Flatbasset Radio's 25 Most Played Albums: October '16


Well hello everybody. Welcome to yet another edition of Album Collage Monthly!

Did you all have a nice Halloween? I didn't go out this year because I'm old and I enjoy sleeping, but thanks to the magic of social media I was able to see each and every one of your costumes. That's right! Every one of you! You all did an excellent job.

As is typically the case, this month only featured one episode of Flatbasset Radio and it came out two days ago. October is typically when business picks up and one of my jobs and this October did not disappoint. Unless you were looking forwards to more podcasts from me. In which case it was tremendously disappointing.

As always, super big thanks to anybody & everybody who checked out the show this month. I'm hoping to burn some physical copies of Ep. #87 and drop them off at Reverie, Cheapo, & The Electric Fetus, so keep your eyes peeled for those. I'm also more than willing to mail copies to anybody who asks for them. Just head over the Flatbasset Radio Facebook page and hit me up with your address. I can guarantee* you I won't sell your address to any sort of mass mailing company.

Let's get to the collage. As always, remember that every song listened to counts as a "play." Seems obvious, right? So, for example, that new Bon Iver album has 10 songs, meaning each time I listen to it all the way through it counts 10 "plays." As usual, all stats come from my Last.FM page. Give it a follow if you really want to stay up on what's getting the most plays around Planet New Basset.
