this song really moves one. there is such a special depth in the song, in the writing and the music that accompanies it, one will feel like they're in a world ending moment. sometimes you don't even need to experience proper romantic heartbreak with such a song, sometimes life itself will feel so unethical to you that this will move you. fin~

this is one of my recent favorite songs, i think that it gives off the vibe of hanging out with your closest friends after school. it’s upbeat and rock, something i think james would really enjoy. i highly recommend :)

readers might enjoy "the song of achilles" for its beautiful writing, emotional storytelling, and unforgettable characters. it’s a fresh and deeply moving take on greek mythology, exploring love, friendship, fate, and sacrifice. personally, it completely broke my heart, in the most beautiful way, and left me thinking about the story long after i finished it.

koil & .feast, 2023

recommended for martin

this song mixes industrial rock with electronic elements, with sharp guitar sounds and energetic drums. the lyrics use imagery like “the end of the world” and “hell” as a social critique of our obsession with social media and how dependent people have become on the internet. for some reason, i just feel like this song really fits martin’s vibe!

kuru, 2026

recommended for all of cortis

it has a really ear-catching beat and song’s composition. it has electronic breakbeat and hits with the digicore/hyperpop atmosphere song.

the word "panacea" (or panasea in indonesia) itself means a remedy or cure for all diseases means. the lyrics express that true love remains unchanged even when distance separates two people. this song has a really deep meaning and poetic lyric, also completed with the slow pace instruments.

this song means deeply for you who works so hard all day. the lyric actually really poetic in indonesian language. tells about someone who exhausted after work, and their weekend turns into a tired escape room where they can’t really enjoy. it describe how work can consume us so much. i deff recommend they listen!!

martins production on his own music reminds me a lot of artists including lucy bedroque, slayr and prettifun and i think this ep encapsulates that sound in a fun and unique way that i think he will defo enjoy!!

the jeblogs “sambutlah” instrument and the lyric with the goated metaphor just really fits him. it gave a lot of energy especially when i listened to it. absolutely recommend!!

club 8, 2001

recommended for all of cortis

i think they might enjoy its dreamy, slightly bittersweet sound and the contrast between the soft, nostalgic melody and more melancholic lyrics. since cortis seems to enjoy experimenting with different genres and sounds, this kind of atmospheric indie pop could be interesting for them, and club 8’s discography is worth checking out too.

this underhyped album genuinely gives me completely positive vibes for absolutely no reason. it captures the meaningful, fleeting transition period between childhood and adulthood. most of the songs on this album sound "similar" but all carry different meanings. the song "지끈지끈" is my favourite!

it’s a post-punk track that is upbeat with meaning.

the way the rap parts in the verses of this song complement the vocals in the chorus is just majestic (like martin ofc). idk why, i just think lover boy martin will enjoy this song <3

the english system, 2002

recommended for all of cortis

i think cortis would really like this because it feels like color in sound, hazy, nostalgic, dreamy, and somehow sad but warm at the same time. even though it’s from 2002, it feels timeless and has that diy bedroom feel that matches how they create things themselves; it feels very color outside the lines.
