I've been thinking for a while about how to encapsulate my music taste of 2016, but I've come to realise that the past year I really stopped caring. I stopped caring about trying to categorise my taste or stay within one genre or strain of music and just like what I like. So my 2016 playlist is messy. It moves from Kate Bush to Drake to Mura Masa to Ariana Grande to Gaga to the indie bands I loved in year 8. I like classic bangers, electronic stuff, movie soundtracks and glittery hazey indie junk; but its a guarantee that I'll play Side To Side at least twice a day.
Some of my fave albums of the year-
I like it when you sleep, for you are so beautiful yet so unaware of it (amazing title) - The 1975
II - The Rose Affair
Leave Me Alone - Hinds
Gamble For A Rose - King Charles
So Long Forever - Palace
Swim Against The Tide - The Japanese House
Warm On A Cold Night - HONNE
Cleopatra - The Lumineers
Nothing's Real - Shura
Writings Of Blues And Yellows - Billie Marten
Kindly Now - Keaton Henson
22, A Million - Bon Iver
Lemonade - Beyonce
Anti - Rihanna
(Just the mention a few)
Some artists I obsessed over-
Her's
Banks
Nicki Minaj
Mura Masa
Sundara Karma
Nao
Bear's Den
Frank Ocean
Tame Impala
Lapsley
Flume
Classics like Joni Mitchell, Patti Smith, Stevie Nicks, Jeff Buckley, Janis Joplin (as always)
A playlist to summarise-
But in conclusion I think we can all agree that Work by Rihanna and Drake was hands down the greatest banger of the year. Amen.
