Thank you all so much for taking part / voting! It was a close race, but I ended up listening to The Album by Project One, which was submitted by u/Moases92, u/Lorgokz, u/sardonyxdragoon and u/Hardstyle_Geri. This was the most upvoted one when I checked after 24 hours (although right now as I'm writing this it's a tie) and I gotta say I wasn't disappointed. This was a damn good album. First off I like that it starts with an intro. Idk, I just like when albums have one. It sets the mood, which this time it was sort of a sci-fi thing and I really enjoyed that aspect. So when the first song starts it kinda barfs in your face which kinda made me sceptical but by the song ended I knew it was going to be something good because it was pretty hype. I like that it's hard (duh it's in the name of the genre) but no really the bass kicks in your balls and it's awesome. But halfway through the first song there's some melodic, catchy tunes and pretty much every song here is built up this way. The formula is like, some bassy, drummy stuff in the beginning, which returns at the end to close it off and then in the middle there's a melodic funfair type music part. They don't really change up the formula but it works well so who cares as long as it sounds awesome. It made sure that the album was consistently good for the most part. It's rare that narration adds value to the album but this is one where it absolutely fits to the music. It does so much to the atmosphere so I'm glad they went with it. I guess I'll talk about some songs now. There's a great buildup on Fantasy Or Reality. That's pretty much all I wanted to say about that song but it's good nonetheless. There's an intro to the song and it slowly builds up towards the middle section and it pays off. My least favourite song was Best of Both Worlds, which is eeehhh, you know it's pretty weird and a little bit annoying. Just not my thing. It did get better by the end so I didn't hate it, but there was some better stuff here. The exact same thing can be said about The Story Unfolds. It's kinda strange in the beginning and end part. But the middle part gets quite good. Actually it gets pretty amazing. So for that reason I wouldn't call it a bad song and I liked it more than Best of Both Worlds but the rest of the song just kinda ruins it for me. My favourite song on the other hand was The Art of Creation. Nothing too obnoxious or even special about this song. It's just one that is really well done and uses the formula well. It's just great from start to finish so that's why I chose it as favourite but there were a lot of good ones to choose from. And The Zero Hour is a pretty good ending song but I don't get the rap section at the very end. Just felt out of place. But yeah overall I really enjoyed it. Definitely the best electronic album I've listened to in a while. I wouldn't call it the best ever but it's up there. Really strong songs and it works well together as an album so, in the end I couldn't ask for more, really. Songs I particularly liked: Life Beyond Earth, The World Is Yours, Fantasy Or Reality, Halfway There, The Art of Creation, It's a Sine, The Zero Hour Songs I wasn't crazy about: Best of Both Worlds, The Story Unfolds I just want to quickly mention that I've created a [Spotify playlist](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6UeVmURYhWyOVcT6yawRM3?si=664ec6d902dd4ac5) for this project, where I've added all of the albums I've so far listened to. Keep in mind that it's not a complete list, because not all of the albums were on Spotify, but most are there, so feel free to follow it if you want.
