  budjarnlambeth why do you like byrnes so much
    i don't get it
      what do you see in this track
the more i listen to byrnes the more i hear these little cliches that are
omnipresent within his work
i don't think i can take it anymore.
so why a 2.3? one byrnes track is fine. what i'm doing now, which is listening to a bunch of byrnes all at once, is no fun at all.

A really hard one to give a rating to. Sounds great locally, but a mess globally. I don't hear a coherent macrostructure, even though stylistically it is similar to genres of music that tend to have a coherent macrostructure, so I end up feeling lost.

I listened to it because it was the top ranked thing. It made me feel impatient, but I made sure to listen to at least a couple of parts of every song. I think it's just not really my thing, I prefer music with focus on chordal harmony with accompanying melody. Also, though the production seems good, it makes my ears feel discomfort sometimes (which is nothing to do with whether it sounds good or not); perhaps some high frequencies lurking or something. There are definitely various cool parts in it that I liked though. Hence I feel neutral about it.

Honestly, I think this works great in Orwell as is but could also make a great quarter-tone piece if rendered in 24edo, which could help make quarter tones more attractive to the general public.
