Hey Everyone,
Mix collections are still two months away, but thought I jump into the December year end playlist sweepstakes anyways.
As of today, December 5, 2012...in no particular order, these are my fifty favorite songs, limited to one per artist, of the year.
Lots that should be familiar to anyone who's been tracking the year end best lists (Japandroids, Frank Ocean, Fiona Apple, Grimes, Tame Impala), many who've done equally exceptional work this year but seem to be getting overlooked in the final tally (Dr. John, Allo' Darlin, Anais Mitchell, Low Cut Connie, Liars, Swans, Death Grips), and just some old-fashioned personal favorites (Menomena, Jimmy Cliff, Mark Lanegan).
But no matter how you break it down, there is much here to feast on.
Enjoy!
