SOOOOO starting this off. Today is February 16th. It snowed on Saturday, Sunday was fun, and Monday, because Texas is in no way prepared for a few inches of snow, the power was out all damn day. The power has been out for most of today (I'm writing this cause the power just came on) and to pass time, I've started the WTC discography over limited cell service. In the time between finishing the RINGEX PLASTER discography and now, I've done a few listening projects that I haven't actually accounted for. Firstly, I'm halfway through the Merzbox now (I know, not that impressive considering I've been in the 20s for a WHILE now [but granted, I haven't listened to it in a few weeks because JEEZ that gets boring]), I listened to Goodbye Sol from Nanocyborg Uberholocaust, AMAZING experience (RINGEX was wrong, only their first couple albums are just super slowed down other songs, this album was actually insanely good) including listening to the entire penultimate track, a 7 and a half hour track on its own in one sitting the night before New Years. I'm also currently chunking through some Tsundere Violence compilations too (in fact I might start a listening project of all of Tsundere Violence soon [GOD HELP ME][after WTC of course]). I'm listening to some XoArK as I write this. Now that I speak of it, follow my last.fm, why don't you. While I listened to a bunch of WTC albums, I wrote down thoughts in a notebook, so I'll copy some of those down to here. My thoughts were a bit sparse, because these "albums" are extremely short (even sometimes just singles) I project we'll move through these quite a bit faster than RINGEX PLASTER. Maybe we'll be done within a couple weeks (I'll be laughing at myself when those couple weeks roll by and I'm nowhere close). Anyways I've been writing thoughts track by track on these ones so for this I wrote: "Track 1. Brilliant plunderphonics. 2. also great. seems a lot like V/Vm or RINGEX PLASTER (no wait, NEGATIVLAND (specially Big 10-8 place). very weird samples. Greatly chosen though they all seem the same tambre. 3. A lot more loop focused. Seems like something fun to perform live. Now some nice glitched vocals w/o loops. Ooo, for the first time it's doing a loop from the beginning [of the track] again. Very chaotic. Very well-chosen samples. Chaotic noise from Seinfeld intro. Very noisy at the end here. 7.5/10"
so uh... take that how you will. A lot of these cause of the situation I'm doing it with will seem more like notes and less like reviews. I did put numbers at the end so I could remember rankings though.
Jimmy Cutter - Remove The Centerpiece, Thanks
Total Run Time: 4:38
1. Removal Centerpiece - 4:38
I wrote: "Loops of a piano now. Some nice noise mixed in too. Nice loops. Very very noisy, a lot like fa5q[{]. Nice single. Nothing that special. 6.5/10" so yeah, really just seems like an additional (but a little sub-par) track to in the beginning.

God, this one was a slog to get through, I'm pretty sure it was intentionally terrible. MIDI covers of songs. I wrote: "1. Lame Tubular Bells MIDI. 2. Lame MIDI bell cover of Whip It. 3. So yeah, it seems this is just gonna be annoying MIDI tubular bell covers. Still listenable though because it seems there's a BIT of depth in these recreations. 4. Appreciate the title. This sounds more like Gamelan than tubular bells. 5. Cover of Can't Touch this. The bells are doing drums on this too tho. It loops too much tho. Goes on too long. 6. Audio noticably clips. 7. Chords sound a bit atonal. 8. Jesus how much more of there is this Oh, this is the last one. Annoying album. Intentional. 3/10." (but I might change it to a 4/10 given a later album which I for some reason ranked higher than this even though it was less listenable.
Total Run Time: 1:43
1. Ambient Party - 1:43
Kinda cool, but also nothing special. Only 2 minutes tho so it definitely didn't overstay its welcome. I wrote: "Cool noise. that's about it. 7/10" (Changing to 6.5/10 due to how later releases turned out again).

Despite it being obviously gimmicky, this one actually turned out pretty cool. Wrote: "1. Actually kinda cool despite being obviously gimmicky But yea actually this sounds super cool. Pan Sonic-esque ends weirdly. 2. Only 30 seconds and Reese's puffs meme. Sucks haha. 7/10" Feels right.

3. Last Time Sleeping - 1:05
4. (out) - 0:14
Violence (in) starts it off as one of the better noise only projects on the label so far. But then the rest of the tracks kinda ruin it. I wrote: "Real noisy again & nice like this one quite a bit Ooh, this distorted thing at the end is PERFECT. 2. Also pretty cool, A quiet one. Sounds a bit like Strange HPB CDr. Nothing special though. 3. Drony and a bit interesting. Also nothing special. Probably going to knock the overall rating to a 7 cause the first track was so good. 4. Neat little outro. 7/10." Yep, agree with those still.

A fun compilation of random ass radio segments, willing to bet LLR recorded this alongside doing Ice Cream Truck Around The Corner Of Hell (though I'll make the claim that one's done much better [we'll get to that soon]). I wrote: "1. Probs recorded alongside Ice Cream Truck. 2. Fun. 3. Language I don't speak. 4. Fun. 5. Refer to 3. 6. David Guetta!. 8. Fun. 9. Probs best track on here. 10. Actually this might be. Yeah this is 11. Yea, no real comments anymore. 6.5/10." Still agree with that. Enjoyable for the most part.

4. Next Grap (Death Grap) - 4:17
5. Your Wife Is Now In Venezuela (Clipping Mix) - 4:15
The first two tracks were actually interesting until I got bored and realized this is terrible, the worst one so far (even though I for some reason put it above tubular bells, hence now changing the numbers while typing this). I wrote: "1. Fun, but gimmicky. Vaporwavey. 2. Equal to previous I think it's just songs that sound ULTRA compressed. Mildly interesting at best. 3. Slightly more interesting than the others b/c there's a bit of extra noise in some points. But overall, just sounds like listening to a bad radio. 4. It's a Death Grips song. Cool I guess, not epecially interesting. 5. Also not interesting. Also Death Grips. 4/10" Changed to 3/10 after reevaluation and comparison to tubular bells.

Interesting noise/noise walls. Was cool for a while, still ended up getting boring, but part of that might've been just being bored from the overall power outage. Wrote: "1. Noise again. That's fun. This one actually is pretty ool. I like. 2. More cool harsh noise, I still like. Bassy. Gimmicky, I know. 3. More interesting noise than the last 2 tracks. Sounds like a power drill. 4. Real quiet humminh to start with. Ooo, there was a slight bang [in hindsight, there's a chance I made that up and it was actually a noise from the house]. Yeah, I think this one's just a real quiet drone. 7/10" Agree still.
Total Run Time: 4:18
1. Dog Music - 4:18
Started off thinking it would be terrible, actually turned out to be the best thing I've heard so far somehow. Wrote: "Dog panting crazy. Okay it's dog sound effects. So that's the gimmick then. Literally just dogs. ooh, interesting effects put onto a couple of them. Okay now it's fairly interesting. Haha I quite like it now. 8/10" Definitely recommend.
Total Run Time: 21:42
1. The Journey - 6:37
2. Velocity/Vin - 4:07
3. Step Into The Light - 10:58
Pretty cool, but got boring after a while. Somehow, the longest track was actually the most interesting one. Wrote: "1. A bit drony to start with. Some nice droning chords OK I like this one quite a bit. I have a feeling these will be some of the best releases on the label. 2. These looped chords are more interesting than the previous. nice sea waves. Definitely adds to it. 3. Starts with some interesting noises rather than chords. Quiet noises, slowly & progressively changing. Ooh, now the noises got super glitchy & interesting. Then they do that yet again. Sounds a bit like Autechre. 7.5/10." I'll add that that last track also had some really nice percussion at the end.
Plastic Fuck - A Cover of "Le Freak" by Chic Which Is Incredibly Superior To The Original
Total Run Time: 6:28
1. The Actual Cover - 6:28
Sounds very much like the power drill song from FL Studio Millionaires until halfway through when some noises that remind me of plates come in. "Pretty cool noise single. I like these ceramic sounds around halfway through. 7.5/10" Agreed.
Lo Lid Rocko - laughing japanese people.
Total Run Time: 17:32
1. North? South! East, West. - 8:27
2. Drum Rapid - 9:05
Like Come To Us but worse cause it's just more of the same and more boring. Wrote: "Starts with interesting chords, some nice things done to em. Just some wobbly quiet noise though really, gets a bit boring after aa while. 2. Oo some nice drums on this one. Maybe some semblance of progression. Noises are done to the drums. Pretty coo. Reminiscent of Merzbow's beaty stuff, Except quieter. 6.5/10" Yea, the second track was wildly more interesting than the first in that it didn't make me THAT bored. Just slightly by the end, altho part of that again could very well be power outtage bias.

LLR told me to skip this one because it was terrible apparently. But... this was actually pretty good, idk what he's on. I liked it quite a bit. Also my power came back on during listening (it went back out when I started writing for Ambient Party, but its been here solidly since then). Wrote: "1. Weird ambient nonsense. LLR warned me about this release. This seems a lot like Coronachu again. They added a lot of reverb. Stupid though [haha you can see a bit of bias here towards LLR's caution]. Somehow going by kinda fast despite being 13 minutes. Maybe it was all the trying to write down Japyamese [sidenote: For each of the tracks, I got bored during power outtage and started trying to write down the Japyamese characters the titles are made up with]. Some real crazy wails & stuff tho. Sounds like Death of Rave. 2. Ha, it's slowed down My Red Hot Car with a few added things. 3. It's some pop song with enough reverb that it clips quite a bit. But in a way that I actually like it a lot. 4. Idk, something slowed down I still somehow like it quite a bit though. It's like Homophonics. 5. This sounds like something off of Goodbye Sol. I like it. 6. Some vaporwaved thing over distorted screaming or some song (too distorted to tell, but hilarious). 7. Reese's Puffs meme kinda slowed with a fair bit of noise on top along a couple other things. Really crazy. Ha now I think it's some dubstep song on the top. Hey, a slap bass! Fun song. Goes on a bit long. 8. Starts with some interesting beat. Yea, it's a vaporwaved song. I think this release was the most entertaining one [somehow]. Oh shit, it cut out and now NOISE! Wow, despite the warnings, this was somehow pretty good. 8/10."

Undoubtedly some program (likely an online one) was used to create this (and the track names). Just kinda random ass beats/melodies, kinda fun I guess. 5/10. Listened to this while the power was on so I don't have a track-by-track on-paper review for this one, but even if I did do that, the tracks are too fast and substanceless for me to actually have opinions on each one. Another gimmick I think.

So far this one's nice. Kinda sounds like Pole. Altho I think it also clearly used some program as a gimmick. Still, a more interesting listen than most of these. I like how it's a nice break from the noise, the beats are still interesting, yet monotonous enough for time to pass without boring. Power's on while listening so again, don't wanna write track-by-track reviews for it. Haha, I like the beginning sample of Seventh. Definitely a 6/10 cause it's not really musically good at all, just more interesting because 1. The Power's back on and 2. It's a nice break from all the noise shit.

Haha hilarious. Random, short-ass MIDI shit. I hate it, but it's more listenable than the other two bad ones (actually maybe worse than tubular bells, but definitely better than Coronachu. I should probably lower my number rating for that to 2/10, cause this is a 3/10). But that went by faster than I could type it.

Woo! We've hit the first compilation!!!! And.... I've already heard most of these tracks today. Fuck. From looking at it, the selection of tracks already released is kinda terrible too. Like there were WAY better options from each artist too choose, these options kinda suck. The unreleased Coronachu track is EXACTLY like the other Coronachu tracks, also sucks. The Garbage Lambs track was cool for a bit but then got super boring cause it didn't change at all through its course. Jimmy Cutter and Critual track is pretty cool right now actually. This Critual track is also actually REALLY cool. Quite like it a bit. Aanndddd now the compilation's over. That was terrible, especially since I've heard all these mediocre tracks before (I mean, it DID say it was a sampler, but sheesh, I listened to all 40 minutes, I get to complain). Anyways, yeah this is shit, could've picked WAY better picks from each "artist" (quotes because I'm 90% sure this is the same guy for each track). Looking ahead, from here on out, these albums are gonna start getting a bit longer... Scary. Whatever, here we go! I'm going to sleep now, insane that I got through 22 of these today.

Alright, it's tomorrow, and somehow the power has been on since I did this last night. Weird. I know people near me who currently don't have power. Fun. Anyways--Ooh! I released this one on EMCD too! So yea, I've already heard all of it, but just as we did for the RINGEX PLASTER albums I had already listened to previously, so shall we refuse to skip the already listened WTC albums for sake of review. Well, seeing as I think this is the first release NOT made by the same guy, it's easily the best one so far. I called Dog Music an 8/10, which would make this a relative 10/10, but this in terms of the REST of the world of music, is probably closer to an 8/10. Here's what I said on the EMCD release: "Merzbow-esque sprawls of noise enveloping the listener in an endless drawl. Interspersed with small noise-rock segments, you will be questioning whether you're listening to actual music or if you've gone insane from the fields of static." Yep, that's about right. I'll additionally mention that the release is pretty segmented and you'll hear some really nice and welcome melodies pop out of nowhere. The noise itself that lasts the duration of each track is also quite soothing. I quite like this release a lot. The transition between tracks is also great.

Ackkk, yeah these albums start to get longer as we go along. There are still brilliantly short ones, but wow, there are going to be a lot of slogs. This one at the very least reminds me of id m theft able. I like it so far. Yea this one's nice.
The Piss Artist - Magical Moments
Total Run Time: 17:01
1. Magical Moments 1-8 - 17:01
Apparently a rip of some random found tape. I don't totally know why I'm bothering with this one then. But also it's apparently part 2 so. What was part 1??? [actually looking from it, I think it was supposed to be Critual, but its description's story could easily be made up]. It's fine, it's kinda interesting. Kinda boring too. eugh, this listening project as a whole is getting a bit boring. Why did I decide to do this???? RINGEX PLASTER flashbacks. (After talking with LLR, turns out Radio Shit Method was actually part 1)
Medial Q - Live Assault 30.3.20
Total Run Time: 17:32
1. A1 - 12:54
2. B1 - 4:38
This one's actually super cool. Some nice weird turntable shit you got that nice vinyl crackle throughout, sounds like super weird 7 inch experiments, which I absolutely LOVE. This one's pretty fun. First track was more interesting than the second, it still does get boring after a while.

1. Freeform - 27:39
Coming back after a decent sized break. This one's also apparently a found cassette. Beaty. I do like it a bit, especially for its lofi nature. It's a kinda interesting listen. There's a bunch of really random really hilarious things throughout. It's actually a super cool track despite the description, especially given its lofi nature. Yes, I very much do like this one. Very progressive beats and also very stupid but somehow very interesting. I don't know why I like it so much, but I do. I mean, some cool things ARE done. It has the same energy as some of the MTS AIRMASS Live In My Houses.
Walkman Kulture - Do You Like Cows? (damaged)
Total Run Time: 8:36
1. Do You Like Cows? - 8:36
Yep, it's damaged. Apparently also an old found tape, except the audio for this one is terribly damaged. It's all basically one frequency tapping in seemingly randomly, but VERY occasionally can you hear other things come in. Cool, surprisingly better than a lot of the material here. Oh the last minute is quite a bit clearer.
Total Run Time: 13:58
1. Walkmen - 13:58
It's pretty good. Nothing else really to say, just a cool sound collage. Sounds very much like other things on the label.

4. gisellechapel - 2:39
More Red 'n' Blue beats. Apparently taken from a Minidisc. So less lo-fi. Also nothing special, but worse because beats are given less time to progress into anything since the WHOLE release is only 7 minutes. The last track is the most interesting out of them.
Sleeping Penguin - Shakin' Stevens Goes Nuts & Fucking Dies
Total Run Time: 34:23
1. Part 1 - 17:57
2. Part 2 - 16:26
Another day, another dollar. It's Thursday now, my power somehow is still constant (despite still knowing some people without it) but at the very least I'm thankful for ours. House has been running solidly again. Coming back from this, this album's definitely a lot less fatiguing than it would've been. Probably still need to accurately criticize it though. It's just kinda... more of the same type of shit as Walkman Kulture (I mean this is in the found tape series so i guess that's expeceted or whatever). It's not anything special really. Although some of these manipulated pop samples do actually get a bit interesting over the course of it.
Walkman Kulture - Fucked-Down Tape Destructive Melange
Total Run Time: 13:00
1. Melange - 13:00
Doing this on FRIDAY now (yeah, I know, insane that I only got through one of these yesterday). This is DEFINITELY one of the more interesting Walkman Kulture (and tape remaster series) projects. Probably because there's multiple tracks going on at once and a lot of sensory rather than just annoying cutting in and out static forever. It's most interesting at the beginning, the section in the middle is a bit less interesting because it ends up becoming people talking over each other rather than music collage.

8. Casio Melodramatics - 5:36
Another tape remaster series. Kinda boring beats. I'd say the first tracks were more interesting, but that would just be because I didn't hear them for long enough yet. Worse than Freeform, better than Super Team X. Track 6, despite being under a minute, was one of my favorite moments. Whish there was more stuff like that here. I like how track 7 slows down at the end. (After listening to it all, the second half is actually the far more interesting half).

So uh... I don't really know what to expect from this. And listening to the first track... I can't tell if I like it or not. Definitely the most entertaining out of the first 37 though... which means.... I'm basically listening to RINGEX PLASTER again. Fun. I actually like the experience. The RINGEX PLASTER discography was amazingly fun. Track one is noise, then crazy frog over Rick & Morty. This is just the weirdest damn sound collage ever. I mean, it sounds EXACTLY like RINGEX PLASTER. This second track is actually super cool. Aandd... just got word from LLR that this is just multiple Discord bots playing over each other. Well... Doesn't change the fact that it's easily the most entertaining. Which,,,,, really doesn't make sense because of the track Up Yer Head where they're randomly banging on MIDI keyboards (probs software, but still, that was on a Discord bot?). Really doesn't seem like it for a LOT of these samples tho. But yea this is all basically some really crazy DJ mix, but I HAVE to give a huge level of props for managing to successfully use Discord bots as an instrument. Aaaanannd more word from LLR that apparently the MIDI keyboards were a DJ DanzoBeanz track. This album is too fucking insane to be Discord bots, it's unbelievable! Yeah, so it's basically RINGEX PLASTER I suppose in this case. Also I can hear some very faint christtt. This is just... It shouldn't be a masterpiece but it is!!!!! I'm having such a hard time wrapping my head around this, and this is AFTER coming from the RINGEX PLASTER discography review! Yea, this is like listening to RINGEX PLASTER for the first time again. Why is christtt slightly sped up. Are these the original samples? Nah I remember them being slightly different to this, plus they follow the same progression as on no lives matter. I think... Ha, the guy's interet freezes at 8:36 on the second to last track. Oh my God, they're literaly playing the spectrogram song from Songs About My Cats. This is amazing! But it shouldn't be! And I already said that! Whatever, now I'm actually excited for the other Vrothers albums (which I wasn't at first because of their length).

Saturday, February 20th. Listening to this while waiting for Favicon Vol.2 (which at the time of writing this, released earlier today) to download. Making it through all of these is actually going to be a challenge. And of course, I'm going to listen to them as they continue to come out as well (same with RINGEX PLASTER, but they haven't released anything since last December). Off the bat, Death O-No (Version 2) doesn't seem that different but right when it gets to Fuckwit (Version 2) it starts to REALLY change. I think they just kinda tried to perform it again with the same-ish set of samples (of course there are some new ones, and some of the old ones are in different places). Then, at Fuckwit (Version 2, Part 2) it's really just COMPLETELY different samples. But again, like version 1, the album's just one long performance again. It seems to be just as good though. Ha, it's the DanzoBeanz MIDI again. There's just so much random shit that appears and makes me happy, this whole project is hilariously amazing. It's pretty much exactly the same quality as the previous one, but since it's just again, I'll rate it lower.

THIS IS STILL DISCORD BOTS (apparently everything under the Vrothers name is). This is still somehow really good. Kind of ambient themed this time. Holy shit, Fenn O'Berg sample. This release is just kinda more of the Vrothers stuff, entertaining as hell, but nothing THAT special. This one's also a bit more serious (if you could even use that word to describe Vrothers) than the others though. At some points this feels more like a weird take on a DJ mix than anything. One thing interesting is inverse to RINGEX PLASTER, despite this being a more "serious" one, I think the others are actually better. Or at least Version 1 is. The samples get fairly sparse near the end.

Ack, finally a break from Vrothers. Seems to be a LOT more focused on ambience and glitch than traditional vaporwave. (which is most definitely a good thing). And JESUS, I need to turn my headphones down for these. WHY THE FUCK IS THE REESES PUFFS MEME IN HERE AGAIN. Why does WTC keep doing that, I mean I haven't heard it in a weirdly long time, so why is it here again? This album's actually kinda really good. It was apparently a start to the moskar sublabel, but no other releases have come out on it, so there's a good chance that was a joke.

Basically same story as the other Vrothers stuff. The gimmick's getting a little old. This is still very entertaining, but it's starting to feel more like nothing. The taste is getting stale. This is the last Vrothers album for a while though (and by a while, I mean there's only 3 other things in between this and the next one, and they're all very short). I guess all I have to say after this: There's 5 of these left, God help me.

God damnit, another Vrothers album. These are probably more fun to make than to listen to. Starts with Stone in Focus over Death Grips lyrics funnily enough. Some segments of this feel a bit more sparse and like a bad DJ mix. Some segments are better than any other Vrothers material.

February 27th, I haven't listened to WTC in about a week, and we're getting back into this again. Alright. So far, this album is actually AMAZING. Some really entertaining glitch music that sometimes skitters close to breakcore and has some of the best chosen and used samples I've seen in WTC's catalog. A LOT more fresh and interesting than most of the glitch music here, and a nice refresher. Also: I've decided that after this, instead of doing ALL of Tsundere Violence, I'll just go through the compilations. Yeah, I'll do that RIGHT after WTC.

Philaru is just as bad as the rest of the Philaru shit. The Critual track is pretty cool. The Rothko & Me track is eh. Ruff Killah track was kinda cool but got a bit boring. The UltraHyperRoboEroticFuckWad Orchestra like ususal was too short to form any real opinions on. Tubular bells were tubular bells. Also a terrible compilation, but more points than the other one for the afformentioned reasons.

WTC catalog don't get me wrong has some definitely AMAZING moments (especially as of late), but just SO much of it is devoted to shit like this. Can't wait to start the Tsundere Violence Compilatons. This one actually does have a more interesting choice of samples than the last one though. Ends weirdly.

A weird one, considering it's really just one track split into 30 miniscule parts. Fairly entertaining, but fairly average Walkman Kulture release aside from that. Absolutely rushing to enter everything on OpenScrobbler for this one. Also I was thinking about how much music I have downloaded. Then I remembered I have ALL of WXAXRXP downloaded (also an idea for a listening project at some point) and I realized... I could fit all of it on a DVD. So I'm burning it to DVDr now

So before going into this, let me just state that I have heard a LOT of good things about Family Dollar. Do NOT fail me now... Starting the album... So. What the fuck is this? This is basically RINGEX PLASTER. I mean... like it's pretty much a RINGEX PLASTER album, this is insane. This is also weirdly kind of like Vrothers, except it replicates the fucking chaos of the first one. But like, I don't LOVE it as much... but it's just so God damn weird. I mean, it started with fucking Big Chungus. AND WHAT THE FUCK THIS IS THE PONY SONG SAMPLE THAT RINGEX PLASTER LOOPED FOR 20 MINUTES THIS IS LITERALLY FUCKING RINGEX PLASTER HOW DID THEY DO THIS WHAT. Wait shit, RINGEX PLASTER JUST released something.... Ooh, I have to listening project this one haha. Okay it's like many hours haha of course it fucking is that's going to be entertaining. When should I do it...? Yeah so this is weird, but like I'm also VERY distracted by new RINGEX. I think I'll start that on Friday. Okay, yeah, I love this album, it's great. Like Ditigal Gonnhorea, but better. (Also, apparently Family Dollar ARE the Vrothers guys)

Hey, it's this one! I'm on this one! Is it conceited if I rank one I was on higher? I mean, we did a damn good job at it so... I'll have to definitely recommend it of course. I remember working on this one was so fun. Jojo found this website that had like every radio station ever and we spent a good couple days sampling the best shit we could find and I spent the whole of those two days gathering those samples and arranging this masterpiece. It's perfect I think, I HAVE to recommend it. I mean we compiled THE best sounds and it was just mmmmmmm. I love this one. Maybe buy the CD of it?? I have a lot of them left (none sold yet lol). Also, this is the second album in the series of the Venetian Snares Discord server albums, the first being Deep Sea Squeeze Tree from Fucking Morons, and the third being Gamer Time from Various Artists. RETURN TO SENDER might also count as one, but that was also just a me and Jojo collab... but we WERE doing it publicly on the Discord so... idk, count it if you want. I mean this series of projects is awesome too, and SO varying in quality. Deep Sea Squeeze Tree is the fucking worst in the best way possible, this album is a fucking masterpiece, Gamer Time is also the worst, but it does a better job at being that, and RETURN TO SENDER is THE ULTIMATE RAW DATA ALBUM. Seriously, I firmly believe no mainly raw-data glitch album will surpass RTS. No, but yeah, this is still amazing.

The last song is weird and kind of interesting but not in a good way, but that was definitely intentional. Actually the very ending of this is pretty cool. Would make recommended if it was all like this.

Alright, this is the last Vrothers album. But it's also the longest one, so damn. Well, we'll have to get through it. Starts out with Mouse On Mars. I think this first song kinda captures something weird about Vrothers. Despite Digital Gonhorrea being a reissue of NOT their first album, every album they put on WTC gets increasingly less chaotic IN ORDER. What made Digital Gonhorrea so good was the fucking chaos. Sure the rest of these are made the same way, but by the end they actually DO seem like Discord bots whereas Digital Gonhorrea is still somewhat magical. Fucking All I Want For Christmas Is You randomly in there haha. I think that's some CD ad maybe? anyways, CD ads are actually perfect for this shit, you know the type of copy-paste compilation CD TV ads I'm talking about? Yeah those would be perfect if that wasn't already one. Alright, by the second half of this, it actually does start to get quite a bit chaotic and I like it a bit now. Mostly because of the fucking cartoon beatbox battle though, like seriously what the fuck! This is just hilarious. The second half of this album gets pretty good I have to say. Apparently Digital Gonorrhea was 4 people and the rest were 2 or 3 so I guess my point about chaos actually has validity.

I mean, the purpose for this now is to give a comprehensive list of what out of the WTC catalog is worth listening to because I would NOT recommend going through it. The Godbin side of this seems to be MIDI randomness with a bit of reverb. It should be terrible, but it's surprisingly listenable. The Glenmusik side is fairly entertaining.

The third installment of the Venetian Snares Discord Server albums! A lot of these tracks were memes AND this was back when we all made pretty shit music. But listening back, a lot of these songs actually do hold up quite a bit, especially this fucking John Beatsman track, like that one's solid. This contains music from back when FLASH CONDUCT didn't exist and he was ARANXTA YAROS and he tried and failed to be RINGEX PLASTER. I remember when he did a one-off compilation too, it was basically the same quality as another Gamer Time haha. Xerbie's glitch tracks on this were still a bit solid though somehow. This Jimmy Cutter track is an average one though. Also my MTS AIRMASS track I put on here I made super long because I had assumed the others would also do that, but I ended up taking over half the release haha. It's Ableton Noise, not really much special, but I did actually manage to make it sound fairly interesting and pleasant. Also I do really like what I did with the end of this track.

I have a strong suspicion this one is just a Vrothers album in disguise. Both because LLR let me know Family Dollar are mostly the same guys as Vrothers and I CAN HEAR THE GOD DAMN DISCORD SOUND. But I do especially like the Chaos of this, so even if it IS another Vrothers album, I mean, it's most definitely one of the good ones. It has that special chaotic energy to it. I mean, I'm pretty surprised it's a somewhat good release.

I didn't really know what to expect from this. Gov.

I don't really know what I think about this side of the album, it's just extremely strange, and kind of good in that way? Well, this third track is actually super good, no ambiguous feelings about that one. The Demvr side was absolutely not anything I was interested in however. I can respect the skill probably taken to make it, it was in fact quite quality, I was just not into it at all. Grindcore ish stuff I suppose.

Apparently a sound collage of most of the other 99 WTC releases (this is WTC100). Already off the bat I hear a bunch of familiar sounds. This is quite a nice concept actually, I expect greatness. Yeah, this is the perfect summation of WTC's catalog before it. And with this, here is a moment to reflect. I would not recommend anyone do this listening project. It has way too much mediocrity, the RINGEX PLASTER one would be a much more fun use of your time. The good moments of this catalog are still great though, I suppose the purpose of this now is that everything that goes in the Definitely Recommended section are must-listens for anyone wanting to get into WTC. And with WTC's catalog number change and new quality control, we're probably going to be getting a lot more of these since at this point (this point in time, not this point in the catalog) we can say goodbye to troll albums. Although this album sums up WTC perfectly, it also takes in a bit of its mediocrity. Throughout it, it's just kinda eh, it loses its novelty after a while. But this might be a must-listen for overview purposes.

Why are these Sam Fauchon things singles? They were included on Long Distance Dork Control which is also a WTC so I mean I'm just going to be hearing these songs again. For those reasons, I'll have to refrain from putting these singles in recommended (and because I already know the real album might top the list). That being said, this is one of my favorite cuts from the album.

So DanzoBeanz is a troll artist of course. So get ready for a fucking 70 minute troll album. And it's all mashups. Some are done surprisingly well, and it's actually entertaining. But I mean, it's still pretty terrible. But like, in a good way, ya know? Surprisingly entertaining despite being objectively bad. I think any song that mentions Puffs is Reese's Puffs. Anyways, fuck this album. Lost its novelty interest after like 10 minutes. The Alternate Universe Where Chad Kroeger Is Blind is actually hilarious though.

The last track's actually pretty fun, and with it being about half the release, it more than makes up for the mess of the previous tracks (which are still a FUN mess keep in mind). This was a hilarious release, for the last track alone it will be moved from the Terrible tier to the Good tier.

I had to restart my computer after the first track yesterday cause it was acting all awry. Apparently the new Windows update which was forced onto it fucking sucks and bricks some peoples computers (didn't happen to me but it took like an hour to restart [which included the multiple times I restarted cause it was perpetually stuck on a loading screen and I had to reset the process]). I managed to get it on, but it still kinda sucks (not AS bad as it was before but things still randomly go to "Not Responding" every couple minutes. Anyways, as a result of my restarting I lost the review of this album (or at least just the first track since I didn't get anywhere close to listening to all of it). Anyways, what I thought of it was it reminded me of some of my favorite RINGEX PLASTER moments. Has a very similar atmosphere to Homophonics. This could very well top the list if the rest of the album continues like this (which I was like 20 minutes behind where I am now and the quality has been consistent). Also this edit of Here Comes The Sun is genius. Yeah, but this albumm is crazy good, just full of incredible sounds. Definitely has the same tambre as a WTC album though, it absooolutely fits the catalog and it's amazing. I think it tops the list.

Well here it is: The last Family Dollar album (on WTC that is). I can't believe I've listened to most of these already. I mean this one's basically a Vrothers album, just without the Discord. Doesn't totally sound like anything special. Although it is a fairly good one at that. Actually the second half of this third track is really good, you got a bunch of crazy good samples over each other. Beautiful. From there the album greatly picks up, we have some fantastic samples consistently after. Pretty nice sound collage, I didn't think it would be that good but after the first couple tracks it proved to be one of the better Family Dollar albums.

Finally, I get to listen to this thing. I'd been saving it for the right timing, and what better timing than reaching it chronologically within the WTC catalog itself? clutrrglych's track was an awesome bit of fun. pxnxpxb's track stands out as a wonderful Christmas-themed mashup. Mucoid's track is weird but actually really cool. Ideal Suspect's track is extremely fun (man, it really seems everyone put their all into this so far). Smiffmaff's track is also a huge standout as a beautiful noise rock track about "releasing the bees" (as the sample states). Yeah I think this might top the list actually (insanely weird, but awesome, that we get three list-topping albums in a row! I have a feeling that will end here because the next album is from DJ DanzoBeanz). God King Josiah's song is kinda terrible, but it's oddly mastered really well, and given that he's one of Vrothers, I think it's on purpose, and it's kinda hilarious. But the synth despite being objectively terrible has a REALLY nice tambre that makes it sound almost good? It was mastered in a way in which the notes mushed together to sound just a BIT like Oversteps. Lo Lid Rocko and the Innocent Cunt's track is more of that general WTC radio fuckery BUT it was amped up in quality like 30 times for this one, because this is by FAR the best radio fuckery track LLR has ever done (well, I think, I haven't heard the ones that appear chronologically after this release) it is insanely chaotic and noisy and perfect, it's awesome (I'm going to be using that word a lot during this review apparently). OOh, and something that sounds like it was from the radio website we used for Ice Cream Truck! And I'll take a break here since I have to go somewhere, fitting that it's right on my track. This Your Favorite Meat Department song sounds like an early version of a song off Human Derived Music. Sam Fauchon sounded like Sam Fauchon. XoArK's track was a highlight just for being insanely good. Demvr's track felt like an interesting transition, but the drone was quite welcome and fit the compilation quite well. scenes_recorder's track was batshit insane. Xinovah's track felt like it went on a bit long to be honest, while it was cool for a while. Petrol People's track also managed to sound a bit like a moment of bliss on Oversteps too! Mucoid's next track was super jamming and ended WAY too soon. Polyscia's track was fun. DaznoBeanz' track even managed to be awesome (an interesting, but very welcome surprise). Sam Fauchon's next track was interesting in that it didn't actually sound like a Sam Fauchon track at all, pretty much just a weird interlude. Xinovah's second track was another highlight for being insanely good. Then my second track. And this last track was DEFINITELY just a compilation of screwing around on websdr (the website with every radio station used to make Ice Cream Truck). Not a very good track, but seeing as it was the ending, it felt more like an outro than a serious part of the album for consideration, and in those regards it served its purpose well. Overall, this compilation managed to be an amazing one with an extremely versatile sound, completely defining the label (well, besides its mediocrity) and setting a precendent for the new era and catalog number change as of a couple weeks ago. Definitely the top of the list!

First track doesn't really lock me in to begin with, kind of turns me off actually. But the ending is actually perfect. Interesting beginning. The second track is wonderfully magical, loud, bombastic drones that swell into beautiful symphonies. Definitely much better than the first track, picks up in terms of quality where the ending of it left off. The third track is kind of good. Not really that special, but somewhat interesting for its duration. The fourth track is pretty terrible. Slowed down rap/trap with minimal bitcrush/phaser effects (I think), makes for an annoying experience more than anything. The last couple minutes are pretty nice though, sadly not making up for a quite uninteresting (and even at some points, annoying) track, not at all warranting its length of nearly 30 minutes. This album's already so long and feels like it's 3 times as long as it really is. Fifth track is good, but not especially interesting. Sixth track is okay. Meanders a lot, certainly not bad, but not very good either. Jeez, last track starts off LOUD. But by the sounds of it, it might end up being the best track here. Yeah, easily. Overall eh album with some good moments and some bad moments.

First track is extremely noisy! Not annoying like the other punished aurodog album, actually quite entertaining. The part that distorts rap music actually does it in a super cool way rather than an annoying way! That kinda ends with the second, notably lazy track, doesn't really consist of much, seems a lot closer to noisy vaporwave than anything. And the third track brings the annoying distortion rap back. Overall, it's an eh album, some great moments some terrible moments, really just a shorter (but still too long) version of oath of silence.

But it's absolutely objectively terrible. And it runs a bit long (but actually doesn't manage to get particularly fatiguing). I'll put it in the good category since I actually managed to get a fair bit of enjoyment out of it, certainly a lot more than all the shit in the mediocre category. Also this last track's actually somewhat interesting on its own, weird electronic thing, kinda in the vein of vaporwave, but actually varies over the course of its 10 minutes in an interesting way.

So unlike what was suggested, I'm not going to review EACH of these tracks because some of them are too just "this is a sound" to do that with, I feel like I would say the same "so yeah, this is pretty cool" for all of them. Also doesn't help that the CD I'm playing off of has 15 second long tracks which are combinations of sets of 5. And also to mention, I do have the CDr of this, it's fabulous. Was included The End of Evangelion soundtrack (I think it's a soundtrack) as a bonus CDr haha. But yeah, it's over now, and damn that was really cool. Crazy dense shit it was awesome, like a 65 person song. Time to get through the CD bonus tracks (which includes like 10 minutes of silence). Bonus tracks include some electronic thing that clearly originated from a VERY damaged CDr. Fun. Then some weird thing about Mike Mulligan. It's pretty cool. Last bonus track is a short loop. Neat little additions.

The first in WTC's catalog number change (apparently signifying a new change that releases are much more quality now). Odd vaporwave-esque loops of cut-up, distorted, and shifted classic rock that strech for a couple minutes each until they suddenly transition into something else. There are some really interesting sounds here and there, but it does certainly tend to get boring for a while until an especially resonant sound comes in. This will go somewhere within the good category.

First track starts with an odd drone, slowly, but suddenly shifts into some crazy glitch vocals which were actually really cool! The second track is weird chops and selections from slowed-down Death Grips Guillotine, a much weaker track. 3rd track is a bit of a step up from that with some weird distorted & slow beat that progressively gets faster. Fourth track is odd but kinda cool. Fifth is slowed-down raw data with some other cool noises applied. These all seem like Audacity tracks, not to say that they aren't good, but they aren't especially good, ya know? Also not to say that Audacity music CAN'T be good, this just SOUNDS like Audacity music. In order for Audacity music to be really good, it has to not sound like Audacity music, ya know? I think the last track is definitely the most interesting out of them for having such an array of crazy noises. AND WITH THAT THE LISTENING PROJECT IS COMPLETE (well, for now, until WTC releases something else). I would absolutely not recommend doing this, WTC just has SO much shit. But do listen to everything in the recommended category, that was probably the goal of this, just to create a list of what you should and shouldn't listen to from this thing. But there we go! I think the next one is Tsundere Violence compilations and I'll chunk through Kevin Drumm while I'm doing homework, so those will probably be both at the same time, but I'll probably finish the TV compilations way before I finish Kevin Drumm's bandcamp. Thanks for sticking with these.

Jeez, it's been a while (I mean only a couple months or so, but still). I've had to take a break from WTC as I was starting to get PTST (plus I had to do finals and shit and I was a bit more interested in Tsundere Violence and Kevin Drumm [both of which are still ongoing]). At the time of this, I've released another project on WTC, WTC has started making CDrs for all their releases, and WTC has since deleted a HUGE chunk of their albums (some of which I included on the definitely recommended section oddly enough). Actually I have to save this again and see if the images still even load (which they do, props to Bandcamp for saving all of those). This was a really nice drone release, despite the name implying an obvious joke. It got into some noisy territory, but felt very warm and resonant. One of my favorites of the new stuff.

Hey, this is something I partially did (I was Televangelist, new noise alias I'm trying out). I hadn't actually heard kowloon's track before this, the split was done extremely loosely and impromptu. It loops quite a bit, and though it does change subtly throughout, it doesn't really go anywhere. However, the loop that does take place is REALLY nice and tha 9 minutes actually go by kinda fast. My side was two guitar improv recordings layered over each other. I kind of like it, not my best improv work but pretty decent. This release overall is good, but not great.

And without further adieu (or however you spell it), I'll be starting it now. --- That was super cool, I wouldn't consider it the best here, but it was like TABLOID TV with a lot better moments. I found a lot of moments reminded me of the Ice Cream Truck collab I did. Pretty good, I can understand a bit of the hype, but not all of it.

1. KATAJUNGLE MEGAMIX - 17:44
Well... It has been quite a long time since I worked on the listening project. Since May
28th, 2021 (I'm guessing that's when I was last here since that's when shamanic princess was released (which I
actually have a CDr of, thanks hiruya for making that)), 19 clyde albums have released as well as 6 singles on a
sublabel that happened on the first of this year (today's Saturday, January 15th btw). Anyways, right now, I'm just
finishing up listening to the 9 hour Diabarha album (Confession of Lazarus) and it's actually damn good. Also I
should mention that I've had the mini CDr of this release for a while now, but never got around to actually listening
through (mostly cause it's just a DJ mix and I'm not really that excited for it). Yeah this is just a DJ mix, but
instead of transitions, the dude just says something stupid like "Did you hear about that new DJ BANANA PEEL
record?" through a built in laptop mic, then hard cut to the next track. So a bad DJ mix at that. Also the chosen
tracks aren't that good, just like some of the breakcore tracks on my daily soundcloud playlists that I'd probably
forget to pay attention to cause they aren't very interesting.

Hey, here's something I made! There was supposed to be a joke going that I wouldn't reveal
this as an alias of mine, but for the sake of categorization, it's now fully exhibitioned on my website like the
little slut it is. Ok, maybe I sound too much like a pretentious ass about his art. This was one of the first no
input mixer jams I did. I quite like it, but I'm me, so I might be a little biased. Also, while this is mainly no
input, I put actual inputs into the no input feedback loop, so I got some really crazy sounds through this using an
effects rack, my own phone, and a piano, so it ends up sounding a little less like no input, and a full fledged noise
album. I don't know, it was fun! And Backstreet Boys at the end (this is a bit of foreshadowing for the MTS AIRMASS
universe). Maybe it goes on a bit too long but whatever.

Some ultra lo-fi noise made by the man himself, the label dude with a thousand names (though
he was using Giraffe People for a while). That's about it, it's pretty good, but it's just lofi noise, I remember
this originally being a cassette only release that was super poorly dubbed onto a few due to his shitty cassette
deck. This result caused him to stop making WTC tapes, I don't remember if he ever fixed it or not.

Sometimes I'm torn with what to think of King Tiger's material. Sometimes it's awesome
breakbeat stuff that has this sound that nobody else even compares to, but sometimes it sorta loops the same thing
for a minute straight then goes into another unpolished loop. And King Tiger's a great friend of mine, but I care a
LOT about making sure these reviews aren't really biased, so I just have to tell it like it is. Like 90% of King
Tiger songs sound basically the same, but when he hits, he really does hit (Magic Wood is a DAMN hit, but Melted
Graphite 2 kinda sucks). He produces these songs at like ultra light speed, but sometimes it's really easy to tell
how fast he made a track. Sometimes I wish he experimented with different noises (Magic Wood works so well cause it's
a lot of noisier shit that's different to what he's done before). His music has recently been getting noticeably
better and more experimental, if you're reading this King Tiger, I want more of the experimental shit!!! (I don't
mean to infringe upon artistic expression, I'm just saying what I personally would like to hear more of, and less of
the samey amen loops [Nearly every track on the Stone EP had like the exact same beat, that's one of my least
favorite KT releases, but I digress) The Hmm era is gone now, it's time to put these crazy noises you've
accumulated into breakbeats, enough with the same amen
loop! Also polish tracks more, they could sound so much better (again using Magic Wood as an example here, it
sounds a bit more polished). Xaviermix in this case is a track that does a little bit of both what Melted Graphite
2 does and what Magic Wood does. So what I mean is at the beginning it sounds like your average KT track and
honestly fools you into thinking it's gonna suck for a bit, but then it somehow completely works, especially with
the use of the main sample, then you just realize how nice this track actually is. A few of these tracks actually
appeared on Not Floating Guy, interesting... Damn, this actually has quite a few unique tracks, track 4's a real
interesting noise thing. Alright and 5 kinda sucks too, this was a cut from the Stone EP, probably my least
favorite KT release I've heard just cause nearly every track on it is the same and they all loop into oblivion
(hey, this one's doing that thing where it loops into oblivion). Then it changes like ten seconds before it's over.
Decent EP, two bad tracks and three great tracks. (This is one of those classic "MTS AIRMASS is being real with
you despite not wanting to" moments).

Well, Giraffe People was real excited about this release. It's a collaborative effort between
him and Deep Fried Ice, so I guess that makes sense, and Cathode Ray Mission went on to produce a few more albums
too. Honestly, just seems like an average noise album, I really don't get what's extra special about this release
other than its conception. Every track is focused on one effect and doesn't really change, just moves on to the next
track. Track 6 is great. That's about it

just no blank tapes, so those might be back soon. This release is lofi noise, radio stuff and no input mixer. Pretty
good, mostly stuff in the style of the old school WTC catalog (nice to go back to that, a little nostalgic tbh). The
second track does go through this super interesting loop.

Okay, so I must be remembering something wrong in the WTC official timeline, because this
release had tapes too??
Alright, so when I wrote that, I listened to it, but it was very much in the background and I didn't really write
anything about it and now it's about a week later [FRIDAY, January 21st, 2022] and I forgot what most of it sounded
like. I remember general plunderphonics, although it was pretty good and pretty high quality and had orchestral
samples. I guess I'll be relistening now.
Alright, so this is quite sample-heavy, but makes a lot of crazy noises using these spastic effects on top of
samples. A lot of tape and vinyl sounding stuff, mostly just higher quality sample-based noise, both sides sound
pretty similar, though vay's side is considerably noisier. Also it's the one with a few orchestra samples. A lot
more distortion effects than the beat repeat and *chorus (* I'm guessing) applied to Eyerolls' side.

Hey, a breakcore EP! Funny story behind this one actually, it got sent to me as a demo on
EMCD, so I've already listened to this. I told them it was great, but it had to be at least 30 minutes to get a
pressing. They never got back to me and like the next day I saw this come up on WTC. I don't even know who they are,
I just got the demo by email, but it was funny. Speaking of, shit I still forgot to email Segue back. That'll happen
later if you're reading this man (sorry things have taken so long, everything's just being total piss right now). I
remember this being great, but listening again, this is a pretty average atmospheric breakcore release that doesn't
actually do
much interesting and loops quite a bit. I guess my tastes have changed and I'm starting to realize both how simple
and complex breakcore can be (the complex is favorable, and quite noticable). You can really easily pick up on the
patterns in this stuff now, and is that really breakcore anymore? Idk, but it has the amen break. The last track
however is quite interesting and unique, a weird experimental trip hop track with a text to speech preface thing?
It's actually pretty good, the IDM here is on point. Doesn't make the whole EP worth it, but that track is
nice.

this. Plunderphonics breakcore, so it's cool. Also really fucking short (make longer albums man). Actually maybe this
isn't breakcore, just plunderphonics beats. Anyways, it's pretty damn cool, the samples work so well and this is
super entertaining. Only 8 minutes though. Super ADHD album without being full on mashcore, so it's an interesting
case. Also, while the individual tracks are quite entertaining, the album doesn't really go anywhere over the course

a much more psychedelic touch and thus I actually do quite like it. Lots of clipping though. 3's a noise track,
sounds a bit like Merzbow with the use of bird sounds. 4's also a pretty good noise track, slightly melodic and with
a lot of bass (the instrument, not too much deep sounds). Track 5 is some ambience behind a japanese (at least I
think it's japanese) speech. No, I don't know why the track is called pedo. Overall good not great.

Well, I have a good feeling about this one. iirc, it's noise breakcore. Let's find out. Hey
it is! Not really "noise" breakcore, more just breakcore with chiptune! It's pretty great! Oh wait, a couple of these
tracks are actually pretty damn noisy. So this was quite the fantastic album and I wanted to love it so bad, but the
beats just don't flow like I'd like them to. Also a lot of the melodies don't do much for me. But the noise was
amazing, and the effort in this direction which you rarely see from WTC was quite the entertaining diversion.
Definitely recommended, but could be better.

Well, this one's over 2 hours, making it the THIRD longest album WTC has to offer. And it's a
weird noise album, so that's cool. First track sounds pretty much exactly like a Merzbow track, so it's alright.
Second track has more subtle noises, but it's not too interesting. Third track is where things start getting unique.
You got this like square wave going on, then all these kick drums and sine wave laser beam zaps, it's so cool. This
track almost sounds like id m theft able, but a bit more fluid. You know what it reminds me of, his track Pond
Eyes. Rest of the album is just Merzbow-esque noise tracks (not using that lightly, these do sound exactly like
mid-period Merzbow). Track 8 gets super psychedelic, and actually I think I'm starting to realize that this thing
is pretty damn high quality. Ooh, but then it does this thing near the end where it sorta collapses in on itself
and is just this frantic, clipping mess. Track 10 is a real interesting one, with a lot of skittering percussion
on top of King Crimson-esque guitars (still a noise track, but with this sort of tambre that reminds me of
Discipline). It all culminates in this reverb-heavy absolute soundscape that's really unlike anything I've ever
heard (maybe the more sparse parts of Everywhere At The End Of Time Stage 4, but it's a lot more clear). Last
track is a lot more sample heavy with a few clear segments. This albums awesome, gonna go in the definitely
recommended tier. An amazing fully fleshed out noise album, something you rarely get to hear from a lot of the low
effort improvisational noise outputs as of late. Fantastic work.

This album artwork's quality is such a massive contradiction to the music contained here.
It's extremely lofi (possibly the most this label has ever gotten) tape samples. Most of them unedited and a mere
sequence of a few samples played in full, back to back. Kinda like signalwave, but they forgot to do anything with
the samples. A little bit interesting, but I just don't understand it. Track 5's the best one for having
something that sounds interestingly melodic.

Another rare WTC album that lasts over an hour (at the time of writing this, it's the 8th
longest WTC release). Again, nothing really special about this Cathode Ray Mission release, but it does have some
interesting sounds here and there. I'm writing this after about another week-ish long break since I've had a terrible
and busy week so... it has taken me a while. But here I am! Back in action! Relistening to this since I totally paid
zero attention the first time and also it was like a week or two ago. For a while, it mostly sounds like lofi
nonsense that's somewhat entertaining, but again nothing to write home about. Track 4 is really cool though, I love
the thing they do with the guitar and drums samples, sounds a bit like a lofi Fennesz. So does track 13. Track
16's cool for having this super interesting glitch drums effect that it messes around with for a while until it
abruptly cuts to (what I think is) no input mixer. So overall, decent album, but not really at all a standout in
the catalog.

Holy crap it snowed in Texas. In February again, why is it always in February? Anyways, I
have a couple days off of school for what most people in the world would consider minimal snow. Instead of going
outside to appreciate it, I'm taking some sweet time to press the next EMCD cause it's fucking cold and as a
traditional Texan does, I don't really have winter clothes. Right off the bat, this thing's reminding me heavily of
Ramleh, probably for pretty obvious reasons. The whole first track's some crazy distorted piano improvisation (sorta
like Product of Fear hmmmmmmm). Still pretty good, but not nearly as emotionally powerful. Okay it gets old by the
end. Then the next track is some percussive sound sorta haphazardly looped a bunch (not in the sense that it's a
constant loop, but it's very skittery, like there's a lot of them in no real pattern). There's some other sounds that
occasionally repeat too. Somewhat interesting, but definitely lasts too long. Track 3 is pretty jarring as
it's seemingly random electric piano notes improvisation. I say seemingly random, but it seems entirely random, I
don't think this guy knows music theory, but there are interesting arpeggios that sound a bit too robotic to have
been performed, so I'm wondering how those were made in conjunction with everything else that sounds pretty much
like aimless piano tapping. Alright, that certainly got old for the length of a five minute track. Sure would be a
shame if the following 11 minute track were a continuation of that, but the MIDI were a slightly different sound.
Oh. That IS what it is. Come to think of it, that's what the first track is too. The second track's the only one
that's any different. Yeah this isn't a good album.

Well, this Crow dude is everywhere just like Okosan. Let's see what this thing is I guess. Oh
yo, beats?? Hmm, I guess this is techno fuckwit music. It's sorta fun to listen to, but I'd definitely never listen
to it again. Except maybe track 6 which had some real nice melodies. Also I don't know if I'd at all call this good.
But it was sorta fun. But also not really good from a technical standpoint, it's pretty minimal tbh, a lot of
not-very-thought-out beats, there were a couple breakbeats in there, some noises, some small melodic sections. Has
a very stream-of-consciousness feel to it that... I'm not sure if I like or if I'm just glad to listen to something
that doesn't sound like the same album over and over again from WTC.

Well, now we enter somewhat of a new era for WTC. This is the start of a mini-label on
January 2nd of this year [2022 for those of you in the future] where the concept is mediafire singles between 30
seconds and 15 minutes long called a ten pound note found in the drain So not TOO much different from WTC's normal
catalog, but adopted a slightly different
artist-base, first exemplified with proud owner of Sam Likes Not Just One Cock
In His Mouth Records, Hallend Oats188. I expect noisecore. And I'll be
turning down my volume. Yep, just as I expected, very loud and compressed Fauchoncore. Pretty good
honestly, nice breakcore, interesting samples. Not too much to say about it, doesn't get as absurd as
other micro-breakcore releases, but still sorta justifies its existence.

Well, it's [FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 4th] and the 10 year Tsundere Violence compilation just
released. So in true fashion, I'll be finishing the WTC catalog today instead (there's only a few more things, most
of them are short, I can probably knock it all out today). Anyways, this one takes the concept of "Lofi Noise"
established in their earlier albums and totally just runs with it, everything on here's some wash of total noise
rather than trying to develop concepts that just don't fit with the overall tambre of the album. This instead reminds
me of some of Hanatarash's recorded works (but maybe that's just because I'm being reminded of them what with the
new WTC drops today), I actually like this much better
than the other CRM albums. Track 2
reminds me of :Zoviet*France:. With all that in mind, track 6 doesn't really work. It goes back to the same problems
as the previous albums (it might actually be a track from one of them? Idk it sounds familiar but I can't remember
what it is) and instead of having a satisfying noise, it's WAY too lofi, the mastering's weird so it's this very
bass-heavy thing that gives me a headache and the sounds that are supposed to be in the foreground are a bit too
bogged down by everything happening around them. Neither does 7 or 8 for those same reasons. I mean they're fine,
but the last three just aren't great like the rest of the album, they're more just passable noise tracks
.
Total Run Time: 4:13
1. Red Light - 4:13
note6. More Crow. I think this is the last Crow though. More quiet beats that delve into a
bit of abstract territories, but oddly enough there's a trance synth over the whole thing. After a while it pretty
much stops developing though. Idk, it's fine, not really my cup of tea at all.
TELEVANGELIST - Esteemed Chapel Towers Part 1
Total Run Time: 15:00
1. Esteeemed Chapel Towers Part 1 - 15:00
note7. Hey I made this one! This is a bit of an experiment of mine where I took one half-hour
noise set and split it into 3 parts, releasing each part on a separate medium (Part 3 was released on Harry Hornack
Recordings, and part 2 hasn't been released yet). By the end, you can stitch together each of the three and get the
whole uninterupted piece. This first part starts with some infrequent and ultra-minimal clicks and pulses,
eventually leading into microphone feedback with Futurama in the background. Then, the real meat of this, is where I
start doing what I think is more emotional piano improv over feedback and no input sequencer, so it creates this
weird soundscape that's both harsh and soothing. Idk, that's what I was going for, I think it still holds up
mostly. Oh shit, I forgot I kept the Avirl 14th in this. Oh well. Ends with very high pitches. Idk, I thought it
served its purpose but of course I'm biased.
Total Run Time: 15:00
1. 15minConvolutiontest1 - 15:00
note8. Sounds like a track off Fluke Archive. Pretty much a single clicking loop that goes
through a
series of both subtle and unsubtle developments through the 15 minutes, nothing that really resonates with me
though. Mediocre.

listening project, the next thing will surely be something a bit more approachable. Maybe I'll finally do id m theft
able's Bandcamp, yeah that would be fun.) This is more lofi noise, although it actually has some really nice dark
ambient in the foreground and the noise is more of a satisfying low crunch than samey-annoying shit like most of
Cathode Ray Mission. I like this.

We'll finish this first, then RINGEX PLASTER, then Tsundere Violence comp, then I guess I'll finish AE_LIVE since I'm
already almost halfway through that (jeez, I have a lot of music to listen to soon). I'm still getting a bit tired
of this whole listening project lol, especially since I have three more interesting things to listen to, but I wanna
finish this first. This is basic Cube Underlord. More signalwave type stuff, although this time it's not a
narrative that's being played out for an hour. So I guess some of the context that made those albums good and great
is lost? Idk, it's fine, doesn't really do much for me, but it's nice that the sounds here aren't the same sounds
that this label has been pumping out on a loop since its conception. (Sorry if I sound like a pretentious ass
Stockport, this is just draining me, I no longer find the same lofi noise experiments that interesting, I think
you and everyone else on the label thats been emulating your style have pretty much fully executed the idea (I
mean there's obviously more that can be done with it, but MAKE DIFFERENT SOUNDS for Christ's sake)). (I normally
wouldn't complain this much directly to you about your own damn music, but I'm writing a review and entertainment
comes first! [this really has turned into quite the me-being-a-pretentious-ass-rant hasn't it, I should probably

Well, I should hopefully like this one more, considering it's from THE Wubman. Although
historically I'm not as big a fan of Wubman's full-on noise work. This one's goot, whatever. Different than most WTC
stuff, but does it really just get points for that? No, I think I actually did quite like this one, captured the
energy of old-school Hanatarash pretty adequately.

but maybe not since I actually have a lot of responsibilities to attend to today. We'll see how it goes, I only have
three things left after this (well two, but... you'll see. Or you already saw, whatever.) Anyways, this thing's
interesting. Sounds like a saxophone in a washing machine, but of course I can't help but like it. It's actually
kind of genius what concept this thing's going for. I mean it doesn't do that much for me, but I do appreciate it
ya know? The other weird thing is that while this got released as a single, it got released as a full album on WTC
a little while later by the same name with this same track on it. Also, pretty sure it's the same artwork, just
sayin cause ranking these is gonna look a little weird.

Let's go, another noise album. Hey, this one actually feels like more of a cohesive idea and
just overall sounds better than Junk Jazz! Hana's Trash's side is considerably more interesting than kowloon
antifreeze's though. The first kowloon antifreeze track is good, but the second is incessantly boring and loops a
phaser effect over ambient noise wall, an uninteresting sound that can't hold 3 minutes, let alone 20. The Hana
Trash side is really good noise though, I quite like it. Also interesting factoid about release, this marks the
beginning of WTC selling cassettes again! Yeah, the cassette for this came out yesterday. Also Stockport changed the
album art on me halfway through listening so I have to update this stupid thing.

tracks is the single from earlier (track 4, would you look at that). For some reason, Bandcamp calls it a second
shorter. This is basically like 8 tracks worth of that single, although looking into KTR I have to correct
something, it's not saxophone it's actually trombone, which makes this a LOT more impressive I think. Also it's
generative? Maybe? I'm not fully sure, it's odd. Each track is pretty much the same but with a different effect it
plays around with, decent but kinda eh after a while. Anyways, that's it! That's all of WTC!!! Well... except one

he found a CD of once, nothing on this was made by him, I think he forgot who even made all of them lol. They're also
pretty obviously all different people. The first two are some language I don't speak (I'm gonna assume Hindi), then
the third song is some dude singing about this little fishy or something. I mean they're all fairly decent tracks I
guess, I'm not really sure how to qualify this, probably close to like how I reviewed My Cell Phone Is Better Than
Yours, it's another upload of like *FOUND* Music or something. The 4th track is something asian. There's pretty much
no point speculating all of these, I'm just listening to this for completion's sake. Track 6 is unironically pretty
good. Oddly enough... I actually like this a lot! This thing sounds like nothing I've ever heard... for a few
years. It has this total childlike wonder to it that fully reminds me of the old bedtime stories, probably has
that same feeling to Sam, but a lot more personal. These are nice and calming, sometimes they sound a little like
Sufjan Stevens or Haruka Nakamura. ANDNDNDNDNDND That's it!!! Well for now at least, there will definitely be more
in the near future, but this is the first time in about half a year I've been fully caught up with the catalog!

should ask (these listening projects regularly function as journals anyways, so here's to spilling my guts about
stupid shit). Himeko Katagiri's a total cuck, but its been a couple days and I guess I'm mostly over it (I'll go
further in depth with that when I review the 10 year Tsundere Violence compilation). Uhhhh what else? Idk nothing
really, I've been having sorta an uneventful week. Did I finish this before or after the musical? Have I already
talked about the musical here? Okay I command F'd and it looks like I haven't, but for January my schedule was a bit
fucked cause I was playing drums in the school's Little Mermaid. Actually was kinda dope when we performed it, but
I need to start wearing earplugs regularly again. So... How's this single? Eh. It actually has fairly unique
skittering percussion made out of a vast array of sounds, it's just totally uninteresting for whatever reason, I
guess it's a bit too minimal techno. And it reminds me a lot of music I made when I was in like 6th grade, so
naturally I hate it. It's actually pretty annoying for that reason lol, although I'm being a little bit
unreasonable. Wait what the fuck is my itunes on repeat or something? I was about to say this is sounds so much
longer than 2 minutes but I looked and its looping for the third time wtf. Bruh idk how but it got added to the
queue an infinite number of times. The repeat symbol isn't even highlighted or anything. Enough of these tangents

repeated that point like three times, man I'm tired). This release is two minutes long, so another really short one
and then I'm done! But I'll probably just then move to the new RINGEX PLASTER since I haven't done that yet. Still
working through AE_LIVE though, only got 7 tracks of that left. This release is a bit of ambient fuckery. Field
recording of walking through some nature for about a minute, then some drones come on top with some odd slowed
percussion, that part sounds nice actually. It's decent, but doesn't really warrant its own existence.

Another Burdent album. Listening to this on the day of release, so we're up to date pretty
fast this time around. This one I do really like the cover art
for though. And whaddya know, the music isn't lofi past the point of listenability! (Not that that's necessarily a
bad thing, I just didn't like how the last Burdent release did that). This isn't really lofi at all, ALREADY
separating it from the rest of the WTC catalog. Actually, these weird signal-type noises are super strange and
unique, a full series of weird buzzes that creates a super interesting soundscape unlike any I've heard before. I
quite like this release already and we're only on track two, infinitely better than the other Burdent release. Track
3 is another set of weird buzzing, but a lot different type of buzzing, so it's dope as flip, ya know what I'm sayin?
Woah, track 5 gets intense, massiv screamin my man. Yeah this is killer. Existent/10.

need to listen to the
other sorwu thing that released today right after this. So it sounds like
some real funky four on the floor type thing with some crazy effects behind it. But the entire thing has
a low pass filter with
just like the bottom 50 hz or something enabled so it sounds like it's underwater and is pretty hard to
hear most of what's going on. There's some noises that sometimes peek out of this, but overall, a
somewhat annoying listen. Well, until about halfway through when other noises start becoming even more
prominent and it actually starts to sound pretty cool (but parts of it are still in that irritating low
end). Gets cooler by the end, but I would NOT like to listen to this again.

your money, followed by it in reverse which is then looped. Then some ambient pads come in. It's interesting but the
first segment isn't all too great. Second segment though, it's this ambient pad that reminds me a lot of Nanocyborg
Uberholocaust, especially on Goodbye Sol (this is a good thing btw, I love their later material). Third segment is
super strange, a weird ominous melodic thing that's low and has a bit of noise over it which then has some weird
effects applied to it. Another great segment. Last segment is a weird loop of some psychedelic guitar, reminds me a
lot of Zoviet France. Yeah, this single's great! Very much enjoyed it.

Hey I know this guy! (Listening to this on day of release, congrats on your debut album man,
let's see how much I like it). First track's a noise track made out of broken signal noises (I recognize that low
buzz from an open cable). Second track is fully rhythmic noise, sorta like a lofi version of Pan Sonic, Goes through
a lot of changes (feels very improv). Third track isn't that good, a loop of a break (not actually the amen break,
it's a different one) with some noise on top of it and sometimes the break gets weirdly disjointed, but not in a good
way, just in a weird amateurish way. Track 4's pretty cool, sounds like this weird piano thing which is super
distorted and tooled around with. Nice. All these noise tracks sound like improvisations on actual equipment, and
they also all sound like Peter Peter Little Caesar's Eater. Track 5 is some drum machine fuckery. It's alright I
guess, I mean it's pretty simple drum machine beats. Reminds me a lot of the Red n Blue stuff from a long time ago
(since deleted, they were on this label). Track 6 is by far the best one so far, some nice improv beat loops but
with a really fresh patch on a no input mixer that makes it all wobbly and counding like Mouse on Mars' Idiology.
Track 7 also does sorta the same thing, except instead of incorporating percussion, it just makes a beat out of the
(presumably) no input noises, so that's also a cool one. Track 8 is like a really early WARP Records track with a
noise element to it. So, not that great, but alright. This album has an annoying element to it where it's panned
super weirdly (probably because of how it's made), more of it's generally in the right ear than the left. Track 9 is
some old ad for swing music that's sped up and slowed down and skipped around a little, but not really that much is
done to it. Track 10 is a super cool noise track (probably the best so far) which is a full skip around between
super crazy noise, ping-pong like noises, and random distorted notes. It's crazy, sounds like something id m theft
able would make. Track 11 is really bad, for a quite extensive period, it is simply a terribly lofi kick drum
pulse, then some more drums add eventually to form a pretty bare bones techno beat. Last track is a full on noise
track which is actually pretty cool.
So overall thoughts on this whole thing. I have to apologize, but I try to keep my thoughts on these
listening projects as real as possible, so I am being 100% honest when I say I do not want to listen to this again.
Half of these tracks were good (some were great, but some were painfully mediocre). This album sounds right up old
school WTC's alley, blending right in among a lot of repeated concepts, most notably the drum machine fuckery of Red
n Blue. It's all sounds I've heard before and not much if at all is unique here. And that's not necessarily bad here,
but it gets incessantly boring where it simply sounds like improvised ideas without any actual attempt at
realization. Not that good. And I've heard some amazing music from this guy. I think the other reason
why this is like this is because (correct me if I'm wrong) this was made for the secret santa EMCD did
a while back. Or at least I remember this album artwork from back then.

note17. It's some tape loop stuff. Changes every few loops, actually manages to sound a
little like :Zoviet*France: during certain loops. Actually as it's going on, I do quite like this one more than I
thought I would based off the first few seconds, since it gets to be super CD-Skipping type stuff (but ya-know,
tape based). It's super cool! It's like made out of some guitar sample, parts of it are super dirty, parts of it
are super clean so I guess it's based off of some sort of complex noodling? Idk. It's cool though, I do know
that.

So I hate for this to be the release I have to discuss this, but it's looking like the
Merchant albums are gonna get taken down soon cause some shit came out about them manipulating people into doing
furry ERPs with them. Idk man the internet's fucking weird. They've been blacklisted on the breakcore Discord
community though lol. They will probably be back soon, it's very easy to just be anonymous and still have a prevalent
music career.
note18. Starts just like any other super lofi thing on this label, but eventually this
actually gets really good too! I like the noise segment 3 minutes in, I'm pretty sure it's something slowed down
Nanocyborg Uberholocaust style (God, that brings back memories). Then I think its original version kicks in? Then
something else super slowed down? Then a totally out of place collage of some weird Muzak loop. Yeah this is cool.

note21. Again, took a while to get around to this haha. Actually, its been quite a long time
since I worked on ANY listening project. I might halt the Kevin Drumm one, it's just not that fun to be completely
honest, I need one that's more fun to go through. Maybe id m theft able's bandcamp. Actually, that sounds real fun,
that's just gonna be the next one I do. Anyways onto the release. Listening to this after taking the STAAR test (I
think this is my last one I'll ever be taking? Not fully sure, thanks George Bush). Starts with some crazy guitar
noise, then develops into some strange lofi signalwave stuff. But I like this quite a bit more than WTC's other
stuff, even though on paper it might sound pretty similar. I quite like this release, the radio parts are chosen
super well and just sound super nice to get through. I kinda don't want this to end, the avant-garde part of this was
so short too. What's more, this one has quite a nice and unique tambre despite its low fidelity. It's great!
Love it.

Some of Giraffe People's normal stuff, but now with a new and improved sound! This one's
actually super cool. Extremely spastic and does sample flipping with a new, much more satisfying tambre (think back
to literally the last thing I listened to). So it's no input mixer combined with that radio jam he's known for. Oh
also, I don't think I mentioned this, Stockport (same guy as Giraffe People, goes under a thousand aliases I guess)
gave me a pretty dope birthday package including every single WTC CDr I didn't already have (finally up to date with
that although I think I now don't have this one haha. I do have a couple exclusives though, so that's nice). Also
included a 58-page art zine, very interesting, still need to make my way through a large chunk of it. Release reminds
me a bit of id m theft able (I know I keep going back and forth, you already know how ranty these damn things can
get. Second track's a bit more of Stockport's normal style, but still cool. I like the way the beat is screwed
around with. He should play live some time. I should convince him to do that, I'm meeting with him when I travel to
the UK this summer, so that should be great ("bussing" if you will). LOT of drawn out no input sounds on the second
track as well, although I sorta like what's done with it a little more. I'm not sure, this is a fantastic noise
release overall. Yeah he'd be pretty interesting to see live, that needs to happen now. The noise that kicks in at 6
minutes with the baby talking is REALLY good, like that one a lot. Super intense that combination of noises

This one's interesting. The first half of this album's pretty uninteresting and
forgettable. Field recording fuckery with stochastic percussion elements. It's interesting for a little while,
but in the grand scheme of things, relative to this label's whole output, absolutely nothing special. Then
starting at Everyday Life, track 8, things change. Everyday Life is an amazing
track, quite noisy, quite sound-collagey, it's everything! Soudns very much like an id m theft able track. Artifact
is also an incredibly pleasing and relaxing ambient piece. Damn, so is Arven, I am in love with the sample choices on
Arven. Oddly enough, the second half of this album is insanely better than the first. Polymereas was very
unexpected. A rock song that sounds a lot like Deerhoof with some insane noise in the background. Really really
amazing noise too might I add, this song is great! Final track Danse isn't notable though. So I have no clue why
half of this album is forgettable and the other half is insanely good and perfect, but I guess that's how it is.
I'll ask about it.

Oh, this was made by a friend of mine from the Bull of Heaven fan server. Sadly this
literally sounds like something slowed down (think Nanocyborg Uberholocaust's early stuff). In fact, let me download
this and speed it up to check. On closer inspection it... sorta is? It's an original track, but I'm pretty sure the
original's only a few minutes long at most, it sounds like something with a delay effect added on. Sorta like a
:Zoviet*France: track, but a less notable one. Idk, this release is really hard to explain. Very boring release cause
it just sounds like pointless bass Nanocyborg Uberholocaust resonance until 42 minutes in. Actually I think the
segment that kicks in at 42 minutes might be the original speed? Or maybe it's also slightly slowed, not sure. It
sounds pretty similar to what I got from the first segment in Audacity. The drones that kick in at 44:30 are
actually pretty good. Then after a while, the loop just stops developing. And it loops for like 20 minutes straight
whilst slowly fading out. And it's a really really short loop too, as well as not being a very intriguing one (so it
doesn't get Bull of Heaven points). Kinda sucks, sorry my man.

Oh Gosh, I'm very far behind. As of now, I have 16 releases to catch up on. God damn, WTC
keeps on firing out at an unnerving pace. First track starts out with a couple strange samples, then some acid
noises. Then it surprisingly turns into a gabber piece about a minute in with this super interesting scratchy vocal
noise atop it. Yeah, I'm liking this one. Then it turns into a strange rap section, which then devolves into this
strange noise project (which it's of these contents I thought it was going to be all along). It was actually pretty
cool, that first track was quite enjoyable. Second track starts with an amatuer rap segment, but the way it
progresses is something to behold. A couple minutes in, now that there's layers, it's actually pretty damng great!
Then the last few minutes are noise as the whole thing fizzles out. One of the best releases this label has to offer,
it's amazing.

Well, this is some extremely chaotic break-based noise. So of course it's awesome. These tracks segue into each other
real nicely, but part of that is because they all sound so similar to each other. I mean it's all impressive, but
everything's so blown out and sensory overload that unless it's a quieter track like igloo goto, they all register as
the same thing. Alright, that's the album, it just kinda happens, then ends.

Ah yes, this was the big road block. I could never find time to truly appreciate this
compilation. I originally wanted to say something about every track. I guess I'll be trying to listen to this while
doing homework, let's see how I do! (This is why the Kevin Drumm listening project was better! You know what, right
now I'm actually just gonna go and continue that). This opening track from PL()M is really great. Super fonky, an
amazing start to this compilation. It starts and you think it's gonna be just another noise fuckery track, but the
way the rhythms develop into something much bigger is just amazing. This is already like the best song the label has
released. Second track is some distorted guitar fuckery, a bit shoegazy, sorta flew under the radar though. Track 3
is one of the more rhythmic tracks I've heard from sorwu. I need to get more into their music, it's great and so
weird. It uses breaks like noise in such a way I've just never heard before. Track 4 is trippy, some sine wave
dissonance, I like it. Reminds me of Sachiko M but with less tinnitus. 5's a really strange blown out beat, pretty
short, but I like. The Kitty Gore track makes me feel very uncomfortable, and while sometimes that's not a bad thing,
in this case it's a bad thing. A lot of strange vocal samples that I don't really understand the point of and I
didn't really like the noises going on in the background. Premature Dodo Casino. For some reason everyone seems to
have taken a much funkier direction with this thing? I mean, I'm definitely enjoying it, very unexpected. That
Burdent track was loud. Butchered Soldier track is chill, nice. Sam Fauchon track is very very loud, not a very
notable track from him either. sexnine's track is pretty equally alright. The next track is a little better, but
same sort of jam (seems all these spastic tracks got thrown right after each other). Stockport Swimming Team track
is decent, not really anything particularly special. Petrol People's is some cool sine wave fuckery, sounds like it
was done in Audacity. Whatever, I felt it. Smiffmaff's track is free jazz! Awesome! Hallend Oats track is trippy.
SCART track is trippy. Kalba9 track is just alright, not really notable either. King Tiger's track has some nice low
bitrate and chiptune elements that caught my attention. Rene Kita's track is trippy. Noxw's track is trippy and
bussin bussin. Fordell Research Unit made a lofi ambient track that completely went over my head (although skimming
through it again, I probably would've liked it), palindrome's track is very mid, but its title is a cool reference
so I guess I give it a pass. 69 Susans' track is trippy, super strange noises there. So is the following track
26, but that's just synth fuckery. Alright, that's all I'm listening to for tonight, seeya tomorrow hopefully.
Okay, back again for Wubman's track. Very harsh breakcore track, love it. Some of Wubman's general stuff there.
Butchered Soldier's second track is a somewhat intense dnb track. Sounds like something that would fit in
Geometry Dash. DJ GTFO's track is very very loud (I guess that's sort of a complaint for this compilation, the
tracks have different volumes so you have to adjust your volume throughout listening which is annoying). GHSU's
track is cool, but not notable. Same with 69 Susans' second track. yol's track is basically a Whitehouse track.
Clips to an annoying degree. Pretty cool though. sorwu's second track is pretty cool, again a lot more rhytmic
than expected. Oh hey, my track! This was made back when I was trying to shit out as many tracks as possible for
compilations. This was one of the better ones that came out of that period, but I'm still not that happy with it.
Maybe it could've done better without the samples at the beginning, it started to actually take form a couple
minutes in. Then again, I sorta lost where I was going 4 minutes in. Wow, I did not expect the Flowers Growing
In Televisions track to be so peaceful and cathartic. Like it's actually amazing. Really really love this loop.
Final track is a download-only bonus track. Pretty harsh noise. So overall, decent compilation. Not really in
love with it, some great tracks, a lot of mediocre tracks. It's pretty cool, but nothing I would listen to
multiple times. Definitely some select tracks I'll keep from it though. Thanks for having me!

The intro's a pretty cool noise track. Starts with a wacky vocal stretch into noise. Good
intro. Second track continues with the theme, but the first vocal glitch has a super powerful bass impact with it. So
that builds up tension nicely. Ooh, then there's a breakbeat for a second. Super weird track that gets super quiet
in places. It's genius honestly, the way it works subtlety into itself. Reminds me of a quieter Horse and Goat. Also
noisier. So I guess more like Nymphomatriarch. This is also one of few releases on the WTC Bandcamp page to have an
actual review with it. 4zTaroTh says "This release is fantastic, every single track is awesome, i like it a lot.
Favorite track: Punk." So that gives me hope. I mean, it sounds fantastic so far. Third track starts with this
strange looping IDM sound, then develops this laid back trip hop beat similar to Bowery Electric. It's like a
combination of Bowery Electric and Mouse on Mars. It's nice, it's "sick". Fourth track is a super noisy industrial
beat that goes along with a bunch of radio samples and noise and it's cool I like it. Track 5 is crazy, has an
insane glitch beat, very bombastic, and it develops quite a bit. Has the best development by far of any track
here. The outro is nice and chill. Fantastic album for sure, definitely one of the best this label has to

This sounds like Audacity dark ambient. Made with the reverb effect. There's a cool
almost melodic thing at the 3 minute mark. About 8 minutes in, you can hear some unintelligible speech that also
has the reverb ambience effect on it. Woah, that second track caught me off guard. I definitely thought this was
gonna be an entirely shitty ambient album. Damn, this second track is killer. Random ass glitchy chiptune shit in
the vein of id m theft able with free jazz / grindcore drums in the background??? This is insane. Loving this
track. Then completely unintelligible vocals kick in??? Yeah wow this track is LEAGUES better than the last one.
Makes me wonder what right the last one even has being on this album. And some super cool ambient sweeps at the
end. Track 3 is weird. Starts with this quieter chiptune loop that develops some strange noises on top of it.
Then this super cheesy voice comes on top of it and starts saying "Fall further down" and other stuff, but
again, super cheesy. But then at 5 minutes in when the super intense drums kick in, the vocals actually start
to work? Then a little before the 9 minute mark it ends and all that's left is this weird loop of
half-screams? Again, id m theft able style where it's something so strange but it just works so well. I'd be
cool if it was just this for the last four minutes, but then cheesy vocals come in again and now they're in
sorta a whisper and okay they're cheesy again. These are kinda embarrassing. Ooh, but then the drums come in
again. Now it's noise rock! Okay, I like it again. This last track is super cool. A noisy guitar melody that
loops in a really nice way. As a whole, this reminds me of All Lights Fucked On The Hairy Amp Drooling.
Especially this track. Oh wow, the way it builds up is amazing. God damn, this might well go in regular
listening. This is full-on emotive, I can't believe I love this so much after whatever the hell that first
track was. It keeps looping, but it builds into this beautiful wash of noise. It's simple, but extremely
effective. Brilliant. I'm not sure where I'll rank this because I have to factor in that super mediocre first
track. It'll probably still be very close to the top though. Such a weird album damn. Fuck it, going
to the top. And now, I FINALLY get to update the website. Sorry this took so long guys!!! Hopefully it

compilation of very out-of-this-world sounds. And microsounds. I like it. Tickles my eardrums. Okay
the ending is very close to giving me a headache.
Charles Manson Mashup Crew - 21 In Prison
Total Run Time: 3:21
1. 21 In Prison - 3:21
note32. A dancecore remix of a Charles Manson track and then a few other tracks. This is
actually pretty good, it would be better if the breaks had more variation (I mean I get that this is a joke track and
all). It's a great joke track! I like it somehow. Definitely trying to sound like Shoebill.
Folky By Nature - BTW (Drain Mix)
Total Run Time: 1:59
1. BTW (Drain Mix) - 1:59
note33. Some rock song with random skips in it. That's it. Like a YTP.
Hallend Oats188 - Lunch Table Full Of Scene Girls Arguing About Chiptune And Judas Priest And Crap
Total Run Time: 0:29
1. Lunch Table Full Of Scene Girls Arguing About Chiptune And Judas Priest And Crap - 0:29
note34. A few samples with a chorus effect over them. Some good sample flipping. Very short.
No point in existing.
Total Run Time: 3:00
1. Idonis - 3:00
note35. A decent and well-detailed speedcore track with acid and experimental elements to it.
An interesting addition to this series. Ends abruptly. In the grand scheme of things, isn't that special, but idk, I
still like it.
