The holidays are in full swing and it’s about time for us to start sharing our end-of-year lists with you. It’s been really hard this year, as always, but I’ve probably listened to more music in 2024 than I have in the last five years at least. We’ve written about 750 records this year, spanning many different genres. But as usual, the lists will be divided into postpunk/experimental and electronic/dance. First up is postpunk & experimental, in the shortform format (call it EP, 12” or whatever you want).
