I don’t particularly like doing best of lists but I felt the need to make up for my slack around here lately, hence this mix. Basically it’s songs that stood out for me during the year or represent albums I listened to a lot. It’s probably a bit inconclusive because a) I can’t remember everything I listened to and, b) I currently have a headache which gives me a free pass for not spending a lot of time compiling this. The mix is divided into two parts and consist of the following artists and tracks:
