This is one of a series of compilations I've been making since 2004 (around the time of my birthday) featuring some of my favorite recent indie music. This year, for the first time, I did a second, less pop-oriented, compilation (this one), with avant-garde jazz, classical, rap, and other sounds. All songs from 2017. Cover image is by Lotte Reiniger from the Adventures of Prince Achmed.
The more pop-oriented comp is called Not Today Satan, also on Mixcloud.
Artists on this compilation include (in order):
1. Mike
2. Nicole Mitchell
3. Richard Dawson
4. Sam Amidon
5. House and Land
6. Les Filles de Illighadad
7. Armand Hammer (prod. August Fanon)
