“Year-End Mix” Archives

Tropical dub from Sweden, blistering post-rock, contemplative ambient jazz, emotional drones, an electronic journey through space, and more.

Featuring gloriously mopey ’80s pop, robotic heartbreak, shimmering dreampop, late night ambience, and the return of a music legend.

This year’s list spans from apocalyptic post-rock to black metal to EBM to psych-pop to synthpop.

Fifteen songs (plus ten honorable mentions) that stood out from the rest in 2011.

Listed in such a way as to make for a nice listening experience if you were to listen to them as an actual mix.

These are my favorite songs of 2009, the songs that stuck with me and continued to challenge, inspire, and entertain me throughout the months.

These are simply my favorite songs of the year, ones that never got old but continued to excite, challenge, and inspire.

In an attempt to continue the Christmas spirit just a few more days, I offer you a mix.
