Hater - You Tried
Lowly - Heba
Jens Lekman - Life Will See You Now
Kelly Lee Owens - Kelly Lee Ownes
Austra - Future Politics
You’ll Never Get To Heaven - Images
JFDR - Brazil

Been some great ones so far, here are my 10 most listened to (but not necessarily in the right order):

Ibibio Sound Machine - Uyai
Sinkane - Life and Livin’ It
Sacred Paws - Strike a Match
Moon Duo - Occult Architecture Vol.1
Cabbage - Young, Dumb an Full Off…
Vitalic - Voyager
Ed Dowie - The Uncle Sold

Kelly Lee Owens - Kelly Lee Owens
Francois and the Atlas Mountains - Solide Mirage

A little disappointed with Blanck Mass. Not sure what it is, but just don’t seem to be playing it as much as I thought I would.

Pissed Jeans - Why Love Now

Either Priests ‘Nothing Feels Natural’ or Allison Crutchfield’s ‘Tourist in This Town’. Still checking out a number of March’s releases though.

Julie Byrne
Said at the time I’d be perfectly content if this wound up being my album of the year, and my opinion of it has only grown since then.
