Sean Sharp's Diary

Was a massive Flume fan throughout my teens and early 20's and finding this was almost ethereal. You're telling me there is a whole other EP with Flume collaborative work that has never blessed my ears?!?! And it was just okay. Idk what exactly happened between Emoh and Flume but you can surely tell…

I love Vince Staples. I've been a fan of every album I've listened to of his, but this one just didn't land with me, unfortunately. Partly due to the fact that I am so drained politically, it's hard to listen to music, a form of escape for me, that is also political. The music itself also felt a bit…

I know so many people that see Noah Kahan as co-worker music and then I also have friends that are the direct people that love his sound. I seem to split the difference but I certainly don't believe that it's nearly as bad as the people that dislike it make it seem. He just reminds me of a solo arti…

Just more of the same from The Chainsmokers. It's neat to see them do a full collab EP, but there isn't enough Oaks in this. It's essentially a Chainsmokers EP with her featuring on every track. "Echo", while good, really just feels like a rehash of "The Fall" off of the deluxe version of "So Far So…

A maximalist album where Oliver goes BIG in the name of love and hate. This feels like he's constantly trying to hit a home run with every swing. A lot of the lyrics are questionable towards the latter half, and many of the songs don't have anything that gripping. The opener "My Only Friend", "Joyri…

Pretty simple all things considered. It really sticks to the meat and potatoes of Indie Rock, but I don't think they really bring anything all that incredibly different. Feels pretty standard for the genre. My friend loves their music, and typically, I find his recommendations pretty high quality, b…

I've never been able to get into KAYTRANADA's music the way others have. This album isn't really much different, there are certainly some interesting songs and moments of production but a good amount also just feels like his inspirations with extra polish. Channel Tres does make 2 good appearances o…

John Summit seems like a nice guy, but what really drew me to this album was his comments about how EDM is currently all the same. Like most, I thought this was a moment where it didn't seem he could see past his own nose because he is also one of the leading contributors to that problem. Then I tho…

Not too much to write home about. Despite being blessed by god himself with perfect pitch and a voice built for hits, Charlie's lack of ambition kills a lot of love I could have for his work. His inability to create a lane for himself is quite sad, considering how versatile he could be. I could be w…

There will always be a lot of distaste for Alan Walker's style, considering it is literally the same exact thing it was a decade ago. I'm a bit in disbelief that he has been able to make only this style of music for so long. Like, surely he is getting bored doing this. Regardless, just more of the s…
