One EP in there, but itā€™s SO GOOD!

looking at my post in April, I would like to add the following:

Elder
Happyness
Feist
Moon Duo (vol 1)

Iā€™m notoriously bad at keeping up (still listening to many from 2016) but the Jane Weaver one is great.

I very much like the labeling under each of the album covers! Really very helpful to someone like me, who rarely takes much note of an albumā€™s cover. I am also particularly lazy and techno-phobic. So, thank you.:grinning:

Not much has grabbed me this year - I think maybe because Iā€™ve got a new job where I canā€™t really listen to much music anymore.

Anyway, stand outs for me are Kendrick, Blanck Mass and Vince Staples

Thought that Jens album was far too twee and cloying (loved the last album and kortadella/oh youā€™re so silentā€¦)
