First day of December and already, I've experienced the existential horror of Christmas music.

My solace in this dark time:

Switch it up a bit... first one is a metal/dubstep fusion, the second is a funk...electronic... thing.

I am not sold on Au5's production on Funk. I think the goal was to give it a more retro feel by keeping the mixing and mastering "crunchy" and not nearly as defined as you would expect from a modern artist, and I appreciate the sentiment, but alot of the time the synths are just too smashed together and don't have enough texture and body to really be distinguishable from one another. Still a very ambitious song though and I appreciate that. It certainly feels dated, like funk should, but having become so accustomed to the high quality of modern mixing it definitely grates on the ear to an small extent. The vocals are also not particularly clicking with me.

I realize I have talked a lot of shit about the song, but I really, REALLY enjoy the things it does get right. It holds so true to the spirit of funk that at times it's hard to think it wasn't sampled from a song decades old and that's impressive. And the bits that do click with the ear have an absolutely phenomenal groove and rhythm to them.

Absolute c l a s s i c. Honestly, this track was probably just about peak internet/youtube culture, and every since then has been an almost consistent downward spiral.

Baby Yoda aside, of course.
