Rosy Overdrive Label Watch 2023
About a year ago, I made a blog post called “Rosy Overdrive Label Watch 2022“, in which I checked in on what a dozen of my favorite still-active labels had been up to during that year.

These playlistsContinue reading “The Playlist Archives: November 2018 (Part 1 of 2)”
My 100 Favorite Albums from 2020 (Part 1 of 4)
Congrats on randomly stumbling onto this list. All of these albums are worth a listen, but I’ve done you the courtesy of giving you a CliffsNotes version of all of them if you wanna be choosey. I will also note that I got a little better at doing this as I made it further along,Continue reading “My 100 Favorite Albums from 2020 (Part 1 of 4)”
