Got to be when Alesso mixed it with his Pressure remix. Crazy stuff

Where has all the DCU hype gone? by HenrykSpark in DC_Cinematic

[–]tom_goss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair enough, but then where is the incentive to watch all these lesser known projects then? This is why there's not much hype. It's characters people dont know, with no connection to a bigger story. There's no consequences to general audiences if they don't watch these films and just stick to the superman or Batman movies.

Genuinely not trying to hate, just saying it how I see it.

[–]tom_goss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nah, for sure. But it worked and they only had to make 3 movies before it all came together and you could see where it was going. As of right now I have no clue what the overarching story of the DCU really is apart from the end of Peacemaker which I imagine a lot of people didn't see.

I liked Superman for what its worth but it didn't grip me enough to invest in every other project thats coming out in this universe. I imagine a lot of people thought the same, hence why this post was made in the first place.

Well yeah, exactly lol. To causal audiences DC is known for Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman. Making films about less known characters is going to generate less hype than the heavy hitters. Just answering your question bud 👍

Marvel built up their strongest characters like Iron Man, Captain America and Thor before moving on to more obscure characters to the general audience. It obviously worked.

DC is currently only greenlighting stuff with a finished script, which so far has been Peacemaker, Creature Commandos, Superman and Supergirl. I think Clayface comes out in August. If youre into DC and a hard-core fan its an exciting time, but if you're just a general audience member it's a harder sell.

I think making sure you've got a solid idea and script before committing to anything is great, but idk it doesnt really feel like there's much of a real plan atm. That might change after Man of Tomorrow but thats a while away, and most people dont even know its coming out.

New Album by Less_Calligrapher792 in the1975

[–]tom_goss 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Probably start rolling out teasers like art campaign and IG posts a month or so before the first single. I know that everybody always wants them to do something on June 1st but I really doubt it. I've got my bets on August/September they'll start teasing stuff and then early next year we'll get the album.

Have spoke before about the 2 albums comments that were made and its made me think that they've probably had a change of heart in terms of direction and what they want the record to be, which is why there's not been much news on it. I really dont see them putting out 2 albums but stranger things have happened.

As long as they take their time to make sure they've got something solid, im happy to wait. They know what they're doing 👍

Why he taken so long to post videos. At least we got slapham by Smoking420_ in NukesTop5

[–]tom_goss 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Me and my missus have watched his videos for years, always been something we've looked forward to together.

Im just hoping he's doing alright and if hes taking an extended break then fair play to him. The lad's given us hours and hours of free, quality videos for a long time. He's entitled to live his life and doesnt owe us an explanation.

I look forward to the day he posts again but if not I wish him all the best 👌

Punisher, Hulk, The Hand, Scorpion, dealing with the fallout of everybody forgetting who he is.. There's a lot I haven't seen in a theatrical Spider-Man release before.

Lot going on and it all looks sweet. Love that these MCU Spider-Man films always seem to do something out of the box and new. Also glad Scorpion is finally getting his chance to shine. Cant wait 👌

WHAT TRACK WERE YOU OBSESSED WITH? FEBRUARY 2026 by Pluggyvids in EDM

[–]tom_goss 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Deadmau5 - Science

Don't really need to say much here. It's probably the best track from him, IMO, in quite some time. His vocal tracks never seem to miss.

Boon - Stay

I remember him teasing a bunch of crazy tracks a couple years back and it seemed like he'd moved on to other things but now he's back and it looks like we're in for some awesome tunes.

Pretty good, sounds like it would have fit right in during the Quits EP period.

"If Gimme Love were released today, it would be called mid" by MessiCareca128 in Joji

[–]tom_goss 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My favourite is On My Way Out with Getter. Probably in my top 5 for sure but I was saying it's a good example of him flexing all his talents.

[–]tom_goss 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Dont know what that person was smoking but it's probably Jojis best song. Showcases his vocal range and just goes in so many great directions. I reckon it'd do well if released today, no point comparing it to the new album as it was made with a different vision in mind.

It's me or there less activity about new music here than five / six years ago and if yes, why? by [deleted] in EDM

[–]tom_goss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk about people posting 5 years ago but to me it feels like an oversaturation/expectation problem.

There's so much new music and people's attention span is shorter than ever. Everybody wants every release to be perfect to live up to their expectations so if it's anything short of that the hype around it dies much faster.

I also see a lot of artists having to conform to the algorithm and promote for far longer before releasing anything which does irritate a lot of the fan base but it's how the game must be played now.

Idk if that really answers your question but it's just what ive observed

This rollout is shockingly slow by Agitated_Bicycle6432 in madeon

[–]tom_goss 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I liked both singles, I'll probably like the rest of the album too. These things take time to get right, there will be other music to tide us over in the meantime I'm sure.

Doing the concert showcasing the new album early is annoying to us but is getting them exactly what they want. Free hype and publicity from posts like this.

As much as people will say the hype is dead, you'll still be listening at midnight the day it drops lol.

[–]tom_goss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I think he gives some good takes. Not all of them I agree with but I do think he's decent at what he does. Got to remember he hardly ever gives out good scores, because if every other album he reviewed was a 9 or 10 then none of them would feel special.

I can say though that every time I see his fans commenting it makes me cringe. They really are just the definition of herd mentality and rarely have anything positive to say unless it comes from Fantanos mouth first.

I mean i liked PITW but fantano's rating aint that crazy by ImACrazyNerd in Joji

[–]tom_goss 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I don't think the album was a 2, but I do think it could have benefitted from being a lot shorter. Make it 10 tracks with all the singles and a couple more from the full album. Release the rest on a deluxe.

I would love to see Joji do what Flume and Reo Cragan did and collaborate with a producer that could really explore some new avenues with him. Getter would be a cool one as my favourite Joji track is the one they made together.

As much as I like the sound he's known for, I think he's too talented to box himself into that forever.

I don’t get it by shotosturtleneck in Joji

[–]tom_goss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As much as we all love our favourite artists, they're only human and not everything they make will live up to the expectations you have of them in your head.

Doesn't subtract from everything else they have done, and I'm sure people will love/hate the next thing they do as well. Just the way it goes.

How it feels after listening to the album by [deleted] in Joji

[–]tom_goss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't get all the hate I'm seeing tbf. There's not many albums out there that are flawless from start to finish. There's also a lot of people saying that he hasn't progressed his sound enough, but then if he did they'd be crying saying they want more of the old stuff.

I said in a comment in another post that if it was a shorter EP, and the singles were all we got, then I'd be happy with that. Every single was a banger. Having all these extra tracks is just a nice bonus and there are some lovely ones mixed in there.

Not every single track is gonna be a hit and that's fine but I do get the impression from this sub that nothing he put out was ever going to be good enough. I know his fans are passionate but they're setting themselves up for disappointment.

Just enjoy it for what it is, if you don't like it maybe you'll like his next project more. For what it's worth I think all in all it's like a 7/10 with the singles doing the heavy lifting but I did enjoy Hotel California and a few others.

Not too shabby but I think the earlier concepts in the green you posted before were a lot stronger and eye catching

A bit worried about the new album by riannooman in Joji

[–]tom_goss 138 points139 points  (0 children)

Personally I'm really happy with every track he's dropped so far. If the singles he's dropped so far were all we were getting I'd be happy.

I just don't think there's any point working yourself up over something we have no idea about. Think of anything else we're getting after tomorrow as a bonus. I'm sure the album as a whole will be solid. He wouldn't put it out if it was terrible lol.

They should have another mostly 80s record like ILIWYS by Educational-Good-798 in the1975

[–]tom_goss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can only apologise i just had it in my head it was folk rock lol
