Smooth vibe, compelling rhythms, nicely done overall. 8) Mixed feelings about the cymbals/clap though - so loud, clear, sharp, defined... my eardrums want to caress every tantalizing squiggle of crystalline soundwave, but doing so, at least initially, caused pain to happen, in a pain way. I poked some others in possession of ears for generalized opinions, and the clap/hats were a main point of criticism, though perhaps more due to personal expectations for perc priority than pain receptors (WORTHLESS OPINIONS). Unfortunately, we all know that reducing the high end at all takes the magic out of music, so... what's the harm in occasional ear spiciness, anyway?

even if a song sounded nothing like a slake song but I was told "this is slake inspired" I'd just be like "okay cool I'm 110% on board with this slaketastic jam"

that this sounds reasonably slake-like greatly enhances the experience of enjoying the slaketastic jam beyond the charm of the Golden Namedrop

~00s menu VGM is one of my favorite vibes in music, love to hear it. To me at least, the palette and shaping of sounds in this track are more than a perfect fit; they encapsulate the kind of unique flair that's often missing from the works of those drawing from the same sources of inspiration. This is the sort of individual work that contributes to the memorability of the whole style.

What a photogenic array of wild characters we have here eh, some real party people from the looks of it
