Your week in music (last.fm collages...)

My week

collage - 2022-11-29T073919.225.jpeg

I hadn't listened to that much music the other week. I now will shift my posting to late Monday /early Tuesday for the next weeks.
I've been enjoying the new Mylène Farmer album a lot. The songs she created with Woodkid have some cinematic, even symphonic flair and are a lot better than the ones she did with Moby on this record. I've also been enjoying many songs on the new Smashing Pumpkins and Taylor Swift album. Weyes Blood has been very good too. Apart from that some jazz and some Prince.

I’m on a journey to get the most out of the little sleep I get. I very much enjoy The Vernon spring… thanks @Ghost . I had a hankering for Beasties the other night. Hey Christmas. Pitchfork owns The Roches (which I adore) and Fievel. Lastly, Opus!

November:

Full disclosure, I ran this late, Richter should not be there… #16 would then be Qasim Naqui’s Two Centuries.

@Bull Shannon is right it is always interesting to compare Spotify to last.fm and I guess it would be fair to do that now…
Gonna do artist since they didn’t give us albums this year…

Don’t apologise, I’m not listening to it so it’s all gravy 😉

My week

CAC83E4B-2A7E-4657-AC43-E42C1DDBA1D3.jpeg

When I get into a new musical I tend to REALLY get into them so Six had an easy win this week and it probably won’t be leaving my chart for a while. Besides that my week was either Grammy noms and Mac for the most part. Add the two Alabama Shakes together they move up to third and Brandi Carlile’s “In These Silent Days” joins the chart

about about the two sets of two macs?
 
Week 49 recap:

2022Week49.jpg

Breakdown
Mostly spent the last week listening to favorites at work to reevaluate for my organization to construct my top50 for this year for the 2022 MEGALIST thread. However, the last four weeks overall was very busy for albums new to me.
Ones I would recommend are the new Weyes Blood, Julia Romana, and Fievel is Glauque. All are very art pop centric, with different subgenre tangents for each (baroque, R&B, and jazz respectively). If it had released earlier this year, Natalia LaFourcade's De Todas las Flores would be in my top10 of the year. Also feel much stronger on Utada's album from earlier this year after a revisit, enough for it to be a top50 inclusion.
I am not overly high on SZA's album drop from today on an initial listen; it seems like a random collection of songs where some are fantastic ("Good Days," "Gone Girl," and "Love Language" for sure), but other tracks are rather awkward ("F2F," the odd ODB sample choice in the closer "Forgiveless," in particular). It will get a few more plays for now, but I'm not seeing why this is being showered in unquestioned praise on the forum for now.
Also, I would avoid the new Phoenix record. CEO Trayle's mixtape was borderline unlistenable, why did this get PitchFork BNM?
