| Recent digs (prelude to AOTY list)
Yeah. I've been sitting here, just thinking about which albums that will make it to my AOTY list, but I seriously can't think of a top 10 that I feel pleased with. There has been SO SO SO many new releases this year that are at least a 3.5 that I just haven't had the time to get fully acquainted with, just because time, you know.
This list will have some of my favorite albums from this year, but it's gonna be a mixed bag, not just 2016, and not just things that will end up on my end-of-the-year list. | 1 | | Palmistry Pagan
Sadboi downtempo dancehall music for white people.//
A really cool album that i've been loving this year. It's borderline on not being able to be called dancehall, but it's just somewhere between that and all the PC music kind of thing. It's anyway so catchy and was my definitive 2016 summer album. For all you introverted guys just wanting to dance at home but not being all too stoked. Also, hearing a white british dude singing some sort of weird patois is also a highlight here haha. | 2 | | Post Malone Stoney
R&B/Pop/Trap.//
This album surprised me. I always saw Post as one of those autotuned trap rap dudes that just hopped on the bandwagon when it was popular. But this album actually has at least a couple of moments that are really memorable, emotional even. Probably not gonna get backed up on this opinion, but the song I Fall Apart sounds like the vocalist from Pianos Become The Teeth all of a sudden started singing R&B, he has the same shaky sad vibrato going on in a few places. | 3 | | Francis and the Lights Farewell, Starlite! | 4 | | Young Thug JEFFERY | 5 | | Funeral Suits Islands Apart | 6 | | LAMA Modanica | 7 | | Leonard Cohen You Want It Darker | 8 | | Lambchop FLOTUS | 9 | | Bon Iver 22, A Million | 10 | | All Tvvins IIVV | 11 | | Kero Kero Bonito Bonito Generation | 12 | | Agraph Equal | 13 | | Dave DK Val Maira | 14 | | The Japanese House Swim Against the Tide | 15 | | Ulrich Schnauss No Further Ahead Than Today | |
