1001 Albums Summary

Smack My Bitch Up is a banger, transition at 3:00 is very nice. Breathe's bassline is slick. Some of the samples can come off as harsh in treble area. Diesel Power is good but not enough to make it onto a regular playlist Funky Shit doesn't appeal to me all that much. Serial Thrilla would be better imo if the mixing had vocals louder and the base volume lower. Transition at 3:10ish and the transition into mindfields were classy. Mindfields is the first song that does not feel like it comes in immediately swinging which is a nice change especially after serial thrilla. Narayan is catchy but should be like 3 minutes shorter; last bit of transition into Firestarter is good Firestarter is classic Prodigy to me; love that shit Climbatize feels harsh but fits that 70/80's electro house feel. Bass and beat is very good from 1:30 on; again could probably be shortened by a minute or more on both sides. Fuel My Fire is good but not being added to my regular playlists. Just too much noise/static. Overall mixing on the album is like a 3/5. Not very high dynamic range, tracks seem to blend together even on good headphones and the volume of vocals consistently seems too low for me. Music itself is something I dig. 3/5

5/5 on the mastering/mixing. I fall asleep to this album like once or twice a week.... Don't know why is good but not my favorite. Love the guitar of Seven Years Love the bass line of Cold Cold Heart, Inflections in the voice are very good Guitar and mixing on Feelin' The Same Way is especially good Come away with me is probably the best song on the album Shoot the moon is a 10/10 for me Turn me on is uhhm. Nice. I've Got To See You Again is the first song that feels like it diverges from the style of all of the previous songs, but not in a bad way. Very noire feeling. Painter song lives in my main music playlist. The background guitar is fantastic and the bass is very tasteful. One Flight Down is one that lives in my calmer playlist Nightingale is a very intimate singing experience that really hits the essence of what I consider a Norah Jones song. Kind of a last wind for this album. The Long Day is Over brings that feeling of slowing down as the album comes to an end. I like the vocals but don't as much like the tone of the guitar. Piano in The Nearness Of You is 5/5 Love this album and it is one I will continue to regularly listen to.

Couple classics but all around too nasley and not my taste.

Entirely unrelatable

Lucy in the sky is one I recognized and will make it into my regular playlist. Most of the others are neutral/pass.

Eruption and You Really Got me are ones that I was quite familiar with, but Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love and Jamie's Cryin' are getting added to my regular list.
