If Adult Swim blended Robot Chicken’s 15 minute episodes into a musical, I have a strong suspicion this EP would be the soundtrack.

The kid's music tag on Bandcamp is really something else. What can I say? I love this album whole-heartedly, it's funny, easy to digest, and not at all serious. Someone definitely got their hands on a midi keyboard for Christmas. It's entrancing and you know what, with the average length of a track being less than a minute, you can form your own opinion in less than five minutes.

Mary

This feels like unrestrained experimentation from the depths of the internet. Something a child growing up in the circus would make in a single night on garageband. Idk there’s something I love about this. Maybe it’s the fact that it takes absolutely no attention span or that it uses gimmicky tunes that my ears already know. Mostly it's because MIDIdiaper is on a level I aspire to reach, not giving a single shit and having fun doing it. PSA: pray this album doesn’t get in the hands of an actual child (its intended audience according to its bandcamp tag) in your stay-at-home vicinity.

Had a good laugh listening to this one, that said, the music feels way too tame considering the artwork and project name MIDI Diaper. I was expecting something funnier and far weirder. Like Mary said, it sounds like someone’s first foray into GarageBand.

Dillon

Yep, these are Honkers. They do in fact HONK. Is the track “Mulder” now my ringtone? Maybe. Is “Strong” way better than the song it is inspired by? Yes. Yes it is.

Great for a laugh but I do not see myself revisiting it on my own. The idea of putting it on and listening to it without anyone else around is a little depressing. I will however take every opportunity to turn it one whenever we are allowed to have parties again. I guess you could call this meme music even though just typing that made my skin crawl. There are many fun times to be had with the cute and strange covers of various television show themes, and pop tracks. If anything I said throughout my incoherent ramblings has peaked your interest go give it a listen.
