Listening: Bandcamp
A milestone album of MIDI sorcery, rooted in system/productivity software music, business jazz for office, and the works of '90s Japanese game composers. Overstimulating in every aspect of composition and audio design. A scintillating explosion of the past and future meeting like matter and antimatter.
Very strongly recommended to listen to this along with the visual presentation by the artist (with some contributions by Chimeratio, also an extremely talented musician and visual artist): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I6AEDnVcyNc
Recommended tracks: literally all of it, but—
- "Passenger" takes you to outer space
- "Test of Ascension" is every Troubadour Record album at once
- "RIO Sunshine" is both music from Rio (as in de Janeiro) and music from RIO (as in Rock in Opposition)
- "Rainforest Collapse III" is the climax of the Holocene extinction
