Ryoma Maeda - Fantastic Suicide (2012)
>electronic
The album title and the cover art here turned me off of this from the start, and the music itself isn't really doing by original opinion any favors. It's bright, chaotic, sugar-coated electropop, infectious but not entirely in a good way. It's catchy, with some admittedly decent songwriting, it's just that the sound itself is so over-the-top and grating I can't even enjoy the most enjoyable songs.

Ancient Astronaut - Ancient Astronaut (2014)
>IDM
I always get really excited when I see "industrial techno" listed as a genre for an album on RYM, and I always get let down. I don't wanna knock the actual industrial techno here, it's actually done quite well, mixing with IDM remiscent of harsh, ICBYD-era Aphex Twin incredibly competently. It's the ambient that really kills this, making for a track that takes up nearly half the album's runtime that's really not good at all. The other five tracks (well, three tracks, really) are pretty good, "B3" just kills any good will I could feasibly have towards this album.

hello friend! good luck with exams, hope you can join us when you're done.
i'd definitely recommend to just start with a chart full of albums you wanna listen to, and tackle it at your own pace. a lot of us are doing the monthly schedules, but that's more of a """nostalgia""" thing, most people here generally just do charts.
okay tell me u at least liked the rip
also yeah, i didn't expect to like Tarot Sport as much as I do, great album.
