Musical Findings (Week of June 1, 2018)

A few weeks ago, I saw TheChibiKing’s posts in which they’d talk about all the music they found that week. I liked that idea, so with their permission, I decided to make a similar series. I’ll make a new post every Friday so make sure to stay tuned!

I'll give each song a rating, ⅕ being terrible and 5/5 being incredible.

Since this is only the third time I’ve done this kind of post, I’ll state the rules again:

Like the blog I made like this a few months ago, you may suggest songs for me to listen to but there are some rules: keep it PG-13 (you can suggest songs with cuss words in them as long as they aren’t super dirty or offensive), and don’t suggest anything with over 30 million plays on Spotify/10 million views on YouTube, ‘cause I like to find new artists and songs to listen to that don’t get much attention.

THIS WEEK’S SONGS:

GRAACE - Kissing Boys

Good song, but there’s one line that I don’t like:

And I've been treating them like toys, them like toys”
 * “But I've been busy kissing boys, kissing boys

I don't think I need to explain why I don’t like that line much.

Blasko - Ms Love

Wow, it seems like everything Majestic Casual releases is awesome. The beat drop, though, is a little ehhh…

Rating: 4.5/5

Lauv - Paranoid

Lauv can do no wrong.

Maribou State - Rituals

The vocal chops sound a little weird IMO, but the rest of the song is good.

FAVELA - Patience

Listen to this song. That’s all I’m gonna say.

Rating: 5/5

Krewella - Runaway

The beat drop is really annoying, but I like the indie dance vibes a lot.

FAVELA - Future Visions

Wow, I should listen to more songs by this artist.

Chelsea Cutler - Someone Else

The beat drop is very generic, but Chelsea Cutler’s lyrics are easy to relate to (and it’s cool to know that she writes and produces her own music).

Iamamiwhoami - chasing kites

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, and everyone else - THIS is the definition of a good pop song.



Rating: 5/5

Aquilo - Ghost

I don't know why, but I love songs like this. Although I don’t know many Aquilo songs, I’ll make sure to listen to more of their stuff later on.

Rating: 5/5

Nieve, SoulChef - Life I’m Livin’

I know Nieve through Møme, but honestly I didn’t know he was on anything else but Routine until a few days ago when I heard another song featuring them on DI.FM’s Chillhop radio (if you like Nujabes go listen to that station, ‘cause they play a lot of music by artists similar to him). I like the beat, and I like the message that the song sends, too.
