Pillowface Is Out!

Well I’ve had ample time to give Aoki’s CD a proper listen and I am very pleased with what I’ve been hearing. I’m not going to sit here and write out a full review or anything, but I have a couple of critiques.

The Bad:
In the first couple of songs it seems a bit overwhelming with all the vocals in parts that you’re not used to hearing them in. In the first seven songs, there are seven guest vocals, and in my opinion, thats too many considering the average length of the first seven songs is around 2:30 in length. Not every drop is out of place, just the first couple songs seem to be too jam packed.

The Good:
Beside the plethora of vocals in the beginning, its a smooth sailing mix. The mix starts off with a classic banger, “Refused – New Noise“, it’s the kind of track that you don’t hear everyday in a mix, which is refreshing to say the least. Pillowface & His Airplane Chronicles is the best mix CD I’ve heard in a while, and that’s no bullshit. Much like his live performance, Aoki’s mix is packed with high intensity, party fueling tracks.

Here are a couple of my favorites:
Green Velvet – Shake and Pop (w/ Kid Sister’s Guest Drop)
Datarock – Fa-Fa-Fa (w/ Steve Bays’ Guest Drop)
