The XX – Coexist
Hands down my favourite and most listened to album of last year.
Here are the rest of the albums in no particular order. I’m not in the habit of writing about music I like. Best to just check the records out…I’ve included links to get previews and/or purchase.
Godspeed You! Black Emperor – Allelujah! Don’t Bend! Ascend! | Dead Can Dance – Anastasis | Django Django – S/T | Best Coast – Only place | Chelsea Wolfe – Unknown rooms | Clam Casino – Instrumental mix tape 2 | Crystal Castles – III | Frankie Rose – Interstellar | Ghosts – Night EP | Grimes – Visions | The Invisible – Rispah | Janka Nabay & the Bubu gang – En yah sah | The Liminanas – Crystal Anis | Make-Overs – Too much IV | Metric – Synthetica | Perfume Genius – Put your back N 2 it | Tamaryn – Tender new signs | Soap & Skin – Narrow | Sharon Van Etten – Tramp | Peaking Lights – Lucifer
Underground – Various 2CD — I compiled two CD compilations officially released in South Africa in 2012. Underground is a journey back to Johannesburg’s alternative clubs in the 80s & 90s.
70s Kicks – Various 2CD — Compiled for David Gresham Records / Rhino Records (Warner). A decent 70s compilation that wasn’t disco or commercial pop.
BEST of 2012 MIXES — Stream the 2012 Comedown Mix and 2012 Indie Mix on Mixcloud.
