    Ivy Insights

    The Night Clerk Radio: Haunted Music Reviews podcast is a fascinating exploration of Vaporwave and its subgenres. Hosted by Ross and Birk, it strikes a perfect balance between discussing the music and providing in-depth analysis. The hosts exhibit a deep understanding of the nuance behind Vaporwave, showcasing their knowledge, passion, and vocabulary on the subject. This expertise makes for an enjoyable listening experience as they delve into the complexities of each album with thought-provoking commentary and musical analysis. Their personal perspectives and added context enhance the understanding of the music being discussed. One standout recommendation from the podcast was Miles to Midnight album, which I never knew I needed but found exceptional.

    On the downside, as someone with a curious interest in Vaporwave but not fully committed, there were moments where the discussion shifted over my head. While it's not necessary for creators to cater solely to the lowest common denominator, it would be beneficial to ease listeners like myself into some of the more complex concepts. Additionally, I was surprised at the ratio of track samples to discussion. Although the topics are interesting, I would've loved to hear more of the actual music being reviewed.

    In conclusion, The Night Clerk Radio: Haunted Music Reviews podcast is worth a listen for fans of Ross and Birk or anyone with even a passing interest in Vaporwave. It's clear that they are still refining their show format and finding their stride, but overall it provides an engaging experience for those looking to explore this genre further.
