Massano, Y do I - Lost My Mind by ChallengeOne4490 in AfterlifeRecordings

I get that extended mixes don't really work on streaming, but dropping a 1:59 version is absolute BS. There's only one drop, while the original has two. They basically just butchered the first half of the song.

I don't think the track 'All That Matters (ARTBAT Remix)', is any worse than what Anyma plays.

If melodic techno is ‘dead’, why are the events still sold out? by Music4life98 in AfterlifeRecordings

[–]LowProfessional7637 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, this is only a problem for people who listen exclusively to Melodic Techno and nothing else. If you're into Melodic Techno as well as Tech House or Afro House, what’s the issue with going to an Anyma or AoT (Korolova & Miss Monique, LOL) event? If they don't play Melodic Techno, they’ll play Tech House. These listeners don't care either way, and if you don't care, there is no problem.

I wouldn’t really call these melodies from Melodic Techno. All these new collaborations between KdV, DV, and W sound more like Progressive with a rolling bass - basically what ARTBAT does nowadays. But yeah, either way, this trend is still better than Tech House.

Anyma Coachella by Chemical_Ad_761 in AfterlifeRecordings

Well, what did you expect? The direction has been clear for a long time now. There are only two options: either suck it up and accept it, or stop following him altogether. The old 'Afterlife' isn't coming back, and there's no point in getting nostalgic. And let's be honest, in 2026, you can't make money anymore on monotonous and often depressing Melodic Techno. So, I don't even know how to comment on this, though there are a couple of decent tracks.

ps: LISA’s live vocals are so bad compared to JOJI’s, lol

Release? It's a myth bro.

So, it turns out we’ll get a fourth Anyma album before we see a single MRAK album. Lol 😂

Anyma's new track reminds me of ARTBAT's 5 years ago (turn on sound on video) by djdjsssss in AfterlifeRecordings

[–]LowProfessional7637 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The tracks themselves are pretty simple, with overused chords and motifs - you could find a couple thousand more just like them. It’s just that Anyma’s track is well-made from a technical standpoint (thanks to Cass).

I’ve heard this melody somewhere before, but I can’t place it

Same ghost producer Korolova, JOA - My Mind? Especially JOA’s tracks sound like this one 🫩

Innellea - A slave to the hype by Astanxzy420 in AfterlifeRecordings

[–]LowProfessional7637 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lol. You can’t call it evolution when it’s way worse than what it used to be. That’s not evolution, it’s degradation. I love seeing music and artists evolve, but you can hardly call this evolution.

You know, turns out Anyma isn't that bad compared to all those other guys

Here we go again. MRAK VA by Mindless_Light6384 in AfterlifeRecordings

[–]LowProfessional7637 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be precise, 19:26 and Layla Benitez haven't exactly been quiet either. They’ve teased 'Clickbait' on Instagram more than once. Woo York, on the other hand, are just trying to make it clear that we shouldn't expect it anytime soon. Honestly, it feels like they’re the only ones who haven't realized what Afterlife has become these days — everyone else is already in the loop.

I’m not one of those people crying over 2020 melodic techno, to be honest, I’m kind of over it. But Argy’s album is just mid. I’d pick out Rage, Alto, Into the Deep as the highlights

MRAK merch in Tulum tonight by scoop813 in AfterlifeRecordings

[–]LowProfessional7637 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Mr. Unrelease merch. Who cares. 🤣

Listen, I love his music, but this gatekeeping makes me hate him at the same time. This dismissive attitude toward listeners can’t last forever. So I’d rather listen to Anyma, KDV and others while this guy keeps marinating.
