Amy’s 2012-2013 Music Highlights
I’ve been a lazy person with music, so instead of highlighting my favorite albums and songs of the past two years, I’ve only been doing single tracks [1][2]. I’ll just blame the industry, which has definitely focused on single-dropping (in the West) and EP-mini-dropping (in Asia). In the end, we always end up with two-three-part minis that are later released as one full-length album resulting of two releases of last year’s music with a new track.
The result? Albums are tricky now.
Anyway, since my computer’s internal hard disk got busted about two weeks ago, I found myself working on some key files that hadn’t been properly backed up, resulting in a loss of four months worth of music data that need to be -somehow- recovered. So I looked back to my 2013-2012 lists, hoping that I haven’t missed any.
Of course, by this time next year, the 2013 picks may have already been changed. As it usually happens with rushed End of the Year lists. Heck, your appreciation for an album may change one week to another, depending on your mood that day.
So here there are, 30 picks that right at this point of the year feel worth noting.
WARNING: Audio/Video and Playlist heavy.
30. Humming Urban Stereo – Sparkle
This one goes out to Giacomo for the introduction [1].
Though I did have the album a lot higher in my memory, it somehow slipped down to the bottom of the list.
If you like it, don’t forget to get it on iTunes.
i just found Your blog because Your name was attached to Tété’s. You are my new connection to finding great music. i was checking to see who else likes Tété. my wife may go on tour with him in the fall of 2015 when he will releases his new album. i wanted to find someone who could review her music. Your music selections were so good i got distracted and started exploring all the artist You like. It may break my bank.
Hi, Jonathan! Thanks for the message, and yes- music (and movies) generally break my bank account xD Tete’s music is amazing, if you guys get inspired with his style and passion for music, I would love checking out your EP :)
