| Omaha's Jan. 2014 Jams
The albums, and accompanying songs, I've been spinning the most lately. | | 1 |  | Bonobo
The North Borders
Great vibes all around. Highlight: Know You | | 2 |  | Burial
Rival Dealer
Most accessible Burial release? Maybe, but that sure isn't a bad thing. Highlight: Rival
Dealer | | 3 |  | Baths
Obsidian
I will never not be listening to this. Highlight: Ossuary (as of right now) | | 4 |  | Gold Panda
Half Of Where You Live
Clearly flawed, and yet so fascinating. Highlight: Junk City II | | 5 |  | Chance The Rapper
Acid Rap
Only a few songs really work for me here, but when Chance strikes gold you'll be listening to
him on repeat. Highlight: Pusha Man | | 6 |  | Four Tet
There Is Love In You
It took me a long time to really enjoy this record, but it hit me hard the other day. Warm
and memorable house music done right. Highlight: She Likes To Fight (a real deviation from
the norm on the record, but the song's so heartfelt.) | | 7 |  | Childish Gambino
Because the Internet
This is the least bad Donald Glover's music has ever been, and it's a damned shame we
kinda have to look at him that way as a musician. The production's great here, though, and
some tracks in particular showcase his increasing finesse as a rapper. Highlight: The Worst
Guys | | 8 |  | Main Attrakionz
808s and Dark Grapes II
Squadda B, Clams Casino and Friendzone show up here to make some of the most
impressive cloud rap beats I've ever heard- they're almost good enough to convince me to
disregard the sometimes sloppy rapping on this record. Highlight: Bossalinis & Fooliyones
Pt. 2 | | 9 |  | Shpongle
Museum of Consciousness
Still haven't made it through this whole thing yet, but it's Shpongle, so of course it's great.
These guys always know how to ensnare the listener, and so far this record seems to live
true to that fact. | | 10 |  | Boards of Canada
Music Has the Right To Children
So nostalgic. Highlight: Rue the Whirl (so many favorites, but this one always gets me) | |

01.03.14 | yeah bonobo was my shit when it came out | Yuli
01.03.14 | It's def grown on me with time. It's a subtle record, but it pulls you in with more spins. | jdennis31
01.03.14 | I was going to listen to 7 but now I'm not because the internet said it was bad. | Yuli
01.03.14 | nah man, if anything i'd say most of it is forgettable. but check out World Star and see what you think:

01.03.14 | I agree pretty hard on Chance The Rapper. The album works but a lot of the songs don't if that makes sense. The songs that do work are great though. | jdennis31
01.03.14 | that was pretty cool, instrumental ending was great. Haven't listened to Gambino in a while, forgot how much i love his voice when he starts going high pitch | Brostep
01.03.14 | should really check four tet some more. got a dl code for MHTRTC the other day but still haven't listened to it in full | Yotimi
01.04.14 | Yeah 6 has grown to one of my faves of the decade | LilLioness
01.04.14 | ZOMG #9, ily Jacob! Also, were you the one who featured my list? |
