Pink Moon

Nick Drake

5/5

Amazing, beautiful voice, great guitar. Feels small, intimate, open. Also dark, sad and melancholy.

Me Against The World

2Pac

4/5

I hardly ever listen to rap or hip hop, but I was pleasantly surprised by this album. It was easy to listen to and had a nice flow. The lyrics are interesting, because he sounds very honest and open about his struggles. Lots of clever lines as well.

Fun, crazy, naughty. Not my personal preference, but cool to listen to. Nice version of fever.

I like the general feel of the music, but I get distracted by some of the things she does with her voice. Dragged on a bit for me.

3/5

High energy, some beats I really enjoyed, sometimes a bit too much, especially the voice.

Bayou Country

Creedence Clearwater Revival

4/5

The voices and guitar and drum beats just really please me! Doesn't contain any of my favourites of CCR but still very enjoyable.

Dire Straits

4/5

What a glorious start to the first track! Lovely beats. Relaxing and nice flow.

Californication

Red Hot Chili Peppers

4/5

Good stuff! I particularly enjoy their slower stuff, like Scar Tissue, Otherside, Savior and Road Trippin'.

2Pac

4/5

Kenya

Machito

4/5

What a bucket of fun, this album! Right from Wild Jungle, I had to move along to these smooth sounds.

Darkdancer

Les Rythmes Digitales

1/5

It's... meh? Didn't mind the start of it, but from Disco to Disco onwards, it was hard to enjoy.

Lady In Satin

Billie Holiday

3/5

It's okay, but not really my preferred style. Everything sounded quite alike. Nice to listen to though.

Kala

M.I.A.

2/5

Unique sounds, with what seemed like Bollywood and African influences. It did get a bit tiring. Don't think I would put it on again, but was an interesting listen.

Bug

Dinosaur Jr.

3/5

Pretty cool but also a loooot of noise.

OK Computer

Radiohead

4/5

Very enjoyable. No one song really stood out to me though.

Rhythm Nation 1814

Janet Jackson

3/5

The interludes were an interesting addition. I enjoyed her voice and the dance vibe of the songs. The lyrics were kinda meh and every song could have been about a minute shorter. The last few songs were less enjoyable, I felt the didn't match the vibe.

Fear Of Music

Talking Heads

3/5

Nice, nothing particularly stood out.

New Gold Dream (81/82/83/84)

Simple Minds

3/5

Super 80s, I enjoyed a listen to this album.

The Age Of The Understatement

The Last Shadow Puppets

4/5

It gives me modern spaghetti western vibes. Fun, short songs. First song blew me away, thoroughly enjoyed this album.

New Forms

Roni Size

1/5

It's a no from me. So long... Some nice beats, but I didn't enjoy this album.

Let It Be

The Replacements

4/5

Fun, rock and roll

All Mod Cons

The Jam

4/5

All these songs are fun and catchy!

Can't Buy A Thrill

Steely Dan

5/5

Do it again and Reelin' in the years are just *chef's kiss*. I feel like I should be a bit less shy about handing out 5 star reviews, and you know what, this is a very good start. This album is chill and smooth and versatile and clever and just great.

1999

Prince

4/5

He has such a recognizable style and voice. I feel seduced by Prince a little bit, it really does spiral into some real sexual songs. There's definitely some great songs, though some went on a bit long.

Lam Toro

Baaba Maal

3/5

Interesting sound, also quite modern. Some I liked a bit more, some a bit less, nothing really stood out.

Different Class

Pulp

4/5

Never heard of this band before, but very nice!

Vespertine

Björk

2/5

It's just so weeeeird. The sounds, what she is doing with her voice, not really enjoyable.
