Review by Karl Vaughan

Album Review: Black Were Slaves Of The White And White Slaves Of The Money by Zadig The Jasp Alright, buckle up, because this album is a wild ride through Vaporwave’s neon-lit labyrinth. Released in 2017 by the enigmatic Zadig The Jasp—a dude (or maybe dudette?) with ties to both France and Australia—this record feels like an acid trip curated by your conspiracy theorist uncle who just discovered Reddit. It’s got everything: existential dread, capitalist critique, cultural mashups, and enough glitchy synths to make your ears feel like they’ve been dipped in liquid chrome. Let’s talk tracks, shall we? First off, there’s "購入されるように作られた !" (which roughly translates to “Made To Be Bought!”). This one hits you over the head with its irony faster than a late-night infomercial for something you definitely don’t need but somehow want anyway. The chopped-up vocal samples are so hypnotic that I almost reached for my wallet before remembering I was broke. It's clever stuff, poking fun at consumerism while also sounding kinda... beautiful? Like, sure, capitalism might be eating our souls alive, but at least it sounds good doing it. Then there’s "アメリカ人、日本人、フランス人" ("Americans, Japanese, French"), which feels like a surreal United Nations summit held inside a broken karaoke machine. The track bounces between languages and moods so fast it’s dizzying—like trying to scroll TikTok while drunk. But somehow, it works. There’s this weird tension between chaos and harmony that makes you go, “Wait, am I listening to music or having an identity crisis?” Spoiler alert: probably both. The rest of the album keeps up the bizarre energy, tossing around titles like "世界を憎む" ("Hate The World") and "古い植物" ("Old Plants"). Honestly, some songs blur together after a while, but that’s part of the charm. You’re not supposed to dissect every second; you’re meant to let the whole thing wash over you like a wave of retro-futuristic nonsense. What sticks out most about Black Were Slaves… is how unapologetically messy it is. It doesn’t care if you “get” it—it’s more interested in making you feel uncomfortable, intrigued, amused, or all three at once. And honestly? That’s refreshing. In a world where algorithms shove bland playlists down our throats, here’s an album that refuses to play nice. Final thought: If this album were a person, it’d be that guy at parties who corners you to rant about Illuminati symbolism in Disney movies—but instead of rolling your eyes, you find yourself nodding along because he’s actually kind of brilliant. Or maybe insane. Either way, you won’t forget him anytime soon. So yeah, give this album a spin if you’re into music that challenges as much as it entertains. Just don’t blame me when you start questioning the nature of reality—or why you suddenly crave pixelated palm trees and VHS static.

Interesting fact about Album

Here’s something cool: The album *Black Were Slaves Of The White And White Slaves Of The Money* by Zadig The Jasp is a wild mix of electronic vibes and vaporwave aesthetics. Released in 2017, it’s a cross-cultural project tied to both France and Australia. What makes it stand out? The tracks have names in multiple languages—Japanese, French, Arabic, and more. It’s like a sonic journey through different cultures and ideas, all wrapped up in that dreamy, retro-futuristic vaporwave style. One track even repeats a symbol-heavy title twice, almost like a riddle. Definitely not your average album.
