"best reserved for those strictly contemplative moments, where the opportunity to dwell in environmental quiet becomes clouded by lingering distractions. It’s music for hopelessly sleepless nights that burst with anxiety and suspense, where it’s impossible to think clearly or channel your intentions into a cohesive pattern. Bohren provides the perfect escape hatch, where the burning resonance of plucked fibers coexists with the deadening thunk of minor keys. Within each rap of the snare lies an eternity, where the beat is pulled so far apart from itself that your body descends as some curdling melody swells beneath the surface, like a lonesome bubble sinking deeply into a pint of stout." - tinymixtapes
Wasn't my choice, but it's difficult to complain. This was one of the most consistently strong categories, with every album here being good. Even though it's probably the most conservative album of the bunch, I voted for Takuya Kuroda's effortlessly cool Rising Son, which was a staple of my musical diet for most of last year. Would definitely urge those who haven't already to check it out. _________________ 2021 in full effect. Come drop me some recs. Y'all know what I like.
