LOLICORE PIANO CONCERT by Akamushi: A Chaotic Love Letter to Breakcore Freaks
Alright, let’s get this straight—Akamushi’s LOLICORE PIANO CONCERT isn’t for the faint-hearted. If you’re out here looking for some chill beats to vibe with your oat milk latte, turn back now. This self-released beast of an album slaps harder than your ex’s “it’s not you, it’s me” speech. It’s electronic madness wrapped in a bow made of shattered glass and screaming synths. The dude dives headfirst into Breakcore, Breaks, and even throws Modern Classical into the blender just cuz he can. And somehow? Somehow it works.
First up, we gotta talk about ♥SONATA FOR KONPAKU YOUMU♥, which is hands down one of those tracks that’ll stick to your brain like gum on a hot sidewalk. You know when something feels so wrong but also kinda right? That’s this song. It starts off all elegant, like someone practicing scales at 3 AM while their neighbors contemplate murder. But then BAM—it flips into breakcore chaos faster than you can say “what the hell am I listening to?” The piano lines are sharp enough to cut steel, but there’s this weird melancholy undertone that sneaks up on ya. Like yeah, sure, destroy my eardrums—but make me feel things while doing it. Akamushi doesn’t hold back; he’s playing tug-of-war between beauty and brutality, and honestly? I don’t wanna pick sides.
Then there’s ♥SPEED LOL♥, because how could you NOT remember a track with a name like that? This thing hits like a sugar rush mixed with caffeine poisoning. Imagine being chased through a neon-lit cityscape by glitchy robots armed with drum machines. Yeah, it’s exactly as chaotic as it sounds. The tempo shifts are wild—you think you’ve got a handle on it, then BOOM, another layer of insanity gets piled on top. By the time it ends, you’re either gasping for air or hitting replay because your dopamine receptors haven’t caught up yet.
The rest of the album keeps the energy cranked to eleven. Tracks like ♥LOLI LULLABY♥ and ♥NIGHTMARE♥ show off Akamushi’s knack for blending cute vibes with sheer auditory violence. It’s like he took everything you thought you knew about music and threw it into a woodchipper set to "extra fine."
So yeah, LOLICORE PIANO CONCERT ain’t perfect, but who cares? Perfection’s boring anyway. What makes this album unforgettable is its refusal to play nice. It’s messy, loud, and unapologetically itself—and honestly, isn’t that what art’s supposed to be?
Here’s the kicker though: after listening to this chaos-fest, I found myself wondering…does Akamushi sleep? Like, ever? Because if he does, I guarantee his dreams sound exactly like this album.
