I'm listening to Omega Sapien's album now and it's such a satisfying trip. The indie-edm 'Asian Prince'.

Huge surprise at the end of last year. Been saying that Balming Tiger, who Mudd the student is part of, are the Kpop equivalent of the Butthole Surfers: this takes us further into that zone. How Locust Abortion Technician would sound with the tech that is casually available now, and a keen understanding of the mechanics of shoegaze without imitating it as a retroactive project. Sort of album I would have wanted to make in my late 20s.

One of my fave (and most unexpected) collabs of 2025. This whole vibe, the masks, the commentary on inner and outer beauty, and the commodification of everything. So clever.
