What if when it 100% done, they decide to bury it in one of their gardens saying that they only intended to record it, they wanted you to listen to it.

i don't know if you have noticed the difference between the #1 and the rest in term of overall points. it's impossible for the other albums to even come close to Channel Orange this year. this is why i called it album of the year by the critics so early (the today's update confirmed it).

my bad, I wasn't sure how many unpublished charts were yet to be incorporated.

You're the guy who thinks Funeral sucks, right?

No, I like Funeral, just don't think it's top 10 material.

I don't like Bruno Mars myself, or much of the other stuff on his album, but that single(locked out of heaven) is amazing(at least I really like it).

Nope. The singles that everybody knows from his last album were goddamn annoying, so I don't intend to hear his new album either!

Here is a free live Congos EP. So download it.

Here is a new Delfonics video. So watch it.

Here is a free DāM-FunK song, which was recorded for his excellent 2009 album Toeachizown but didn't make the cut due to it's length. So download it (and get the album, while you're at it).

And, finally, here is the Soundcloud of R'n'B singer Bago, who sounds like Erykah Badu but not so much so that it's annoying. Almost everything on the Soundcloud is available to download for free. So do that.

Merry Christmas. Enjoy.

I really like Lucifer, but it sounds like it's aimed at children. That's not a bad thing, just a thing.

Didn't 936 come out in 2011? Good stuff all the same..

Anyway, aside from acts everyone's heard of may I present to you the best thing to come out of Sweden since Zlatan Ibrahimovic's 35-yard goal via overhead kick vs. England. All hail the new queens of Scandinavian twee, the Garlands... as approved by BEA's committee on all things indie-pop (well, me and (TMFKA)MSS)...
