anything to grab on to.

alright this is going to be one of those albums that i have to talk about every song individually because they're all so... DNA seems really inspired by Bowie. Really like the, uh, stacatto opening, chorus not as much. Remote Control also has some Bowie feels, but the more chiptuney aspects hamper my enjoyment a bit.

Glitchcore isn't really my favorite, however, I do really like Frums, so parts of Alpha Waves I'm whatever on and parts I enjoy a good bit (basically I like the samples).

I like Frums and cool sampled music. I don't necessarily love 80s pop music aesthetically. I like a lot of Osamu Sato. I don't like a lot of executions of glitchcore. David Bowie is pretty cool. Chiptune is pretty eh. This album is a whole goulash of influences, and the dish averages out to be pretty alright.

Rating: aight/10 (pretend it's zalgoed)
Favorite Song: Propaganda
