Scaramouche Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 (edited) For me, it's been another great year of new artist and label discovery, with some excellent releases by staple artists. Special Shout Outs Tom Hall: discovered via WATMM and totally hooked (thank you @auxien) Failed Attempts at Silence is an amazing album Miho Hatori: Been picking up the Cibo Matto re-issues this year, so she'e been back on my radar. Between Isekai and Slice of Life is a kick ass album. Shame there isn't a physical release. Makes me want to go out and dance. Axis Records: Too much to keep up with, still working my way through the releases, but Jeroen Search's Alpha Centauri (thank you @brian trageskin), Jeff Mills + Rafael Leafar The Override Switch, and Shinedoe's The Observer have been standouts. Ishmael Cormack: Really like his music, reminds me at times of some of the 12k releases from Monocoastal/Taylor Deupree. Jeannine Schulz: Consistently releasing music the past few years, great drifting ambient/guitar and processed field recordings. Hope she gets picked up by some more established labels. Electronic Probably my favourite release on Raster Music since the label split. Never heard of him before, been making my way through his earlier albums. Field Recordings Nice Italian label with 6 releases under their belt. This piece by Alyssa Moxley was the standout this year. First physical release from this label, like the project idea of main release (sounds recorded from windows, unprocessed from around the world) Post-Punk/Dark Wave/Alternative I love this band.I'd love to hear them play live, solid post-punk without sounding derivative. (IMO)There's a really cool scene in Australia for punk/alt metal, picked up quite a few albums here and there, but Bitumen are becoming a firm fave. Saw these guys live in a nice little Church near Kings X, first gig in 3 years. Nice shoegaze stylings.

beerwolf Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 (edited) This is turning into a great thread. Solid effort and hard work put in. Last 3 years I’ve been looking into the past, enjoying all my old favourite records, listening to old records I never bought but had an eye on and delving into the back catalogues of artists I admire. It’s been thoroughly enjoyable and fascinating, but I’ve cast aside my interest in new music, almost entirely. I couldn’t do both. Maybe next year I’ll be more switched onto new music, because otherwise I might have to change my name to Dad Rock Beer Wolf. And I can’t be having that Edited December 22, 2021 by beerwolf 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toaoaoad Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Just found out Dictaphone put out a new album earlier this year, I don't think anyone has mentioned yet. Their stuff is pretty consistent. Worth checking out if you don't know them (and Oliver Doerell's other projects too). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beerwolf Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 Melon has posted up his best albums and singles of the year. I’m sure he usually posts up some fresh ‘Best to Worst’ (which I really enjoy) and ‘classics’ reviews this time of year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
