Day 13: “I need a unit to sample and hold” Panda Bear -- Person Pitch

Day 12: “Live Music is Better, bumper stickers should be issued” Nina Simone — A Very Rare Evening It snowed in Mississippi yesterday (something I did NOT think I had to deal with when I moved here) and so “Scarecrows dressed in the latest styles/ With frozen faces to keep love away” hits a...

Day 9: “Jimi’s playin’ in the back room, Led Zeppelin on stage” Queen — A Night At The Opera

Day 8 -- "She Was An Unknown Legend In Her Time" Vagabon -- Vagabon I'm such a sucker for this Neo-Soul/Art Pop shit. S/o Vagabon, Moses, Tash, keshi, and the rest of these "genre-less/undefinable" artists. Yall rock and keep putting that stuff out there.

*catch-up* Day 7 -- "Only Love Can Break Your Heart" Swamp Dogg -- Love, Loss, & Auto-Tune "Lonely," "Sex w/ Your Ex," & "She's All Mind, All Mind" have really driven home loss in a fun way for me. Pretty sure this album is a masterpiece, too.

Day 6 (& 19) — LA (& protest) Kendrick Lamar — To Pimp A Butterfly Between “Alright,” “Wesley’s Theory,” and “Institutionalized,” felt today was an appropriate day to spin one of the most important rap albums of the last 20 years.

Day 5 — “Old Enough Now To Change Your Name” Frank Ocean — Endless It’s not a stage name, but our favorite recluse legally changed his name to Frank Ocean from Christopher Edwin Breaux. Love me some Frank and if someone wants to appreciate me for my frontline work this year and sell me...

*catch-up* Day 4 — “He Sleeps With Angels” Frightened Rabbit — Midnight Organ Fight I was first introduced to FR around 2008, and “The Twist” off of this album, while admittedly not the best song on the LP, will subsequently hold a special place in my heart. Devastated when Scott passed...

Santa, reveal yourself!!

I think Santa arrived? I for sure didn’t order these. Great picks by my mystery Santa who I can only assume is maybe @gaporter based on sender location, but otherwise have no clue. The Haul: 1) my 2nd Christmas album and first pre-89 rap, Christmas Rappin by Kurtis Blow. 2) the first Action...

*catch-up* Day 3 — “Hello Mr. Soul” Nina Simone — I Put A Spell On You Wish I could’ve spent all of #soulsunday listening to Nina instead of doing ICU work. Spinning her today made up for it though. Also this album contains the definitive version of “Feeling Good” and there’s absolutely no...

Day 2: “Well I dreamed I saw the silver spaceships flying in the yellow haze of the sun” John Williams — The Empire Strikes Back

Day 1: “Mellow My Mind” Bon Iver — 22, A Million hate being hungover, mostly because my main symptoms are uncontrollable anxiety, fatigue, and some slight depression. Those rare days it happens, this album helps steady the mind and focus on feeling good.

In point order (but not necessarily order of enjoyment) (15) Moses Sumney -- Græ (15) Andy Schauf -- Neon Skyline (15) Perfume Genius -- Set My Heart on Fire, Immediately (10) Juice WRLD -- Legends Never Die (8) Sufjan -- The Ascension (8) Fleet Foxes -- Shore (8) Run The Jewels -- RTJ4 (5)...

Absolutely no problem my man. I see my Christmas luck hasn’t run out, as it made it there before the day! Enjoy!
