  1. Bjork - Utopia
  2. The Horrors-V
  3. British Sea Power-Let the Dancers inherit the party
  4. Ariel Pink-Dedicated to Bobby Jameson
  5. Suzanne Sundfor-music for people in trouble

The two anthems that should have hit the zeitgest the year are BSP’s - Keep on Trying (and even Bad Bohemian) and The Horror’s - Something to remember me by.

Both should have been enormous hits. I"m honestly at a loss how people aren’t head over heels in love with that BSP album it’s been a tremendous source of joy for me this year.

  1. Love Potion - XXX
  1. PERTURBATOR - New Model
  1. マクロスMACROSS 82-99 - アイドル、さくら
  1. haircuts for men - keygen 成果物 [CD-R]
  1. Converge - The Dusk In Us

shouts to Action Bronson - Blue Chips 7000, and I’ve enjoyed Burial’s three releases this year loads too. This year has been heavy on the Bandcamp weird vapor techno, and my top 5 is four of the best releases I’ve heard so far.

Love Potion is a blurry, lovely sort of vaportrap record, PERTURBATOR was sort of synthwave, and has now mutated into metal darkwave, awesome stuff. Macross is the most fun record of the year, future anime disco style, and haircuts for men has gone chiptune!

Also there’s this new band Converge, I think they’ll really go places.

I think I might have to listen to your 2, 3 and 4, because my 1 and 2 are very likely to be the same as yours.

(but can I listen to a band called “Peaness”?)

#115

#116
