Music from 2015 that I listened to and liked
--
I used to make these lists on Tumblr, but it’s the future now, so I’m using Medium. This is now where people talk about themselves as if they have important things to say.
In that vein, I present a random, alphabetical list of the albums that I listened to this year and really liked.
(Side note: I think this is the first year where every album on my list was available on Spotify, meaning this might be the first year in my adult/teenage life where I didn’t purchase a single physical piece of music.)
