Lists

As per December 10th 2022.

Missing:
MFMB - Sugar. They were at #15.
Holy Now - Dream of me. They were on #24.

AOTY 2023 per December 18th 2023.

Dull is missing, but I added it to MusicBrainz so should be able to update with them soon. They're at #15.

I listen to a lot of ambient (especially “dark ambient”), experimental, and (gentle) house music. A sizable portion of this is not yet on this platform. But I've added what I can.

As a holdover from my earlier days, I also listen to some hardcore, punk, post-punk, and indie. But most of what’s recommended here will be ambient/electronic or abstract/experimental.

I love to grab my Martin 000-28 acoustic guitar or my Fender Strat electric guitar and jam along to my favorite albums. These are some of the best albums for playing along.

A starting point into the world of Black Metal.

My everchanging list of new albums I have in my queue after Release Friday. Changes every Friday/Saturday.

Nuclear warheads ready to strike, the world is so fucked let’s end it tonight

Since the nuclear apocalypse is inevitable, I'm preparing the soundtrack in advance for those moments and people I won't be around.

Ambient music, made using guitars/lap steels, that evokes deserts and diners.

Discos a los que siempre acabo volviendo, discos que nunca se van, discos que estimo más que a muchas personas.

Everything I listened to in March 2024 (that I could find on here).

Something triggered me to realise that western music was already quite pale to my ear. That's when I started looking for new things. These improvisations are bolder and wilder than the winds themselves.

BONUS: 📻 24h+ Spotify playlist

Every album I've listened to this month (that I could find on here, at least).

I genuinely love every one of these albums.

My best 'hot takes' are the placement of With The Beatles and Rubber Soul. You're welcome to disagree, and these rankings are subject to change :).

1-3 are incredibly close as they're all perfect albums in my opinion. 4-10 are also close, I rearranged them a few times just while making the list.

"man, what a year for death metal. If 2022 was the year of hardcore (it was), 2023 is the year of death metal (it is). So many good albums this year. I left off a ton of amazing death metal records this year. It was an insane year for the genre. Hope you enjoy my list, there is even a non-metal album on it!"
