Vylet Pony - Love & Ponystep (2025)


Love & Ponystep is a maximalist, post-ironic journey through early-2010s rave culture—packed with dubstep growls, hyperpop energy, video game soundbites, and absurd humor. It layers high-concept narrative across its three-chapter structure, transforming internet-era kitsch into a surprisingly heartfelt mediation on self-love after a breakup. Tracks like “Walking Beside a Dragonfly” bring genuine emotional depth, even drawing tears amid the chaos. The production is elaborately textured—each long-form track evolves with cinematic flair—yet remains fun and chaotic. The album's self-aware embrace of meme culture, Call of Duty quotes, and Skrillex-style drops never undermines its sincerity; instead, it anchors a unique pop-art story. Overall, Love & Ponystep is Vylet Pony’s most ambitious and genre-defying statement yet—silly, grand, and deeply moving.

Oddleaf - Where Ideal and Denial Collide (2024)

Oddleaf’s debut album, Where Ideal and Denial Collide , is a fresh entry in progressive rock, combining lush, symphonic elements with retro influences from bands like Camel and Renaissance. The album, produced and recorded with exceptional attention to sonic detail, explores themes of environmentalism and human disconnection from nature, creating a rich narrative across its six tracks. Musically, the album mixes haunting flute lines, Mellotron textures, and dynamic shifts between electric and acoustic instrumentation, with standout vocals from Adeline Gurtner that are both emotive and ethereal. Tracks like “Life” and “Back in Time” balance infectious, vintage-inspired melodies with introspective lyrics, giving the album a timeless yet urgent feel. This blend of pastoral and dark themes marks Where Ideal and Denial Collide as a promising and inventive contribution to the prog scene​ The PROG Mind   Prog Rock Central   Prog Rock Central .
