There’s a troubling trend in music production that I thought had run its course. Artists, and especially producers, are severely limiting their range – dynamics, tempo, expression, sound. It’s made for some respectable but bland albums.
BUT there are nearly as many artists doing the OPPOSITE. And I have a whole bunch of examples of both.
I do quick takes of OVER 30 albums – most released this year. They run the range from new rock (My New Band Believe) to stalwarts (McCartney & the Stones) to dance (Robyn) to pop (BTS) to hip hop (Tierra Whack) and wayyyyy more. You won’t find a review collection as eclectic as this – except for the other seven Quick Takes I did!
As always, I add my favorite tracks to my annual playlist, which you can check out here:
Did you listen to any of these? Were any your favorites? Do you like how eclectic the selections were? Did you discover something you now love? Did I leave out some you wish I’d covered? Are you able to keep current with your listening? Discuss dammit!
