Suilen Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago After not doing this ever since the forum updated in 2017, I've decided that this year will be the year. I finally got my Spotify subscription back, and it was a perfect time to explore new music. It wasn't exactly a good year for mainstream releases, though. Not to name names, but I found plenty of them to be underwhelming and not my cup of tea. Khias, on the other hand, worked overtime and managed to make the year more colorful. And there were still a handful of successful artists who either had a breakthrough or surpassed their previous works. While it wasn't a bad year by any stretch of the imagination, I spent most of the time listening to old stuff, and it will be reflected in the throwback section. Some of them completely overshadow what was released this year. The bops were bopping, but would I put any of them in my all-time lists? Hmm. Anyway, I did my research (about 100 albums and EPs), and I'll be happy to share my findings. What to expect Khias from all over the world making pop and alternative music, k-pop, Japanese artists, some Ukrainian, Russian, French and Latin music, female rappers; the artists from the banner, obviously. I tried to stick to one artist per song rule, but two artists were so remarkable that they have 2 and 3 entries, respectively. What not to expect Gracie Abrams, Taylor Swift, men. The content Top 50 songs + 25 honorable mentions Top 12 albums + 8 honorable mentions Top 30 throwback songs (songs from the previous years, including 2023, that I discovered in 2024) A half-decade song list (more of a thought experiment) Misc stuff (the non-music media I liked this year, probably) Enjoy
