Style: vaporwave, barber beats
Primary Emotions/Themes: relaxed beats to wind down the day with
Thoughts: Of all the new wave of barber beats artists GORE is certainly one of my favorites, if not my favorite. That said, with the amount of output that some of these vapor guys do, you gotta have a dud now and then.
起源不明 is one of those duds unfortunately. There is a weird sense of experimentation in the album that makes it want to sound like lounge music mixed with big band jazz mixed with the six o'clock news. That sounds like a rather novel combination in theory, however in practice... at least here... it's not very well executed.
The songs are all over the place, with some sounding like typical barber beats or mallsoft. Others sound like they belong in in a news broadcast or morning talk show. They sound completely out of place and the transitions are very jarring.
Overall the album has too many ideas in too little of a space. It's some good ideas interspersed with some bad ones and the lack of consistency simply drags the whole system down.
