Physical Releases
[RW現実の世界] by TVVIN_PINEZ_M4LL & danger.ファルコン.1989 (Limited Edition Cassette)
A collaboration album with TVVIN_PINEZ_M4LL & danger.ファルコン.1989. I’m a big fan of TVVIN_PINEZ_M4LL but it’s the first time hearing danger.ファルコン.1989. Each side of this cassette is from one of the artists. Both tracks spanning over different genres and different feels. Here’s the album’s description to give you an idea of what I means “tired tired with nothing tired with everything tired with the world’s weight he had never chosen to bear”
﹝final﹞F A N T A S Y W A V E﹝vii﹞ by Kannibal (Limited Edition Cassette + Digital Download)
I posted about this on the day of it’s release but it surprised me to see it was still available. The limited 50 cassette run is surely to run out as this album is pure magic. If you’re a fan of Final Fantasy you’re not going to want to miss this in your collection.
Digital Releases
Gather Her by Terna Jay
Gather Her is a really beautiful neo-soul vaportrap like album. The first track to take a hold of me was Take Me Please. The original lyrics and vocals was captivating as I didn’t know if it was sampled or original. Then I listened to I Want More to confirm the singer. Terna Jay has an album haunting captivating voice that could be tied to music similair to Joji. Overall this album has too much potential and could use a music video or two to help get Terna Jay‘s name out there. This is amazing. This album right here is exactly why I started MTHU; It feel music in the hearts of amazing people.
Leather Fucking Pants // DMT-753 by EchoDDT
This is what you get when a pop punk kid starts making synthwave. I’m getting a strong early myspace emo music vibe from this. Different from normal DMT but I’m digging it.
“I would like you to all welcome Zac Eisenstein, vocalist/guitarist from the pop punk outfit Man Overboard, to the DMT Tapes FL family. Zac has been interested in elements of vaporwave and synthwave and has #Vaporwave2 original vox to show you all!!!” – DMT
Hit Vibes by SAINT PEPSI
I never thought it’d write about this release but for some reason Saint Pepsi has decided he doesn’t give an F about Pepsi and released Hit Vibes on Bandcamp today. Are we seeing Saint Pepsi fully coming back? New albums, old albums, concerts. It seems so.
