{EDIT: don't miss Moonface With Sinai: Hearthbreaking Bravery}
Listened to far more podcasts than music this year, so I don't have nearly the scope I normally try for. 10+ through 3 are all superior pieces of work that I'll likely return to several times a year. 1 and 2 are all-timers for me, and have already integrated themselves nicely into my psyche, making themselves comfortably at home.
Honorable Mention- Big K.R.I.T.: 4 Eva N a Day
Runner-Up- .L.W.H.: CIA TV
10. Dustin Wong: Dreams Say, View, Create, Shadows Lead
9. Grimes: Visions
8. Emeralds: Just to Feel Anything
7. Mount Eerie: Ocean Roar/Clear Moon
6. Pallbearer: Sorrow and Extinction
5. Frank Ocean- Channel Orange
4. Spiritualized- Sweet Heart, Sweet Light
3. Baroness- Yellow & Green
It was a bit of a toss-up for the top spot, both were so clutch for me. But tie goes to the runner, which has to be the up-and-coming Bay Area MVP producers of FRIENDZONE
2. Dinosaur Jr.- I Bet on Sky
I would listen to this at 6 A.M. at work, and it put me in this beautiful autumn-afternoon-with-your-dog kind of headspace, a sort of submission to life, like a leaf floating downstream. Some days J. carries me.
1. FRIENDZONE- Collections 1
When anger and weariness threatened to engulf me, I turned to this FRIENDZONE release of their cloud-rap instrumental tracks. Cokemachineglow described it as sounding like angels playing soccer and they are dead right.
