Favorite new album of the month: Imaginal Disk by Magdalena Bay


Inspired by last year's Spotify wrapped I've decided to find more new music to listen to. I posted earlier this month about some of the new music I've been into lately.

• This month I've listened to a lot of Charli-adjacent music (brat is still on repeat every week): Magdalena Bay, Japanese House, Caroline Polacheck, A.G cook.
• Thanks to tiktok I found Lexie Liu!
• Rap: Tyler the creator, Megan thee stallion, and Doechii new albums. All really good
• New genres: Detroit House and Korean RnB
• I finally got Irene’s debut album i ordered few months ago. The visuals are one of the best I’ve seen(like with Red Velvet always). It’s a comfort album about growth and personal discovery and self-love. I’m very much aligned with the album. I’ve been also listening more to Red Velvet again and remembered why they’re my number one girl group forever. I’m excited for Red Velvet 10th anniversary concert film next month and also for Seulgi’s 2nd solo album!
• I also listened to Ethel Cain's and FKA twigs' new albums and reviewed them

I really liked No Doubt MV! I feel like I've seen more office themed mvs lately(Eusexua and Viola) but I really like it and actually office romance is one of my favorite genres :D

• I really got into ENHYPEN this month.Although I absolutely cannot afford to have other groups to stan so I try to stay a casual fan. But I ended up watching their survival show I-land (i will post about it later). I really like the romantic vampire concept and the members seem really sweet.
• I also recently found(ahem tiktok) new j-pop group &team which is also under HYBE and many of the contestants were in i-land.

• Honorable new song mentions:
• Kim Wan-Sun & Seulgi - Lucky
• Min Jiwoon - Sentimental Love
• IVE - Rebel Hearts

Another MV I really liked:

It's a simple MV but I really love the found footage + online aesthetics. A.G. Cook produced this song! I played UFO a lot during last October when it dropped. I watched a lot of horror films and so the song reminds me of those and that's why I feel like the horror theme of the remix mv is perfect. I've been obsessed with f5ve since last summer when Underground dropped. I feel like I'm their perfect target audience because I like kpop,jpop and hyperpop (+ I'm gay and chronically online like their very active social media manager on twitter who divides opinions). I really look forward to them releasing an album and hopefully touring in Europe.
