20) World War - Soundsystem

Distorted Redrum rhythms dripping with gabbery, housey, bounceable goodness. Every moment is more relentless than the last, with strange electronic and sometimes nightmarish sound elements effortlessly woven into the complicated crescendos that comprise each track. 

STREAM/DOWNLOAD

19) Curved Light - Quartzsite

It’s rare to find a synth album that isn’t endlessly droning or cheekily nostalgic. Quartzsite utilizes slow-attack expansive pads alongside stabby knob turners without falling into the tropes that have been turned over time and time again over the last decade. Subtle but fast tempo percussive elements ticking beneath pure white pads and icy synthfalls of pure crystal.

STREAM/DOWNLOAD

18) Geo Metro - Ravage2099

Fellow Philadelphia artist Geo Metro dropped this dense debut on Tiger Blood Tapes earlier this year. His shows are always foggy headthumpers with mind melting realtime sampling, deep drones, dancing rhythmic enigmas and astral melodies. None of this was lost in translation to magnetic tape, the bubbling pulse of beyond - a spiritual guide.

STREAM/DOWNLOAD

17) Disasteradio - Sweatshop

Another incredible performance I was fortunate to witness this year was Eyeliner AKA Disasteradio. His on stage MIDI splicing with its gravity-increasing, vocoded, show-stopping finale was exhilarating and inspiring. All of that energy, bombast, and humor can be found on Sweatshop. There’s also a high level of musicianship - touching upon 90′s FM video game music, new wave DEVO synthpop, and moments like “Unleash The Free TV Revolt” which echo Daft Punk vocoder jams. Playful and reflective of what childhood in the early 90′s actually felt like.

STREAM/DOWNLOAD

16) x.y.r. - Labyrinth

x.y.r. could keep putting albums out like this every year until I die and I would still count them among my favorites. No one does lo-fi synth music the way he does - his unique musical character pulses and wanders in this fuzzy maze.

STREAM/DOWNLOAD

15) Computer Graphics - Lo-Fi

This collection of hazy house jams was a lens back through time. Flashbacks of downloading strange electronic artists off LimeWire in the early 00′s, sinking endless frustrated hours into PixelJunk Eden, and now dancing around my house with Computer Graphics bumping. It’s just as dreamy and hypnotic as you’d hope.

STREAM/DOWNLOAD

14) Nico Niquo - In A Silent Way

Taking a step away from the “darkwebwave” of 2015′s Epitaph, Nico Niquo explores more expansive snow plains on In A Silent Way. Gone are the stabbing vocal samples an occasional swirling rhythmic patterning - in their place is Eno-esque slow burners with that rise and fall like the breaths of a sleeping frost giant against moments of purity and silence. 

STREAM/DOWNLOAD

13) Arca - Arca

Arca’s 3rd full length is thick and operatic. Like haunted ballroom music with a broken falsetto whispering in your ear, being engulfed in underwater explosions, or watching the credits roll on your own life. It’s sometimes oppressively stark, sometimes intimately vulnerable, and always entrancing. I was initially pulled in by the video premiere for the masterpiece “Desafio.”

VIDEO STREAM

12) Nyoi Plunger - Poiret Status

Playful and full of detail, twisted and bent as it’s pulled into a black hole and spit out again. Poiret Status is always teetering on the edge of a nightmare. Strange voices laugh and coo, like being trapped in a realm ruled by the manifestation of fear, or a dance hall where your very physicality is distorted, warped, and twisted as time becomes unhinged and there’s nothing left to hold onto.

STREAM/DOWNLOAD

11) The Caretaker - Everywhere at the end of time - Stages 2 & 3

Discovering Leyland Kirby’s work was a turning point in my life. Over the last decade release after release of both haunted ballroom music as The Caretaker and reflective synth/piano music as himself have becomes markers for the years of my life. This year we received the next two stages of the dementia simulation of Everywhere at the end of time. The flowers have wilted, and the darkening mind is displayed with a poignant beauty.  

STREAM/DOWNLOAD

10) TVVIN_PINEZ_M4LL - orz

More than half a decade after the wave rose and fell, torch bearers continue to twist the pop of the past to express new ideas and add their emotional mark to the blockchain of internet music. In the case of the prolific TVVIN_PINEZ_M4LL, orz uses vaporwave techniques and traditions as a framework for an emotionally radiant, deeply personal love story. Bursting with raw emotion and feelings of NUWRLD.

STREAM/DOWNLOAD

09) Various - Even Further

It feels weird putting a remix compilation on one of these lists, but the Zoom Lens label tribute to Infinity Shred is one of those rare moments when a compilation isn’t just a total mishmash of whatever happened to be thrown into the pot. A fitting showcase of the LA label’s diverse palette of sound, from Berserk ost aping to widescreen chiptune bliss - heavy beats and the brightest black leather darkness that is worthy of Infinity Shred’s cinematic scope.

STREAM/DOWNLOAD

08) FIRE-TOOLZ - INTERBEING

Metal-screeches in empty halls drip over post-eccojam synth operas, spastic crystalline outbursts, and high-tempo-high-energy half pipe spaceship rides with broken bits of sound and a cyberpunk sheen. Songs completely split open with massive bombardments of noise and an endless layering of digital artifacts. A labyrinth of glitched out modernity.

STREAM/DOWNLOAD

07) Koeosaeme - Sonorant

Fast and full of neck-breaking spins, Sonorant alongside Nyoi Plunger’s Poiret Status were two of the most forward-looking albums I heard this year. With the endless tiny pattering of a billion bits of music playing up against unnatural arrangements of bizarre rhythmic breaks and supernatural harmony. Part sound sculpture part audio apocalypse.

STREAM/DOWNLOAD

06) Piper Spray - r.i.p.

When pieces of you die and slowly fall away, they leave a trail of memories in their wake. Piper Spray, one of my favorite artists of the last decade, has been prolific and mysterious - even elusive. His entire body of work has since been deleted from his bandcamp and only this retrospective release that looks back at the last 7 years of his output and life in 6 tracks remains. Full of noise, pain, frustration - with a touch of sorrow and sweetness we are given once last glimpse into the nostalgia for a place we’ve never known. His music has been my constant companion on my own personal journey these last 7 years. RIP Piper Spray.

STREAM/DOWNLOAD

05) Euglossine - Sharp Time

It wasn’t until I was lucky enough to play a show with Stany Bebe AKA Euglossine that I discovered to my amazement that the majority of the sounds on this album were performed on MIDI guitar. The sound blips and pan flutes expressed with metronomic precision on a real guitar having its note data interpreted by a MIDI conversion box. Mind blowing musicianship and sprawling melodic composition.

STREAM/DOWNLOAD

04) Giant Claw - Soft Channel

I couldn’t stop listening to Soft Channel this year! The culmination of everything that has come before and a wide leap into the future. Orchestral fragmentation in a thick rainbow of sound that breathes and pulses - the sound design is mind blowing, frantic and brilliantly produced. It’s a crisp and meticulously designed new height. 

STREAM/DOWNLOAD

03) Marcus Fjellström - Skelektikon

It’s hard to believe it’s been 7 years since Marcus Fjellström’s Schattenspieler was listed as my favorite album of 2010 (on the inaugural annotated list!). Now, all these years later, we were finally treated with a proper followup - and tragically lost Fjellström himself. Skelektikon is a remarkable swansong, picking up where Schattenspieler left off - diving deeper into the anxiety ridden halls of darkness. Larger orchestral arrangements pop up, tape flutter constantly threatening to snap the dread to a sudden end. There’s is a sometimes darkly romantic turn to its harmonic movements however - a humanizing touch that makes the ghosts that much more terrifying.

STREAM/DOWNLOAD

02) Sour Gout - I S O L A T E

It doesn’t matter how you get there, only how good the ideas are. I S O L A T E may be built out of a collection of new age and incidental music samples, but its collages give a sense of a deep personal expression. Saccharin guitar, C418-esque piano phrases, and blankets of emotional vulnerability eventually fall into the uneasy loneliness of the 15 minute title track. The empty soul that was once full, bordering on brooding but very soft to lay in. I found myself keeping this one on loop for hours at a time.

STREAM/DOWNLOAD

01) Machine Girl - ...BECAUSE I’M YOUNG ARROGANT AND HATE EVERYTHING YOU STAND FOR

Machine Girl puts on a really incredible/brutal show - and the recorded version of that experience loses none of the warped maelstrom of sound that makes them so viscerally intense. Heavy industrial punk with face smashing breakdowns peppering every track - like moments of floating in violence as you’re torn apart by passing gravity wells. Disillusioned anger with the musical chops and temperament of someone who grew up listening to Phantasy Star Online music - it was my favorite album of 2017!

I'm literally crying right now I'm so tired bro😭😭 Tell me why I found this femdom manwha and was like "Yippe!!😄" only to see that the fl is a rapist asshole😭😭 Like gimme a BREAK!!! THIS HAPPENS EVERYTIME!! Do people just think we're all sadistic rapists?😢

NOOOO THATS THE WORST FEELING 😭 i hate that femdom is so often associated with rape/non-con and extreme degradation. there’s this post i like that says how they wished romance and tenderness was portrayed more in femdom media, and i so agree :(((

like why are femdoms always perceived as predatory? sigh. i think that’s why a lot of femdom on the hub and such just doesn’t do it for me 😔

[vampcubus]

I was going through my old art from 2022 and- YOO!??? HOW DID I DO THIS!??😭 AND WHY CAN'T I DRAW FOR A LIKE THAT ANYMORE???😭😭😭 (again my phone is shit so the quality is too I really need to upgrade bro)

HOLY SHIT??? SHE'S SUCH A BADDIE 🥵 your anatomy here is >>> like fr how'd u do that 🔫 teach me ur ways. i especially love her hairrrr. it's so aesthetically pleasing to look at.

[vampcubus]

[vampcubus]

I was rewatching Inuyasha and saw why I liked Muzan so much *sigh*

i’m still not very far in the show so idk who this is but purrrrrrrr. i’m tryna find out *twirls hair*

[vampcubus]

Literally was just talking about my Ocs and playing monopoly and the bot says this😭😑

THEY’RE SO HORNY NOW I SWEAR ✋😭 i could be roleplaying the most wholesome scene ever and then they whip out the ‘i want you’ out of no where.

[vampcubus]

I was on janitor ai and was talking to this bot right? So the plot is that I'm in an arranged marriage with this prince but he like HATES my guts. He also has a lover named Hazel and was mad disrespectful for no reason so I did what anyone else would do.....

I won the nobles and the commoners to my side, stole his girl, ruined his reputation, poisoned the king and overthrew the kingdom making Hazel my queen.

now write a book about it so i can read it 😡😡😡 no fr cus i would eat this UP 😩

[vampcubus]

I definitely watched this for artistic purposes......yeah.....art😳

🧢!!!! also this is almost exactly how i imagine kyojuro’s body 😮‍💨 especially the tits.

[vampcubus]

I just came back to Tumblr after a while and I see that you're being accused of something so vile? What the hell?

I haven't interacted with you long but I know that you're a sweet, respectful and amazing person that would NEVER do something like that! And you're always so strict when it comes to minors on your blog.

Honestly I completely understand of you decide to deactivate and start over. Those kind of accusations can get to anybody and can be really damaging.

Just know that me and most of your followers completely support you and appreciate you a lot. Don't let that stupid brain dead troll get to you, people just love looking for ways to dull other people's shine so keep shining Ashi.🤗

THANK 👏 YOU 👏 like anyone who knows me well enough would know that i would NEVER do something like that 🤢

tbh i’m not sure if i wanna deactivate and start anew or not yet. while it’s tempting to just say ‘fuck y’all lyin ass bitches’ (referring to rebxxxy and whoever else is in on it) and dip cus my safe space is being threatened… i also love this blog and want to dig my heels in, bc it’s MY HOUSE.

i’m just happy that my real followers and friends have my back n know better than to believe this weirdo. i mostly post for my mutuals and regulars nowadays anyway 💕

i’ll try not to think about it and keep doin’ me, thank you for the encouragement 🥹🫶

[vampcubus]

This guy was the start of me liking snarky egotistical assholes, I'm not proud of it either.......don't laugh at me I'm being vulnerable here😢

dw i am in no position to judge regarding my ‘hear me out’ posts, but bbg (gn) who is this? 😭

[vampcubus]

Finally. FINALLY!! I think I found a femdom manhwa worth reading. It only has 14 chapters, it hasn't gotten to the smut yet so I'm still on the fence about it, but I'm hopeful and praying that it's good. It has really good art too! The name of it is In the Doghouse btw!

GASP!! i will be checking that out 👀 ik femdom manga/manhwa get weird quick (or the dynamic flips at the end 😒) so high hopes for this!

[vampcubus]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY GLORIOUS KING KATSUKI BAKUGOU🍾🎇🎂

HAPPY BDAY TO EVERYONE’S FAV BLOND BITCH 🥰🥰

[vampcubus]

My favourite thing ever is when men are so desperate to cum that they'd just jump anything. Whether it be a pillow, the bed or even the floor, doesn't matter. Like, "Aww you need it so bad that you'd just hump anything, puppy?" AGDFDFGH!!!!

oh my gosh yesss. cute puppyboys that can’t help but hump things, desperate to get off are so adorable <3 especially when they get caught and can’t stop themselves cus it feels too good :(((

[vampcubus]

I was talking to an old friend and during the conversation they brought up my old academic rival and was like, "It was so obvious how much he liked you!" and I was like "???huh??? What are you talking about???" And she looked at me like I was dumb and said that everyone knew about it. My dumbass was so focused on beating him that I missed my chance to have a academic rivals to lovers romance noooo😢😭

NAURRR I’M SO SORRY 😭 it could have been like a dark academia fanfic 😔

ur so me though bc i can never tell when people are into me either, so when i learn later that they were but i missed my chance i punch the air
