Another part of my year-end retrospective playlists.

This would be the nite part of the collection. If you've ever had a wild nite, this may be familiar.

It starts normal enough, good Euro club jams, danceable but sort of dark. Then a little weirdness starts to get injected before a specific song I consider the tipping point into the full on weirdness of a great nite that's maybe gone sideways.

Every year I work on some playlists of tracks that came out in the year that I was really into.

I always intend it to be a jumping off point, if you like any of the tracks, you'll probably like jumping deeper into that artist.

But I also want the whole thing to flow nicely. So I usually have some kind of (very loose) theme.

This year I went for sort of a morning, day, nite idea. I'm still working on the morning and nite parts, but the day is done, ENJOY!!

5 years ago we got one of Homeboy Sandman's best albums, thanks in no small part to the production of the incredible Edan.

Homeboy Sandman has a sense of humor and intellect that comes through immensely on every album he does. This one here feels a little more fun but still has a layer of cleverness that only Homeboy Sand could pull off. And then Edan just brings the entire thing to an elevated sonic landscape.

I meant to post this one last week. This is a special one for me that released 25 years (and a week) ago. I found the album through Gran Turismo 2 (though I would've found it eventually anyway).

But this thing is a vibe heaven for me. The transition of the band into darker moods and electronic textures. I think it may have sounded weird at the time but might have just been ahead of its time because it's aged beautifully in my opinion.

I missed posting about the release of Rid of Me 30 years ago earlier this year in April but the 4-Track Demos release will do.

Rid of Me is an absolutely incredible, raw, in your face album. Hearing it stripped down to just Polly Jean and mostly her guitar really let's you focus on that true rawness that's seeping through the album.

New Kiefer today. I've been listening to this guy since I think pretty early in him releasing anything at all. He's really got killer vibes that mix some jazz piano with synths and hip hop-ish beats to make something pretty unique.

There's some great new releases today.

First off, Föllakzoid. They released the album V today and this is going to be a GREAT album for transitioning into fall and then winter. Very lowkey and pulsing for it's entire run. I've really grown to like this group over the past couple of years. They stay in a really satisfying pocket.

This one deserves more characters.

What a dense, difficult album. The beats are jagged and sharp but has a real groove along with it. And Aes himself might as well be described the same way, jagged and sharp and as in your face as he gets.

He's been one of my favorite artists to follow, even still. He keeps things fresh and pours himself into all his projects and is just straight up one of the best to ever do it.

All right so today was a pretty big day for releases across decades I guess. 20 years ago, we got Aesop Rock's weirdest album to date,...

All right so today was a pretty big day for releases across decades I guess. 20 years ago, we got Aesop Rock's weirdest album to date, Bazooka Tooth.

This was my introduction to Aesop Rock shortly after it came out and honestly, it was kind of my true introduction to hip hop, away from the radio hits and pop culture of it all...

Another great release today, this time 25 years ago. Mercury Rev I've loved for decades now, but I always leaned into their more psychedelic and warped music.

More recently, I really dug into Deserter's Songs and it all clicked for me. It's a huge twist on a singer/songwriter album, taken to a baroque pop sound with lush arrangements and just solid songwriting and storytelling.

Cocteau Twins are a more recent love of mine. Even though I've been listening to extremely related things for a long time. I just never really dipped my toe in seriously until about a year ago.

Every album of theirs is worth listening to and this one from 35 years ago today is no different. Uniquely gorgeous and lush atmosphere to their music. It can put you into a trance if you let it.

Happy 40th to a solid entry in the long history of Costello albums. Not one I put on all the time compared to others of his albums but only because there's just so much to choose from. And look at that smulder on the cover.

Another nice record store run. A classic PJ Harvey album and of course another Elvis Costello find. Turns out this Rid of Me pressing is an 'unofficial pressing' but still sounds great and is a cool white marble so I'm happy enough.

Thanks Rollin' Records Boise.

BIG DAY for a new release!! Blur are one of those legacy acts for me. I will never get tired of them no matter how long they keep things going and I'll always listen to anything past or present, if the mood strikes (which is often). The Ballad of Darren is a classic Blur album but seen through their most relaxed lens. This album is going to grow and grow on me I am sure.

20 years ago we got this party of an album from Th' Legendary Shack*Shakers (or whatever version of their name you choose). I found these guys late in their game by way of Duane Denison from Jesus Lizard, but man, there aren't many albums more fun than anything they do. Non-stop phsychobilly energy straight through.

5 years ago we got this beautiful ambient album from Laurel Halo. All of her work is really magnificent. I also highly recommend checking out her radio show on NTS (link below). If you're into her music, then you'll really love what she curates. It's exciting she just announced she's got a new album coming out soon.

Woo!! 10 years ago!! This album brings back endless memories of the beginning of my relationship with who now is my wife. Very special days. This album is about as smooth and catchy as they come, the production is tight as hell. At the time, the radio was littered with Get Lucky clones, but Mayer evolved into this sound so naturally, it put the rest to shame in my opinion.
