Well hello again, everybody! Welcome to yet another installment of Album Collage Monthly!
Yes, April and its showers are now behind us. It was a sad month (Prince is gone) and joyous month (Oh shit, the sun!). Most importantly, for our purposes anyway, it was a month that afforded me lots of time to listen to music.
As you can see from the picture below, I covered a lot of bases this month. Some indie rock, some electronic stuff, some compilations.... Hell, variety's the spice of life.
As always, a yuuuuggggeee thank you to anybody who stopped by the blog this month. Extra yuuuuuggggeee thanks to anybody who listened to the show. Not to belabor the point, but I put a lot of time into the Flatbasset Radio podcast. It means a lot to me that somebody out there is giving it a shot.
(Speaking of which, if you'd like to catch up on the show, my Mixcloud page has every episode free to stream. My Archive page has every episode free to download with complete iTunes tags and everything).
On that note, let's get to this month's albums. Friendly reminder: One song = one play. Devata Daun's new album has 10 tracks on it, so every time I listened to it it registers as 10 "plays." These stats are all pulled from my Last.fm page, which you should definitely follow if you're certain you've checked out absolutely everything else on the internet.
