Top 10 Things I Heard in 2019


Yes mate, here's my top 10 things I heard in 2019. Just like in all the other editions of my end-of-year list, it ain't all new releases. Instead, it's things I heard for the first time in 2019, no matter when they were released. And even that is nonsense, as I definitely heard one of these tracks before 2019, it just took on greater significance this year.

So in no particular order, so here we go...

1. Metronomy at Bristol 02 Academy, in particular, the duelling synths during Lying Low


2. Pretty much everything off Igor by Tyler, the Creator


3. Aphex Twin - Rhubarb orc. 19.53 rev [unrev mono edit]


4. The Beta Band - Dry The Rain


5. Blanck Mass' latest album Animated Violence Mild (and his Clwb Ifor Bach show was tidy too)


6. Virna Lindt - Intelligence


7. Spacemen 3 - Amen


8. Shanti Celeste - Aqua Block



9. TNGHT - II
Can't decide between DOLLAZ and Gimme Summn, but as they're off the same EP, I might as well whack it all in.


10. Dire, Dire Docks from Super Mario 64, as featured in Teki Latex's Boiler Room mix
