Oncle Jazz

Ok this is a tough one. On one hand I really dug the vibe and I looooved the singer's voice. But on the other, it was submitted by someone who I vehemently disagree with musically. I mean, look at their worst rated artists! What??? Hooow? But it’s not about that, it’s about the album. And I hate to say it, but I agree with the submitter. This was a great album and I’ll listen to their other stuff. I really wanted to hate it though. I do hate the album art though. Ugh.

What if Québécois music was soft and sexy

Firstly, this wins cutest album cover. Just look at them! Just a little guy! As for the music, it was great vibey background stuff, but pulling it into the foreground got it quite samey, and really emphasized how long of an album it was with too little to say across the run time.

Wow, this is a perfect soft work, and I did feel quite transported to the secluded woods.

Saw these guys live, lovely band.

Rock. Jazz

Cool vibe on this one. Thanks for suggesting.

This album is a really chill listen, and I am a big fan of the dream pop vibes, but 70 minutes is quite long. 8/10

7/10. Feels like it could be a soundtrack for Purgatory. But maybe I just need to stop listening to albums after lunch.

Somehow manages to be both dreamy and down to earth all at once.

Jazzy pop? Far too soft and waify for me, but I can appreciate it from afar. 3/5.

I think I get the concept - kind of ultra-smoothed down, edgeless pop. But although I'm assuming the sound is intentional, I had a hard time hearing much of the production as anything other than extremely muddy. The extended sections that sounded uncannily like the cheap department store cassettes I used to own in the dozens as a teen - when they started to wear out - were a particular slog. Still, I was wondering over by several songs.

There is a whole world of breathy synth yacht rock ‘vibes’ music that I don’t know a lot about, thank you

A nice funky groove, albeit a bit one dimensional and I kind of got a little bored towards the end. Sounds nice though.

Solid. Nice choice

This was a very pleasant listening experience. Oh so dreamy, and a lovely voice.

I thought this was prettig cool. Nice laidback and dreamy sound. On a good moment this is really enjoyable.

Deeply grooved and seemingly resistant to the usual methods of choosing deep cuts. Absolutely earns it length as an example of 'teens pop for thinking twenty-somethings. The record's impact remains to develop; Men I Trust with their indie dodge avoid the means of musical brute force.

It is what it is, but I enjoyed it much more than expected

Yes! Been waiting for an excuse to listen to this one. 4 3

Great production, nice relaxed electronic, jazz, funk mix. However not too special.

Listened to a few of this band's tracks before, but was put off largely by what I felt to be a massive wave of overrated hype. Now that the craze has subsided, it was nice to come back with a fresh mindset and finally give this a full listen. These guys are undoubtedly masters of their craft – the instrumentation flows freely and organically, a dynamic contradiction to how difficult this type of music is to write and play well. The songwriting pops, and while the tracks do start to blend together on the back half of this 70-minute sprawl, there's never a dull moment or wrong turn to be had. My only complaint would be that there's too much good music on this LP – it's fun to hear different themes and motifs revisited across the album's span, but cutting some fat and getting this down to a 40-minute runtime would've made it that more punchy and powerful.

Really not for me!

Not a jazz album

Dream pop. Pleasant and ethereal. Reminds me a bit of the gentle feeling induced from those old Cafe del mar mellow Ibiza dance CDs.

Pretty nice. A little long. 3 stars.

Way too long. The album artwork made me think I was going absolutely hate this and that it was going to be garbage. It was not the worst thing I have ever listened to, but I do not think it was really enjoyable. I will round up.
