Pitchfork

Hit Vibes
A new reissue honors the influential vaporwave project’s crowning achievement: a groovy, sample-laden ode to excess that briefly epitomized the genre’s future funk offshoot.
you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love
The pop star’s third album is a heartbreaking account of an intense romance and its demise. Its mood is perfectly reflected in the music, and her evolution as a songwriter is a sight to behold.
SOMA
Brazilian funk, techno, trance, Miami bass, dubstep, and even tech-house all find a place on Sonny Moore’s latest, a stylistic and collaborative free-for-all that rarely settles in one place for long.
U
Positioned as a return to the dancefloor, the Brooklyn-based producer’s first album in six years is filled with chopped-up throwback samples. It’s crowd-pleasing and joyful but somewhat anemic.

The Needledrop

Vince Staples - Cry Baby
The stylistic risk Vince takes on Cry Baby is commendable, but his lyrics have much more bite than the rock instrumentation.
Converge - Hum of Hurt
This might be one of Converge's most accessible albums so far.
feeble little horse - bitknot
A marked downgrade from Girl with Fish.
Kurt Vile - Philadelphia's been good to me
A very enjoyable album from Mr. Vile.
