Can't complain about this.

Kamasi Washington - The Epic (2015)

This guy's presence on Kendrick Lamar's To Pimp A Butterfly was the best thing about that album, and this solo outing is an amazing retrospective of sorts of 70's fusion and related styles. Will definitely be in my top tier for the year's end roundup.



The Alan Parsons Project - Gaudi (1987)

The thing that separates The Alan Parsons Project from so many other "classic" artists was Alan Parsons and Eric Woolfson's insane level of professionalism from album to album regardless of the musicians involved or album concept: even their most commercial stuff has a classiness about it that's only rivaled by Steely Dan. This particular outing was the last official album released under the APP moniker, but having spent some time with it I think its right up there with their best material (like Eye In The Sky or Tales Of Mystery & Imagination). And a there are a few cuts in particular, such as Too Late' and the Dire Straits-ish 'Money Talks', that are pure radio gold for the late 80's. Very fun.

Agree with To Pimp A Butterfly. Also agree with top tier stuff, I'd actually give it my AOTY so far

The middle part is basically 5 stars. The other two are okay.

Current 93 - Soft Black Stars

I listened to this a couple months ago and thought it was good/alright. I listened to it today and it sounds like one of the most beautiful albums I've ever heard.

It grows on you like a hipster mustache in Williamsburg.

Jon Hopkins - Immunity

It was only a matter of time before I'd come back to this album. One of my favorite electronica albums of the last decade.

Anyone a fan of At The Drive-In or the great splash of post-hardcore/punk in the noughties, this is for you. Also I guess Frank Turner's the singer, I've never heard his solo stuff but he yells my face clean off
