Macroblank - 痛みの永遠 Review
Macroblank’s 痛みの永遠 is like taking a deep dive into manufactured nostalgia, but instead of sinking, you float—immersed in beautifully crafted, dreamy soundscapes that make you wonder if you’re in an old VHS tape or a meditative trance. It’s Barber Beats at its peak, pulling at your emotions with a blend of ambient textures and silky-smooth sampling of completely plundered songs.
The tracks flow effortlessly, each one a little reminder that simplicity, when done right, can be incredibly powerful. You’ve got those lovely hypnagogic moments that make you feel both in a trance but oddly centered—like you’re starring in your own retro movie, wandering neon-lit streets and contemplating life’s strange idiosyncrasies.
And let’s not forget the melancholy vibe, but don’t worry—it’s the kind of sadness you enjoy. It’s like watching a sunset fade away while you sip coffee, reflecting on past loves, missed trains, and maybe even that one time you accidentally sent a text to the wrong person that led to a strangely meaningful exchange.
Macroblank doesn’t hit you over the head with overproduction, because that’s just not what Barber Beats does. Instead, it gives you room to breathe, letting the atmospheric loops wash over you without too much predisposition towards the legality of aggressive copyright infringement. It’s moody, yes, but in a way that feels oddly comforting—like putting on a soft sweater that has a defunct corporate logo of something that will never exist again.
In short, 痛みの永遠 delivers an emotional experience that’s perfect for chilling out, getting introspective, or just in the background while you play Call of Duty. It’s got heart, it’s got soul, it’s got others people’s music, and best of all—it’s got those Vaporwave inspired beats that make everything feel just a little bit more profound, even if a bit artificial.
