Another exciting year. We have seen the growth of recent talent into what will be significant voices of the future. And the continue leadership of the elders. We remember those who have shaped the scene and left us way too soon but what they've taught us lives on through us.
Below are some of the albums that have had a significant effect on me over the last year. In no real order except the first two because they would not stop playing on my stereo, ipod and inside my head.
I hope you get a chance to hear some of this amazing music over the next few months. And we all hope the music just keeps getting better and braver over the next year. Enjoy.
