Melih's Diary

Love the direction Mr. Harlow went with for this pretty short album. While the reactions online are pretty funny, I like that so far we all (more or less) think this is his best work. I haven’t listened to a lot of slow music lately so this was a welcome surprise. Still, after a few listens it feels like such a coherent album that I don’t remember which song was which and I really can’t tell what my favorite tracks are without listening back in. After doing just that I gotta say that Trade Places definitely takes the cake out of the only 9 tracks.

Really nice exploration of sounds and genres here, I thought kurtains would be more popular than he is right now.

Cool first 2 listens, never heard anything from him before but will definitely check out his last album soon. Clearly a fun type of album, and as far as I can tell a fan release before he drops another big project? Maybe not the right place to start listening to this artist, still enjoyed it, it fits a niche listening pocket perfectly.

I wouldn't say this sounded like brat, it sounds like she's going further down the road to her charli album, think "white mercedes" etc. These tracks actually made me wanna go watch the movie (or read the book) so hollywood pay this girl a little more for next time! I think 'House' is a classic by default and I actually like the true romancey tracks on here, especially 'My Reminder', even though they're very stripped down and simple in nature. Her bringing in pop prowess into these cinematic (but still very synthy) instrumentals made this special. I'd say this is another certified Charli dinger

This album is very raw, beautifully produced and way too short for me. This hits that specific nerve every time, and tracks like Get You and Best Part are practically timeless by now.

Bottom half of the album is amazing, top half of the album is not really what I want from Baby Keem, but it's fine in a way where I wouldn't skip any songs if I was listening in the background. I like that he kept it short with this one.

His voice is a little generic and doesn’t really have a lot of character, but the overall mood of the album is so groovy it doesn’t really matter. I loved it when I first heard it a few years back, and now coming back to it the hype kinda wore off. Still an amazing album that I will for sure spin in the future

He really went for quality and quantity on this album and it works out for him. After listening a few times front to back, disc 39, if released on its own, would earn a clear 10/10 from me. Some passages on disc 29 I still am not perfectly fine with but that's complaining at a high level. If he really doesn't return to music (which I highly doubt), he put out some of this best work on this one.

One of the most positively confusing first listens ever

Some pretty good tracks on here, overall not quite engaging enough though.

Breath of fresh air with this album, but very short-lived as I think if she keeps this style going it will get boring fast

Deep Diving got recommended to me and the entire EP sounds pretty awesome too in comparison! Very 2010s sounding, it’s like if Owl City made a mixtape with songs just like Fireflies

Found this album through tiktok, definitely enjoy the production, it’s very interesting to hear Sia sing like this before her radio hits! Give this one a spin if you have a hump day ahead

I’m pretty new to electronic music but I’m glad I got into it, this is pure energy!!

great vibes, melodies are amazing

I cant believe I slept on this album for so long, I’m sorry charli

Classic album, timeless

Cinema

Catchy but not original, sometimes too corny even if its intentional

Honestly, overhated

Close enough, welcome back Frank Ocean

Very simplistic and beautiful, sometimes too simplistic in that we don't really get any surprises from this album. Still a solid project, Marvin Gaye would be proud

I don’t really get the hype tbh. I like the production a lot but it doesn’t really do much for me in the context of the album

Can’t say enough good things about this album, very special to me

"you once said my name for the first time" is beautiful asf man

Some bangers on here

Not really feeling a lot of growth from Dave on this one. Maybe I need to listen a few more times to get it.

@cjj approved

Never would have found out if it wasn't for @baseballlrat's review on this album! Thanks for putting me on

Heard this for the first time when I was sick and stuck in bed. Love the mellow energy tracks

"Fade Into You" is obviously a classic but this album has a lot more to offer than just that. Do not apply any rational thought to this album

Proven formula, but still very sonically pleasing. The instrumentals in each track are so good, there is a generic theme of the album but this is still on repeat 4 years later.

This album does something to my brain. No skips

Some clear bangers but I don't love all of the tracks

Very unique experience, super nice concept, I love this!

Do you know the feeling when you connect an album to a location? This album is the most I've felt this connection with.

Found "MAYBE." by Sienna randomly via the Spotify algorithm and got hooked immediately. Haven't listened to this album in a while but it will probably end up in my favorites list of 2025. Definitely give it a try!

This came out last week and probably is already on the top of my Spotify Wrapped this year
