2021 Retrospective – 100 Discoveries, Obsessions and Moments + Listening Stats

Posted on January 4, 2022 by Very Warm

Since 2014, I’ve tried to keep track of songs that have impacted or defined my year (see all those posts tagged in the “Retrospective” section). The songs that I pull into this playlist are usually favorite discoveries of mine that blow my mind (and embarrass me occasionally, as in “why didn’t I listen to this sooner?” Lots of that in this post here), obsessions that I sink into like quicksand (usually new songs that come out that year) or more rarely, soundtracks to true moments that I’ll forever associate with said song.

Putting a bow on 2021’s Warm Visions list week with my final big piece: 100 of my favorite songs of the year. Doing this the same as the last few years, where I alphabetize 90 of my favorite songs and rank my top 10. There’s no way I can rank 100 songs. Continue reading →

Recommended Albums: February 2021

Posted on March 11, 2021 by Very Warm

I had a bit of difficulty picking 10 records to feature for February 2021. Not because there was a dearth in good music – more the opposite. Lots of high-profile indie releases finally hitting, as well as majorly-hyped newcomers cutting … Continue reading →

Listen: Cassandra Jenkins – “Hard Drive” [2021]

Posted on January 29, 2021 by Very Warm

You’ve probably already seen this song posted everywhere this year already, but this Cassandra Jenkins song “Hard Drive” is so great. Slowly building poetic narrative with some slick saxophone jazzing up the background. It’s vast and seemingly limitless. Can’t wait … Continue reading →
