I'm featuring individual songs on this website, but as a listener, I consume albums top to bottom, left to right. I'd encourage you to listen to these albums from the beginning for the full experience.

Elijah Fox · 1:40 · March 2025 Serenity, yet deep. I am reminded that as a person, my complexity is a blessing and a curse, but it is beautiful nonetheless.

The chord progressions in this song stir a movement deep in my soul. When I heard this song for the first time, I was reminded that when you truly connect with a song, it is something you can deeply feel in your body. The light melody sets a stage for you, and then this compelling chord progression rises up, bringing your energy with it. This track seamlessly flows into the next track "Alamosa, CO" in a beautiful way, bring a more somber charge. A masterclass in how a composition can flow.

this album shifts and changes, ebbs and flows. It's the perfect length at just around an hour, so you can use music as your timekeeper.

Medasin · 2:35 · April 2023 Joy, A forward lean into life. Like the bullet train is moving fast, but I can sit back as a passenger and enjoy the speed.

The drums are grass fed all natural in this track, those live drums sound sonically lush, and they always bring an incredible groove. The rising energy and the suspense makes me lean into absorb in full HD the moment I'm experiencing as this plays in my headphones. Then I am launched into action, into progression, with a twinge of joy and gratitude that the moment, the journey, the pursuit could be blessed with such a soundtrack.

This album speaks to progression, it breathes and you can feel the waves of emotion rolling off the wavefom. Constant Motion

Baby Keem · 4:20 · February 2026 Confidence, grit, feelings of power that I am capable of hard work, and that my hard work is something I can stand on.

The song starts with a synth that has edge, like a warning siren that you're about to go into overdrive. The groove of the drums urges movement and Keem's flow encourages you to float around as you move around the world with it playing. The beat switch introduces a little light absurdity while Keem sings his praises. His confidence is contagious.

On this album Keem is flexible, refreshing, and he shows his story and tells it in the right amounts. There's some vulnerable, there's some strength. A future classic rap album.
