Music in 2023

In 2023 I averaged listening to 41 songs a day for a grand total of 15.231 which is down from my last year total of 17,672. I’m sure if I discovered Zach Bryan sooner it would have been higher.

Favorite Albums of 2022

10. Drink the River

Solid song writing and one of my favorite folk/country albums of the year.

9. Did you know that there’s a tunnel under Ocean Blvd

Lana Del Rey has always been one of my favorites but I didn’t click with this album initially. Upon listening to it again later it’s actually one of her better albums.

8. Fountain Baby

This album is goofy but I really enjoy it well except for the bits about astrology which is just stupid.

7. Playing Robots Into Heaven

This album feels like the most musical you can make a eurorack system. Some really interesting rhythms.

6. That! Feels Good!

Disco pop is still in and when it is this good I am glad it is. This album has very catchy songs with a lot of dynamics in the mixing which I appreciate.

5. 10,000 gecs

I am not writing out ten thousand gecs this time. That is too much. I wasn’t as big of a fan on first listen to this album as I was with 1,000 gecs but on further listens it’s grown on me.

4. Again

This album feels like a return to roots but in a way that is still fresh and exciting.

3. The Loveliest Time

Once again I prefer the B sides to CRJ’s A side album.

2. I/O

Releasing two differently mixed versions of the same album is neat. I prefer the bright mix. This album is such a joy to listen to.

1. Zach Bryan

I think the amount of times I listened to this album is a clear indicator of how much I like it. The song writing is up there with any country musician and the music is great too. What more can you ask for?
