Artist: Jahzzar
Album: Onus

I love free music. Artists who put their music up for free download, like Bomb the Music Industry!, or The Brave Little Abacus, are my friends, mon. So I went to Freemusicarchive.org, and decided to download a randomly picked one. I chose this one because I liked the album cover. Then I forgot about it for a few days.

I was standing on the bus today, listening to Brave Bird, when the album finished and repeated itself. And since I've been listening to a ****load of Brave Bird this week, I thought I'd put on something else, but what, exactly? Scrolling down the list, I was about to put on some Joie de Vivre, but stopped at Jahzzar. "Might as well listen to that," I thought.

That was a bleak ride home. Jeez. I expected experimental folk pop stuff, guessing from the album tags on its Free Music Archive page, but what did I get? The stuff Varg Vikernes would make in prison if he had a predilection to generic EDM and lo-fi game soundtracks. Few ideas are on display, none of which are really interesting, and the album is instrumental.

2/5
