In 2024 and 2025, I did some short write-ups for my close friends about albums and songs I particularly liked and had things to say about. So far, I've been doing them every November-December around the same time that Spotify Wrapped comes out. This is a cleaned-up version of my 2025 roundup!

<p>In 2024 and 2025, I did some short write-ups for my close friends about albums and songs I particularly liked and had things to say about. So far, I've been doing them every November-December around the same time that Spotify Wrapped comes out. This is a cleaned-up version of my 2025 roundup!</p> <h2>Albums</h2> <img src="https://mews.neocities.org/images/posts/pompoms-ep.jpg"/> <h3><em>The Pom-Poms</em> - The Pom-Poms (2018)</h3> <p>Since we’re pretty much going November to November I would be remiss not to start with The Pom-Poms’ self-titled EP, which has become an absolute mews staple after I discovered it in December last year. Is it loud and probably unbearably annoying to some? Yes. But somehow this music managed to convince me that being a more confident person was actually an attainable goal. Don’t ask me how, because I have no idea!</p> <p>I like every song on this EP for different reasons, but my favourite overall is <em>Full Circle</em>, closely followed by <em>Watch Me</em>.</p> <p>And speaking of projects involving Kitty Ray…</p> <img src="https://mews.neocities.org/images/posts/rosegold.jpg"/> <h3><em>Rose Gold</em> - kitty (2019)</h3> <p>Discovering The Pom-Poms also kicked off my Kitty deep dive. (For me, 2025 was definitely the year of Kitty!) I’m fascinated by her transformation from maligned cringey teenage rapper to independent artist making what I might (poorly) describe as dreamy part-alternative part-electronic music. Quite frankly I find even her old ‘bad’ music charming (even if only because I, too, used to fuck around making music with friends). It's hard to articulate this as well as I'd like, but even though most artists inevitably have to do a certain amount of 'growing in public', I really do have a lot of respect for discographies that span so much time where you can see so much experimentation with different styles. It makes it feel like wherever the artist has ended up is that much more 'them', if that makes sense.</p> <p><em>Rose Gold</em> might be the best showcase of Kitty's range that I've heard so far. It has everything from the dark and dancey (<em>look demure</em>) to an indie/emo(?) ballad (<em>the window</em>) to an instrumental that (to me) evokes cosy games like Stardew Valley (<em>kitty’s farm</em>) to a chilled out retake of an old unreleased rap track (<em>florida</em>).</p> <p>And if you want to hear a song about being a financial dominatrix (<em>B.O.M.B. (peter)</em>) then this is the album for you</p> <img src="https://mews.neocities.org/images/posts/ilmc.jpg"/> <h3><em>I Love My Computer</em> - Ninajirachi (2025)</h3> <p>I knew from about the second listen that this would likely be my favourite album released in 2025. It’s almost impossible to not make comparisons to <em>Brat</em> in the sense that it’s an electronic/dance album that’s absurdly catchy and also touches on some quite personal subjects (in this case things such as 2010s nostalgia [<em>iPod Touch</em>], the mortifying ordeal of posting on Instagram [<em>Delete</em>], and accidentally coming across shock videos as a teenager [<em>Infohazard</em>]). It’s more EDM and less pop than <em>Brat</em> overall, but I’ve given both albums the same average rating and I love it enough that I now own 2 different vinyl variants ^^; Highly highly recommended!</p> <img src="https://mews.neocities.org/images/posts/struggler.jpg"/> <h3><em>STRUGGLER</em> - Genesis Owusu (2023)</h3> <p><em>STRUGGLER</em> is a concept album about a roach fighting God (kinda Kafka-inspired…?) and it’s truly excellent. It’s an extremely cohesive album, spanning a lot of different emotions and really telling a story. It’s catchy too! My favourite tracks at the moment are <em>Leaving the Light</em>, <em>Freak Boy</em>, <em>Balthazar</em>, and <em>Survivor</em>. (Please can there be a deluxe vinyl or something with <em>Survivor</em> on it… I respect the artistic choice to end on <em>Stuck To The Fan</em> but, please, it’s too good to not play on the big speakers >_<)</p> <h2>Songs</h2> <p>A few honorary mentions for whatever reason!</p> <p> <ul> <li><strong>モエチャッカファイア (Moechakkafire)</strong> - 弌誠 (issey)</li> <li><strong>maybe baby</strong> - Effie</li> <li><strong>Tears</strong> - Faye 詹雯婷</li> <li><strong>恶之花 (The Flower of Evil)</strong> - Isabelle Huang</li> <li><strong>Poet | Artist</strong> - SHINee</li> </ul> </p> https://mews.neocities.org/posts/2024-roundup 2026-03-13T12:00:00Z mews

This is a cleaned-up version of my 2024 roundup!</p> <h2>Albums</h2> <img src="https://mews.neocities.org/images/posts/happystar.jpg"/> <h3><em>The Happy Star</em> - Lexie Liu (2022)</h3> <p>I've been listening to songs from Lexie Liu's previous EP, GONE GOLD (which is also excellent), for a couple of years now, but I finally gave <em>The Happy Star</em> a proper listen to in around October-November of 2024. It's a very interesting work that spans a lot of different genres. The songs are apparently inspired by tarot cards, such as the Wheel of Fortune (<em>FORTUNA</em>), the High Priestess (<em>MIRA</em>), and the Devil (<em>DIABLO</em>). She also sings in Mandarin, English, and Spanish on this album, which as a language liker, endears me to it very much! My picks are <em>MAGICIAN</em>, <em>MIRA</em>, <em>RRR</em>, and <em>3.14159</em>. The whole album is good though!</p> <img src="https://mews.neocities.org/images/posts/hifn.jpg"/> <h3><em>how i'm feeling now</em> - Charli xcx (2020)</h3> <p><em>Brat</em> was my top album this year in a surprise to no one, but there's probably nothing I can say about <em>Brat</em> that hasn't already been said. <em>HIFN</em>, on the other hand, is the other no-features hyperpop Charli album and I'm mentioning it now because think if you liked <em>Brat</em> you should give it a try (if you haven't already! I think it's gained popularity since I originally wrote this). It's a pandemic album with a slightly different vibe and in some ways it feels more vulnerable, but at the same time <em>pink diamond</em> goes harder than anything on <em>Brat</em> lol. Songs I love in particular are <em>party 4 u</em> (easily my fav from this album), <em>c2.0</em>, and the aforementioned <em>pink diamond</em>.</p> <img src="https://mews.neocities.org/images/posts/flow.jpg"/> <h3><em>Flow</em> - Onew (2024)</h3> <p>Meanwhile in SHINee World, we got solid solo albums from all the members in 2024, but I have to say I think I like Onew's the most! He came back with <em>Flow</em> after a long health-related hiatus and a change in record labels and I really feel like he's come into his own on this EP and it's a joy to see as a long-time fan tbh. Very cute and fun and chill.</p> <h2>Songs</h2> <p>Some honourable mentions that were not part of the albums above or <em>Brat</em> but I still loved:</p> <p> <ul> <li><strong>愛人錯過 (Somewhere in time)</strong> - AccuseFive</li> <li><strong>Always Wondered</strong> - Donatachi (feat. harvest)</li> <li><strong>Overnight</strong> - Maggie Rogers</li> <li><strong>Gone</strong> - Charli xcx (feat. Christine and the Queens)</li> <li><strong>Never Need Me</strong> - Rachel Chinouriri</li> </ul> </p> <h2>DJ Mixes</h2> <p>Ummm I just kinda want to shout out the fact that Apple Music has DJ stuff on it even if no one cares but me. This is very cool because I found out that it's easy for me to work and vibe to music that seamlessly transitions. I am possibly the world's biggest fan of Donatachi's DJ mixes but there are other cool ones too, I just need to find a good way to identify which ones have my brand of annoying electronic music in them.</p> <p>Here's the ones I was listening to most this year: <ul> <li><strong><a href="https://music.apple.com/us/album/donatachi-64-dj-mix/1666807381">donatachi 64</a></strong></li> <li><strong><a href="https://music.apple.com/us/album/donatachi-ascension-dj-mix/1764432342">Donatachi Ascension</a></strong></li> </ul> </p> https://mews.neocities.org/playlist/new-mewsic/winter-2025-26 2026-03-08T12:00:00Z mews

Thanks for subscribing to my RSS feed! Expand this entry for some more info about it...

<p>Hi, I'm mews! If you're reading this then it means you've decided to check out my RSS feed, so thanks for that! ^^ I am a big fan of RSS feeds and have been using them for a couple of years now in my quest to be more intentional with my internet use, and they've been really helpful. I wish I could convince everyone to use RSS, but I'll stick to doing what I can by making my own one! :P</p> <p>This feed is not going to be a comprehensive site update feed - it's going to be updated whenever I make/update a playlist or publish a new written post. (So, for the more major things.) If you're curious about more minor updates, I usually put these in the marquee at the top of the homepage.</p> <p>Hope you enjoy the music! :D</p>
