[single review] MEG - PRECIOUS

Tracklist:
1. PRECIOUS
2. CANDY
3. PRECIOUS [end of summer mix]
My opinion of MEG, when I first reported on her, was iffy but optimistic, but now is quickly approaching fanboy status. There’s something about her singles that makes everything better regardless of your mood before listening. I find her to be the happy medium between the supercuteness of [...]

[mixtape] TechnoPopLove 2 - tough love

Here’s round two with a slightly modified line up. The first one was an experiment of sorts to see if I can actually make a listenable mixtape. Now that I know that I can, I’ve added a little bit of a theme: tough love. Originally, I named this playlist “aggressive technopop” but Secret Secret isn’t [...]

[mixtape] TechnoPopLove

Here’s something I’ve been planning to do for a LONG time now but I originally wanted to do it live using Traktor and record it all in one take, it’s just I’m not all that great at using it. I took a different route and tried doing it in FLStudio and just played with all [...]
