2017 was a great year
for producer and artist Alicks.
He released a project
in March known as
Everything is Beautiful
and later released a lofi tape
under his a l e x moniker
known as Growing Up, Vol. 1.
To keep things moving
into 2018, and perhaps
because he knows that his music
sounds best in winter,
he released the 29 song
album 1997 last week,
making it the first
great album of 2018.
A handful of songs
have been previously released,
but most of these are new.
I need 20 more listens
to properly digest them all,
but I took a nap while
listening yesterday and woke up
feeling absurdly relaxed.
Not to be outdone,
Alicks has promised that
Growing Up, Vol. 2
from a l e x is also right
around the corner.
What did we do
to deserve all this Alicks?
